Getting ready to head to Verizon to swap my battery out. Despite charging it overnight (two different nights) and trying multiple charges, hard resets, battery pulls and everything else I can think of my battery will not charge beyond 40%.
Will keep everyone updated on if a new battery fixes the problem.

- Bionic (sad but sweet)
09-10-2011 10:58 AMI noted Speeds mention of this (and his problems) in one of the other threads here. I have not tested, but I did look over the wart/power unit between my D1 and the Bionic and they appear identical, and have identical specifications (mmiamps and volts). So on face this makes no sense, but it hard to argue with results. I am certainly going to test more. I do know there are no issues with old and new micro usb cables and the PC, so far.
