Title: 6000 Charging Weirdness?
Post by: rrnwexec on September 01, 2005, 05:08:40 pm

I have a 6000 that the "charging"  LED on the unit never goes off as long as the Z is powered off. I can leave it plugged in for days, and that LED will never go off. However, if I charge with the unit remaining powered on, the LED turns off when the unit is charged ( as I would expect.) The unit appears to charge properly as I can use it on battery power for the amount of time I'd expect.

Any thoughts on what's happening? I've tried this with 2 separate batteries with the same result.

(I'm using OZ/Opie 3.5.3 in case that matters.)

Cheers,
Randall.

Hello

Try with a normal kernel or sharp rom and see if it helps

Do other 6000 users see this too?

Is it a kernel bug?

Yes, it is a kernel bug. Sharp kernel correctly controls power/charge LED while off.
