General Discussion / Zaurus 5500 Reset after battery runs down

« on: July 10, 2004, 06:28:32 am »

It does seem the backup battery is at fault after reading a bit more about it.

It seems to do a hard reset when the battery dies. So with the sharp roms the system is ok as it's all in the first 16MB? I lose all my setting for example if I have edited /etc/pcmcia/wirless* etc. Anything installed.

Is there anyway to replace the backup battry?

Hi,

I brought my Zaurus from ebay and it appear to work fine. However every time the battery runs down it totaly resets after a few hours. IE with the sharp ROMS you lose anything installed and have to go through the setup again and a similar thing happens with OZ but it basicly gets messed up.

I have left on on charge for a few days and it still does it. I assume this is not normal!

Anyone have an ideas on how to fix this?
