Charging Bug

[Brian Gobrecht]

I recently been having problems with my band 2 charging. Decided to take it into my local MS Store to exchange it. Got a brand new one and updated it with current firmware. If you're having charging problems as in it not charging 80% in 30 min it's the firmware not working correctly not the charger. Just a heads up to all.

Current Firmware: 2.0.3923.0 26 R

I've the same problem: 25% in 30 min and crashed down from 80% noon yesterday to 2% today morning without doing anything. But if this is the firmware is this not fixable and is it sure that the replacement doesn't has this too?

My new one is a different lot number so it's the firmware that's acting up. And it started with not this one but the previous one. This firmware was the 2nd in 2 weeks when it came out I think it was real quick to come out. The one before that was fine in detecting the fast charging. But since its the holidays and all MS has a problem with not working on things close to the holidays which both seems BS and right at the same time. They will hopefully fix the bug and have it working again I'm thinking mid next month.

Something crazy: after I did some steps and went back to charge it completly: Before plugin the battery symbol was nearly full und after plugin it said 78% (35% at the end of the last charging). So it charged but not recognized it... I'm wondering what would happen if I would have wait until it has charged up to 100% and if the battery could take any damage of this.

This could be the reason why I have to charge it so often...

yeah also a good idea when something bad is going to happen you'll see the LE along withthe normal pairing as a pairing options. noticed that when everything was happening
