I can charge both of my not-brand new batteries in the phone stand.
The light on the stand goes from flashing to full on, indicating full charge.
Plug them into the the pda-phone and the phone works.
While consulting the system settings power page with the battery
bar charts, I get 100% when I first plug them in.
If I apply power to the phone connector from either the stand or a
charger cord, I get the same answer.
1) At first, the orange power light is on solid then flashes --as expected
2) The display gets brighter--expected, it is set up that way
3) Over main battery bar: "Recharging state:" Charging --expected.
BUT: The charge state slowly goes down till the battery is exhausted
and the thing shuts itself off.
Both batteries behave the same.
My thoughts: Either a hardware failure or someone has applied a hack
that has busted this function.
Had that happened to me. I used an Ebay supplier. When I used an original HP supplier everything was perfect. Then I bought this junk Ebay supplier - once it charged my battery and the other time drained it over night. Until I cought it - dumped it right away.
Get an original charger from Ebay - it will fix your problem. The reason it works in the cradle is probably because your original supplier is connected there.
The HP cradle powers the unit--looks nomal--shows a charge.
meanwhile, while showing the charge the 6315 battery runs down sand the
unit shuts off. Bill
I'm having the exact same problem. With a little use both batteries are going to shut down mode with the 5 4 3 2 1. It's annoying as hell and unpredictable. I have no clue what it is. I thought for a second that it has to do with the Standby Setup, but I dunno for sure.
There is something on my side though, that I should share. This started happening after I put in the new battery (which is a Chinese aftermarket thing) from Ebay. I don't know if it is the reason though for sure, because it happened days after the first time I put it in, and now it's doing that one thing where it says, "Main Battery Power" is whatever, and it must shutdown to save information. When I remove the battery, and restart the Ipaq, then it shows that there's 77% battery life or more sometimes.
I had the same problem. I have fixed it by replacing a cracked component on the motherboard. It is an inductor (not really sure, marked as Lxx) which is near to the charge connector. This SMD component oriented as such that bending the PCB (by wiggling the charging connector) will put a lot stress on it. It is the first component that takes the power feed from the connector. If you measure the resistance with a multimeter, it should normally be close zero ohms. In my case, it is 30 ohms. Another design problem from HP!!!
I have another h6365 motherboard to take the spare component off. I think you should be able to replace it with a wire link since the inductor is just for noise filtering.
I opened the unit and checked everything that looked like
an inductor. PL1, PL4. These both look like components in
switching power supply and had 0 ohm continuity. They weren't
real near the conntector.
I manged to get it together again and it works
with the same symptoms. So I'm still looking!! Thanks, Bill Hale
See the attached pic for the location of the component that I have replaced. For me the fault was intermittent initially, if I push the charge connector slightly toward front(lcd side), it will stop charging. And finally, the unit stopped charging totally. If you have a look the location of the cracked component, you can see that’s why, the pressure from the connector would encourage the cracking on the component.
