SOURCE: Shows Li-On battery charged when plugged into AC, shuts down when unplugged

Here is a palm article on the battery not holding charge-

http://kb.palm.com/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBCGI.EXE/,/
?St=42,E=0000000000826384196,K=1280,Sxi=19,Case=Obj(30029)

My battery loses its charge very quickly

Like all Lithium Ion batteries, the battery in your device will eventually wear out. If you charge your device fully but it loses power after a few hours (or sooner), it may be time to replace the internal battery.

Sounds like you already did this. Do you have someone you know who has the same battery you could try? Or try your battery in their device?

Step #11

You can connect it via USB and let it charge that way a little while, then try charging it normally. It's called trickle charging-

Trickle charging
Some Palm devices have the ability to "trickle charge" from a USB port on a PC or Mac. This means that it receives a very small amount of charging from the USB port, even if it is not connected to its AC charger. If your device is capable of this function, the charging time will be significantly longer for a trickle charge (depending on the power rating of the PC USB port). However, the device may not charge at all on an unpowered USB hub (or for example off off a keyboard).

SOURCE: my Dell Axim X5 400MHz Pocket PC wont hold the charge

Some people have said that the original ppc2002 ROM has battery draining problems. If this is something new, perhaps it is a bad battery. Ebay for a new one.

If you think it might be a software problem and you have ppc2002-also known as Windows Mobile 2002, upgrade your Axim with the A04 ROM:http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&releaseid=R63937&SystemID=PDA_AXIM_X5&servicetag=&os=PPC&osl=en&deviceid=4434&devlib=0&typecnt=0&vercnt=3&catid=-1&impid=-1&formatcnt=1&libid=7&fileid=82832

Other Axim stuff here (make sure to choose the correct operating system - ppc 2002 or ppc 2003): http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/devices.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&SystemID=PDA_AXIM_X5&category=0&os=PPCA&osl=EN

SOURCE: Moto Q charger problem

If you plug the charger into your phone and the battery icon does not change, then it means your physical connection is loose. If the battery connection does change but will not hold charge, then the battery is dead. I have managed 20 Q's in our office. Most of the time we just buy new batteries. Sometimes I fixed the connection by doing the following:

Use a needle nose plier and squueze the mini usb tip on the chargerslightly...very slightly. This will give it a "tighter" fit when you plug it into your phone. Make sure it's unplugged from the wall when you are doing this =).

SOURCE: my HTC smartphone doesn't power on despite charging

Solution is as follows:
1)press power button and green and red button and volume button all at the same time
2) put little stick into reset hole
3) press joinstick center button while holding down all the other buttons and the reset button
4) keep in this position for 10 seconds
5) let go and hold your breath
6) turn on phone as per normal

If this does not work. Send phone to HTC and tel them not to bother with a repair or refund

Imagine if everyone would do this
HTC would have the biggest pile of proken phones on the planet.

The true secret of htc phones is as follows and I know I worked for them as an advisor

The phone works just like a battery (which is hidden deep inside the phone)

Once this battery runs out or is depleted rapidly (by doing hard reset)

The phone will become useless
First you try to repair the phone and of course you won't blame HTC.It's not their fualt the phone does not work. is it?

and then you go and buy another HTC phone. and the story continues.

The secret about being successfull in business is to make profit
Lots of it.
and that means High sales price (low build price) and most of all low life span

HTC are the kings of the disposable phone.
htc means in chinese
H(how) (to) T(trick) C(customers)

SOURCE: my phone wont charge.... i have bought a new

It could be the charger itself that has the issue. If you have another charger try that. If you have done this and it still won't hold a charge I would contact your service provider they will try to trouble shoot issue but more than likely will get you to send phone in through warranty if your still eligible. If not eligible for warranty and don't have insurance ask about upgrade options. Hope this helped.

Replaced battery since it wasn't holding a charge. Has been plugged in for 24 hrs, still won't power on when unplugged from wall charger. What course of action should I attempt?

Possibly the charger itself is bad and only operating as a electrical connection/power cord for your camera. Try borrowing or buying another charger or take the camera to a local camera repair center or Best Buy, etc or contact customer service for your camera's manufacturer.
Hope this helps. Mike

Have been charging it for over 24 hrs it wont turn on?

If a little lamp is lit when you plug in the charger (indicating that the device is charging), then try holding the power button down longer until something appears on the screen. If no lamp is lighting when you plug in the charger then there is something else wrong. Check it is the right power supply for the device and that you are plugging into the correct hole of the device (not the earphone connector). It also may be the charger itself is not working.

How can I get the samsung tab to turn on

I'm assuming this is a new device for you. Do/did you see the battery charging icon in the middle of the screen when you plugged it in? If so, great. If not you are having a problem charging your tablet. Most likely either a bad cord, a cord that's pulled out a bit on either end, or an outlet that's turned off or not working.

If the icon was present and indicates a full charge, then simply press and hold the power button for a few seconds and the screen should start right up.

If it worked for you in the past, check your power cord. I've gone thru 3 on mine.

I have a 500 amp battery jump-starter # j5c09ca i know i have to charge it for 40 hrs before first use. after that do i have to charge it for 40 hrs.each time

No you do not. You are supposed to charge it for 24 hours before the first initial use. After that you are supposed to charge after it using it to jump start a vehicle or every 30 days if not used at all.


You are supposed to charge until the two red and one green LED lamps are lit SOLID. The unit should be fully charged once the LEDs are lit solid. Unplug the unit and put back into storage until needed. Again if not used for extended periods of time the unit should be charged ever 30 days.

I just got my bt15 headset and I have had it plugged in for 3 hrs.It works while being plugged in but it doesn't even turn on while unplugged.

Let it charge for an entire day (24 hours)

that'll do the trick. If not, then you have a battery issue . . .which is not uncommon.

My irobot (Roomba)is only working for 10 mins then

It should take about 6 hrs to charge. I had the same problem and reset the charging circuit. 1) Charge it until the green light comes on. 2) Unplug and pull battery out. 3) hold down the power on button 15-30 seconds. 4.) Put the battery back in, plug in the charger (direct - not through the dock) and charge for 72 hrs. Then, run at Max clean until the "I'm dead" tune plays.
