DV6-2008AX Battery Issues due to high temprature.

Hi All,
Machine: HP PAVILION DV6-2008AX ENTERTAINMENT NOTEBOOK PC
Product # VV714PA
OS: Windows 7
I have an issue with my DV6 Notebook not charging the battery, when plugged in the device shows Plugged in, Charging for a minute or so then changes to Plugged In, Not Charging
Having looked into the HP Battery Check the Battery Check shows that the battery is functioning correctly, but the battery is operating at a high temprature and is not charging
I know that this laptop is always overheating for me, does anyone have any suggestions that may reduce this issue
Thanks
Chris

Many times a laptop overheating is directly related to the cooling of the processor. The main culprit is the fan. The fan sucks in air from the bottom and blows it out the side. It will also suck in hair, dust, and other debris. That stuff often gets trapped by the heat sink and over time builds up in a layer which chokes off the cool air going to the processor making the fan work harder.
Check this out:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01657439&tmp_track_link=ot_faqs/top_issues/en_u...
What I recommend is getting some canned air and blowing out the vents in the side and bottom of the laptop. If after doing this you still have problems with over-heating, and your laptop is in warranty, you can take your laptop to a HP Authorized Service Center and ask them to clean the fan and heatsink. You can check your warranty here:
http://www13.itrc.hp.com/service/ewarranty/warrantyResults.do?admit=109447627+1286541891570+28353475
If it is out of warranty, consider searching for the maintenance manual for your specific model, in the manual there are schematics for taking apart the laptop. Cleaning the fan is much easier that removing a motherboard, so don't feel to intimidated by the idea. Also you can remove the heatsink and then remove the thermal grease and apply a new layer which also helps alleviate heat related issues.

Possible cure for battery issues

hi
first of all i dont own the device yet
i am user of 5530,5800,n8,c7,701
i was looking farword to bring in my hands the first nokia wp7 but due to features missing and (in my opinion) little overpriced at the moment(as sim free) i will wait for the next nokia wp7
but being for a while in nokia forums i deside to write this atricle with my opinion about the battery issue (IF IT IS) with the 800
after reading many users facing problem with battery in different revious and forums about my N9 last longer or my N8 etc i deside to do a test with my current in use 701(1300milliamber battery and the brightness screen that nokia offers right now)
i left all day the phone connected to 3g and gprs data with about 5 min calls couple of textsand little browsing fmobi,little use the default browser,little use apps which connects to internet ...all these for about 1,5 - 2 hrs
it did last about 12 hrs same as some users with the lumia
Now if you dont belive me TRY THE SAME TEST BY YOUR SELFS
what i have understand (as i dont own the device) is that perhaps by default or out of the box (and especially the branded phones from the providers) is that featurs like wifi or data, nokia account, market place bing etc must be ON
if was the same issue with my 701 it will not go too far of course
what nokia possible can do is to do a frimware update which in start up or rebooting the phone....dark them,wifi,data,bluetooth,internet connection should be off by default like in symbian
i am sure the upcoming new customers will not have future complains
but i belive this is important as some poeple dont have the knowlege to do all these to turn off manual, especially in a new UI that they are using first time (wp7) and of course having a new phone most of them especially the non experts can think the battery drains so easy if all are ON
******* or at least nokia should make it like symbian to turn off automatic after closing apps,face,twitter,email etc
thanks for your time reading
for me after my Xmas bonus(if any lol) i will go for a windows phone(sim unlocked)either if nokia or other brand
of course i can wait for the next nokia model not because of the battery issue but i prefer in windows phone 7 bigger screen
thanks again

I must agree with your thinking...
When I first got my C7, battery wasn't lasting a day...
And the reasons was the ones you said...
e-mail was keeping data on, WiFi was always looking for a connexion
I won't say that the Lumia 800 can't have any battery issues, but first of all, it's our use that kill off the bettery...
Setting e-mil to work only once per hour, setting WiFi off when not used...
Only those 2 option give a bette life to the battery...

Help with iPod mini (Battery issues)

I am an owner of an iPod mini (1st generation) that I bought in February from Amazon. The mini has constant battery issues that have led me to suspect a bad battery within.
For instance; I leave my mini in it's charging cable overnight, and it reports "charged" in the morning. I leave it for the rest of the day in my coat's poket but during my walk home from the bus stop, I find that the mini's battery is completely DISCHARGED and doesn't work at all. I'm sick and tired of having my battery last only a minute before it completely dies on me while walking home.
Can anyone lead me to a source of help? I NEED to get this problem fixed as I don't want to listen yo all my music while having to be hooked up to a cable.
iPod Mini (1st generation) Windows XP Battery discharged in a minute.

Edited by an Apple Host
Apple will replace your battery (if its within one year of purchase, no receipt needed, just the SERIAL # on the back of your mini), and you can get repair for FREE, just $32 for shipping and handling, OR you can, if an Apple store is near your home or in your town, take it to them, and get a REPLACEMENT mini on the spot, for FREEEEE!!!
Try those methods, but i HIGHLY suggest you take it to an Apple store first and see their take on the issue!!!

Another battery issue thread

hello heres my **bleep** battery story.
On 11/13/12 at 7pm I received my cyan lumia 920.The battery came with about 30% battery life and i played around with it for a little bit and put it on the charger. At 7am i removed the phone from the charger and went to work. between 7am to 12 pm
-I checked my email 3 times
-made 3 phone calls ranging from 3-8 minutes
-sent 3 texted messages
-checked twitter for maybe 5 minutes
-took 1 picture
-was on this forum reading some posts for about 10 minutes
and my battery dropped down to 52% from 100%
i called Nokia regarding this and i was on the phone with a rep and that phone call last 6 minutes and my battery went from 52% to 39%.By 1pm i had about 15% left. i called att about getting a replacentment and my battery dropped to 9% after 4 minutes.( if i return my phone to an att store i cant get a cyan. i have to mail it in and be without a phone for 2-3 weeks)
is this normal for thsi phone? did i just buy a phone with a sub par day time camera and a battery that wont last a few hours?
I have
-2 emails emails set to sync every hour
-battery saver on
-wifi off
-bluetooth off
-1 app running in the background (battery level app)
-tap to send off
-location on
-kids corner off
-brightness auto
-find my phone off
-feedback off
-high sensitivity off

Hi Joeynox and Sam87,
I too had battery issues with my new 920 when I received it, however after about two or three days and a couple of battery charge cycles, it stabilised and "broke itself in". I now get about 12 hours usage and still having 35% left after making 20 or so text messages, 2 two minute phone calls, ten minutes of Angry Birds, 15 minutes of browsing the internet, and listening to music on the phone all day, with the phone not being in flight mode.
If you are still having problems after a couple more days, i would suggest performing a hard reset, then if that doesn't work, to take your phone back to your point of purchase at AT&T. We have had numerous complaints and they seem to affect AT&T models of the 920, may have something to do with the AT&T applications installed on it causing conflict.
Also turn off your NFC through tap+send in the Settings, that may help....

X1 12942PG: Critical battery issue

Hi, i've recently buy a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 12942PG and since i've begin to use it, the thinkvantage toolbox showed a message about a critical battery problem ("problème critique de batterie" en français) and asked to install an update on this website, i've installed the 2 updates regarding the battery, and it changes anything.
What can i do?
Thanks in advance
Moderator Note: Edited subject to match content.

do a battery reset in the Thinkvantage Manager, if that doesn't fix the issue, then you should call the warranty department, as you would need a new battery.
I had a battery replaced due to some issues with the battery.

Classic Ipod Battery Issue

So I bought an Ipod Classic 80GB when I was in Fallujah mid 2007. First things first, no sand managed to get into the ipod casuing its epic failure. After about a year or so the Ipod started crapping out but wasnt a big deal at first. Little things like shutting off by itself, I thought maybe it was becuase I forgot to hit the hold button becuase I was always on a bike hittin jumps and maybe the jolt cuased a shutdown i never could figure it out. But then it got to where songs would be playing and the ipod paused itself and would freeze for an hour atleast. Then one day the Idud, I mean Ipod, just wouldnt work. Wouldnt charge, wouldnt turn on, wouldnt nothing! Only showed "please wait battery very low". So id plug it into the computer for the rest of the night and come back the next morning and still it would read "please wait battery very low". I was told the battery was most likely bad as the Ipod classic battery life expectancy isnt very long due to not being able to keep a charge.
Ipod was gonna get repaired until I saw the repair prices apple charges. I might wind up getting a new ipod but I dont want to lose the items I bought beucase its the only copy i have. All backup discs were misplaced...differnt story moving on. My Ipod holds a sentimental value and If I can get it repaired for a low cost and not risk losing the songs and videos I have stored then I'll get the friggin thing fixed.
QUESTION - Does it really cost nearly $200 to replace a battery ($59 on itunes replacment program, $159 for the repair) or did i just read the battery replacement page information wrong? Anyone know whether or not thats any repair on an Ipod or what Apple charges just to swap out a battery?

Battery issue. Will Apple replace?

My iPhone 3G is less than a week old and is delivering horrific battery performance. I've read all the reviews as to what is "normal", and have followed Apple's instructions to get more life (3G, push, and wifi off; my screen is at about 10% brightness) to no avail. Below is a link to a screenshot I just took. With the above settings, I was only able to get about 22 hours standby, 2 hours usage, and 22 minutes talk.
The battery on this is absolute garbage. What is the point of buying the 3G if you can't reasonably use any of the features??
http://www.me.com/ro/mhommes127/Galleries/100194/photo1216818979929/web.jpg?ver= 12168189790001

Tough to say -- My battery was good for about 24 hours the first couple of charges but I have read that the battery stretches about 10 or 12 charges into its life. Lately I can get about 48 hours of standby and 3 or 4 hours of usage.
I would keep an eye on it and after another week or two maybe go in and talk to apple.
I picked up a griffin powerbolt car charger so I don't see any downtime due to a battery issue for me. Plus, you should consider *everything the iphone does* and charging it every day or every other day - to me - isn't really a big deal.

Raid Battery issues....

I keep getting a warning for my Raid battery...saying write cache temp. disabled due ti insufficient battery charge.....Restarting does nothinng...Leaving system on for 72hours does nothing......

Does this RAID enclosure have a Battery itself that needs replacing, or is it the Mac's Battery? Is there a UPS involved?
a hardware RAID controller may carry a dedicated battery-powered write-back cache of its own, thereby allowing for efficient operation that is also relatively safe. Fortunately, it is possible to avoid such problems with a software controller by constructing a RAID with safer components; for instance, each drive could have its own battery or capacitor on its own write-back cache, and the drive could implement atomicity in various ways, and the entire RAID or computing system could be powered by a UPS, etc.

Mac Pro Raid Card - Battery issues...
http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/other-hardware-peripherals/157895-mac-pro-raid- card-battery-issues.html
The RAID card reconditions its battery from time-to-time. During the interval when the battery is discharged, it may report that the RAID cache is disabled (and you are enduring longer writes because of that). It should charge up and start using the write cache again within a few hours.

Is the battery issue with the 4s resolve or is it still a problem

I'm thinking of uupgrading to the 4S but don't want to if they are having battery issues.

Not everybody has problems. To see some reasons and solutions have a look at this discussion and the answer given by Lawrence Finch:https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3546270

IOS 5.1 and iPhone 4S - battery issues resolved?

Has the 5.1 update resolved your battery issues or created any new ones?
I just updated mine, and had to rush out the door so I couldn't test properly- I couldn't reset all settings to factory or recharge the phone to 100% but as is, so far no improvement at all. I wouldn't say I have the issue as bad as some others as my 4S lasts about the same as my windows phone (HD 7 - amazing phone if anyone wants a second phone or a change from ios, Android ***** so hard it hurts) and my old 3GS used to get after i updated it to 4.1 which was really bad, except I don't get so much "phantom drain" as that did. I do know that it could be much better as when I've reset my settings to factory before I've got a much better life span (what I'd expect from a smartphone) for a day or so before getting the bad battery again.
Any news, tips or findings? How has ios5.1 affected your 4S or previous model iPhone?

Genius Bar Feedback on Battery Issues

Ok..so I know there are hundreds of posts regarding various battery issues. I thought it might be helpful to post feedback on my genius bar visit today regarding my battery.
The issue with my battery is that the meter seems to be stuck at about 80% full, regardless of how much I use the iPhone or how long I charge it. I have no accurate way of knowing how much battery life I have left. I have even played 6+ hours of straight video to drain the batter and the meter never moves.
Fortunately, my lightning bolt icon (upper right corner) does eventually change to an a/c plug which tells me that the battery is fully charged even though the big green battery is always at 80%.
So the guy at the genius bar tried and inquired about all the usual tricks already discussed in this forum (restore, plug AC adapter to wall instead of USB, turn off wifi, bluetooth, etc). and concluded that it's most likely a software issue.
He did say however that the the usage statistics frequently mentioned here are controlled by AT&T and that it's functionality depends on AT&T sending some sort of over-the-air signal. Don't know if I buy that.
So, in a nutshell, they did not offer to replace the phone (not that they had any in stock anyway), but instead made a notation of the problem using my serial number and told me to wait for an Apple software update, which will most likely correct the problem. If it doesn't, then they can assume a hardware conflict and issue an replacement.
I know this is getting long, but I would like to add that my battery life itself seems fine. I just never know what I have left by looking at any of the two meters.
G5 Duo-Core Mac OS X (10.4.10)

My original iPhone had poor battery performance and would not reset the usage stats. There is no Apple Store near me, so Apple support sent a service phone and I sent mine in. The service phone has good battery performance and correctly reset the stats. I was notified that the original phone could not be repaired and a new replacement was sent to me. The new iPhone has great battery performance, but no matter what I try, the usage stats won't reset. Today I was told by Apple support that they believe this is a software issue and a revision would be developed to address the problem. There is no forecast availability date. It doesn't make any sense that a signal from AT&T would have anything to do with the battery stats. The service phone charged and reset the stats before I swapped my SIM into it.

Semi-Scientific Test on iPhone 4S Battery Issue w/two iPhone 4Ss

All,
My wife and I ordered identical 16 GB iPhone 4Ss. They were set up the same way. From the very start, I could tell that her battery was outperforming mine.
After a day of turning off and on various settings, from Location Services, to Siri, to iTunes settings, etc. I still noticed a huge gap in stand-by performance. I was losing 1% per 10 minutes, her phone was not.
Today, we had similiar usage with similar network characteristics (WiFi, decent 3G coverage) starting from a full charge (100%). After 8 hours, her phone still had 52% remaining. Mine died on the way home from work.
So tonight, I performed a test. I plugged both phones up and allowed them to fully charge to 100%. While plugged up, I ensured each setting on the phone were identical, including the number of Exchange accounts, brightness level, etc. At 9pm CDT, I unplugged them. My phone took a long time to get from 99% to 100%, her phone didn't. Mine also went to 99% upon unplug, her's didn't.
Neither phone was used at all, stayed completely in stand-by mode. At 10:15pm CDT, ...her phone remains at 100%. Mine is now at 92%. That's roughly 1% every 10 minutes on my phone, same thing I saw earlier in the day.
I think this, for me at least, confirms the diverse results folks are seeing. Some folks are seeing major battery issues, some are seeing better battery life over other iOS devices. It just so happens in our house, we have one of each. Why would two identical phones behave so differently? I've exahusted all possible options on my phone, including the recently posted attempt at deleting e-mail accounts and resetting network settings.
Does Apple recommend that I do a restore on my phone? I am trying to do so, but I am having issues re-downloading iOS 5. If I still see the same battery drain, I believe I will take this into the Genius bar.
I do believe it's time that Apple address this battery issue. I for one, based on experience, believe it's real, and could be a manufacturing defect. I don't know how else to explain two identical phones having vastly different stand-by results if my restore fails to fix the issue.

After spending 2 days troubleshooting I have found my battery drain culprit. When I turn my wifi on it coninuously disconnects and reconnects to my network. This was draining my battery about 1% every 4 minutes. I went through all the turn this stuff off, reset network settings, setup phone as new, helped some but still had the issue. This morning I set mine and my wife's up the same, she went to work and was playing music on the way in. Still had 100% after 40 minutes. I was at home with wifi on and dropped to 90%.
I charged my battery back up, turned wifi off and now after an hour still have 100%. This is with siri on, icloud on, notifications on, etc.
Can anyone else confirn this is an issue for them. I am trying to determine if it is hardware or software related.
Thanks

Iphone4s - iMessage, Call & battery issues

I cannont receive text or picture messages via imesssage every once in a while, it never appears to be an issue when i receive from OTHER phones on other networks. I am able to send the messages though. and this issue is not consistent. it happens every now and then.
While i was testing this, i also noticed that when i send an iMessage the receiver is seeing my email Id instead of my phone number. I donno how frequent it is, but i noticed it once.
also, whenever someone calls me i get the call very late, i.e. just when the caller is about to reach my voicemail or disconnect. I have tested this by dialing my phone from a number of other phone including iPhone 4 & 4S from At&t
coming to the battery issues, i ALWAYS have my time zone off(i put my clock 10 min ahead), so i dont see the issue others are facing. But once in a a while i can see the battery dropping from 80% to dead within an hour or two without any usage. I got my iPhone 4s on day 1 and this happened about 4-5 times till now. Everytime i saw this happening, i would terminate all the background apps but that dosent stop the battery from draining.
I went to the apple store yesterday to have it diagnosed and they sent me away telling that I need to make an appointment.
Is anyone else facing the same issues?
Please share the solution if anyone was able to get around these issues.

Hi,
I had battery issues with my iphone5 ever since I updated to the latest IOS. My battery was draining really fast and my phone was really warm. What I did to solve this problem was: Go into Settings>Mail>Fetch New Data>Push,and make sure you switch push off. In that same section make sure that fetch is set as manually. This means that you have to check your emails when you want to - instead of the notifications going off every minute draining your battery.
I hope this helps anyone with the same issue.

A suggestion for those with battery issues:

When I first got my iPhone, I had the same battery issues many people here are talking about, in fact I posted about it myself. Its fixed. Very fixed, and Im very happy with my battery life. Here is what I did.
First, do not charge it using your USB connection. At least not always. Why? I dont know. I did the first few days, and couldnt get a full charge even tho system wasnt going to sleep. I started using the wall charger, and got longer battery life, but still not great. One night, I forwarded the phone to my home phone in case I got a call, and shut the phone down completely, and put it on charge. In the morning, I woke up to a 100% charged, fully glowing battery icon. The battery lasted all day with no issues. Every night after that, I just charged it on the wall charger, but did NOT shut it down to see what happened. I am still waking up every morning to a 100% fully charged battery. The battery life seems to get better daily now.
Today, I ran wifi for about 5 hours because I forgot to shut it off. This was after going to the pool and listening to the iPod on the phone for about 2 hours. And using the phone normally throughout the day, checking mail, sms, etc. Really a full day of work, and my battery is still over 50% full. I purposely didnt connect it to anything during the day for a recharge, not the USB or wall charger.
Good luck, hope this helps. Id be interested to know if it does.

Here's my non-scientific experiment.
After surprising battery drain for the first 10 days or so with not much usage, I completely drained the battery yesterday until the phone shut off.
I plugged into AC charge and was worried when it didn't seem to even begin charging.
I plugged into USB, assuming it needed to charge enough to at least complete a sync.
I left it on USB until about 5-10% charge, then switched it to AC. At about 50% I needed to use it, so I did but sparingly, and put it back on charge, all the while keeping Mail on manual and WiFi off.
I took it off once more to get it home from the office, then plugged into AC.
I left that charging overnight.
I never actually got the "glow", but did get the plug icon showing full charge in the status bar.
After about 2 1/2 hours this morning, the status has not moved off of 100% (but with little usage as before).
This is definitely an improvement already though. Hope this helps.
