Asus VivoBook F556: New Ifixit battery not charging past 0%

Thu, 19 Sep 2024 01:09:17 -0700

(alternate laptop model name is Vivobook X556) The battery that needed replacing was not charging to 100% and would drop to low percentage under some power demands. Online research led me to believe some of the cells had gone bad (no swelling, thank goodness), after checking my charger and device drivers. Ifixit's replacement battery has been plugged in for 5 hours, but has not charged above 0%. I saw no abnormalities under the hood during replacement, and I reopened it to check my work. Other likely diagnoses are appreciated, thanks.

Asus VivoBook F556: Asus vivobook won't boot if the adapter is not plugged in

Sun, 17 Sep 2023 04:00:36 -0700

I have an Asus Vivobook f505z laptop

After a motherboard replacement , that I did by myself , because the original got water damage ,

the laptop won't boot if the adaptor is not plugged in ..

if the adaptor is plugged in the pc will start normally by pressing the power button and all seems ok , after that I can unplug the adapter and the pc will run normally with the internal battery.

I can even unplug the battery right after the initial boot and the pc will boot with the battery , but if I shutdown the pc I have to plug the adapter to make it boot.

i checked all the connections and all seems fine everything work with this pc but

pressing the power button without the adapter plugged nothing happen why ?

anyone can face this issue ?
