I’m modding the firmware of my iPod classic 5th gen to add a Bluetooth option in the menu settings

It’s still a work in progress but I’m too excited not to share. I wanted to add Bluetooth to my iPod classic 5th gen but wasn’t satisfied with the current solutions I want it to be as clean as possible. So I thought isn’t it possible to “vibe” mod the firmware with Claude to add menu options for Bluetooth and use the uart pins in the 30 pin connector to communicate with the module inside. Turns it its very much possible to do this and as of now I managed to add the menu options and I soldered wires directly to the motherboard and managed to send and receive data from my Mac to the iPod. Now I’m waiting for the Bluetooth module to come in to carry on with the project. I’ll keep you guys up to date
