Battery charger does not stop charging when battery is full

On my G4 laptop, the battery continues to charge even after the battery is obviously full charged. Also, the battery life indicator in the menu always says "calculating" rather than giving me the remaining time left on the charge.
I've tried two different batteries, and I've reset the PMU.
Any ideas or help with this problem?
Thanks!

I have the same thing happening to me. My indicator at the top right of my screen shows the plug sign at 99% or 100& but the amber ring doesn't change to green. After a while the symbol changers to charge but the ring remains amber no matter what the symbol indicates. I've also reset the PMU. Waht worries me is that something is wrong. Should I ignore the improper amber ring color?

To show the battery percentage used go to settings
from there click general scroll to usage and select
scroll to bottom of page for battery usage select on.
This will show the icon battery and the percent numbers on the top right.
When phone is connected to an outlet sometimes it does not always show complete charge. I do not understand why but it is what it is.

Dv 6809wm laptop. Computer still does not boot up when battery out and ac adapter plugged in?

dv 6809wm laptop. Computer still does not boot up when battery out and ac adapter plugged in?
It lights up initially for a split second when I push power button, but does not continue to boot up. When ac adaptor is put in it glows blue like it is supposed to. Any suggestions?

i'm going to try to see if a different ac adaptor will work hopefully that solves the issue.

The CC version will not activate with your perpetual CS6 license. Download the version from here:

Music does not stop playing when I disconnect from USB in car

When iphone is connected to car stereo, music does not stop playing when I disconnect the usb cable. If someone is calling me and I unplug from USB, all I hear in my ear is music...I cannot hear the person calling me. Not sure what's happened but it never used to do this. Any suggestions?

Nseries phones have behaved this way since forever.
I don't know any way to change this. Same behavior happens if you unplug your headset or headphones.

One device does not stop ringing when answering FaceTime with another

Does anyone have this problem; I have a 15'' MBP 2011 OSX 10.8.2., and an iPhone 4 running iOS 6.0.1. When my FaceTime receives a call, both devices are ringing just as they should, but one device does not stop ringing when I use the other to answer the call. However, the call is disconnected after some time (like, if you don't answer at all, the call attempt is dropped). So, my FaceTime calls are constantly dropped. IF I answer and then choose to reject the call with the other device, the call is disconnected.
This problem occurred some time ago, perhaps with the Mountain Lion upgrade, but not sure - I don't get that many FT-calls but from my family abroad.

I had the same issue pairing a Mac G5 powerpc with a 2014 Macbook Pro and resolved it. In addition to pairing the devices through System Preferences>Bluetooth, make sure that "Bluetooth Sharing" is checked in System Preferences>Sharing as well. In my case, the devices always say "disconnected" in the Bluetooth panel, but change to "Connected" during an actual file transfer. Try sending a file even though it says "disconnected" and it may very well work fine. It also helps to check "Show Bluetooth in status in the menu bar" so you can quickly initiate a transfer from there.

Executable does not stop running when closed

I am trying to build an executable, but it does not stop running when I quit. I have to stop it through the task manager. How can I make it actually stop the .exe thread?
I have confirmed that the loop stops running, and have even tried connecting it to the "stop" function.
Thank you!

But you left the right side tunnel unwired from the the inside (so the event reg terminal OUT contains the valid refnum to the user event you just tried to destroy) Event terminals behave like SRs with invisable wires in every case that is not wired
Here is an example demoing just this behavior.
I'm sorry, but I can't see th eexample because I am running 2009. I think I understand. I've cleaned up the code a little bit, and added a shift register for the events. Is this what I needed to do? This still does not solve the problem, unfortunately. If I close, the "Quit" sequence properly executes, (including closing of the front panel), but the thread still does not close.

My battery still does not start recharging when less then 10% charged

Hi,
I have been having problem with my laptop (Pavilion dv7) for the last three weeks if not more. Basically the battery does not start charging when it is less then 10% charged. I tried calibrating the battery and the problem seemed to disapear for some time. However after less then a week it starting doing the same thing again.
When I try the battery healt teset (that comes by default with the laptop) it gives me a message that battery should be replaced and also gives me the warrenthy id. Should I go with the warrenthy id to the place where I bought the laptop to get a new one? Or is there anything else I can do to try and solve the problem.
Regards
Simon J.

Call up HP Tech Support, provide them the warranty ID, to get your battery replaced...Given if your Laptop is not more than 1 yr old, as Battery has one 1 Yr warranty on it...

Laptop batter does not stop charging

Hello,
I have a new problem. The last two weeks I have been trying to solve a problem with my laptop (Pavilion dv7) battery not wanting to charge when battery had less then 9% life time left. I solved the problem by calibrating the batter again (although still not satisfied; battery does start re-charge when 9% life time is available, but when 6% life time is available it does not).
However now I have another problem. After re-charge the laptop description, it now stops at 99% life time available!! and battery continues on charging, even though it does not need to. In other words the laptop is now never 100% charged and the light on the laptop that indicates the battery is charging remains on.
What can I do to solve this problem??
Regards,
Simon J.

Try to troubleshoot the AC power supply, system board and the battery are functioning correctly. If not,I'd guess there is break in the connection where the whatever it's called that the charger plugs into is soldered to the motherboard of your laptop. There's no good fix. It's a difficult thing to resolder. So you have a broken connection that will sometimes work if things are wiggled around just right. You might find a repair shop that can check the connection and resolder it, a tv repair shop would probably be cheaper than a computer shop. It really sounds like you have a broken connection on the motherboard.

Trouble shooting flashing "special characters" screen on my MacBook. Restarting, Shutting down, removing and placing battery again does not stop it. The flashing screen is blank with a turning gear as if loading, but it does not.

I need help with troubleshooting for flashing "special characters" screen on my MacBook with Snow Leopard. The screen flashes regardless of what app is on; it is as if it is trying to load but it does not. Is there a duplicate or conflicting file in the system that should be deleted? Where would it be?
Thanks in advance for your attention.

Ummm, nope. All due respects, this problem cropped up suddenly, at about the same time, for multiple users, on different laptop types. Probability of all this happening at once due to simultaneous hardware failures is much lower than if it was caused by say a software update not playing well with something (a piece of 3rd party software, etc). I'm having the same exact problem, I have put a new battery in, same thing happens.
This is similar to 3 or so years ago when widgets were first introduced, laptop battey lifes dropped to about 1/3 and the machines heated up. General consensus was it must be hardware, well no it was software, and a software fix took care of it. I'm hoping someone figures this out soon...
Thanks

Charging does not support accessory

My iphone 3gs gave me an error message charge does not support charging accessory, use differnet charging cabble but no charge

John,
I don't think the problem is in the phone per se. I've tried the same cords on both iphone and ipad and I still get that annoying message. So, it could be both my ipad and iphone. I have tried to use both Apple's cord and an OEM cord to no avail.

Vibration does not stop near my ear

I think this happens after the iOS 8 updates.
After pressing the green button for receiving a call, the phone keeps vibrate a while and does not stop even when it's close to my ear.
This is really annoying!
I don't know if it's a problem of the proximity sensor of my phone or not. Any suggestion?

You may need to perform a software repair using PC Companion.The process will erase all internal memory.You might need to charge your device for about 1-2 hours before so the device has at least 60% battery.
Make sure the device is not connected to computer or laptop and turned off (sometimes you have to press power button and volume up until the device vibrates 3 times or on some devices you have to press the small button near the SIM tray or on the back of the device).
Open PC companion->support zone->phone/tablet software update->repair my phone/tablet blue highlighted.Follow the steps given,do not connect your phone until prompted to press volume down while plugging USB cable. If PC companion does not start the repair process, you might need to run it in compatibility mode with Windows 7 (in some cases XP).

Because GPS has nothing to do with WiFi, cellular signals, or data of any sort. GPS is implemented by signals sent by satellites that are received by GPS receivers. The receivers process the information from the GPS satellites and calculate your location. GPS never sends data anywhere; GPS functionality is receive only.
If you have WiFi or cellular data turned on this can improve the accuracy of GPS, because the GPS receiver can then use the known location of cell towers and WiFi networks to refine the GPS location. GPS by itself has an accuracy of 10 meters, or about 34 feet. Using the additional information from WiFi and cellular data this can be brought down to 3 meters (10 feet). This mode is called Augmented GPS, or A-GPS.

My iPod touch 5th generation battery indicator does not update when being charged (Updated to iOS 8)

Note that the iPod touch 5th generation was updated to iOS 8. When I connect my charger to my iPod touch, for the first time, the battery indicator does not update when connected to a power source. Instead of being charged, it says that the battery is being depleted. Please fix this issue. Thank you!
