Nano: bat discharges while off

<< < (2/3) > >>

bascule:
Don't like to be pedantic here, but you are shutting it down correctly? (very long press of PLAY...)

It may also be worth doing an OF firmware upgrade. I had a similar problem with a nano I got on ebay that would not switch off (in the OF). I did a firmware upgrade and then installed Rockbox and it's been good as gold since.

fleebuster:
OF firmware; Sorry I'm not sure what you mean bascule. do you mean the Apple firmware?
Yes, I was shutting down using  the long press of Play. (unfortunately, and embarassingly [yet undoubtedly conveniently] I've not had this issue since my last post.)

Anyway, I'll keep an eye on it and post more data when I have them.  Where should I put further information about this issue? continue to add to this thread in Hardware, or is there a board more attuned to this issue?

Chronon:
There have also been a number of reports of this behavior on Apple's forums.  

probedb:
I've just noticed mine has done this too. I can't recharge either because it connects to the computer without a USB connection then restarts itself connected by USB then shuts down and does the whole thing again.

Basically I'm not sure how I can charge my nano now as it won't stay connected in order to charge?

This means I can't reflash the firmware, find any details about it or even put the apple firmware on it because it will not stay connected and charge :(

Chronon:
Try turning the "Hold" switch on so that it boots into the Apple firmware instead of loading Rockbox.
