Lumia920 losing battery while charging (while usin...

As title, I have turned off all background applications, 3G, and put phone into battery saver mode. The phone was charging with USB power and only serve as a GPS in my car running Nokia Drive. And I found the power was dropped by 20%in within two hours. This is unacceptable.

Using nokia drive or any maps is a high battery consumer and charging via usb in car does not provide as much power as per home charging from wall.
If i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.
Now using the Lumia 1520

Fully charged ipod losing battery while off

I have a Nano. When I shut it off after fully charging, and put the hold button on, the next day when I turn it on the battery is low. What is going on?

Have you tried just not putting the hold button on when the iPod is off?

IPod touch 5thgen losing battery while turned off??

I've noticed upon receiving my new 5th Gen iPod touch that the battery life seems ridicuously poor. I have to charge it almost every day even with no apps running in the background, bluetooth off, no fetching, wifi off when not in use and only playing music for about 40 mins a day. Another wierd thing is that my ipods Usage says 15,740 days, 23 hours and Standby says 15,741 days, 10 hours ... I only got this ipod at christmas time!! Also, my messages app sometimes freezes after a few seconds of typing and I have to reset again and again to ever get the message out.
Some help would be greatly appreciated

Also, when I have about a third of battery left and then fully turn off my iPod for the night, I wake up to find that it is completely drained and won't turn on at all.

Do you gotta plug up your iPod 5 gen while it's updatting to ios8? Because I updated mine and it won't stay charged plus it's losing battery life very fast.

Your using more energy to play WOW and there isn't any to charge the battery.
You do have a overly unnecessary, power hungry, excessively high resolution screen with a bloated OS X version and your also playing 3D games on it, that's what you should expect to occur.

Empty DVD drive spins and hums while battery is charging

This is odd and specific: When the battery runs down on my Powerbook and goes to sleep, I plug in the charger and the DVD drive starts spinning. It gives a continuous hum, despite being empty, which stops when I sleep the computer. When I reawaken it, it hums again. It takes three or four times of waking and sleeping before the DVD drive finally stops spinning. Pressing the Eject button does nothing and the drive has no media in it. It only does it while the battery is charging; once it's charged, unplugging and replugging does nothing. Any idea what's up? How to get it to stop? Thanks!

Arvin: Are you quite certain there's no disc in the drive? Nearly all of the vibration that you feel and the sound that you hear when an optical drive is operating normally is caused by the disc itself being minutely (or sometimes not so minutely) unbalanced. There should be far less noise and vibration without any disc in the drive, because only the drive motor is spinning. Of course without a disc in the drive, the motor shouldn't be spinning at all — as you know.
Start your Powerbook up from a cold shutdown while holding the mouse button down. Keep holding it; if there's a disc in the drive, it should be ejected before the computer starts up. If that yields no results, try (very gently) inserting a disc into the drive. If it inserts normally, you were right: the drive is empty. It shouldn't be spinning, and I don't know why it is.
If the disc runs into something and won't go in, don't push it: there's already a disc in the drive, and now the problem becomes how to get it out. I'm betting there is indeed a disc in there that you've forgotten about, and that isn't being ejected. Failure to eject a disc using any of the standard methods suggests a mechanical failure of the drive, which will need to be replaced if it can't be persuaded to behave.
The disc, if there's one in there, can be manually recovered in the course of replacing the drive — a fairly simple do-it-yourself job for anyone who isn't all thumbs and can follow directions.

Using battery while charging

Pretty much the headline.
When im using my Macbook Pro 15" late 2011, for gaming, its using battery while the charger is pluged in.

If your charger is working right, it is NOT using your battery while gaming and connected to the charger.
As for gaming on battery:
You shouldnt do that a LOT because it causes RAPID discharge of the battery
See 3B below::
General consideration of your MacBook battery
Contrary to popular myths about notebook batteries, there is protection circuitry in your Macbook and therefore you cannot ‘overcharge’ your notebook when plugged in and already fully charged.
However if you do not plan on using your notebook for several hours, turn it off (plugged in or otherwise), since you do not want your Macbook ‘both always plugged in and in sleep mode’.
Do not perform “battery calibration” on your current Macbook. There is no calibration of current Apple portable Macbooks with built-in batteries.
A lot of battery experts call the use of Lithium-Ion cells the "80% Rule", meaning use 80% of the full charge or so, then recharge them for longer overall life. The main quantified damage done in the use of Lithium Ion batteries are instances where the internal notebook battery is “often drained very low”, this is bad general use of your notebook battery.
All batteries in any device are a consumable meant to be replaced eventually after much time, even under perfect use conditions.
If the massive amount of data that exists on lithium batteries were to be condensed into a simplex, helpful, and memorable bit of information it would be:
1. While realistically a bit impractical during normal everyday use, a lithium battery's longevity and its chemistry's health is most happy swinging back and forth between 20% and 85% charge roughly.
2. Do not purposefully drain your battery very low (10% and less), and do not keep them charged often or always high (100%).
3. Lithium batteries do not like the following:
A: Deep discharges, as meaning roughly 10% or less. Avoid this in all instances if you can. This is hard on your battery.
B: Rapid discharges as referring to energy intensive gaming on battery on a frequent basis (in which case while gaming, if possible, do same on power rather than battery).
C: Constant inflation, as meaning always or most often on charge, and certainly not both in sleep mode and on charge always or often.

IPhone 4s loses battery while charging?

In the past week or week and a half, I noticed that my iPhone acutally loses battery while charging. I use my phone as an alarm clock so I plug it in overnight to be fully charged by the morning. I noticed it when I plugged it in one night at about 80%, I woke up and it was 20-30%. This has happened consistently every night since it started, not always to 20% but around 60% or slightly higher. I've tried charging to outlet I used, turning off my wifi overnight, taking the case off at night and closing all of my apps so there is nothing running in the background. I even turn my brightness all the way down. I have no idea what's wrong and nothing is able to fix it. My phone isn't new, it's about three years old (I got it a few months after the 4S came out originally). Is the phone just getting old and needs to be replaced or does it need to be sent back to Apple to be looked at or have the battery replaced?

Charging the battery means doing work on the battery and does produce heat. How much heat is the quesion. Is your iPhone to hot to handle or is it just getting warm? Warm is normal, and if you feel the charger it will also be warm while charging.
If the iPhone is too hot to handle, that is not normal and should be checked out by an Apple tech at an Apple store genius bar.

Satellite A30: while AC adapter is connected the battery stops charging

Using a Satellite A30 about three years old. Recent problem is that while the power adapter is connected the battery stops charging, the orange battery indicator goes off.
If you look at the Power Management Utility the battery poweer meter reads On Line, Discharging %
To get it to charge I either have to turn the machine off (completely or to hibernate) then remove the power cable and reinsert, then the battery light comes back on. When restarting the battery will start to charge up for a while and then for no apparent reason start to discharge.
If left the battery reaches 0% - the machine continues to operate while the power cable is inserted so its getting power ok, but of course starts to bleep when it gets below 10%. To get it going again I have to shut down and restart etc.
I have checked the bios and have the latest version.
I have cleaned around the heat exchanger the power socket and removed all fluff.
I am using a generic adapter as the original failed, but as far as I can tell its working normally.
Any thoughts
Richard

Hi Richard,
Your problem is being caused by a loose connection where the AC adapter is connected to the socket on the back of your notebook. Any slight movement of the cable causes a momentary loss of contact and the power management electronics in the notebook are fooled into beleiving that the battery is no longer available, whereupon the battery light will extinguish and the notebook will revert to battery power even though the AC adapter is connected. As you have already discovered, powering off the notebook will return everything to normal.
I have experienced the very same situation with my A30-141 and have yet to find a solution other than to resort to powering off the notebook, but I have managed to prevent the problem from occurring by clamping the AC cable to the back of the notebook so that there is no risk of the power plug flexing so as to trigger the problem in the first place. This has been remarkably successful to date and I have not experienced the problem for several months now.
Obviously this is not a 'cure' for the problem but it does ease the frustration that it causes.
regards,

Battery Not Charging While Computer Is On

I have a Presario cq50z-100. The wire on the AC adapter was ripped open broken wires were exposed. I never put the broken charger in the laptop. Two weeks ago I bought a new charger and have been having a lot of problems. The charger is certified to work with my computer, has the same connector, and the same voltage. It can power the computer, but while the computer is on it wont charge. The battery icon reads plugged in and charging, but there is a red x over it, it doesn't actually charge, and the battery LED on the computer flashes. However while the computer is off the LED stays lit and the battery charges. I've already updated the drivers and messed with power options I could find.

Hi JackFission,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I would like to take a moment and thank you for using the forum, it is a great place to find answers. For you to have the best experience in the HP forum, I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I see you are having an issue charging the battery and are getting an error message about the smart adapter. If you are getting the error ""The smart AC adapter connected will power your computer, but potentially at a reduced performance level." there seems to be an issue with it. That is most likely the reason for it not charging the battery while awake, as it is affecting the performance.

Using phone while battery is charging

This is probably a stupid question from a novice cell phone user, but here it is. I have an LG Cosmos touch. Can I turn on the phone and use it while the battery is charging or can I disconnect it before it has fully charged so that I can use it? I am having trouble anticipating when it will need to be charged and then find myself without a phone when I have to stop and charge it.

There are no stupid questions - and yours is a good one!
The newer Li-Ion cell phone batteries do not have "memory", so partial charges or "topping off" a charge do not have the same effect as with the older NiMh or NiCad batteries (and there is debate over the NiMh memory effect as well, but that's another topic!) Yes, you can use the phone with a partial charge.
It's probably better to fully charge the phone each night, or every other night if it gets you through two days. If, like my BB, it lasts about a day and a half, just charge it each night, so you start each day with a full charge.
And I do use my phone when it is on the charger if I have to; I've heard advice both ways (it's ok and don't do it!)
HTH,

Satallite Pro L300-1AQ wont charge battery while laptop is in use

I have a Toshiba SP L300-1AQ.
In the last month we have started having problems with it shutting down unexpectedly, even when on mains power.
This morning I used it for about half an hour. When I started the battery level was 39% full, so I plugged it into the mains. The mains light on the front of the laptop came on and the task bar icon in Windows showed that it was plugged in and charging (battery light was orange).
After half an hour I checked the battery level and it was down to 16%. I turned down the brightness of the screen to try to reduce power usage, but within a minute the battery level was down to 15%. The task bar icon and power light both still showing mains power. The power adapter was cold to the touch. I would have expected it to be warm. It seems to me the power adapter is not providing enough power to run the laptop and charge the battery. If the laptop is in sleep mode the battery will charge.
Do we need a new power adapter?
Thanks
Nigel

Hi
Its really hard to say what the reason is but first of all I think its hardware issue and not software related.
Maybe the mainboard doesnt charge the battery problem anymore or the AC/DC adaptor is faulty. So can you test another AC/DC adaptor from a friend for example? This would be interesting to know because if another AC/DC adaptor works it seems to be a problem of the mainboard.
I dont have Satellite Pro L300, I have only Satellite L300 but it works really good and I cant notice a problem with charging the battery. Its all ok as yet :)

Can the apple stores replace a battery while you wait?

The battery on my MBA - late 2011, has lost it's ability to hold a good charge and I'm looking to replace the battery. If I go to an Apple Store, can they replace the battery while I wait or would it be shipped out for replacement the same as if I took it to a local authorized repair center?

So I was finally able to get through to the store, but they didn't provide any meaningful help - they can't tell me if they can replace the part without a consultation first.
It strikes me as odd, since I can give them the problem I'm having (need a new battery), the serial number (though AppleCare confirmed they have the parts at the store), so I would expect that they could tell me if I drop it off by X they can have the battery replaced the same day.
Honestly this is the first disappointing experience I've had trying to get Apple support for an issue on one of my systems.

Dv8315nr drops to battery while plugged in, especially under load

Have the dv8315nr and it keeps dropping to battery while plugged in, especially when the PC is under load, such as games or using CD drive. The power block is ok, it has been tested with other power blocks and the issue still happens. If you unplug the power at the pc and plug it back in, it will (most of the time) go back into a charging state. I sent to hp while under the extended warranty and they sent it back with the diagnosis of "battery was bad, needed new battery".....and it worked ok until just out of warranty then started again.
I don't think it's the battery, since it happens with or without the battery in place (of course it dies completely when the power drops w/o battery in).
Has anyone experienced this and if so, have a method to fix it? I suspect there is a hardware problem with the power supply in the laptop.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

It sounds like the beginning stages of a bad power jack. That is the place where you insert the AC adapter into the laptop. The problem is very common and requires that a new jack be installed. Fortunately for you, the dv8000 has the power jack as a separate plug-in module...it does not require soldering just removal and replacement.
Here is an internet ad for a company that does the repair. I am not suggesting you hire them but they do post some nice pictures of the internal workings of the dv8000 series so you can understand what I am writing about. The repair job is only modestly hard; not nearly as bad as if soldering were needed. The part is readily available.
