The rechargeable batteries last for about 1 min this is after being charged all night. what should i do? where is the reset button?

you need to do a hard reset or get a new battery

to reset hold down the power button for about 15 seconds and it should make a noise indicating they have been reset

do a hard reset and then make sure the software is up todate. 1. Power the Tablet off.
2. Press and hold the Volume Down button of the device, then press and hold the Power button.
3. Continue to hold both buttons until a bootloader screen appears.
4. Wait for the prompt that says to "Press <VOL_UP>" then press the Volume Up button to start the process.
5. Navigate to Erase content.

Since it's brand new, return it. You didn't say what type of tablet it is, but they should last for many hours on a charge.

first have bought an original battery replacement? if no then buy original, 2) do not recharge the battery before it drains complately,3) do not over charge the battery like leaving it plugged to electricity all night ,the life of battery goes down, recharging should be done for a max1.30hrs at a time

I have had my mororola w230 for a few weeks, when i plugged it in to recharge the battery last night, it will not charge. I can not locate my user guide. can you assist ?

Mine is doing the same thing, and I've tried the same solutions as well as trying different computers and cables to recharge.

The one other possibility for mine is that I damaged it using a generic charger in the car that was supposed to work for "most" MP3 players. It did seem to - I mean, the player didn't blow up, catch on fire, or stop working! - but a day later, it collapsed. Maybe a coincidence, maybe damage from the car charger.

I'm guessing that it's time for both of us to send the units in for battery replacement.

Good luck with yours.

What do u mean it's not working...??
Check for any loose connections...
It's a laptop charger, and u said it was workin' fine last night, then there's bound to be a loose connection......

If nothing else [like thunderstorms, voltage fluctuations, or any other harmful incidents] hasn't occured, it's connection prob....

Try using different plug-points.... Try checking the adapter if it's correctly connected or not...... If none of this works, call a comp spec.....!!

All rechargeable batteries have a limited life, and as they age their charge capacity reduces over time and you get shorter and shorter time between charges.
Recharage batteries have a finite number of charge and discharge cycles and batteries over 2 years old are considered nearly worn out. Worn out batteries won't charge up at all.

Laptop batteries last 1 to 3 years (check your warranty = most laptop batteries are only 1 year ..) .. anyone who gets 3 years out of one is doing well ...

It sounds like you either have a bad battery, battery charger or maybe the battery has dirty connections. Try another set of batteries and if it still happens let me know. BMW
