Battery Problem

[cstraub11]

All of a sudden yesterday, my main battery crapped out. It went to 0% and shut down the PDA. Now, if I plug it up, it will say charging, but it never goes above 0%. Any ideas?

It could be the charger or cradle, but it's most likely the battery. Unfortunately the only way to know is the swap it out. I once bought a new battery for the X5 and found that the AC adapter that was the problem after I threw out the old battery.

Cstraub11,

Try leaving it on charge overnight. Sometimes the battery needs more time to charge. Perhaps it was drained too low. When this happens, the charger cannot charge it. Do not charge it with the USB plug. Connect the cradle/charger directly to an AC plug. This will give more charging power to the battery.

Let us know if you get it to work.
