T210 not charging the battery
I have a Galaxy tab 7.0 (T210) and it looks almost new, not even a scratch on the digitizer! She told me that she almost never used it.
Anyway, the tablet seems to not charge the battery at all.
The battery reads 2.86 volts and was last chaged 100% around 4 days ago.
I find it very strange that the battery can go at so low voltage, maybe something draining it intensively. or the internal resistance of the battery. The battery voltage does not change at all when I plug in the usb.
I tested the usb port, and I can read my 5volt on the board, so the usb are not the problem here. Then I unplugged the battery and saw random voltages between 1.5 to 3 volts on the battery connector on the pcb while the usb are plugged, wich means some current are travelling towards it. But something are blocking the charging process.
So my guess might be a defective charging ic. But im not sure at all about it.
Can you help me, thanks
Questa è una buona domanda?
Did you ever figure out what the issue was?
I recently got a hand me down t210r, and it boots while plugged in but won't charge up.
