I haven’t used my GameShell for a few years and now the battery is not charging. The device can turn on with USB plugged in, but the battery stays at 0% even after overnight. I have seen some related posts but they suggests the batteries die. I personally don’t believe the battery can die so easily. I have many Nintendo handhelds, some are close to 20 years old and the battery still works.
I read some posts about new uConsole has issues of slow or no charging due to clockworkpi programming error. uConsole: How Does Charging Work? - #9 by supercom32 I wonder if this is what is happening here. Maybe somewhere in the code says no charging when battery is at 0% or when battery is 0% it thinks there is no battery attached and therefore doesn’t charge it. Does anyone have idea about how I might fix this issue? Is there a way to force the console to apply current to the charging port?
