Hi Matthias, I'd be interested if you can work out any difference in USB charging or power drain. We certainly want the new bootloader to be as good as the old one.
USB bootloader mode in V5 NEVER works for some devices (mine included), but works fine for others - probably a timing issue, and maybe the same underlying problem that causes petur's woes? Either way, it's a royal pain. > So could LinusN tell us the revision so that we're able to have a look at > the differences to the previous version?

Linus is a very nice person (he fixed my unbricked, but broken H300), but I wouldn't expect his help - it's not trivial, as I understand it. > I think we should also have a (re)look at several flyspray patches > regarding the bootloader code, noticeably FS#3039 and FS#9202 > and also have a deeper look at some feature requests e.g. in FS#5504 or > FS#8085. I would rather keep the scope of this task just to "getting the current SVN bootloader functional". Once we've achieved that, patches and FRs will be usefuil, but until then I fear they will gather dust. (In fact, I stopped working on the RTC patch for this very reason.) pondlife
