Badly solded battery (or so i presume)
I removed a memory hack from my supposedly 4gig chipod (turned out to be two) but now i still face another problem.
The battery has the tendency to act up, as in connecting sometimes when i attach it to the pc using the usb cable, but not when i just flick the switch on the player to on. I read something off another user on the board having a similar (yet not so similar otherwise i wouldnt be posting this thread) problem, and it worked for him to stick a little piece of cardboard over the battery pushing it closer to the connectors, but somehow i get the feeling that this won't work for me as i assume that his casing is different from mine. Mine is full-bodied metal. I will try the cardboard trick tomorrow, and see if this works; If not, i will be posting some pictures of the internal lay-out. this is a pic of the outside [img=left:22640f0c1d]http://i21.ebayimg.com/02/i/000/9f/f9/f334_1.JPG[/img:22640f0c1d]
Has anyone else had the same problem or does anybody know a solution to this issue?
Kind regards,
RD
