  • Charge time for New 8GB Nano?, Charge time for New 8GB Nano?

    I just got an 8GB nano today and I did not see a time given for the initial charge...
    I took it out of the box, read the little teensie instruction booklet, plugged 'er in and loaded up with some songs..still plugged in, and I assume charging, though the display is now off after I "ejected" it from iTunes.
    a buddy says overnight. I'm hoping it's not that long, but I want to do what's best for the battery's longevity.
    Thanks for any info!

  • Battery Charging time for a 6280

    I have just bought a 6280 mobile phone but i cannot find any info on chsrging times...... can you help?

    Typically from flat it may take up to 2.5 hrs to report "fully charged", however to ensure full charging the phone must be on charge for at least 16 hrs. The last 5% is only done a trickle! A new battery must be "cycled" 3 times to achieve full capacity.

  • Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro (K920) battery charging time

    Hello everyone,
    I wonder, if anyone could help me, please.
    I'm experiencing an interesting issue related to battery charging procedure of brand-new Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro (K920).
    The thing is, the first two battery charging procedures took about let say 2 hours 40 minutes both.
    But the third battery charging procedure took about 3 hours and 10 minutes exactly!, which I consider to be rather strange, mostly because of web reviews of this smartphone, where 2 hours and 30 minutes typical charging time is described.
    I understand the fact that brand-new battery has to be initially "formatted" and it's capacity is therefore gradually increasing after few battery charging attempts.
    Needles to say, after that third battery charging procedure, the battery life has been also significantly improved. I use genuine Lenovo charger which comes with the phone in the box. The only thing, which I changed since first two battery charging procedures, was turning ON "Core efficiency" in the Lenovo Battery Manager.
    Could it be the reason of such extended battery charging time or is it perfectly normal bacause of gradually improving capacity for brand-new battery? Could it be defective battery? Has anyone of the owners the same experience or what is yours typical battery charging time using in-box charger?
    Thanks in advance for any advice, suggestion, explanation.

  • Very slow Charge time for xperia z2

    i noticed that charging time for z2 is very slow !! anybody has the same ? any suggestions? i am using the original cable which comes out of the box .    

    Hi, this could be because it is a new phone/battery......if mine is sitting at say 15% it does take a good few hours to get up to 100%..... Do you leave the phone switched on during charging...if so check what apps etc are using the most power....top of the list should be your screen but look for abnormally high usage from an app etc Hope this helps

  • How to Set A Default Start Time For New Events In Calendar?

    How to Set A Default Start Time For New Events In Calendar?

    John,
    Thanks for that suggestion - could not get it to work. However, I did manage a different approach. I finally determined the sequence of events in terms of how the various events and listeners fire (I think).
    Basically, the CalendarActivityListener fires, followed by the listener associated with the Calendar object's Create facet, followed finally by the CalendarEventListener - the final is where the TriggerEvent is available and then finally, control is passed to the popup/dialog in the Create facet. So, my approach of trying to set/get the TriggerDate in the user's HTTP session was doomed to failure because it was being get before it had been set :(
    Anyway, I ended up adding a bit of code to the CalendarEvent listener - it grabs the current BindingContext, navigates through the DCBindingContainer to derive an Iterator for the ViewObject which drives the calendar and then grabs the currently active row. I then do a few tests to make sure we're working with a "new" row because I don't want to alter start & end dates associated with an existing calendar entry and then I define the Start and End dates to be the Trigger Date.
    Works just fine. Snippet from the listener follows
    BindingContext bindingContext = BindingContext.getCurrent();+
    *if ( bindingContext != null )    {*+
    DCBindingContainer dcBindings = (DCBindingContainer) bindingContext.getCurrentBindingsEntry();+
    DCIteratorBinding iterator = dcBindings.findIteratorBinding("EventsView1Iterator");+
    Row currentRow = iterator.getCurrentRow();+
    if ( currentRow.getAttribute("StartDate") == null)+
    currentRow.setAttribute("StartDate", calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());+
    if (currentRow.getAttribute("EndDate")==null)+
    currentRow.setAttribute("EndDate", calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());+
    *}*

  • MacBook Pro 3.1 batter at 27% health at full charge. Time for new 1?

    My macbook pro 3.1 (since 2007) original battery says "service" and has a health of 24% (istat pro) at a full charge with 204 cycles.
    Have PRAMed, SMCed, disk first aided and hardware checked. All is well with the machine except the battery which suddenly die without warning.
    Is it time for a new battery? Any comments?

    Usually when it gives the service message the battery has given up the ghost and needs to be replaced.
    If you are in fact running a PPC G4 that is a battery you can replace yourself.  If you have a newer MB with a battery you can't just poop out you should take it in to the Apple store and have it replaced. You can get a replacement for the pop in type at Apple, Best buy, Amazon, or search online. I purchased one years ago AGPTEK for a 2006 MBP that my kid uses and it is still working fine.

  • Time for new battery

    My white 13" macbook needs a new battery. Any info on who sells the original battery at a discount (apple price is $129). Or any opinions on maybe buying a third party battery? Thanks!

    CAUTION: Don't purchase a McVolt battery from Battery Hippo. From what I can tell Battery Hippo is possibly a front company for fraud. They never answer their phone, nor do they respond to email complaints and their website return request. Battery Hippo sells McVolt batteries that are alleged to be new high capacity (5600mAh) for a discount.
    After receiving the "new" battery, it only charged to 5200mAh according to System Profile. Thinking that it just needed to be discharged and recharged a few times to get to maximum capacity (as the instructions suggested), I "recalibrated" the battery five times. With each subsequent discharge and recharge, the battery lost more storage capacity - down to 4200 mAh on the last attempt.
    When I tried to contact Battery Hippo, I found out they don't answer the phone, return voicemail, or respond to email. After a frustrating week, I submitted an on-line request to return the battery. They never approved my return request, so I had to send it back without a return authorization. I'M NOW IN THE MIDDLE OF A VISA DISPUTE. BUYING FROM THIS VENDOR WAS A VERY COSTLY MISTAKE: ABOUT 10 HOURS OF ATTEMPTING TO GET THEM OR VISA TO RETURN MY MONEY (GOING ON SINCE SEPTEMBER 24), AND I STILL DON'T HAVE RESOLUTION.
    ONCE I GET THIS DISPUTE RESOLVED, I'M GOING TO THE APPLE STORE. I KNOW THEY WOULD TAKE CARE OF A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT.

  • FIRST CHARGING TIME FOR NOKIA E61i BATTERY

    Hi everybody, please i like to know how long i can charge my Nokia E61i before use. I mean the first charge.
    Thanks.

    hello darry,
    yes, that's what the vendors use to suggest me, otherwise the battery may not reach it's full potential. I had no problems with batteries till now.
    My E65 also has a Li-Polymer battery, I first charged it for 14 hours (they reccomend 12 to 16) and it works for 6-7 days in normal use (Bluetooth and WLAN off, about 40 min talking/day + 50 sms's/day + occasional web browsing via WLAN)
    I think mine really lasts longer than some of the people who posted here some problems regarding battery life.

  • HT4060 what is the charging time of new iPad 4th gen??

    Hi have bought a new iPad 4th Generation. it takes more than 3 hrs to full charge even when i use its 10W adapter supplied with box. How much time exactly iPad takes to full charge??

    That's a lot faster than most users report. Usually overnight.
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • Data Issues with New Curve 8900 on ATT

    Hi, I just got this Blackberry Curve 8900 yesterday for ATT, and it's my first Blackberry. Everything was working fine up until earlier today when I realized that my data wasn't working properly. The data will work with certain apps, but certain apps with also not connect. My e-mail and BB Messenger also will not connect. The only way for me to get them to work is if I connect to wifi, but other than that on my EDGE the majority won't connect.
    Here is a list of apps i've compiled that shows what works with what: 
    -Works with Data & WiFi- 
    BB Browser
    iheartradio
    FML
    poynt
    -Won't Work with Data but will work with WiFi-
    BB E-Mail
    BB Messenger
    BB App World 
    Facebook
    Twitterberry
    Myspace
    Google Maps
    I went to Manage Connections, and Mobile Network Options and my data is set to on, and i've done muliple battery pulls to no avail. When I turn on my WiFi all my emails and alerts that I missed come rushing in. For example I resent a Service Book to my device and I did not receive that until my WiFi was turned on. My "EDGE" is in capital letters so i'm receiving data.
    Can someone please help me solve this frustrating topic? It really is mind boggling.
    Thanks!
    Stephen B. 

    You have a BlackBerry Data plan right? I'm assuming so since it works sometimes
    Also if you notice when the Wi-Fi is off, if you go into Manage Connections | Service Status does the BlackBerry Internet Service say it's connected to the Mobile Network? Or if you go into Mobile Network Options can you run a Diagnostics Test and see if it sees that your data is connected?

  • Whats the average charging time for the ipad air?

    just charged a new ipad air for the first time and it took 11 hours, is that normal???

    You can increase the speed of the charge if you turn off all Blue Tooth and Wi-fy and leave it in Air plane mode. It really made a huge difference in my charging time, even if I was reading a book on it. If you don't need Blue Tooth leave it off.

  • Battery charging time of N72

    My cell( Nseries) is almost a month old and i still need to charge it for 3 hours duration for full battery ( from an empty one) i am using genuine nokia charger. ( which has input of 230V around.
    why is it taking so long?
    How much time your nokia( specify model no.) takes to get fully charged??

    You can buy it off ebay for £5.
    It's basically a torch with a built in mobile phone charger in it. Here's apicture of it Korn.
    http://www.naturalcollection.com/images/newproducts/14529-10.jpg
    That picture is what it exactly what it looks like and mine looks like that.
    Basically if you wind it slowly for 1 minute it gives 40 minutes of bright ( and i mean bright) light.
    1 minute of slow winding also gives 15 minutes of phone standby but more depending on if using 3G or 2G bluetooth etc.
    If you want to buy one go on ebay, Put in 'wind up torch'.
