If your friend told you he fixed the problem twice, why not ask him how to fix the problem? lol Edited October 15, 2014 by xZoneHunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crespelio-X12 Posted October 15, 2014 Author Share Posted October 15, 2014 As I have a bad English english comprehension through Vita microphones I don't understand that much. He was doing something so he couldn't type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memnoch Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I have noticed that the battery can say fully charged when it clearly isnt. Are you recharging through a pc or wall socket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobThanatos Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Please guys I need an answer. I'm so desperated. I don't know what's stopping you from messaging your friend. To me it just sounds like your battery has had it and there's no way of fixing it unless you replace the actual battery. You could try resetting the Vita to factory settings and see if it's a software issue, but I doubt it. I don't trust sending it back either. The people who receive them at Sony will likely just send you back a different Vita which actually works. Likely the current gen Vita. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crespelio-X12 Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 Noob question how to reset the Vita to factory settings? Sorry I forgot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STFUxDxD Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 If the battery is no longer holding a charge then it likely needs to be replaced. Unless you want to be tethered to a wall socket from now on. Same thing happened to a laptop I had; always needed to be plugged in because the battery was no good.

RobThanatos Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Noob question how to reset the Vita to factory settings? Sorry I forgot. Well if you want to try it, you best make sure your save files are uploaded. I believe you can do it from system settings or the safe menu.

ForsakenPulse Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I'd recommend sending it back and ensuring everything you have is saved to cloud storage in terms of your game saves and what have you. I used to work in a phone shop and we did the same thing Sony would probably do, replace it for a refurbished then fix it later. Generally if a factory reset doesn't solve the issue you could get the firmware re-flashed yet the best people to do that I would say would have to be Sony. Your "friend" was doing something he can't type, I dunno, call me a "glass half empty" kind of guy but he sounds full of crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ichiban-Hybrid Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Just sayin, It could be possible that the Vita charing port is defective.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crespelio-X12 Posted October 17, 2014 Author Share Posted October 17, 2014 If I send the Vita to Sony how much will it cost in euros? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crespelio-X12 Posted October 17, 2014 Author Share Posted October 17, 2014 So I finnaly got the courage to talk with my friend by mic so he said to open the Vita and re-adjust the battery. He says he had a friend this week with this problem and it worked. Gonna try to do that. Hope this works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntenseFATE98 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Don't open your Vita by yourself. Too risky if you mess up some way. Anyways, charge your Vita for a few more hours than the normal charge time. It might be that your Vita is showing the wrong reading. If there's still a problem, contact Sony. I don't think fsctory reset will help you tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crespelio-X12 Posted October 17, 2014 Author Share Posted October 17, 2014 When I charge it it keeps flashing red. I will take my own risks to do it. I'm sick of this. All In Or Nothin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I turn it on its fully charged but then it a second it gets battery low. Its possible that heat have caused harm to your battery by now, some may think that Vita being an handheld can't overheat a bit but it can depending on room temperature and if the game is a 3D heavy game hungry cpu power consumption (put your Vita in the pocket under this condition and fear the worst lol) so far only remember one game (Sen no Kiseki) making my rear touch pad quite warm after a while. Other possiblity to harm your battery is draining it to 0% countless times, this bad advice is what killed my laptop battery once Battery should be charged once you get the low battery message around 10% to 5%. Another possibility is if Vita did hit somewhere and battery got out of place, wouldn't recommend opening it if you don't have the experience, either send back or have someone you know that can do it.
