Did i mess up my e507?

[ammar_s007]

First i'd like to say that this is a great forum and that i'm new here. I got an e507 for christmas, and I started charging it like it says. around the 1 hour mark, i decided that i would update the firmware version to 2.0. after updating, it says that the battery was full. I only charged it for 1 hour. It appears that the new firware automaticly made the e507 think it was fully charged at only 2/3 the way full. Do you guys think that I will get a full charge? I hope i didn't mess it up so fast. thanks

No,I Don`t think so while you were upgrading to the firmware your battery was also charging at the same time ...So I think you haven`t done anything wrong..Also charging time dependes upon how much battery was depleted before charging

When I was downloading the firmware on mine it said in the instructions to wait untill it was full, maybe this is why. hopefully it isnt broken try contacting sony

it is unlikely you broke it. If you feel you need to fix the problem or test how long the battery will last do this if you have the time.

First transfer some files to it, mp3 or atrac and discharge the player completely, then recharge fully.

Then add 128kbps mp3s on it, and let it play, compare how long it will play with the amount sony quotes.

do you remeber where it said this? (i thoght i read the instructions right, but it was late.)

i hope i didn't decrease my batterylife by that much

Just try draining and filling the battery 3 times, as should be done with any new lithium ion battery to condition it.

does this help a not brand new battery as well? like would it set it to its "best" setting?
