Hello everyone,

 

I seem to have a problem with the battery and its software. The symptoms...

  • The device never provides a low battery warning
  • Shuts down suddenly without warning if not plugged in...at reboot, battery display shows ~50%
  • Currently plugged in and battery shows 91% available (plugged in, not charging)... will not charge to 100% as it did originally when new (18 months old)
  • Will only charge to 100% when device is powered down
