  1. I've come in on an old thread but this may still help people still having problems. I have an N710 which was not holding charge apparently. I recently decided to resurrect it, bought a new battery. Sometimes it would charge, sometimes not. When it did playback, sometimes it would show low battery, then it would come back. Close inspection showed the contact in the flip top of the battery case was dirty - a quick wipe cleaned it. Looking inside the bottom contact is a poor design, instead of a flat contact with enough surface area it is a spike. If the end of that spike gets dirty there will be poor electrical contact. I recommend getting a Q tip, dampened with methylated spirits in there and cleaning the contact.
