XDA 11 won't Charge

Hi can someone please help, My XDA 11 won't charge, or make any connection in it's dock, can someone tell me where I can get it repaired, Thanks a lot ,

Try taking it to any O2 shop, they have a special device for quick charging the battery without going through the XDA. It happened to mine a while ago i thought the battery was dead so went to get a replacement, but they put my battery in this charging unit and it came back to life :?

re not charging
Hi, thanks for your advice, but I don't think that the problem is with the battery, as i have a spare battery and have charged the battery in the aux/battery charger in the dock so both batterys are fully charged, the problem is with the connector to the mother board at the bottom of my pda, so it won't connect to my computure, Activesync, or charge, but i'll call in to the O2 shop and see what they have to say..... Thanks. :?

Qtek 2020 - Can't recharge the battery

Hello,
I bought a second hand Qtek 2020. The seller didn't have a cradle, but he gave me a USB sync/charge cable and a AC plug with USB slot. So I insert the one end of the cable to the PDA, one end to the plug and I recharge.
The device came with 90% charge and I could easily charge it to 100%. Today, I ran it down to 0% and now I can't recharge it!! Every time I turn the device off and plug everything in, it starts to recharge. The led on top shows red. It charges for about a minute and the device wakes up. The red light turns yellow. It says on the screen that the device is still charging but the meter is stuck at 0%!!!
I've been trying for hours but I can't even get to 1%. Maybe it would be better if I had a cradle but that's not an option now. Besides, it recharged beatifully yesterday.
I have a feeling that if I can stop the device from waking up automatically when charging, I can recharge fully, but I don't know how.
Any help will be very appreciated.

Update
Here's a quick update. It's gone from bad to worse. Now I only have a blinking red light and the device doesn't come on at all!!
Any advice please?

Have you made sure that the plug is connected tightly to the PPC? If the charge isn't being held, then the battery might be the culprit.

li-ion batts have a limited number of times it can be recharged before it's lifespan is over
maybe your batt's time is up ?

Follow-up
OK. I bought a new battery and everything works fine now. So if you're having a similar situation, a new battery may solve your problem too.

same problem
I had the same problem as you. When the battery was on 30% to 90% it could be easily charged via USB from PC or via usb adapter. Once the battery fall under appr. 20% I was unable to charge it. I wanted to throw to the garbage. I have done many upgrades many resets. While the qtek was without any software (nothing was installed on it) tha battery successfully charged. So used the qtek as ussual and tried to charge it before 20%. BUt now it fall again under 20% and it's happening the same, I can't charge it. The other strange think is, that I have tried 5 computers with USB.1 and USB.2 but is didn't help. Only one computer can charget from 0% to 100% and this one is in my work.. very strange and don't know what couse this... Normaly the battery holds power for two and half days, so don't wan't to buy new one now. If anyone has any explanation why it can be charge only with "one computer" or what can that couse, I really appreciate it.
Thank you

i-mate JAMin battery problem

I've left my JAMin for a month and now I can not turn it on.Any ideas? Why the battery is not charging? I think I'm going insane Do I have to buy a new battery? PLEASE HELP ME

If you are trying to charge using usb from computer or other source it probably won't revive a really discharged phone.
Instead you need to use the wall charger, leave it plugged in overnight then check the phone out.

Batt Charging is controlled by the OS/ROM, so if the batt is completely dead the phone in all probability not charge it.
You may not need to buy a new Batt if you can find a seperate batt. charging unit....
Else, a new batterry.

10x guys.I hope I will charge it today Hope dies last

happen to me before, if you can't charge it up, you either have buy a standalone battery charger from ebay or just postive & negative to boose a charge into the battery (for pros only)

No recharge when battery is nearly empty

When the battery of my Universal is more then 50% full it will recharge.
If it falls below 50% it doesn't recharge anymore when I plug in the adapter or PC-USB.
Luckily my father has an Universal too. So I can occasionally recharge my battery in his Universal when I forget to recharge mine. But ofcourse that's not the sollution.
Anybody knows this problem and how to fix it?
Sound like a software problem....
Thanx in advance.

Never heard of that problem, did you try to charge your father's battery in your Universal?

I'll try that this weekend. Than I'll be more certain if it is the battery or the Universel it self.
But in the meanwhile I hope that someone recognizes this and had an answer.

New Battery Problem

Hello!
i have universal the orignal battery dies very quickly shows wrong information !
i bough a new one i didnt use it for few months the battery was dead!
now when i charge it its keeps blinking quickly the red light !
dosent charge :S
any reason
Thx

I've got exactly the same problem, even when I plug it into the AC adapter. When I plug it in the AC it starts-up, but gives me the information that there's unkown battery left? How could this happen, I've used the thing with a new battery for about 4 days and then I let it rest for about 4 weeks but now it's dead!
