Palm pilot battery won't hold a charge. Can I replace it?

Rechargeable batteries should last about 3 years. Always buy fresh batteries and see if you can get them with a higher mAh written in the specs. Buy from a battery company and not from somewhere like Amazon. This one is 1250 mAh.

If your battery does not hold charge, and you don't want to buy a replacement, then there is not much can do other than to keep using your laptop with the charger. All batteries have a time life span.

Try turning the Palm Treo off using a Soft Reset.

1. Save your work and close all active programs and games.
2. End wireless connectivity by holding down the red "End" button for 5 seconds.Take off the battery door cover.
3. Remove the battery from the Treo.
4. Press and hold down the red "End" button for five seconds to drain the memory.
5. Insert the battery back into the device and replace the battery door.
6. Wait for the Palm Powered logo screen to appear. The preferences screen will appear and prompt you to enter the time and date.

If you encounter data loss after a soft reset there is a serious hardware malfunction and your device must be serviced.

The rechargeable battery has reached the end of its life. You can get a new one for around $20 from several online suppliers.

try turning it on while its on the charger .. if that works then you might need a new battery .. if it doesnt then do a "reset" ... unscrew the top off the stylus and use it to push the reset button on the back (top center) ... if that doesnt get it going then you can do a hard reset but that will erase all your information (like telephone numbers and such) ... you do a hard reset by holding down the on/off button while pushing the reset .. if it works on the charger but quits when on battery then you need a new battery ..

Unfortunately Palm battery has a life cycle which is about 500 recharge after that will not charge well and will be end of its life. However you can replace the battery. Which can be obtained easily a 3.7V 700mA and above will work fine just make sure size will match

Yes, replacements can be purchased online, here is a link to the google search. Hope this helps.

How to perform a hard reset

1. If charging, disconnect your smartphone from its charger.
2. Take off the battery door, but don't take out the battery yet.
3. Press and hold Power/End .
4. While holding Power/End, remove the battery for approximately one second, then replace it while still holding Power/End.
5. When you see "Erase all data?" you can release Power/End. Press Up to confirm the hard reset.
6. If a language selection screen appears, pick the same language you use in your desktop software.

Hope this helps and have a Merry RamaHanuKwanzMas

Could be a malfunction with the power button.  Go to settings and make sure the sleep timer is set.  That will save your battery life.
