I bought a BL-5J battery, so now I have 2 (and I have marked them so I know which is which
).
I have difficulties charging/using this battery.
What happens:
connect to charger, it
sometimes
starts charging for 1-5 minutes, then goes green
it then
sometimes
boots succesfully, the battery meter shows full charge
it then dies unceremoniously after a few minutes - always before I managed to
do the calibration dance
.
Note "sometimes" - other times, it goes into some sort of boot loop or the yellow light doesn't come on at all.
I tried with 2 different chargers.
I tried a
full power cycle
, the behaviour wasn't significantly different after that.
If I put in my first battery the device boots normally.
The status bar battery meter shows 0%, but bnf shows 99% (I guess this could be fixed with another
calibration
- anyhow, that's not the topic of this thread).
I know what the most likely answer is here, but just wanted to make sure if there's something I haven't tried yet?
