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.

    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.

  • 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?

    Wow long time ago to find a thread...
    Hold the power and home button while connected to your computer for 10 seconds. Then release JUST the power button and continue holding the home button and iTunes should recongnise the device in recovery and then hit restore and iTunes will proceed to wipe the phone and restore to the latest iOS your device can go too.

    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.

  • I updated to Yosemite, now my laptop keyboard does not work in MS Word for Mac. Help!

    I updated to Yosemite, now my laptop keyboard does not work in MS Word for Mac. Help! Any suggestions for fixing this?

    Did you ever get a solution to your problem? Because I am having the same problem. I was actually in the middle of using Word when the keyboard stopped working. But it works in other apps, including in Excel.
    Thing is that my laptop just got back from Apple for repairs and they replaced everything but the display - including the hard drive.
    So not only do I have plenty of hard drive space, but it should be virus and error free otherwise.
    I have only installed a few programs and redownloaded some of my files from places like Dropbox, but otherwise is essentially a new system.
    Oh - and it came with Yosemite, so I did not upgrade to Yosemite and still Word doesn't work.
    I've always had trouble getting Word to play nice with my Mac but that was also with the old, full hard drive.
    This is a fresh install. And since I lost all my files, I only had like 1 old file I have downloaded from email and accessed and was in the process of
    creating a new file when it crashed. I got no error, the keyboard just stopped working (to type). I also cannot even get Word > Preferences to even open,
    so it is completely unresponsive.
    I did a Google search and under the Microsoft communities two suggestions to that person were that there may be multiple copies installed -
    I have only the one - and that one is in the wrong place - again, I only have the one and it installed to the Hard drive (visible in Launchpad / Apps).
    Another suggestion was that there was some problem with the updates. I ran updates and they installed fine. That helper suggested that the user
    may have had different updates that worked for the other Office apps (Excel, PPT etc.) but not Word and that was at least part, if not all of his problem,
    but all my Office apps show the same update version 12.3.6, so that cannot be the issue with me.
    I've not yet tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but as I got no errors on the original install or updates, I'm not sure if that would fix it.
    I've found that Mac just doesn't play nice with some programs at all.
    And even though I have a factory installed version of Yosemite on a new, fresh hard drive, even when I booted up, my iPhoto app (which is empty) crashed. I am not sure if my iPhone or iPad was charging at the time, but I don't think so. iPhoto that I still have not even used has crashed several more times since, most notably when plugging in my iPhone / iPad to charge, namely when I declined to upload photos (by default) to DropBox. That may not be related at all, but thus far seems the only other problem I have encountered until this Word problem.
    I'm on a MacBook Pro, Sept. 2009, running OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 factory installed from Apple repairs running Office: 2008 for Mac (Home and Student edition).
    Please advise if you found a resolution and what it was.
    Thanks

  • 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).

  • Battery shows charging but stuck on 28% and does not hold charge

    i am using HP DV6-6107tx, i got a new extended battery from anker which seemed to be running fine untill it discharged while i was playing watch dogs.
    now my laptop wouldn't power on just on the battery, everything works fine if it is on charging, but the battery does not hold charge and my system powers off immediately on removing AC adapter. the battery shows "28% Charging" but does not increase or decrease the percentage even after hours of charging both while system is on and off.
    i checked the battery in battery test from HP Support Assistant and it says that the battery status is ok, now i have tried the below methods with no luck :
    power off and press power button methods.
    uninstall and reinstall battery from device manager methods.
    battery check from HP Assistant.
    updating Bios to F.1b method.
    updating the HP Support Assistant.
    and all the other methods i could think of or read on HP's site.
    can anyone guide me as to what is the issue here ?       i don't have another machine to test my battery on, the charging lights are fine except that the light does not change color which it did on full charging the battery. i did try on 2 different adapters.
    now if it were a motherboard or IC issue, would it not have said 'not charging' in windows ? in my case it says charging.
    any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello, M_Bilal
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    That you for provided such a detailed post with what you've already completed, for the issue with your battery. I will try to guide you further.
    I would like to provide you further documents for troubleshooting, but you've essentially completed what I have for this issue. The only step left, would be to test the battery.
    You can do this with another battery, or in another notebook. I know you mention another machine, but if you know someone who does or someone who has a compatible battery. This would test that. You could even see if a local computer shop could test it.
    The reason for this, is if the battery is the problem, it's much easier and more affordable replacement. Also, you mention it being new, might have warranty.
    The other possible cause to the issue you've touched on, that would be the system board. Testing the above, would just confirm if this is the problem or not. From there you could decide on what you'd like to do.
    I know, there really aren't many suggestions here, but I hope this can provide you with the next step.
    Let me know how things go, with the route you choose to troubleshoot.
    Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

  • My ipod is not starting its turn on but looks like sync. and does not stop

    My ipod is not starting its turn on but looks like sync. and does not stop and screen is black

    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 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.

  • I have a new Macbook pro, about 2 months old, and at times running video, the fans starts and does not stop. how do you get it to stop.

    I have a new Macbookbook, about 2 months old, and at times running video, the fans starts and does not stop. how do you get it to stop. Also i am thinking once the video is done  the fan should be slowing down and getting quiet on its own.

    Your fan(s) will run at high speed (i.e., loudly) while video is playing, and you can't get around that.
    If your fans are not slowing down within 2-4 minutes after CPU- and/or GPU-intensive usage ends, and the application that was showing the video is still running, Quit that application. (In fact, if you're accustomed to Windows, you may not realize that simply closing a Mac application's window does not quit the application. You still need to use the Quit command in the application-name menu. There will always be a bright dot beside or below the application icon in your Dock for each application that is open.) Quit the ones you aren't using, and see whether that allows the fans to slow down without restarting the machine. If that doesn't do the trick, reset the SMC:

  • I am part of a family sharing setup.  Can I have my own payment method so the organizer does not get charged for my purchases?

    I am part of a family sharing setup.  Can I have my own payment method so the organizer does not get charged for my purchases?  If so, how do I set this up?

    Yes.  Just redeem gift cards so that your own account always has a sufficient credit balance.  Here is how it works:
    Family purchases and payments
    After you set up your family, any time a family member initiates a new purchase it will be billed directly to your account unless that family member has gift or store credit. First, their store credit will be used to pay the partial or total bill. The remainder will bill to the family organizer's card.
