full charge small glitch
 
hi!!

i happen to charge my N900 last night, but this time, the battery is fully drained.

i plugged in, "carefully" my wall charger, charging starts but i keep the N900 off.

when fully charged, i unplug the charger first, then switch on the device.

in my surprise, my device wont turn on!!! what i did is, as a simple troubleshooting i learned from symbian phones, remove and install the battery and its on.

I know its not a problem but I just wanna know what is causing this or if this is just Normal. its the second time this happened, of course the device was also off when the glitch first occur.

Others have reported the same thing, so it seems to be pretty normal. If you wait for a minute after unplugging it, before trying to switch on, then it should also work.

It's NOT a bug OR a glitch. The reason this happens it when you plug in your N900 to charge it switches on so that it can check the battery level and keep flashing the LED (and monitor the whole charging process).

BUT it doesn't fully switch on, like it would when you press the on switch.

So you leave it for a few seconds to switch off and then press the power button, this was the same with the N800 and N810, and also my N95.

Best way is to switch on your device, THEN unplug the charger.
