• MS A30 - battery charging when I plug in the power cable

  Hello

  I'm having some problems with (I think) on my A30 power management utility. When I am running on battery power and I plug in the power cable, the battery continues to discharge even if the laptop 'knows' that it runs on the power grid (ie the utility says "current generator: alternating current.") "Online, discharges: 82%. Strangely, if I put the laptop in mode 'sleep', then resume, she goes back to normal (i.e. working on current alternative, the battery charges).

  It is true, I think that this began after I installed "PC Pitstop optimize Scan" www.pcpitstop.com (please, not conferences - I used a couple of their public services before and they were very good, so I thought it would be too much), so I guess it's some sort of configuration problem, but I have no idea where to go from here. I went through all the options on the power management utility, but they all look sensitive. Any ideas (other than do not install software stupid, doubtful)?

  Hi Kenny,

  I experienced this behavior on my A30 where the system says it works on current alternative, but still drains the battery and stops eventually.

  In my case the problem has proved to be a loose DC Jack that sometimes cuts off contact with the socket on the back of the laptop. This momentary loss of power DC seems to provoke the power management utility switch to battery power, even though the DC power is restored. The only way out of this situation is to Hibernate / restarting the laptop.

  I think that it is a problem with the power supply subsystem in the laptop that does not react properly when it encounters a momentary loss of DC. Then the Toshiba power management utility is no longer responds correctly and switches to the battery power.

  My only solution to this was to anchor the DC cable to the back of my A30 so that there is now no chance of the plug DC moving in its socket. This has proved to be very effective for my A30 and I've had no recurrence of the problem.

• Problem of Satellite A200 - 28 p/battery charger

  Hello

  I had a power problem with my battery charger for a while sometimes it would charge when plugged in and others would not, so if I removed the charger to move the laptop it was a bet of 50 / 50 as to whether it would be instantly turn off or not.

  This was not too much a problem as the laptop is not moved too often, but I recently returned home to find my charger did not work at all and the cell phone was off.

  I managed to get hold of a replacement charger just to test it and I found that when it is plugged, flashing blue light which is usually strong watch the charger is plugged, and the times he has stayed solid and allowed me to boot up the laptop lasted almost a minute at best before shutting down completely not even enough time to get transfer important documents I have there.

  Is buying a new battery is going to fix this, or is the problem more likely to be something inside the laptop to be replaced?

  Hello

  I doubt that buy a new battery would solve your problem.
  Why?
  Because the laptop should also work correctly using only the AC adapter.
  So even if the battery is defective or dead, it should be possible to use the laptop connected to the network.

  The laptop has a number of other power resources, including a smart power battery clock real time and these resources are closely linked and one could affect apparent power problems.

  If the DC IN is blue, this means that the AC adapter is connected properly and the power supply correctly. If this is not the case, the adapter may be faulty or there is a problem with the electronic power supply on the motherboard.

  So in this case, the power adapter must be tested if you are sure that the adapter is working properly, then there must be a problem with the motherboard to 100%.

• Battery, charger, or something else?

  Pavilion DV7-1285dx, Windows Vista, original battery, original magazine, around the age of 16 months. I ran "Battery Check" and he says that the battery is OK. I also did the full charge to complete the calibration of discharge.

  Normally the computer is plugged in, but when I fell on battery it would start at 100% load and the number would decrease fairly consistently for about 2 hours until what I'd get messages the battery was low.

  Recently, I was see the following:

  The computer will display the battery is charged to 100%. To immediately unplug the power cord, it will show you that the battery is about 55% load. The number is falling consistently for about 45 min, until I get messages from low battery. When I plug it back in, the screen icon indicates that the charge and the charge LED on the front of the computer light up. The '% loaded' on the battery icon increased about 1% per minute until he returned in the mid-1950s, then he jumps '100% charged' and the charging light turns off. When I unplug the next time the invoiced % will fall again immediately in the middle of the 1950s.

  I believe the battery goes bad, but when I went to batteries Plus, the guy (kid, in fact) said that he had not seen fail like that. They will normally show 100% and just to perform at a rapid pace. My discharge rate does not seem to have changed much, but for some reason, that seems to be the battery, charger, software or something in the computer think that 55% equals 100% loaded and closes more load.

  Someone at - it ideas?

  Well, I got lucky. I saw the notice of recall of extended battery and thought that I would check before you buy a new battery. I was not on the list, but simply remove and replace the battery to get the information to check the recall seems to have done the trick. I'm now load normally with no jump suddenly from 55% to 100% and the discharge normally on battery with no drop immediate 100% to 55%. I was running on battery power for the last 45 minutes with the remaining 75%. I guess that something was not just sitting quite right. Sometimes the simplest things work.

  I guess I should be grateful for battery HP problems since they I saved over $ 100.

• Firefox is using excessive via "Background App Refresh" battery charge - Although setting being decommissioned.

  I have background App refresh disabled - the scale of the system. However, the Firefox application has managed to get a huge 8.6 hours of substantive activity App Refresh... and eat an important piece of my battery charge in the process. He has used more battery than the Safari app, even if I used just the Firefox App Firefox does NOT respect (and iOS is obviously not properly apply) the updating of the background App setting.

  The Firefox application won a quick deletion of my iPhone. I can give him a second chance in the future, when Apple and Mozilla had the chance to solve this fundamental problem App update.

  Attached are two screenshots. The first is my screen background App update, which shows that I have background App refresh disabled in its entirety and the second, my main screen of the battery, which shows the excessive amount of the battery used by "Background App refresh." Firefox is a flagrant violation in the Protocol of the battery by the Firefox app... and unfortunately, iOS has allowed it to happen.

  I am very pleased to announce that the issue of excessive background use I had experienced with a previous version of Firefox for iOS is part of Firefox version 1.2! I now use the normal battery with little or no background activity. I am very pleased and I intend to continue to use Firefox on iOS regularly.

• Changing the setting of 80% to 100% on the Satellite Z30-A-104 battery charging

  Hello

  I used my Z30 Satellite primarily as a desktop till now (the charger is still plugged).
  One day I got a popup option to increase the life of the battery (charge only up to 80%) and I accepted the option.

  But now, I'll be traveling and can't reset this option.

  I want to charge the battery to 100% and be able to take advantage of longer battery life.
  How is that possible? Help!

  See you soon

  Hello

  I think that you have changed this setting in battery Toshiba Manager c++.
  You must disable Mode "Eco-responsible".

  Perhaps this Toshiba info would be useful:

• Help with Apple battery charger?

  Because of my Apple Magic mouse, which need spare batteries, at least once every 25 days and my Belkin YourType keyboard requiring spare batteries every day, I bought the Apple Best Buy battery charger as it offers is more the Apple store online. How will I know when the device is finished loading? Best Buy reviewers talk about a sense of light orange blinking battery is defective. I can't say when the charger is finished loading. No it fires? He flashes? It emits beep? Best shopping site only mentions that it reduces the amount of energy it draws when it finishes loading. I want to know when it is finished loading. Everyone go through Duracell batteries in their Magic Mouse in less than 25 days?

  Hello Rebekah

  I used a charger Apple in recent years.   Plugged in to the mains and batteries, the charger will immediately return orrange and will stay like that until the batteries are completely charged.   At this time there the little light turns green and the battery themselvesz will feel warm to the touch.   When they are charged fees to be held for a few weeks, is slowly diminishing.   As the batteries cool, the light turns off, but the batteries themselves will remain loaded.   Use a battery as a final control power indicator.

  If you don't get an orange at first, chances are your batteries are not long enough to complete the + and - sign.   Real Duracell rarely have this problem.   Evade about to see if it makes a difference, but don't be tempted to use aluminum foil packing to compensate for the length; test another battery.

• Battery charge R200 options?

  I can't find a setting on my R200 where I can turn the battery charging when wallconnector is in. Batterylife should be longer if she wouldn charge every day. It s it souch options on my R200?

  Hello

  There's NO other way. If the battery is placed in the laptop and you use the AC adapter as well as the battery will be charged.
  You must always remove the battery if you work with the main power supply, because the procedure of permanent load is not good for the duration of battery life

• Questions about the BIOS update and battery charge on Satellite M30 104

  Hey,.
  I try to update my BIOS, but it does not work because my battery won't charge any more, if a window always tells me that my battery is not enough. Yet, the reason why I'm updating my BIOS is that I read in a forum that might solve my problem of battery charging.
  I'm fairly certain that the battery is not the problem itself: I bought a new battery, it worked for 10 minutes once or twice, then again the load stop completely.
  If anyone knows what the problem is or how to update my BIOS, please...

  Hello Celia

  I am not a technician, but as far as I know, BIOS has nothing to do with charging the battery. In my opinion, there are some problems with e-procurement (electronic load). Sorry, but I imagine that you must contact the partner in your country.

  They have diagnostic tools and it can be verified. Please call and simply explain the situation.

  Good luck!

• Second battery charge no more than 29% on Portege R200

  Hello

  I borrowed today from a friend (who has a Portege R100) its extra battery pack, model PA3155U-1BRL. Unfortunately, when I put it on my R200, it started to load, but stopped at 29% and does not load above this percentage. I also have another identical extra battery pack which I bought with my laptop and it loads and works very well, so it's not a computer problem for sure.

  I also tried to remove the battery main the Portege and do work only with the pack extra battery (faulty), but without success. Yet once again, the same problem occurred. 2nd battery charge indicator LED turns on for a minute or two and then turns off and the battery stops in charge, as I can also see the power management in windows, where the battery is shown as "On Line" when the laptop is plugged into the charger a/c and "Évacuation" when the laptop runs on the battery alone. In all cases, the battery is over 29%.

  Given that Li - ion batteries don't suffer no "memory effect", you have an idea of what is happening and how can I deal with it?

  Thank you much in advance.

  Hello

  Looks like a malfunction of the battery to the battery performance and life is limited
  After abut 500 times charge and discharge procedures the battery will discharge slowly performance.

  I think that you should simply replace the battery with a new and check if it helps to solve your problem!

• The battery charge falls even when it is plugged into the satellite series

  I have a laptop satellite and although it recognizes the power adapter when it is connected and that the icon in the taskbar shows "load", the percentage of the battery charge seems down.

  It is only while the laptop is turned on, because it does not charge the battery when it is turned off.
  I didn't know that he used the power of the battery so that hip, so I'm puzzled by this not only why the battery doesn't seem to be in charge, but also why the battery seems to fall once the laptop doesn't have to use it anyway.

  Any help is appreciated!

  Hello

  I saw this problem on my own laptop in the past. even if the laptop is charging, the battery seems to fall in charge.

  This indicates that the battery life is coming to an end, there are a limited number of cycles of load for a battery before it dies.
  Also when you have the computer is off fresh is always lost at a considerable pace, because the battery is good, "die."

  You can't do anything on this issue except to buy a new replacement battery for your laptop computer to a repair center authorized Toshiba. This should answer your question.

• Satellite 1130 battery charge problem

  Hi, just joined this site. I have a Satellite 1130 and seem to have a battery charging problem. Every so often, without regular pattern or a set of events to help the machine starts beeping and the Red charge blinks, as if the battery charge runs out, it is, but it happens when the charger is plugged - green power light shows that it is connected, but it is not the battery. The only solution I found is to turn the power off, disconnect the battery and back again. Then everything works until the next time.

  Any ideas?

  [Edited by: admin April 23 05 18:07]

  Hello

  It is possible that there is a problem of electronic power supply. If the power supply microcontroller detects an error lamp DC IN sends a code flashing (8-bit error code). Can you please check it if the led blinks 8 times sending the code?

  You can try to contact the Service partner, explain the problem and I'm sure they can give you a clear explanation.
