iPAQ 310 won't shut down

Hi,

This is the most strange thing I've seen with a PDA or PNA. *The unit is
again in the mode where it can't be shut off. *It does shut off, but turns
back on all by itself about 3 seconds after it is turned off. *This occurs
only when connected to the unit's wall charger. *In my note below I stated
that the solution to the problem could have been using the "Suspend" option
from the start menu. *That does not work, so I must assume that the solution
was leaving the battery out of the unit overnight without it being connected
to external power. *I'll try that again after I go soaring tomorrow.

Has anyone else seen this?

Hi,

Thanks for the tips everyone.

It is working fine now. *I'm not sure if the fix was from leaving the
battery out of the unit overnight, or from selecting "Suspend" from the
start menu. *I can now turn it on and off using the on/off button and it
stays off even while connected to the wall charger.

Best Regards,

Hi,

I have been doing a lot of playing with my iPAQ 310 and SeeYou Mobile for
PNA. *Somehow the unit is now in a mode in which I can't turn it off so
that it stays off while connected to the wall charger. *Every time I turn
it off it turns itself right back on. *If I disconnect it from the wall
charger I can turn it off and it stays off. *I want to be able to charge
the unit with the unit turned off - to preserve the life of the backlight
as much as possible.

I don't think the unit did this when it was new. *I have a customer's
iPAQ 310 in hand and it will stay off while connected to a wall charger.
