Can't Turn Off My Pandora

[mr.miyagi]

Got my Pandora replacement a couple of days ago which is great, but I cant turn it off.

Every time I turn it off, then after 30 or 40 secs it automaticly turn on again. The only way that I can turn it off is to take out the battery.

I tried to reinstall the firmware with hotfix 5, but that didnt helped.

Any idea why this happens?

That can have two reasons:

1. The Pandora is connected to AC. It won't shut down with AC, as charging control is done by the CPU
2. The battery doesn't do proper contact. Try putting a piece of paper between the battery and the battery cover to push down the contacts.

I can't turn mine off either. Every time I try to, I think of something else I can do with it. Please help.

Spoiler

Sorry

I was about to go insane because of this, but the paper trick helped.

Thanks ED

Along those same lines, have a look at the underside of the battery and make sure there are no wrinkles in the wrapping near where the contacts are. That could be contributing to the problem.

He that also worked, now i can turn it off without the paper.

Thanks gruso
