Cannot load the battery

Hello everyone,

I have my meizu m6 miniplayer for less than a month and I must admit that it is really nice, except when it comes to reload the battery.

Indeed I tried all the possibilities:
- loading it when it's initially off discharge my battery, no matter what I do
- loading it when it's on sometimes load my battery, but at approximatively at a third.

I find it hard to believe that my battery is already dead, but maybe there was a factory problem with it? The very first load of the battery went fine, but all the next ones had the problem I mentionned before.

What can I do? Is there a special way to reload the battery? Should I send my miniplayer back to Meizu?

Thanks

-The PC has to be turned on (or in standyby mode)
-Don't use self-powered usb hubs

Sorry to hear that. Just curious, were you able to charge the battery before, ever? Or you could never charge it since new (seems unlikely but had to ask)? Also when you tried to charge the battery with the M6's power turned off, the display on the M6 should show a battery and says 'charging', is yours doing that? It would be easier for people to help if you can give more detailed description.

Your motherboard might be magnetized, in this (rare) case there's no way to repair it, you should ask for a replacement

I could charge my battery the first time; it was initially off and all went fine.

I did the same the second time (my battery then had a quarter of its power), but when it said my battery was fully charged, it was in fact empty.

After two other trials to charge it again this way, where each times the Meizu told me the battery was fully charged when in fact it was fully discharched, I managed to charge at approximately 1/3 of full charge, but this time I tried this when the Meizu was initially on.

Now I tried a third time, but there is nothing I can do. When I try to charge it, indeed it displays "battery charging" but shortly after "battery full" (sometimes the battery is so much discharged that it cannot reach this moment and shut downs when it prints "loading ..." in white over black).
Does not work when it is initially on either (it shut downs after a while).

I very much think there is a problem with the recharge of the battery, but even if it is fixed my battery surely has been damaged in the processo of reloading it...

Oh, and I tried using both self-powered USB hubs and bus-powered hubs. Which one is better?

I'm also interested by knowing if my motherboard is magnetized. How could I know it? What could I do so that it does not happen again in the future?

Thank you very much
Matthieu

Bus-powered. You need 400mA to charge your player and the USB ports directly on your computer and on bus-powered USB Hubs can provide 500mA.
Self powered USB Hubs can only provide 125mA, which is not enough to charge your player! In a rare case the usb hub or the player can be damaged.
