1st gen nano clone - Battery charged in 5 min? Impossible
 

Hi everyone,

I have a typical 1st generation Nano clone (512 mb) branded "Boolee" that I bought at the Shanghai technology mega-mall. The battery icon was completely empty just now, and 5 minutes after charging it through USB, the charging icon is full. While unplugging the USB from the Boolee, this message flashes on the screen: "Finish charging." How is this possible? The switch was turned on while charging.

The last time I charged it (and it worked) it took at least half an hour to finish charging (the charging animation would stop and would just show a unmoving full battery) There must be something wrong with it?

Maybe my on switch broke internally and is really stuck at the off position inside? I just want to know how I can get it to charge properly again...I never had this problem before.

Thanks for reading, I'm sure someone else has had this problem, right?

my on switch broke internally at off. but does ur player turn on?

speedypear , it's quite impossible to charge the battery via computer USB in 5minutes. How much playtime do you get from 5minutes worth of charging?

Likely it would be a battery problem. These batteries are usually of low-grade kind, and don't really last that long. So you might want to consider changing the battery itself.
