so, for the last 2 months I have been getting the annoying "battery latch open" message. Sometimes if I put the axim in a certain position it gives me that error above. then it hadnt happened for a while. I get home from work yesterday AM (working nights) and the axim will not turn on. It isnt locked so I lock it and charge it. take it off the charger and get it to boot up. it shows me the windows mobile screen and goes blank. try putting pressure on the back plate and i get some vertical lines and then nothing. Put it in the charger and it charges as if the battery was dead. So i put in the one that was fully charged. same thing happens. since that time the farthest it can get is fully booted so it looks like i can use it and then it dies and needs to recharge. obviously this seems like a battery problem. but with both batteries not working I think it is the axim itself. conceivably it could be the charger i guess...
i dont have another axim to test my batteries in unfortunately. this is annoying b/c i need it for work :(
so any ideas?
i am going to call dell tomorrow after I sleep a little in the AM but any ideas would be great
this is an x50v :)
now to find my extended warranty info
