Iriver h320 battery problems

Probably you installed wrong. Depending on the battery manufacturer, the end contacts must be swithced in order for the battery to work. Read about it in the Misticriver forums. Good luck!

buy a battery kit from the site underneath your question and install it yourself.I did this-cost $29 now my iriver h320 has anew life and is better than ever!

After 3 years constant use my iriver H320 would not charge.I bought a new battery kit online and fitted it myself.Now its like having a new iriver!
p.s. not bad for a technophobe eh!

can i suggest that you download rockbox software (it does everything iriver firmware but is not a strain on the battery life) www.rockbox.org for h320.....................and or you can buy a new battery, here an ebay link http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-High-Capacity-1700MAH-Battery-iRiver-H320-H110-FSH_W0QQitemZ390057094924QQihZ026QQcategoryZ20336QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Sounds like a battery problem. You'll need to replace it.If you have the expertise there are instructions on the net.

Sounds like you'll need a new battery.

did you turn off your USB so that the AC adapter can get through to recharge your battery.

Re chargables are not forever, and it could be the culprit here. Also if it has a power save more it may decide you are not using the player and not sensing your browsing. Maximum life span of a normal use rechargable is 2 years or the hours marked on the packaging it came in, like 3000. Do the math. High energy drain devices also wear out their batteries faster if the backlight and keys are in constant use, turn the brightness down and run off a list of your tunes from you computer program and look at that.

Hi Andy- I have the same problem. Spoke to IRvier America & was told that they have no repair service for anything out of warranty- so we're on our own. Was also told that there are third party repair companies that can be found online. Myabe between the 2 of us we can find a solution. Care to keep in touch? Terese
