TX Won't Fully Charge

My TX will only charge up to 90%.  I've done soft resets while in the cradle and while connected only to the charger.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?  Thanks!!!

Both of you, try an "in-cradle reset".  Named for older devices, just plug your TX into the charger and press the Reset button.  This should reset the charging circuitry levels.
Your TX can run low quickly if left connected to a Wifi source, or BlueTooth is left on, the screen is set to extremely bright, or you have a program that is constantly trying to update itself, or email settings that tell the TX to "grab email every 5 minutes", etc.
Turning Beam Receive OFF (in the Prefs Icon/Power section) also helps battery life.

  • 2 month new Zen Micro, won't fully charge via

    I have the zen micro 5gb and here's what been happening
    Up until the last month the micro would charge up just fine. Now, it won't charge past one bar and it does show the charging icon in the upper right hand corner.
    My USB connections are USB 2.0 at work and home and it won't fully charge. I ran the battery completely out of juice to try a fresh charge approach. I know the micro is getting power because it will run while plugged into my usb cable.
    Oh yeah, recently, after the water drop on the screen, it usually loads the zen micro logo, then rolls right to the now playing screen. Recently, it sticks for about 0 seconds, and the touch pad is inacti've.
    Before I deal with taking it back to BestBuy, I figured I'd see if there's anything I can try before.

    Wow, I didn't know i had to have it in locked position for it to charge, b/c the charge indicator was always showing like it was charging, but no pulsing.
    You don't have to, but if your USB power is marginal it ensures that ALL the power is dedicated to charge the player.
    I just switched it to lock and it is pulsing. When I'm at work I have to use my usb connection to charge and I can't load the driver onto my work machine. If it is not pulsing, is it only just using the usb for power?
    It's only using the USB power for the data connection.
    What's the deal with the pusling?
    It shows the player is charging.
    Also, what's the benefit of upgrading the firmware to v2?
    See the link "the difference between the Zen Micro v and v2 firmware" in the FAQ post.

  • Ipod mini won't fully charge

    I was having problems with my battery life a couple of months ago but the problem seemed to corrected once I updated my software. Now, even after charging overnight, the mini isn't fully charged...it fills up a little bit, but never fully. Any ideas why and/or how to fix this problem?

  • Nano won't fully charge

    When I connect my IPod Nano to my PC the charging symbol and "Do Not Disconnect" message appear for about a minute, the disappear; but my battery life is still in the red. Why won't my player charge? Is it a problem with my battery or connection?

    Kate- after the DO NOT DISCONNECT icon dissappears, if you leave the iPod plugged you should see a battery icon with a green bar moving back and forth indicating that your iPod is charging. IF you do not see this icon, chances are your USB port is not a high powered hub. If this is the case you need to purchase a USB Charger to charge your iPod. Hope this helps....

  • My nokia lumia 900 won't fully charge

    Ok this started happenig like two weeks ago and i dont really know why, my lumia only charges like 40% sometimes 25% OVERNIGHT, it starts charging in a normal way and when it gets in 40% stops charging even when the icon still flashing it doesnt charges anymore and even if i have it plug into the Wall the battery life starts to going down, i dont know what to do, im kinda tired of this phone.....Do you guys know what can be the problem, how to fix it or what do i have to do next? Please help

    Did something happen to your phone prior to this issue, m3t4lcor3? Have you tried using other compatible USB cables and wall chargers to verify if the issue is phone or charger related? Does this issue happen when a specific app or task is left running in the background while charging? 
    You can try resetting your Lumia 900. Press and hold the power and volume down keys simultaneously until you feel the phone vibrate. You may need to set the date and time on the phone after this. Note that this does not remove any settings or your personal content. Make sure that your phone's software is updated as well.

  • IPhone 4 not fully charging.

    No matter how long I charge my iPhone, it won't fully charge. I charge it every night while I sleep, for at least 8 hours. Whenever I look at it in the morning, it varies how much it has charged by the morning. Sometimes it will charge to 95% and other times it will only charge to 53% and I have to unplug and replug it in order for it to charge more. I'm margin via the wall charger given with the iPhone 4. Has anyone has this problem ? Do I have a defect In my phone or could it be the charger?

    There are several things you can try to fix it. Try in this order:
    1) Press and Hold the Home and Wake Sleep buttons until the Apple Logo appears.
    2) If that doesn't work, try a reset, To reset go to Settings, General, Reset, Reset.
    3) Try a different cable and charging block.
    4) Restore via itunes.
    If none of these work, take it to the apple store for testing and corrective action. Make sure you take your charging cable and block. You can make an appointment on line at: www.apple.com/retail. Search for your local store and there, you can make an on-line appointment.
    Hope this helps.....

  • I updated to iOS 8 on my iPhone 5c and now it won't turn on and I know it was fully charged any ideas?

    Have updated my iPhone 5c to iOS 8 and restored it and now it won't turn on.  I have tried plugging it in even though I know it was fully charged, I have shut down my rebooted my computer and iTunes from scratch and reconnected my phone and still nothing, any ideas?

    Hello Nikmuz,
    It sounds like your screen is either black so it looks like it is not on, or it is just plain not turning on at all and it is also not being recognized in iTunes. I would recommend the followng troubleshooting from this article to help you determine whether that is the case or not, named:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
    While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • My iphone was fully charged and now it won't turn on or do anything

    My iphone was fully charged and now it won't turn on or do anything

    I'm sorry, it seems that the problem is that my phone WON'T restore. I just tried restoring again and it keeps giving me the 2001 error. Help.

  • My iphone won't switch on. I've tried holding the power and home button more than 30 seconds up to a few minutes but it didn't switch on and went straight to recovery mode. It died of a low battery and i already fully charged it i checked with my itunes.

    i really need help here. I have only used my iphone for a month. my iphone won't switch on. it died of a low battery and i've already fully charged it and usually before it even fully charged, it will turn back on right but in my case nothing happened. i've tried holding the power and home button for 30 seconds and up to 2-3 minutes but no logo appear. it went straight to recovery mode. there's nothing wrong with my cable, i checked with itunes and  this happened once a week ago but it did switch back on after i tried a few times but now it just won't switch on. i also have problems with my screen as there's some noises to the screen (i hope you get me) and when i turned the camera on, it was as if the whole screen is shaking. i'm currently studying in the middle east and there's no apple store here so i cannot use my warranty. i will only be back home in summer. please help me what should i do to at least switch my iphone on first.

    I did a little bit of experimenting. I have an iPad original versions myself. I took it out of the box knowing that I haven used it in months and I expected the battery to be dead and sure enough the battery was as dead as I imagined it would be. For the first 30 minutes I experienced exactly what you are experiencing, but then the iPad suddenly powered up on its own (like it does when plugged into the charger) and I am using it now to type this response to you.
    My point is that I am starting tothink that your battery has suddenly died on you for some reason or you have a hardware problem now. I would still try leaving the iPad charge for a while longer - maybe even overnight - and then try again in the morning. Unplug the iPad and try resetting with the home and sleep buttons. Try plugging the iPad in again. Unplug it, try restarting again. Let it charge for a while again.
    After trying something like that, if it still will not start up, then I think it's time for a trip to an Apple Store and see what the Apple Techs think.

  • Lenovo G510 won't start when battery is on and it's fully charged

    Hi there. I have my Lenovo g510 i5 notebook for 10 months, and my battery is wrong. I haven't used it on battery too much, but when I used it, I empty all of it and then charged it when it's turned down. Couple of days ago, the battery was empty I put it to charge, the orange light appears that it's charging, and day after when I put the battery on the notebook won't start, but with the battery and adapter start normally and show that the battery is 100% (fully charged). Why I can't use it on battery? Please help me.

    Hi Kocevski_91,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community!
     As per the query we understood that you are facing issue with system not starting with battery in your G510 laptop.
    Please remove the battery and connect only adapter and check for the issue, also try to perform a power drain by removing all the external devices connected to the devices and shutdown the system, now remove battery and adapter, press and hold the power button for 30 seconds, connect battery and adapter and check for the issue.
    If still the issue persist, perform battery gauge reset, go to power manager select advance mode and select battery tab and click on battery maintenance under this option click perform under battery gauge option. Please perform and reply with results.
    Hope this helps. Do post back if issue persists!
