If you have another battery definitely give it a try, most likely it won't work either. The problem is probably the fuse located on the DC/DC board that has 'blown' causing there to be no power. Replace the board and the camera should work fine. Canon will probably charge $175 or so for the repair.

Hope this helps.

My device won't charge

This situation sometimes occurs when the batteries get overcharged. Use the phone for a day and then attempt to charge. If it still won't charge, remove the battery for about a minute. Then re-install the battery and attempt to charge. If that doesn't clear the problem, you may need to get a new battery.

I reinstalled XP on IBM T41, now battery won't charge. Could this be Driver Problem

Sounds like you need a new battery.
It's not just a battery in a case, it also has a small circuit board inside to control the charging etc, if that's faulty it won't charge, or if it has dead cells in it won't charge.

Not starting up

hello there!
so you're phone won't charge up...you should buy a new battery...your old battery is not functioning well...
tip:
don't use the phone while charging. let it be fully charge before using it again. and don't let it to overcharge too. this will reduce the life span of the battery.
Thank you for choosing fixya and kindly rate this post.

We ran the battery down when we were filming when we put in a new charged battery it won't turn on anymore

Possible that the new battery voltage/current is low. If this is the recharge-able type , as you have not mentioned then have it charged for a long time. Check the voltage on the battery and then try. If the camera does not work then it is possible that some errors have crept into the control board. leve the camera without battery for few hours and then try. if not you must take opinion from the service center.

I have a Novatel MiFi 2352, and the battery does not charge at all recently. Is it possible to overcharge and kill the battery? (I have just realised that while plugged in the battery can be removed,...

You can do two things to determine if the battery is dead:

  1. Use a USB charger to try to charge your battery or
  2. Replace the battery with a new one. Unfortunately, I can't find cheap third batteries for your product.
Both items can be found on ebay or amazon.

Both solutions will cost you around US$20-30 each. It's up to you to see if it is worth the cost. But you will definitely know if your battery is dead or if it is the unit that's not charging the battery.

If you go for this solutions, the outcome will definitely be a Win situation for you. Either you will have replaced the battery (if the battery is dead), or you will have two batteries and a charger (if it is the unit that is not recharging your battery).

My camera wont stay on it bleeps once then turns off

That sounds like your battery could be dead/not hold a charge. If you've charged your battery already and your camera still won't stay off and turns off right away, it's time to purchase a new battery for your Samsung TL105.

You can purchase replacement batteries quite cheap here:
