Title: E398 Display light always on :)
Post by: zigg on February 18, 2008, 07:39:43 am
So , i broke the connector pins (not only them, some part of the mainboard too) on the phone wich are used for charging the battery , and the only way to fix this was to use pins from some other phone and connect them directly to the battery inside. This setup woks for me , the battery is charging , but there's a small problem. The display light stays always on and the phone says "unable to charge". The only solution that i was able to find is to turn on the Rhythm Lights, but that only stays for 10 minutes max . So my question is , is there a way to enable Rhythm Lights permanently , or some other way to solve my problem.
Sorry for my bad english , im doing my best here :)

Are U really broke the main board?its sounds terrible... What do U do with those?maybe Ull get another trouble if U connect Ur batt directly to charger.Its not safe for Ur batt and charger!its safer to use a desktop carger.there is a 3 pin in the charger.which one do U connect to Ur batt?Umm,I cant help U with rhytem light,but U can turn off Ur phone when U charging it.but be carefull,Ur batt can overload if U charge it directly.

Try to lock your keypad. The backlight usually turn off automatically if you lock your keypad.

Have you tried to use your charger on other ROKR?
If you have the same problem on other phone, it means that the problem comes from your charger.  :)

Just buy a new charger  :P
You don`t have to buy an original charger. Just check the output voltage and amperage that suit your phone.
Or you can buy a dekstop charger. I always use dekstop charger to charge my batteries, and I never have any problem with it.
