Long sad sad story short:
Bricked my Flyer to the point where it didn't boot up, had wrong radio roms and in the end, the battery died.. now it just blinks orange..
HTC Repairs said that the motherboard needs to be replaced, which I find very hard to believe, since it worked just "FINE" before the battery died
In my search for a Battery for the device I only came by chinese bulk sale pages, 100pcs minimum order.
Would be very grateful if anyone can point me to a page or person who can spare a full Flyer/Evo battery, or better yet, who knows how to manually charge the battery, if possible, using a power generator..
(And yes, I did a search on the forums but no clear lines of help in my question)

Thanks, ordered a new battery for 29$, will see if it works
is it orginal battery?
when you get the battery can you inform us about the new battery's performance?
there is a a post on how to manually recharge battery; search a bit XDA; Globathron posted solution for a guy with same problem.

Hello
in the last few weeks i got some emails of ppl who had problems charging
their XDA's. So i decided to redo my Mod and make a few new pics.
First of all it seems like XDA Charger can't filter fluctuations in the powerline hence the fuse that is supposed to make sure your XDA wont be fried blows and you cant charge it anymore.
The fuse itself seems to be a 1.5 AMP fuse, unfortunatly i wasnt able to get one of these babies in...i could have used the 3.0 AMPs but i thought it
might be smarter to stick with the specs.
So where to get it from? Fortunatly i discovered that the same fuse is
built into the XDA twice. The second one is responsible for the extended battery pack, which i dont use. Perfect for my mod
Please DO NOT do this if you dont know anything about soldering.
I was just lucky Just call and expert...most will do it for free or charge a small fee.
@Peter Poelman : i hope you like this one better
Okay...lets start with the pics...
its upside down...lol
lucky the ones who preview
sorry for that
Before i forget...after this mod you should not use an extended battery pack anymore....i bought a 1800mAh battery from expansys.
which lasts me for 7 hours hard PDA gaming fun...
Aquasesh,
Your post will quite probably save my day as I have pluged the wrong cable in my XDA.
But I'm quite unclear on the exact order of your picture. I've seen it's been posted in reverse but I'm still confuse.
Could anyone put numbers instead of my X so that I can next search a techni guys to have him do it for me.

Ignore the bottom picture, then read right,left, right, left, right, left.
Where's the blown fuse?
I know it's been a while since you must have done this but how do I get the top cover off. I unscrewed the one black screw I could find and managed to get the 4-way cursor button out but I don't see how to get access to the front to do the soldering.
Thanks,
Daniel

after solder the wallaby fuse...don´t work
hi
I have solder the fuse one month ago...and works fine...now after charge in my car the wallaby stay´s off...try to solder the fuses again...but nothing.
Is my wallaby dead?
to all
better replace fuse with same value,not bigger or with wires,and check your charger,maybe voltage is too high.otherwise you'll damage your device.abnormal voltage input may fry your xda.
hi
one month ago i have solder and dont put a fuse...whne i charge in the car the led turn off and never wake up again...so may be my wallaby is dead now?
there is any thing i can do to put my wallaby work?
or i have to buy another PDA?
please help me...what can i do?
i again...nobody help me?
can i do something to solve this problem?
don't know what to say,remove battery,let him without battery some time few hours or more,search for another charged battery and try again,maybe only charging part are damaged.
i don´t have another battery...is built in...i gone try discard from wallaby few hours...
another adivece?
manythanks
Hi
I removed the battery a lot of hours...and nothing
anotther sugestion please?
Does anybody out there know what may be wrong with my wee Wallaby? The battery fuse is gone, so i've jumpered it out but despite the battery voltage being 3.5v the unit wont start at all. It doesn't respond to any reset and I cant get it to enter bootloader mode. Any info would be appreciated, i'm an electronic engineer and noticed there are quite a lot components involved in the battery circuit.
Thanks.
Buy a replacement on ebay for 10 us . LOL Upgrade your wallaby its olddddddddddd
Yeah, i've ordered one already! I was unsure though if this was going to be a waste of cash. A whole £13! I'll let you know how it works out. Thanks for the reply.
I think you have probably fried the logic on the battery. As for upgrading, I think the Wallaby is the best value pda/phone available anywhere.
Hi there,
Got my new battery and low and behold it has brought my Wee Wallby back from the grave! The battery IC's must have been faulty, there's five pins on the circuit board for the motherboard to connect to so I reckon the battery logic is quite sophisticated.
Thanks for the help guys, I tried O2 in Glasgow but they didn't want to help at all unless the XDA was a warranty job.
I've also upgraded my ROM to the one and only XDA Developers special and I have to say it's a real improvement all round.
Goodnight gadget lovers!
My other half has a galaxy s 2 and tonight it ran out of battery, I've stuck it on charge but its not registering that its charging. She hasn't dropped it or got it wet, its just decided it don't want to work, but my main concern is the pictures I want saved, can I retrieve them some how or even save the phone?
Have you checked more than one charger to see if it is not the phone? Battery might also be in need of replacement.I don't think the phone will do anything if the battery is dead.
That would be the first two things I would check.
Seriously... Please use a descriptive title when posting. You'll get more help that way and ppl who don't know the answer won't need to read the post.

Hi , Yeh I have tryed alternative chargers but still no life in it. Looking at trying another battery, jus seems like it could be a hardware fault.
Thanks.
Please... someone help me as I have bought this phone without a warranty and likewise have no insurance.. and I JUST bought the phone maybe a month ago!!!!/B]
My phone won't keep a charge, it charges only to a certain point while on the charger (that is any charger, inc. the one that came with the phone), but will die within about 15-20 mins after taking it off of the charger, and if I use it while on the charger it will drain the battery the same way as if it was off of the charger, and die within 10-15 mins! Likewise, it started doing this funky vibrating stuff just an hour ago and will not boot up while on the charger at all anymore! I did a little research and found different opinions.. the most relevant being a need to replace the charger port and the other to change the battery. This is crazy as my phone as well as the accompanying accessories such as the battery and the charger were bought brand spanking new and SHOULD NOT be going crazy like this!

One p.o'd Miss
I take it the phone is 100% stock; not rooted or no custom ROM? And you say that it is new and you did nothing to cause this? You didn't get it wet?
Try a factory restore. If that doesn't help then I would try a new battery.
Sounds like a failed battery to me.
A trip to your phone carrier store would be easy enough. I think they would at least try another battery for quick diagnosis.

No, I did no cause the issue nor did I get my phone wet. It simply started doing what I described in my initial post.. I noticed it when I plugged my phone in and it has been an ongoing situation for about 4-5 days now.
Thank you for the response and suggestion

Thank you very much for the quick response. I figured that the battery was the issue. I had a Samsung Galaxy 3 prior to purchasing the Note and it had the exact same issue,.. well not the same exact symptoms, but the need for a new battery due to not taking a charge, and I hadn't had that particular phone more than 6 months! Perhaps it is a Samsung manufacturing issue with faulty batteries, similar to car manufacturers who have massive recalls on their vehicles due to faulty engine or other car parts. My physician told me that I needed to switch to an IPhone, lol... better quality I assume. Perhaps he is right.. ???

Oh.. I forgot, yes the phone is 100% stock as you assumed. Terrible that it is doing what it is doing! Guess I need to get that battery then... ho hum.. more moola out of my darn pockets!
Your carrier (AT&T, T-Mobil, etc) store would at least put in a known good battery to see if that is all it is. And if so, then a new the cost of a new battery is next.
And as far as the iPhone......been down that road, and I could never go back to the iPhone. It was good for it's purpose and reliable. But NO more reliable than any Android phone I've owned. (3 of them).
And should the battery die in the iPhone, you will need to take it or send it back to an iPhone repair center. You don't just pull the back of it off, and replace the battery. At least in my 2 - iPhone 3G versions anyway.
And then there is rooting...cant hack an iPhone. You can jail break them, but that is not the same thing, and you still have no control over the OS.
JMO on the apple stuff.. Good, but VERY limited.
Keep your Note, it's better IMO, and has a huge screen.
Hello guys,
my dad backed TS on kickstarter (probably) and then since it took so long for him to get his watch he bought galaxy gear instead so when it finally arrived it was just siting there unopened until few months later (now) when I found out and wanted to give it a spin. It didn't turn on.
It is 1GB ram model probably for Europe since 3g frequency is stated to be 2100MHz on the box
there is no response to either charging or pushing the power button, it is registered but not recognized when plug into a PC(no change on the watch itself)
I have tried nothing and I'm out of ideas I only tried to take the battery out for a bit and then putting it back in with no result
Any suggestions on how to make it work? Battery is dead? I read on the forum that the product is not very good but I would still love to give it a try.
replacement battery
ok so since nobody has a better idea I'm thinking that it is just that the battery is completely depleated. Is there a way to charge it outside of the watch? Or where can I buy new one?
Thanks, Andress

I am sorry. It appears that almost nobody is reading this forum anymore. I don't know how to help you, and nobody visits here to answer your or my question
---------- Post added at 09:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 PM ----------
oh I realised that TS was shipped with a spare battery. You should have a second spare battery. If so, then you could try replacing a battery. Normally batteries are stored with 50% charge, because that's best for battery life. So it should have some charge, at least enough to start charging.
it didnt have the spare battery when it came
also in the mean time I checked with voltmeter and the battery is dead so do you know where to buy new one?
Try universal charger
It's quite a common problem with phone batteries not in use for a long time. I used universal charger "Ansmann Vario pro" to get them alive - few times with success. Not necessary this model - look for anyone with adjustable pins.
