Hallo,
i'm from Germany and sorry about my English, hopefully you will understand is.
I think my akku is also damaged, because of the heat in the car.
can you tell me how I can open the vibe 500. I find on way to do this, of course there us a little slot downside bot no effect ???

bay be you have some pictures, an new HDD will be also fine ;-)

I hope you can help me.

ups i find the manual, but i have no screws in the side, they are covered ?
OK i have find it out, i have found the screws, and this evening i will open the player :-)

Well, the new battery solved my problem! It really seems the old one was that worn off... Well, who cares, the new iPod battery is just fine. Only one minor thing: You you move the vibe to fast, you can hear (and feel) the battery moving inside the case, as it's not glued to the board as the original was.

The battery now holds around 1 1/2 days without recharging. That's fine by me :)

As sons as I get a hold of my girlfriends cam, I finally gonna take some pictures of the new battery. As I ran out of many cause I had to fix some of my computer's parts, I delayed the HDD replacement till Christmas ;)

So long,
Kernle

You could put some folded pieces of paper inside to act as shims.  Another possibility: Hot glue has nice adhesion yet can be easily removed when necessary.

I suppose it's something like this. But it's only my speculation. Right now only Kernle knows the truth.
