Default Re: Battery With Big Red Cross On It

I had the same problem with my Bold 9000 using knock off batteries. These were inexpensive batteries made in China which looked almost, but not quite like genuine RIM batteries. It is very tempting since the price of genuine RIM batteries is so expensive. These batteries are usually sold on line, some by otherwise repuitable vendors. I would almost guarantee that if you obtained a genuine RIM battery, the problem would go away. I said "almost" so I would suggest, as indicated above, that you "borrow" a battery from someone with a torch to see if that cures the problem before shelling out for a new genuine RIM battery.
