3 Different Batteries, they say they are charging but aren't taking a charge

I searched around on this one and it seems to be a common problem but I can't seem to find a concrete answer as to what the problem is. I have a SPrint 700wx and have been having charging issues. When I plug my phone into the AC charger, the red led at the top of the phone lights up and the battery icon on the screen shows the little lightning bolt signifying that it is being charged, yet the battery remains at 0% charge, even after being charged for hours. Sometimes, the battery will suddenly start charging for real and take a charge and work fine. Yet, every few days this happens again. I have 3 different batteries and they all do this. On all of the threads and posts I have seen about this, someone always replies that its just a bad battery, but my batteries are all of different ages and this started happening with all three batteries at the same time, so I highly doubt that all three batteries suddenly went bad at the same time, besides the fact that the problem happens intermittently. It must be something with the charger or the software. I've read where people recommend a "soft reset" as well, but this didn't seem to help. Any help is much appreciated, I'm at the point where I'll just have to get a different phone because I can't go without a functioning phone!
Post relates to: Treo 700p (Sprint)

Have you tried a different AC charger? Try a different charger. If the same issue occurs, then it may be the charging circuit in the Treo itself and will need to be repaired.
You can try a hard reset to try and resolve the issue. The hard reset will erase all data on the device. Make sure you sync to the PC to backup your data.

    Ask the person who owns the iPhone.
    Which version of Cydia appears on the iPhone - the one
    with the black and white icon or a different one?
    If it was jailbroken, contact the developers of the jailbreak.
    Not all jailbreaks can be completely removed.

  • I can't update certain apps they say they are open when I made sure they are closed

    I can't update certain apps on my iPad and also iPhone, they say they are open but I made sure they are closed. I still get updates which I can download , but these certain apps seem to just say open. So when you touch open it goes right to the app, so I close it and try again and it still says open, I even tried holding down the power button and rebooting with no success.

    On iOS 7 apps that you've updated remain in the Updates tab in the App Store app for a couple of weeks before they disappear off it - if they show 'Open' against them (which will take you into the app) then that indicates that you've already updated them (they should have a grey bar above them with 'Updated 8 November 2013' or similar), if there is an available update for them then they will show 'Update' against them instead e.g.

    Unfortunately, nothing.  If there is a problem with the backup you won't be able to use it.  You'll have to restor a backup from your computer using iTunes, if you have one.

  • Does Verizon ever actually follow up on what they say they're going to do?

    Verizon's customer service has been an absolute nightmare to deal with, and if my wife weren't on a family plan through them with me I would drop them in a HEARTBEAT.
    I've been told ~5 times they'd call me back to follow up on issues or e-mail me with follow-ups and they've never done that once. This includes supervisors as well as other employees. I cancelled my upgrade order through them after they never sent the phone and when they did, stopped my order and had it reshipped back to them, and they said once the return is processed my upgrade date and charges would be returned to their original state.
    I called two days ago because my upgrade date still shows next year even though I never got a new phone, and I was promised that it would be changed to it's original date that day, but it still hasn't been updated.
    So, has anyone had a Verizon rep actually follow up and do something they say they're going to do? Or do they just lie and tell you that to make you feel better?

    no they don't:
    July 10, 2013
    Corporate Office/ Verizon Wireless
    Attention: Executive Relations
    To Whom It May Concern:
    Please don’t let this fall on deaf ears. I have been a long time customer of Verizon wireless for several years (well over 10 years.) My husband is terminally ill. He was diagnosed with ALS/Lou Gehrig’s disease. A fatal, progressive, neurodegenerative disease for which there is no cure. There are no tests for ALS, no treatment and no cure. It's a torturous way to die as the brain loses all contact with the muscle system.
    The reason I am telling you this is because you need to be aware of the insensitive, unprofessional customer service staff that I had to deal with for several hours today.
    I use to hear so many complaints about other cell phone services, from coworkers, friends, and family. I often recommended they switch to Verizon. Until Now.
    Today things changed dramatically. July 5th, Verizon Wireless turned off my phone service. I entered into a payment arrangement plan on 6-22-2013 with your financial services Department and CFS Retention Team. I’ve provided you with a copy of the agreement.
    NOTE: $250.00 was due July 1, 2013
    NOTE: I paid $250.00 on time, online on 7-1-13
    NOTE: Verizon’s Customer service and automated text verified payment was received.
    Per my agreement I am to make 5 monthly payments of 74.00 in addition to my regular monthly bill.
    On July 4, 2013 I received an automated text message indicating my service would be suspended due to the balance owed on my account. I tried several times to contact a live person at Verizon, (I assume people were working regardless of it being a holiday) Perhaps no one was working. Or no one cared to take calls. I tried two different phone numbers and could not get my call routed to a live body, instead I just kept getting the automated system requiring payment, and no matter how long I continued to hold on the line or how many times I pressed “0” for an operator. I got nowhere.
    On July 5th, from 10:00am until well after 2:00pm I was on the phone with your customer service representatives. I was told until I paid the past due amount of 83.05 that nothing could or would be done to reinstate my service and I would be charged $15.00 reconnection fee for each line. Well, needless to say, I paid the 83.05 over the phone, through your automated system. A payment I did not owe! I was given no other options no matter how many times I asked to be transferred to Financial Services and the Retention Team. 
    Now please keep this is mind, I am the full time caregiver to my spouse (who is bedbound, paralyzed, unable to speak, eat, drink and requires a PEG tube and a bladder catheter) so I was trying my hardest to provide my husband with the care he needed and deserved and dealing with your ridiculous customer service departments games. I spoke to eight different representatives. I kept being told there was a high call volume…I suppose that would be from other customers too who experienced billing issues…it certainly wouldn’t surprise me. I was hung up on; calls were dropped during the transfer or disconnected multiple times when I requested to be transferred to the retention team. I spoke with, Shetailia, Melissa, André, Debbie, Constance, Kelsey, Hope, Kayla and finally a supervisor/mgr. by the name of Greg at ext. 2072154. I explained my predicament. That it wasn’t my fault that my service was shut off. That the fault was with Verizon. All I wanted was a refund,  a reversal of the 83.05 payment, for it to be cancelled, stopped etc. I was told this couldn’t be done. I was told I had to call my bank for them to stop the transaction. Guess what..I called my bank..and guess what they said…Verizon had to stop the transaction as they were the ones who processed it.  I’m told there is a payment dispute in place for review. I, however, have no confirmation that this is true, I’ve yet to see anything documented from Verizon to that effect. I was told someone by the name of “Liz” from upper management would be in contact with me regarding this issue…and that I would hear from her within 24-48 hours…well here we are several days later (July 10th now) and no one by the name of “Liz” or any other manager followed up. I asked for a last name of “Liz” and was told that information could not be released, I asked for a direct line to reach her at or an email, I was told the lines and email are for internal purposes only. I’ve worked in customer service for over 20 years. I know that is a crock of ****.
    All I wanted was the 83.05 reversed and returned to my bank account. No one would or could help. Again, working in customer service I know this is not true, I have processed many credit card/debit card/ electronic check payments for customers and had the ability to reverse the transaction. The retention team verified I followed through with what the payment plan agreement was and yet no one knew why the “system” generated a past due/shut off text. No one could offer any explanation of why the service was interrupted. I’m told the 15.00 per line reconnection fee has been waived, again I have nothing documented to prove that either. It’s amazing to me, in this day and age; with all the advanced technology out there that no one would fix this.
    I didn’t owe 83.05. I did my part. I held up my end of the agreement, your company did not. And No one has bothered to right this wrong. Now, not only was the 83.05 taken from my checking account, I also incurred additional bank fees because I went into a negative status…a status that would not have occurred if your departments had done their job.
    Whom do I have to contact to get something done about this? What your company did is wrong. They should and must fix it. I have already filed a complaint with the FCC, BBB and the Florida Public Service Commission. You gave me no other choice but to proceed this way. Do you have any idea of the added stress you placed on me that day, on my family who by the way, didn’t get to each much because that 83.00 would have gone for groceries. 
    I feel very strongly that your company owes me more than the 83.05 taken from my bank account. I have a strong conviction about businesses needing to do the right thing. You see, that’s the kind of person I am, I have integrity and I would never have left a customer to fend for themselves. I would have pursued every department, every manager and I would have followed up with that customer until the problem was resolved. At this point, there is only one thing that will keep me with Verizon…credit my account for one month’s service. That is the least you can do. And I’m not talking about the 74.00 payments.
    Sincerely Disgusted,
    Sandy M
    There is one more vital piece of information you should have on hand. None of your employees know what number to give to a customer so they can reach the retention department directly. Here is the list of numbers I was given…and guess what…even one of the numbers is a non working number…really? A nonworking number for a phone company?!
    1-866-451-1237
    1-866-266-1445
    1-800-288-8496
    1-800-528-7594
    1-800-922-0204
    1-800-281-8584

    I don't have iPhoto on my ipad or iPhone. Apple says these are free but it is $4.99 in the App Store?

    They are free if you have activated a new iOS 7 compatible device since 1st September 2013. When did you buy and activate your iPad and/or iPhone ? If on or after that date then try logging out of your account on that device by tapping on your id at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in and see if it then shows as free on it

    You could try calling Apple and ask for Customer Relations.
    From Readers Digest-February, 2005
    How to Complain
          You call customer service to complain about a product, and you hang up angrier than when you started. That’s customer rage, a feeling experienced by millions of people with a major complaint, says Scott Broetzmann, president an American firm that tells companies how to offer the best customer service. His secrets to getting good service:
    Have a goal
    If you want your product repaired, say so. Want an apology? Speak up.
    Keep it short
    Focus on one problem, and be succinct.
    Stick with it
    You have to invest the time it takes. Don’t get what you want? Ask for a supervisor.
    Skip ultimatums
    Don’t threaten not to do business with them again. Why should they help you if you won’t buy from them in the future?
    Plead your case
    Many companies have information such as how much money you’ve spent with them and how often you complain. If you’re a good customer, they may be more willing to help.
    Be nice
    You’re unlikely to get what you want if you’re rude.
    Good luck.
