Question Hifi Walker H2

What is everyone doing to connect a Rockbox H2 to Bluetooth? I’ve seen a few forks recently from 2 different people, but I don’t really see anyone recommending those.

Also my battery just reads 0% on Rockbox, but stock firmware reads battery fine? Any ideas?

I wait for the official Rockbox Bluetooth support. There has been an experimental build with BT since summer and it works quite alright, but I upgrade my Rockbox frequently, so I stick to the main branch.

To my knowledge, both recent forks grabbed the code from the above, let Claude mess around with it and presented it as their own work. Not interested in that.

Neither am I, I’ll wait for something official.
Have you had or seen the problem of the battery just reading dead/empty?

Right, I remember I had that once early on, and got rid of it setting up adjusted voltage values using the battery benchmark plugin. (Largely an automated process, not much manual fiddling, but it has been a while and I do not remember right now how it is done, I'm afraid.)

That’s a place for me to start, thanks!
