700wx charging

My Cousin gave me his year old 700wx monday. But when i try to charge it. It wouldnt charge, I have try wall and car chargers. the battery meter on the phone shows the lighting bolt to show its charging but it looks like the battery drawing no power. Is there a way to slove this with out buying a new phone, cause for a good phone to have such a annoying defect would piss me off.

Hi and welcome to the palm forums.
If the battery meter on the phone has the lightening bolt going through, that means it is charging. Let the device stay in the charger for 3 hours and then you should notice that the indicator shows it is full.
Are you still having trouble with your device? Does it seem to be dying very quickly?

The center pin on any car power socket (or plug) is the Positive. (Note: this is in reference to most cars in the USA with negative commons "aka" ground).

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!

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.

Do the cables for the 700p work with the 700wx?

I used to have a treo 700p that I broke when I dropped it from a 2nd story balcony onto concrete. I still have the box and whatever cables came with it. Now, I'm able to buy a 700wx for a real low price, but the seller only has the phone and the charger for it, no other cables. Would the cables for my 700p, like the sync cable work with the 700wx? If they would, this would work out real nice!

Yes it will work most of the cables for the Treo series will work as it is an interchangeable cable, there is some exceptions, but in your case it will work.

My Palm Treo 700wx seems dead

Hi im hoping someone can help. This morning i found my son with my treo700wx and when i took it off him it now will not turn on or reset or anything, i plugged it into charge and nothing, no lights no noise ....nothing.
I had the keyguard on, if there are many failed attempts at that would it lock me out completely??
I have tried everything i can think of so any suggestions would be a great help please
Thanks

Hi Alan,
Thanks for the suggestion, tried that just now and still nothing. It has me completely stumped!
It has been flashing on and off randomly last night, coming to the Treo loading screen then the windows mobile screen then seems to fizzle out again. I cant turn it on none of the buttons seem to do anything. Yesterday when the screen flashed on it also said that there were a few failed attempts to put in the keyguard code and to make sure it was just mistaken button pushing to enter the code A1B2C3, i did that and everything seemed fine, it went back to normal, i could go into messages and look around and then it has now gone back into hibernation never to be woken again!
It hasnt gotten wet so i have no idea what to do. Does anyone have any idea how long the warranty covers these phones??
Any other suggestions would be awesome
Thanks again
stacey

Unable to charge from sync cable

After installing activesysnc 4.5 I can't seem to make my phone charge from the usb sync cable. I know there is power coming through the cable because it would charge my Palm 700p through the palm desktop software. Is there a setting that I just can't find? I've installed the Palm software and installed and reinstalled activesync 4.5.
Thanks

TREO 700WX Battery

On two separate occasions, my TREO 700WX battery has rapidly lost its charge at a rate of 10% per hour or more with minimal or no usage. This causes me to virtually need to carry a power cord. For inexplicable reasons on both occasions the loss of battery power ceases spontaneously and the charge is then retained normally. Has anyone else had this problem? Verizon is at a loss and the retail stores are useless.
Post relates to: Treo 700wx (Verizon)

Over the past 2 weeks my battery in my 700wx (Sprint) has started doing something like that also, and it also won't take a charge. I leave it plugged in all day at work and all night at home and it continues to lose its charge and now it's completely off and won't charge back up. I've only had the phone and battery 3 months, which seems like very little time for a battery to die. I have only been charging it at home over night. Now I charge it all day at work and still nothing. I don't use it enough for the battery to run down daily like it's been doing and especially not enough for the battery to not charge. Is it possible I got a bad battery and what is Palm's warranty policy regarding batteries.

800w charging/power issues

I just got an 800w (sprint of course) and have been haivng lots of strange power/charging issues.
I have IM/email running, so data is active but I am only getting about 4 hrs of charge (with no voice calls) on a full charge.
The thing that concerns me the most is that if the battery dies completely it seems to take 3-4 hours before it even ~starts~ to charge. When it is dead it won't even turn on for 3-4 hours. The red "charge" light sometimes is on, sometimes off and sometimes is flashing. During this time ocassionally it will start then shut back down. I have seen this happen the past 2 days.
My old treo (700wx) was usable with the battery out and the ac charger plugged in. The 800w doesn't turn on until a battery (charged) is put in.
Another thing I noticed is that if I plug the USB cord into my computer, the charge indicator also comes on, but it also seems to have charging issues. Last night the phone had 90% or so of charge (that ~was~ charged via the USB cable) and when I got up this morning (phone still plugged in and computer still on) the phone was almost dead (<5% left).
Is there a problem with the phone or any other thoughts?
Post relates to: Treo 800w (Sprint)

Here, just got a hold of this. This may solve your charging issue. http://www.palm.com/us/support/downloads/treo800wusb/index.html
Now it does say on the page this does not prolong the battery life. But in your case a full battery will.
Message back and let me know how this works for you.

700wx battery life

My treo 700wx seems to have extremely short battery life (i.e., 4 hours without talk time). Is there a software patch or is this a potential service issue?
Post relates to: Treo 700wx (Sprint)

My 700wx has just developed this problem too. It was fine for 4 months, but now, you can practically watch the battery drain, with nothing turned on. Yesterday, it drained to 11% after only four calls during the day. Also, the charger takes forever - 4 to 5 hours to charge, and it gets very hot. Also, my Bluetooth suddenly doesn't work any more. Any ideas???

Flashing red LED - 800w won't charge or turn on

Love my new 800w especially in comparison to my old 700wx that never worked quite right. Loved it even more after I figured out how to turn off the GPS and extend battery life. Figured that doing a few full charge-full drain cycles would help battery life in the future and reduce memory effect, so ran through 2 cycles fine and on my third...disaster.
Battery drained to 0. Device autopowered off. Got back to my AC charger, plugged it in, LED went red, figured it was charging. An hour later, turned it on, got the booting up message, got to the main screen where it showed a zero battery with AC plugged in...and now it's dead.
I now see a solid red LCD when plugged in for about 10-30 seconds, then it turns off for about 1/2 second, rinse, repeat. Will not start up, period - battery or no battery. Have tried soft resets (removing battery) numerous times, tried hard reset, but hard to do a hard reset if there's no way to turn this on.
Any suggestions? Should I buy a new battery? Is the old one covered under warranty?
Post relates to: Treo 800w (Sprint)

I had the exact same problem after the phone went completely dead and I tried to revive it by charging it with my car charger. (I read that when the phone is completely dead, it is recommended that you use the wall charger) It would not give me a red light indicator most of the time showing that it was charging. When I got home, I tried using the AC adaptor and I had the flashing red light. The phone would power on by itself after about 10 minutes of being plugged in. The phone would boot up and give me about 20 seconds to mess around before it would go dead again. At that point, the red light would not come on at all despite being plugged in and I would have to pull the battery and start from scratch. What I did notice that no matter how many times I did this, the battery would have 0% when the cell phone would actually boot up.
What I ended up doing was a hard reset, but the only way I was able to hard reset the phone was to hold down the red button for a few minutes after plugging in the phone... so when the phone decided it wanted to startup I had the button pushed down. It then asked me if I wanted to erase the data, I said yes, and the phone started working properly again.

UGHHH again, 6th time Mac fails me ..... and best buy charges me so they can "inspect it".

well the previous times 4/6 were do to manufacturing defects, the last 2 were due to the screen messing up.
now after i had this for a month, the fan makes a noise like it hits something inside and the screen leaves a purple "stain" on the screen when watching movies and playing games, it goes away after it a few hours.
but really, i went there to get it repaired and the guy said he has to charge me 60$ to look at it, and then send it to apple.
im like really, a month or two old computer and it breaks down ? and I have to pay!!! .... so im going to go complain, im going to either get my computer fixed for free or i want to return my MAC for store credit so i can purchase another laptop.... like i had it up to here with there snotty people, there attitude towards me was NOT deserved. One worker told me " well if it works fine its not worth fixing" im like ???? " seriously, i paid good money for it and i dont want ink marks on my screen when it gets "warm" "

If it is undetermined to be a software or hardware issue then they are authorized to charge a diagnostic and then refund it after they verify the warranty covers it.
Similar to how car repairs work.
Beyond that I do not know the exact $60 is except for maybe sending it out to service, but if it is under a warranty normally there isn't a charge for that.
If it is after the 14 days it is unlikely that they will be willing to do a return outside of the 14 days since they will eat the cost of the laptop. And, based on industry average gross margins they would have to sell 10+ laptops to make up for that single one they ate...

HT204088 Why am I being charged for things that do not show up on my download histrory?

I have a charge each week on my bank account from ITunes of things that I am not purchasing. This week it is $1.29, and it does not show on my downloard history. What is up with this? And now I see where I hit the update button and all said FREE and now charged to update with one of my FREE apps.

You aren't charged to download app updates, though if you add or change the credit card details on your account then you might see a small temporary store holding charge, which should disappear within a few days.
Have you made any in-app purchases or have any auto-renewing subscriptions ? If you don't recognise the charges then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they see what they are for : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Issue with magsafe/charging (blinks green, amber, off)

Having a quirky issue with my mid-2009 Macbook Pro.
A month or so ago, I began having an issue with my macbook charging. When the computer is up and running and I plug in the magsafe it will say "Calculating..." and then say "Not Charging" and then switch to battery use. It constantly does this as long as the magsafe is connected. The lights on the magsafe will constantly cycle from green to amber to no light.
At first, it would do it a few times then it would start charging. Now it constantly does this without ever stopping. I was editing video the other day for a while and it never stopped the cycle.
Thinking it was the battery, I took it into the Apple Store last week and got a new battery because it had been saying "Service battery" for a while and the battery would only last about 20 minutes on a charge. So I just thought the battery finally refused to charge.
But the problem still exists.
The magsafe is new (only 3 months old) and here's the quirky thing: the computer will charge if it's asleep (lid closed) or shut down completely. No blinking lights at all. It will charge as long as it's asleep or shut down. So I don't think it's the charger. But as soon as you hit the power button to starting booting up, it will blink.
I have reset the SMC a couple times actually, but no change.
Is there something software/firmware related that I haven't tried? Any insight or suggestions would be greatly appreciated before I take it back to the Apple Store (which is about an hour away).
Thanks!

First battery charge and current issues?

Hi!
I just bought a new MacBook (2.0 GHz, 160 GB). I have two quick questions:
1. I plugged in my AC adapter, turned on the notebook for about 5 minutes to make sure it works fine, etc, then shut it down to let the battery charge. Would I have lost any battery capacity by not fully charging the battery first? And do I need to let the battery run through a full cycle when I first use the computer to ensure full capacity?
2. Are there any updates/best practices for the 2008 (December) MacBook batteries? I know there was an issue in 2007, but for the new line am I set to go? And is it still best practice to put shut the Mac down instead of putting it to sleep to save wear and tear on the hard-drive/battery?
sorry for all the questions: it has been 5 years since I bought my last notebook so I am a bit rusty/excited!
