Hope someone can help me fix my C3200.
When I switch my Zaurus on it only stays on for 2 seconds, screen goes off then back on for a second then stays off. I have swapped the battery over with my C760 & the problem stays with the C3200. Works correctly when on mains power. Any suggestions? Mike |

Brightness set to minimum when on battery power!!!! Just spent 4 hours on a plane twiddling my thumbs & never thought to try adjusting the settings via the keyboard shortcut Grrrr Mike |

Thanks everyone.
A friend must have set the brightness to minimum while looking at some pics from his camera, assumed he had switched it off. On charge overnight & alarm went off following morning to get plane, display was OK as it was still on mains power. Even so I should have realised having used the Zaurus ever since the first C760 came out. Put it down to old age, retire in 3 months time, not long after the Zaurus range went into retirement. Mike |
