the first problem is the battery - as long as the voltage is under 3v - the computer won't recognize it.

i charge them normally with a modified navigation device - i solder 2 cables directly on the battery conracts and charge the battery. others are using a 9v battery and charge the ipod battery for a few seconds - the battery must be resoldered for that - otherwise the logic board will be toasted.

when the voltage is above 3v - the ipod will be recognized and will start charging

so i would try to charge the battery - but be careful - li-po cells are dangerous!

ps: if you know someone who owns a RC car/boat or plane - ask him to charge the battery - they should also use li-po cells and have the equipment to charge them

managed to get some charge into battery by desoldering and attaching it to an old modified nokia charger i had. it now has 3.7 volts and turns on to a white screen with a few grey vertical lines. nothing happens when i plug it into a computer what can anyone suggest my next step to take is.

the lcd is most likely dead - if it where only white it could be a "white screen of death" but the gry lines are pointing to a faulty lcd
