Treo 600 Bounces Red to Green, Beeping While Charging
My treo 600 annoys the daylights out of me when it's charging. It switches from red to green, back and forth, beeping on each change if the sound is left on, until it's fully charged.
I assume this is a bug in the battery detector or perhaps the firmware. If anyone has experienced this or has a technical expertise, please reply. I'd like to believe there's a fix.
I'm considering just killing the sound wh ile it's charging. I can't use it as a phone while it does this. And, using the car or wall charger doesn't change the behavior. I bought it off eBay (no chargers supplied), and guess this is why it ended up there.
Sounds like a hardware problem to me. Have you checked the connection between the sync/charge cable and treo? And is it still under warranty? If so, you may be able to get a warranty exchange.
I had this problem a while back with a car charger. It was car charger and not the Treo.
