 | HELP. . .tg50 unresponsive. . .!
 So after my latest tg50 charged all night (like usual,) I picked it up and put it on a cradle to launch the MS Transfer to upload a few new pictures. When I tapped the program, it reset. . .hmm, it's happened before, but this time I could not revive it.
Power button did nothing, as all other hard keys. Only pushing the reset pin in the back did I get the backlit 'Palm' screen, then no backlight to finish the sequence. When the Prefs screen appeared, there was only a brief delay before it gave a message that because of low power that such and such would not be functional. If I hit the Back key quickly it will let me back out of the error message and to the Clie Launcher screen right before it goes dead again--whether plugged in or not.
So I'm clueless as to what happened. The only thought is that maybe because of the dry wintery air and static electricity on the aluminum body maybe something happened? Anybody get through this?
I even did a hard reset and that only comes up briefly--screen won't let me tap the digitizer to get past that part.
HELP. . .!

| When my TG50 died, it did something like that.
I took out my TG50 after school, and it had a reset message on the screen. I did a reset, and it told me the battery was low, so I turned it off. I was home in 7-10 min and charged it. Well, the screen showed nothing. It was dead...

| After playing around with the reset loop I was stuck in, it occurred to me that I should unplug the battery and see what happens.
Well, a hard reset upon plugging the battery back in has done the trick. Tg50 is back up and running again!
Sorry to be panicky!

| Any advice on how to get the battery out and replace it? Is there a site with detailed instructions. My TG-50 is not staying charged for more than a couple of hours at a time and is even having a tough time charging in the cradle. I think the battery needs replacing. | |
