Hp mini battery died

Hi All,
 I bought one Hp mini last year and I was pretty impressed about its performance until last week. Last week I was out for a vacation and  for the first time its battery drained fully. And when i came back, the battery was not charging.   And today when i checked, I could find that its warranty got over yesterday.
Serial number CNC04433DF
Product number XP524PA
Warranty Status Warranty has expired
Warranty End Date 2012-01-21 (YYYY-MM-DD)
When I searched about this issue, I could see many people encountered this problem which confirms that this is certianly HP hardware issue that should be sorted out(Else you will be loosing customers for this reason).
CAn anyone help me regarding this ?

Thanks but I think it's time for me to face the facts that the hard drive is fried due to the battery dying right in the middle of running system defrag    
 (╥_╥)   sooo sad

  • IPod Mini battery dying too quickly

    I got an iPod Mini very recently, on September 14, 2005. I read in the User's Manual that it would take about a month for the battery to go from completely charged to completely drained if I didn't use it at all. Well, I charged my iPod fully on Tuesday or so, and by this morning it was 3/4 drained - after no more than 6 days of not being used!
    Also, the battery seems to die very quickly when I'm playing music on my iPod. It's supposed to have 18 hours of playback, but after about four hours total, it was very close to being drained. I know the battery metre is approximate, but I doubt it's 14 hours off.
    I'm really hoping this isn't normal, because I don't use my iPod that much and I don't want to have to recharge it every week even when it's not being used, or every day when it IS being used.
    So my question is...is this normal? Or should I take the iPod back to where I bought it and get it exchanged? Any other advice?

    This is ridiclous. A lot of people seem to be having the same problems. I mean as it states 18hrs of playback it should be. I have the same problem and dont even use it much. When fully charged I only get about 4-5 hrs playback. I went back to where I got it and they told me to contact Apple as they dont have any more dealings with you as its between aple and the consumer. I have contacted them now. It also has stopped working for me since yesterday. I knew there was half of the battery left so when I went to turn it on, theres no response from it. The screen stays blank. I also plugged it into PC and its not being recognised on my iTunes. Its powerless and Ive tried all their recommendations but to no avail.

  • Iphone 4 battery dying rather too fast plus overheating

    Using Iphone 4 for 3 weeks now it was working fine when i used it , now it has stopped going into landscape mode (I have checked it aint locked in portrail mode either) it overheats like an old Nokia smartphone and the battery died by 46% in 1h15min talk via handsfree and no app running in the background.
    Went to a apple retail store they said since iphone 4 is not launched in india yet (is some from apple listening to this, y is it not here wen ipad 2 is) hence they cant give me any service . I bought it factory unlocked from singapore ........
    Someone plz help me out i just wanted to buy a phone and forget about all the UI , OS issues ...now i m scared it might just blast in my hand
    HELPPPPPP!!!!

    Hi Lawrence
    Thanks for your time
    I tried both the steps u told me already, didnt help as extra precaution have deleted all apps save 1 : Wat app and yet within 5 hours i have lost 50% battery and haven't used much except may be 3o mins talk n few sms.
    I think the problem started after i updated the new ios and refuses to go , my phone aint going to landscape mode either and yes it aint locked in portrail .

    I presumed from your original post that you had to fork out another $3000 for a temporary replacement, and be without your original for 1 week, then have to return the temporary one. Not to mention all the postage etc.  Now, just presuming that you would be happy to pay $200 to have it fixed without all that hassle. Obviously your not satisfied with the current option otherwise you wouldn't have posted the thread to begin with.

  • N97 Mini Battery

    Hey y'all
    Has anyone else been having battery problems with their N97 mini battery recently.  It started 7 days ago for me. I unplugged my phone mid charge, and noticed that on my phone the battery icon was still moving as if it was charging. I thought it was cute because maybe the atmosphere or my charisma were still charging my phone for me. I restarted my phone and it returned to normal.  The following day my phone did the same thing, only this time I didn’t restart it, but eventually my phone ran out of charge. Since then the battery life on my phone has been very poor, I only get about 8 hours max, and that’s when I have not been on the net or made anything more than one 10 minute phone call.  The battery icon has stopped moving when its unplugged, but the battery life is terrible.
    I have updated my software today so I will monitor it, but seriously is there something up with my battery? It has left me short two days now where I’m in town and my phone has died. I am not happy.
    Any suggestions people?

    My N97 Mini is currently useless as I can't get it charged.
    I have experienced similar problems as have been referred here - and some extra too: E.g. my phone seemed to be able to utilize electricity from the air as the charging lamp was on and the indicators on screen were animated even though the USB cable was off!
    Using the USB port in my laptop was soon not possible either. 'Power Surge On Hub Port. A USB device has exceeded the power limits of its hub port.' was the only result in any of the three ports.
    Anyway I managed to deal with the problem until one day it refused to charge altogether.
    I took it for repair and they said they re-fused something (but were not very convinced that it solved the actual problem and instructed that if the problems remain I should take it back and they'd send it to a central repair shop (or something like that). The charging could be done although by keeping the cable in a certain position etc.
    But now it seems to be time to send it for real repair or replacement.
    Now it just looks like charging, then shuts down after a while, restarts charging, shuts down, (this forever) without ever reaching enough power to get to point to give the PIN.
    Before taking it to repair i was just wondering if this is actually a battery problem, not charging related as such. ---> Has anyone experience of having this solved simply by using a new battery?

  • Ipod mini has died

    Help!I just bought accessories for ipod mini 4GB and was working fine till battery died and i tried to recharge it. Now it wont switch on at all. i get no response and my computer doesnt register it either. i have been through all the reset/troubleshooting steps and nothing. i even let the battery drain and tried again to no avail. the worst part is that i bought the thing in the UK and am now in South Africa and Apple says theres no support out here- not even a service store. can anybody help? i really dont want to lose my ipod!

    Hi,
    I've got a similar problem. How old is your iPod? Mine's between two and three years old, and it seemed to be getting near battery replacement time (the battery was lasting about 45-60 minutes between charges). Now it won't draw power either from a socket or from my computer.
    As for battery replacement, there may be no Apple Authorised outlets, but I'm sure that there are perfectly good battery replacement options out there. A cursory Google search brough up a couple (for example, http://www.sonnettech.com/product/ipod/batteries/service.html - this is just an example; being UK-based, I'm not in a position to recommend them).
    When you spoke to Apple, did you call their iPod service number - (011) 719 9161? This was listed at http://www.zastore.co.za/ - seems like the Apple store has been outsourced in SA.
    Anyway, good luck. And if you get a chance, let me know how old your iPod is and whether it's first- or second-gen so I can judge whether my problem's related.
    Cheers.

  • Battery died, wont hold a charge, just died.  Fully charged battery dies in approx 2 hours.  Is it battery gone bad. Or something causing battery to use excessive amount of energy.  Do you lose data if battery goes out?

    Battery died, wont hold a charge.  After fully charging battery, battery loses all power in 2 hours. Is this indicative of a battery gone bad or something else?  Will I lose data if battery completely dies?

    Hi, thanks for the reply.
    Yes I have done the reset-didn't work.
    Yeh, the calibration was done so the phone turned off, then plugged back in to charge back to 100%!
    The iphone4s was connected to the charger outlet, the second I unplugged the phone the battery percentage went from 100% to 98%.
    AS we speak my phone is now on 100%, after 10 mins usage and 33 minutes standby. This just doesn't correlate with the decrease in battery life associated with every other number (e.g 99,98,97%) apart from when it is on 100%.

    Thanks for your answer, but i knew it was a battery problem. How come after a year and a few months, the battery is broken? I heard there might be some probs with the 1 st generation Ipod mini battery. Is that true and will Apple replace it free? even if i'm not on the waranty anymore?

  • My battery died and then when i charged the phone it is asking me to connect to itunes and restore. if i restore how can i get my data back

    My iphone battery died and on charging the phone it asked me to connect to itunes and restore the phone.
    If i restore the phone how can i get my data back and how can i check when i last backed up my phone

    If you have been syncing regularly as the iphone is designed, then you can sync the data back.
    Regardless you will have to restore the iphone.

  • How do i fix my issue: Apple Logo flashes on and off after iphone battery died during IOS update?

    I've tried the methods I've seen on youtube and other iphone tech help sites but I am still having the same problem. Today while updating to IOS 7 my iphone 4 battery died and I didnt have a charger, now that I am home an I put in on the charger I notice the apple logo just flashes on and off. I've tried to restores using the DFU mode with the home and power button but that only seem to stop the logo from flashing and even then the iphone still isnt recognised by the pc to restore, Is there any other way i can go about fixing this problem!!!!

    You can try the steps recommended in the User Guide.  If they don't work bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

  • My first problem is that I have no apps on my iPod desktop. The second is that my battery died, and despite being able to charge it, it is unable to restart back up.

    My first problem is that I have no apps on my iPod desktop. After using my computer to install something onto my iPod 5, it somehow disconnected. When i restarted the iPod, some apps (Safari, FaceTime, Game Center, App Store, iTunes Store, Camera, and some others disappeared. Apps like Flashlight and Jetpack Joyride which I had previousyl downloaded from the App Store were still there. I wanted to get the aforementioned apps back, so i decided to back-up my iPod to iTunes. The downloaded apps weren't able to be backed up ("authentication problems") but some apps like Tips, Video, iBooks, Reminders, Stocks, Settings, Voice Memos, were backed up. I then proceeded to factory reset the iPod, deleting everything and starting it as a new iPod. Once I finished this, I looked my desktop to see everything was gone, absolutely everything. I double-pressed the home button, showing Settings was open, but that's it. I opened settings and factory reset it again, this time choosing to restore from a backup. After doing this, I found the iPod looked the same as the last time i reset it - blank. If I scroll down the middle of the screen to bring up a search bar, I can find only the apps I backed up (Tips, Video, iBooks, Reminders, etc.) That is the first MAJOR problem. I was getting really frustrated, so I opened up iBooks and discovered I can download a could free books from the store, which was essentially the only thing I can use the iPod for. There were no videos in the Video app, and pressing the "Go to Store" button did absolutely nothing. No lag, it just ignored my touch. Once i found a few books, I decided to start reading. Eventually, i brought this iPod somewhere to read it, and didn't bring the charger with me. The battery died, and when i got home, tried charging it.
    Which brings me to the second problem. A minute or so after I plugged in the charger into the dead iPod, the Apple logo came on. But the iPod never started up. The logo stayed there, getting dimmer after a minute, but no vanishing even after fully charging or pulling out the charging cord. It didn't leave even after hours, but by then the battery died again. If i press and hold the power button and the home button at the same time, the Apple logo disappears. But I can't get into recovery mode utilizing the volume buttons. If i hold the power button when the screen is blank, the Apple logo comes back. But the iPod cannot start up.
    After everything was wiped, i was pretty angry. But I still had books to read, even if i couldn't do much else. Then the battery died, and it really wrecked me up. I feel so mad right now, although this actually happened about 4 days ago. The iPod being wiped happened about 3 days after the Christmas holidays began. This iPod also was not brand new, I bought it off a friend who had it for over a year, although it was in perfect condition (Obviously out of warranty.) I desperately need a solution to this HUGE problem. Due to personal reasons, I can't go to a Genius Bar or go to an Apple retailer in person, but communicating by E-mail is an option, as is instant messaging.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                     
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    The missing apps could have been done by setting the Restrictions that can hid those apps. If the backup was made with those retrictions set the the Restrictions are also restored.
    Thus, if you get it to work restore to factory settings/new iPod, not from backup

  • My ipod touch is frozen on a screen with the ipod logo and the usb charger cable...i cannot get rid of it...i let the battery die...i held the sleep button and the power buttons..anyone have any ideas?

    my ipod touch is frozen... the screen has a picture of the itunes logo and a usb charger. I have held the sleep button and the power button to reset and i have let the battery die and started to recharge...niether worked. any ideas???

    Try charing it to 50% at least.
    If all else fails, try putting it in DFU mode. Connect it to iTunes, (iTunes may not detect the device, but that's ok) hold the power and home buttons down for 10 seconds, then release the power button but keep holding the home button until it goes into DFU mode. iTunes should detect it and ask for a restore.
