Xyboard Battery Charging Problem

[Elysian893]

I'm having the same issue with my Xyboard 10.1, it's maddening. It was charged to 90% 2hrs ago and is already down to 30%... 5% usually lasts 3-5hrs, if not more. Driving me nuts. Sometimes I'll pull it off the charger and it'll immediately drop down to 5% when it's been charging all night!

My battery has gotten even worse since my last post. I just did a factory reset to see if that will help but I doubt it will. I'm not looking forward to going through Asurion to fix this.

It doesn't help. I've tried

Yeah, I haven't taken my Xyboard off the charger at all today, it's been on since last night and it's at 20%.

Asurion is sending me a warranty replacement.

Should I return mine to Motorola? I'm getting sick of this

No, that would have been too much to ask obviously. I got my replacement yesterday though and it's so nice to see 100% again. This one also doesn't seem lock up often like my old one so I'm happy about that as well. I rooted it again immediately and restored my Titanium Backup so it's like nothing ever happened. I did unroot my previous one though, manually. Was pretty simple.

I am having that same problem with my xyboard ME. This is a replacement which I received in the end of march 2012... not even 45 days old.
I suspect that the problem is the connection/connector. unlike blackberry and samsung, the xyboard does not fit snug (tight), thus there will be a play and thus wearing of the connection. Chalk it up to poor engineering and loose tolerances. The on-board hermaphrodite connector is; too wide at the opening and too thin at the tongue(insert).
I have already sent them and email last night telling them that I am having charging issues and they will have to retrofit the connector or refund me my $499.00. Ridiculous!
