The OEM Rim battery colors are as follows:  8830 is lime green, 8330 is dark blue, 8130 is orange.  You cannot mix these batteries, they are not interchangable.

  • My battery drained. Screen shows battery with red line but doesn't seem to be recharding after 20 min.  Should I wait or do a hard restart? I haven't backedup in ages and don't want to lose pics, contacts etc.

    My battery drained. Pluged in to wall but screen shows battery with red line but doesn't seem to be recharding after 20 min.  Should I wait longer or do a hard restart? I haven't backedup in ages and don't want to lose pics, contacts etc.  Will a hard restart wipe all that out?

    Agree with Richard:
    -Your device needs both the CR and LF. To accomplish this:
    option 1: Concatenate the "end of line" string constant (this is a combination of CR and LF, located in the string pallete) to all your outgoing commands. Make sure in the "Visa configure serial port" the "Termination character enable" flag is false.
    option 2: Concatenate only a CR to your command's strings. Make sure in the "Visa configure serial port" the "Termination character enable" flag is TRUE AND that the termination character is set to 10 (meaning LF) which I think is the default.
    Details can be seen in this link:
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/862567530005F09C862565BE005AB500
    "Adding Termination Characters to VISA Serial Writes in LabVIEW"
    Interesting would be to configure the serial port to accept not one but two termination characters. The above links refers to the document "Developer Zone Tutorial: Termination Characters in NI-VISA.", where this is supposed to be possible. The document however is 404'ed.
    If someone find a working link please post it.

  • White screen with battery with red line across- software issue

    My phone froze last week when I plugged it in for the night. The battery had been dying pretty quickly for the 2 weeks before that. So i took out the battery and put it back in and then this white screen appeared with a battery and a red line across. I replaced the battery and it still gives me the same message. I tried pluggin the fone into the computer and reloading the software from the blackberry site and still nothing. The computer is not even registering that the fone is plugged in. Help please! I am running out of ideas!

  • The dreaded battery with red line (battery not detected)

    I've tried everything I can find to fix this problem...  a little while ago, I was writing a text message when my 8900 decided to reboot.  When it came back, all that was on the screen (and all I've seen since) is the battery with a red line through it.  I've done battery pulls, charded for more than a day using both USB and directly into a wall... I tried to wipe and reinstall but have been unable to complete the procedure (symbol reappears part way through)....  anyone out there have anything else I can try?  Here is a bit more about the attempt to wipe and reinstall the OS:
    Downloaded and ran JL_Cmder, was unsuccesful, it wouldn't connect to the phone.  Ran AppLoader from command prompt, finally able to get it to connect to the phone by unpluging from the usb, removing and replacing the battery and plugging back in immediately as the red light came on.  Got through removal of applications and instal oif JVM and system files, on the step where it waits for the device to initialize, it stops and the battery/line comes back on the screen....
    any further thoughts/advice are greatly apprecaited.
    Thanks

  • My kid just got an iPod 5th gen (today from Santa) and it won't power up or charge. The only response is when I connect the USB and press the power button or front button the Battery appears with red line and lightning symbol. No other response at all.

    Sorry about the long title.....its my first post.
    My kid just got a brand new iPod 5th generation (today from Santa) and it won't power up or charge. The only response is when I connect the USB and press the power button or front button the Battery appears with red line on left and lightning symbol below. There is no other response at all no matter what I do, including holding both buttons down for extended period.  My other kid got one and it works perfectly.....I have interchanged usb cables ports etc. but still no response....I would really appreciate any help.  

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since you have a hardware problem with the iPod. This is because as you said the same cable works with another iPod.

    I'm afraid you'll have to get the phone serviced, dropping the phone must have damaged additional parts inside the phone.
    But Apple will not service the phone anymore, opening the phone and replacing the battery should only be done by authorized personal, not by users.
    You'll have to look for a 3rd party repair shop and see if they can fix this, sorry.

    I am unable to drag any playlists to my ipod- the circle with red line through it shows up and precludes it from being accepted- what is up ?

    Though I have doubts for success, you might try a SMC reset.  It can do no harm.  Otherwise, barring suggestions from others, the Apple Store or qualified repair facility is the last option.

    The graphic card is damaged. You can't do anything more than taking your computer to an Apple Store or reseller and getting your graphic card replaced.
    Sometimes, when the graphic card is damaged, operating systems can't start. That's caused because the drivers that make the graphic card work detect an error, telling the operating system that the graphic card is unusable, so the operating system can't start and it restarts. However, you can start in safe mode because operating systems use a basic driver in this startup mode

  • Solo Button in Channel Strip with Red Line

    Solo Button in Channel Strip with Red Line through it and it won't solo?
    How'd it happen and how do you get rid of it?
    Thanks!

    Try This----From the Manual
    Logic Pro, Express: Solo Safe mode may not remain disabled for a particular channel strip
    Symptoms
    In certain projects, "Solo Safe" mode for a channel strip may enable each time you load the project, even after you disable it and save the project.
    Resolution
    When a channel strip in Logic is "Solo Safe", it remains audible, even when other channel strips are soloed. Solo Safe is indicated by a diagonal red line through the solo button on a channel strip.
    You can manually toggle the solo safe status of a channel strip by Control-clicking its solo button. There are times when you may find that a particular audio channel strip in a project reverts to solo safe mode when you load the project, even after you manually disable solo safe. Here is why that may happen and steps you can take to prevent it from occurring.
    A Logic project contains a special audio channel strip used for pre-listening to audio in the Sample Edit window, Audio Bin, and Loop Browser. When you create a Logic project from one of the factory templates, this channel strip is assigned to "Audio 256". This channel strip stays in solo safe mode so that you can always preview audio. The image below shows the channel strip for a new, empty project.
    If there is no audio channel strip in a project assigned to "Audio 256", Logic will use the highest-numbered available audio channel for pre-listening. When the project is loaded, that channel strip will be put into solo safe mode. You may find this happens in older projects that you open in Logic 8, or in cases where you have deleted the "Audio 256" channel strip in a Logic 8 project. To prevent this from affecting channel strips you are using in a project's arrangement, follow these steps:
    Choose Window > Environment.
    From the Environment window menu, choose New > Channel Strip > Auxiliary. A channel strip will appear in the environment.
    Select the channel strip. It will highlight.
    In the Device parameter box in the upper left of the Environment window, click the arrows to the right of "Channel" and choose Audio > Audio 256 from the menu.
    Select the text tool, click on the name below the channel strip and name it "Prelisten".

  • Battery icon with red line

    I have a curve that only displays the battery icon with the red line thru it.
    I have tried 3 different batteries in it and have also tried reloading the OS thru DM but no luck. I have a second Curve that works just fine with all the batteries I have for it.
    Is there anyother way to reload the OS without using DM to do it? or any other cure for the battery problem

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    Try doing the application load with the battery out.  It will error out and give a message similar to "unable to connect to device during a multi-stage load operation".  Once you get the error, put the battery back in and try the application load again.
    You may have to try this four or five times, but if you can "spark" it for the second it looks for the PIN and gets connected you can finish the load.
    Make sense?

  • Battety problems - blank screen wit battery sign with red line

    I have the blackberry 8900 curve. Recently when I put my phone on charge it would turn my BB off and turn it self back on again. My battery was about 2% and I put it on charge and the phone turned off but when I looked at my phone the red light came on and then blank screen with a battery sign with a red line through it.
    I got some advice to take out battery, sim card and memory card. Which I did and my BB turned back on. However my battery was still dead so I put it back on charge and it turned off and since then my BB hasn't turned back in. I've left it on charge and nothing.
    Would really appreciate it if someone could help me out on this.

  • Blank screen showing battery sign with red line - possible solution

    Hi to everybody,
    I had a little issue with my Blackberry curve 8350i, but I think this might go with several models. One day my Blacberry updated an application and restarted, but when restarting suddenly I got a blank screen showing a battery sign with a red line. I took out the battery and put it in again, but no luck. I searched on many forums if anyone experienced the same as me. I found a lot of topics but no solution. I called tech support of my service provide and fortunatelly I talked to a tech guy who was willing to help. He said that this error message usually might appear when the battery is faulty, not original (not my case) or device is not working, but before taking a final statement he wanted me to try something first. He said to take out the battery, the SIM card and any extern memory card. Then to clean any contacts with air. I followed his instructions and after that the device worked again without any problems. I would like to share this experience on this forum maybe this will help other to to solve similar issues.
    Best regards,
    Julix
