Most likely you need to replace the battery. If it's still under warranty Sandisk will replace it. Otherwise you can buy a new one from their website. Here's the link. http://www.esend.com/sandisk/Products.aspx?Catalog=Sandisk&ProductID=SDAMX7-RBK-G10(Esend)# If the link doesn't work just go to www.sandisk.com and look under products, audio accessories. Looks like $19.99 plus shipping for a new battery.

EASY CELL PHONE BATTERY FIX!

MANY REVVL 2 Cellphone owners complain online and at the cellphone shop: My is BATTERY is "too weak", it's junk and "won't hold a charge". So your REVVL 2 battery may lasts just 6 hours before you need another charge!

This post tells you WHY! The REVVL 2 PHONE FIRMWARE is the problem... Most of us charge away until the REVVL 2 shows "100% charge", but IN FACT, your REVVL CONTINUES to CHARGE at about .75 AMPS (stock charger)... Folks, that's 750 milliamps and your battery is still ready for more, but we are deceived by that 100% on the phone display!

Ya, they could fix that with the next "update", but don't hold your breath for that.

Please know my REVVL 2 will continue to charge until the automatic charge rate tapers off to about .04 AMPS.Know this "truly full charge" takes almost 2 HOURS (or so) more!

DURING this additional 2 hours+, your REVVL 2 display continues to show "100%" charge, but the phone battery meter is simply calibrated wrong. Most of us LOOK for that 100% ~ then take our cellphone packing, but the batteries are actually UNDERCHARGED, so like you,I am soon going back to my chargers 'prematurely'.

Now after a FULL charge my battery lasts almost 2 1/2 full days!

How do I know? Go to eBay and hunt for: "USB Charger Doctor Red and Blue"VOLTAGE TESTER"... The kind you need looks like this:

red and blue-undefined-undefined-0_1.jpg

Don't buy the version with ONE METER because 'flashes back and forth' between Amps <> Volts again and again ~ it's very distracting and will drive you LOCO! This version takes just a glance to know WHEN your battery really IS charged!

Of course regulators within the charger and cell will prevent overcharging... but how fine to KNOW your REAL battery status and enjoy many more hours (and perhaps a day) between charges.

My battery takes upwards of 5 hours to charge sometimes which causes a lot of issues since I travel a lot from work via train (hour and a half commute each way). When my battery dies during the day, b

Honestly nothing. You'd be better off just buying a spare or two. That way you will always have one to use while the other charges. There is newer graphene battery tech coming out that charges in minutes, but it isn't ready for consumer products yet.

AFTER HALF HOUR MY BATTRIES ON MY MOBILITY SCOOTER SHOW GREEN

Could be - I would take the scooter or battery to a car store and they will load check the battery - That is, they will cause the battery to do work, and measure the voltage.
Measuring volts while the battery is at rest will indicate full voltage. That would be a flawed test.

The last 3 days, my battery lasts only a few hours. It used to last at least 15 hours

Battery and Usage under Settings will tell you exactly what is draining your battery. You should power your phone off for a few minutes every 2 or 3 days.

Also try letting the battery die completely, and charging up to full UNINTERUPTED. This will help the phone reset it's battery meter, which may be the problem.

Your next step would be to backup the phone, apps, and SD Card files, and perform a factory restore. Then reinstall your apps and replace your data.

If that fails, you may simply need to purchase a new battery.

Battery not running

Possible that whoever replaced your battery sent you the defective one back. Note the serial and model numbers on the battery, then request another one. When you receive the replacement, do a full recharge. Most new batteries come already half charged. Even in this state, take time to fully charge it (between 4 and 8 hours depending on the type and model). Then try running it on battery power. If the charge holds more than 2 hours on a new battery, youre good; less than an hour new, its defective. If after all of this still not resolved, request the company honor their warranty (usually a limited one year with purchase).
