After charging my new 768, the battery box remains white. The box remains white after using phone. How can I tell when to recharge?

On my phone, I see a black area grown as the battery is used. After recharging the phone will chime letting me know it has a full charge. I make sure the battery is seated properly. I can go in stand-by mode for several days and the battery indicates a full charge.

As long as you have a solid white battery, you have a charged battery...As you use the phone you will notice the solid white area will start to shrink as you're using up the battery the white area will turn black...until there's nothing but the outline of the battery. The 768 has a really good battery so unless you're constantly using your phone the battery will stay charged a pretty long time....

The battery box turns to black when discharging. The battery has quite a long life unless you are constantly on the phone.

I've read that these sometimes have a break-in period and that the charging indication corrects itself after a few days of use. I'd try charging it up and using it and recharging it a few times to see if that helps. Only "problem" is that the charge lasts a long long time! Good luck.

The indicator light will flash, literally for days...it's a slow charging process. Should be done in 3 days or less with a solid light indicator. You can also check the status of the battery charge by logging into your Arris router (http://10.0.0.1)

Trying to recharge the battery pak, it's plugged in and blinking blue. Had a little juice left, but cut off twice with my Galaxy S4 plugged to it to charge. Is this normal?

I had the same problem and I changed the 2 AA batteries in the handset and problem solved. I had assumed because the LED display said it was fully charged it was, but the batteries didn't hold the charge. I was just about to buy a new phone when I figured that out!

Is it possible the battery is not charged? The instructions suggest it is necessary to discharge fully then recharge. It may be it came discharged, and must be on charge to be recognized, I bought an inexpensive battery and it lasted about three days, then began indicating it should be replaced. The only other possibility would be an incorrect battery? Best regards, Sammy

From what I understand from reading the owners manual, that indication is the chargers way of telling you that the battery is very discharged and is only at about 25% of its capacity. The LEDs are supposed to blink, not light up solid, as the charger is charging. If there is nothing wrong with the battery, the charge level should start going up after a while and in a few hours, the LEDs should read at 100% (solid, not blinking, red, red, yellow, green LEDs). I hope this helps you Mary! Michael R

Hi Diana. I charged mine for the first time with my phone's wall charger which has the same micro-USB port. If the display glows orange it's charging. Same thing goes for the PC USB port.

i purchased it for my father but I would guess its a weak battery indicator and currently charging if it doesn't go green after a while the battery might not be chargeable anymore or a faulty charging unit , or drill . Most chargers have the same red light indicator meaning.

I bought an extra batt from Amazon as well and both batteries, the one that came with the phone (tmob s3) and the recently purchased one work ok. I think the newer battery is flaky. It only shows about 80% after charging overnight. Doesn't say that there's circuitry in the charger to prevent overcharging, but it does take a looong time to charge. IMO the slow charging cycle extends the life of the battery. There's a battery charge indicator light that shows RED when charging and BLUE when the battery is fully charged. Hope that helps.

After the battery is fully charged the light will turn blue. It is when you charge the battery in the charger dock. But if you charge the battery via the USB port, the light will be always blue and you can see if the battery if fully charged in your phone indicator.

After you plugged the attachment did you reboot the phone before trying to charge? are you judging it is not working because the lighting symbol is not showing up? that happens on my first gen MotoX... i use a third party app (Curve fish battery widget) to indicate that charging is happening.

There is an on/off button on the back. When you press it on, there is line of 4 little white lights. Just like the bars on your phone, you can tell how much of a charge is left. If you get no lights, then the battery is dead and needs to be recharged. Charging this takes some time, but it has saved me quite a few times. You know it is fully charged when all the lights are lit again.

this is a known issue. you need to place the battery in the charger and then unplug and plug the charger into the wall outlet. the light should go solid blue (charging). if you don't do this the blue light will probably stay flashing and will not charge. i learned this by calling Hoover directly.

When you plug it in, the light on the end is blue and when it is fully charged, it turns red. I don't know exact time. When I run out, I plug it in and leave it. I think maybe a couple of hours (?) By the time I plug it in, my phone is fully charged, so I don't need the backup for a while.

It should turn Blue when it's charged. If not I'd RMA it. But yes, 3-4 hours is my approx time I wait until it's charged (from a completely dead battery).

I called the Samsung company, and he told me to keep it plugged in the wall, and eventually it was a steady light and it started to charge. I let it charge for a while and it was totally charged. So try this before you go out and buy a new battery.
