Battery charge beeps randomly coming on
Last modified: 2010-09-13 11:26:53 UTC
7.5.1 8837 Battery connection beep randomly comes on. NOT really Random! By waving or placing a FAB 4 in front of Radio at a "just so" angle the IR appears to cause Radio to think it has detected a battery. If in standby state there is the fast beep, beep beep of making a battery connection. If in powered up state you get the beeps and the battery icon also appears on the display. There are likely other IR emitter sources that will trigger this as well. This appears to be the cause of an RMA

I found that I also got the beep as a result of the IR port on my laptop transmitting. Just want to be sure this case is contained with the fix.
Ryan - this case should be fixed too. In fact all random IR causing this should now be ignored.
