Hp5555 ipaq won't start up. I get a quick flicker of white then nothing?

Your float adjustment is incorrect, asis your fast idle

Hard drive failed, replace it

did you try pluging into charger, my galaxy 2 if i run battery all the way down it wont do anything after it shuts down. at times i have had to plug in and wait sometimes 15-20 min before it will even flicker. hope it helps

Check batry terminals are secure & free from corosion, check security of earth strap to engine & main power wire on starter, if ok have the batry load tested to ensure it can perform under load as the starter needs a lot of current. Have you tried a jump start?

check your battery,or not clean battery terminals,or starter motor solenoid.

i just cried a river for you,
If I saw it in a garage sale for $1 id buy it and crush it so others
cant suffer like you, no really.
batteries inside both are gone, some are solder in too.

If your "OK" with a PDF version of your IPAQ device, you may view and/or download the IPAQ MANUAL from HP's website.

Copy the following and Paste it into your favorite web browser (FireFox, IE, Chrome, etc.)----

It will take you to a list of manuals for all the HP IPAQ models available. Click the link that corresponds to your specific iPaQ model and voila!!!!

To begin with, I'd have that battery load tested to see if it's any good. I've seen brand new batteries that were bad. It it checks OK, check all the connections that go to the battery. Be especially attentive to the smaller wires that attach to it. I've seen battery acid eat the wire out of the insulation leaving the insulation intact and the wire appeared fine. If the wire bends too easily, be suspect. If the wires have the "crimp on" connectors, make sure they're tight. Your problem sounds like a bad connection somewhere.

Good Luck

Hello,

I'm sorry but the HP Ipaq 55xx series store data on a volatile ram based memory. Unlike a nand flash (like usb sticks, memory cards etc) this memory will hold data only as long as it's powered on. If your main battery gets empty you should still be able to retain your files for some 10-20hrs with the backup battery (if it's ok itself and not depleted). After this time the power to the ram memory is cut off and all data is lost.
The problem you face is somewhat related to that backup battery, as it appears it's unable to do it's job and maintain the power to the ram memory at least some 10 hrs. You should have that battery replaced.

There is no way to recover the data from the ram memory as it is stored as an electric charge over some memory cells in the ram chips. When there is no power, these charges dissipate and the pattern is lost.

I'm sorry for having to give the bad news.
