I recently modded mine with the moonlit market Mod as well. I even picked the same color scheme you did! I was way too intimidated to try the usbc data mod as well. Not seeing any videos online really discouraged me. I was also planning on doing the wireless charging/ MagSafe mod but seeing you try was more than enough for me to hold off on that as well. Awesome video! Glad I watched
I've upgraded my 5.5 classic U2 edition from 30gb to 128gb and also added a 2000mah, and for the bluetooth I bought a bluetooth transmitter, and it's working flawlessly.
Thanks for insight. Great effort - I’m getting ready to try to upgrade and modernize my iPod as well. Thinking I’ll have to decide between either Bluetooth or Taptic Engine (not going the moonlit route) but appreciate the heads up on the soldering advice.
Thank you for making this video, the Classic Connect seems to be a bit too good to be true or at least it promises too much. I think making it so "thin" was a missed oportunity, but at the same time I am glad it exists and people are still modding iPods. I want al the functionality so much but soldering seems like a big risk and I guess I will pass on the Classic Connect for now, it is out of stock at the time, anyway. Thanks for making this video!
In regards to the Wolfson DAC it’s not necessarily better or worse than the Cirrus DAC in later models. It just has a warmer sound which some people prefer. The big draw card of the 5 and 5.5 gen iPods is they are way easier to open than the 6 and 7 gens.
Hey can you use rockbox with the moon mod? I was considering it but if you lose the rocker function, it kind of handcuffs the actual functionality. Was considering this, but it seems like it would be easier overall to just stick all the things I want into a mod and DIY. And come out cheaper.
Thanks. I was thinking to getting this and doing USB C sync soldering. I still might get one but will not do the sync soldering. I don’t want to brick my iPod. Once I since my whole library once I won’t sync much anyway. So usb c charging and Bluetooth is all I would really need. It is an easy way to add those features without modifying an original iPod back.
it’s been 4 years im still in deep hole of ipod classic restoration videos, great video thanks

Just in time for breakfast 🥞🥞
Nice video, keep tinkering!

Can you please make a video, on how to load movies and tv shows on iPod and how to format movies amd tv shows to fit into the iPod?
Great video, BTW!
I wanted to mod my switch oled. And also found out that electronics are a lot smaller irl.
I feel your pain
Yoo bro finally uploaded again lol
The Diggin The Greats guy kept bashing the algorythm, so the algorythm decided to put this in my feed to prove him wrong.
He's still right, though. 😅

Nio
Good algorithm
Can you one day do a ipod classic 7
I would love to, it's just a matter of money lol
This is a helpful video. I was contemplating soldering for syncing...but I can live with digging out the 30 pin connector to sync music now and then.

Fun project, great details, too much "um". :)
I would not get it because it's plastic.
congrats, you have a plastic ipod....
