Discovered this ages ago but didn't think to post it till it happened recently. My Axim X50v would not switch on, thought the battery was dead so shoved it in the cradle and let it charge fully and the axim still failed to turn on so out of frustration I held down the power button and about 10 seconds of holding it down it started. Its worked several times since when a normal quick press didn't work :hide:


Just to clarify: The battery had drained to nothing so had the back up battery which upon charging the main battery and installing it the axim would still not switch on, even when putting it in the cradle and charging both the main and backup batteries, it would not turn on, hard reset and soft reset would also not work. So holding down the power button switched it on and it booted like it had been reset or hard reset even though it had not.
