Zimmeruski,
For a while I thought my click wheel had gone bonkers. I have a Frankenstein 5.5 with the tarkan SD card adaptor and pieces from two different units (both 5.5g).
I eventually copied my music off the machine, restored it in itunes, added rockbox back in, ran a special utility I needed to allow dual booting, and got things going again.
One thing I discovered is that to add files one needs to boot back into itunes, use the unit in disc mode, then reboot back to rockbox when ready to play new files that befuddle the stock os.
My click wheel returned to normal using that procedure.
Out of curiosity, does your pause switch work correctly? It is really easy to break the connector for that when you open the unit. That can cause issues I suspect.
Your mileage may vary.
I just put Rockbox back on the iPod. Click wheel not working there either - I suspect it must be a hardware thing. I can't tell if my pause button works at all. Unless you meant hold switch? It works just fine as far as I can tell... when it's on it doesn't reset, when it's off I can use the Menu+Select buttons to reset.
It's funny because I can soft reset until the cows come home, but once the software is fired up the Select button just suddenly stops working.
