Jmmm.... Well, like all things with rechargeable batteries, you need to unplug them when they are fully charged, because you are then only killing the batterie, it you think like this, you don't have all the time your cellphone connected to the charger.... I have the same model like you... And it's had been like six moths and It still works perfectly. I hope that my comment help you. PD. do not have your electrodomestics with rechargeable batterie connected all the time, that include your laptop for example.... Have a nice day and I hope that you can fix your BT3500B ;)

I purchased as a gift for my son at Christmas, he's had zero issues. Once the battery is fully charged, disconnect. Removing the connection from the laptop when finished using would prove ideal. Keeping it connected kills the battery much more quickly. Contact Philips or Batteries Plus is a great place to look. Hope this helps and good luck.

I agree. Send it back. Mine has been perfect. Changed the battery once and it works great.

battery is shot. The more you use it the less time it will last. Start looking on ebay or amazon for a replacement battery should cost 20-25 bucjs

I had to send mine back, it was not connecting via bluetooth and after trying for 2 hours I sent it back. i hope the replacement works better.

I have no problems with mine. I installed it 5 months ago - working perfectly. Make sure you follow the directions on the printed insert to cycle the battery before use. REMEMBER - the battery HAS TO BE CYCLED 4 to 6 times... that means FULLY charge the battery 10 hours and fully discharge it so the computer shuts down. Do this 4 or 5 times - this will make sure it reach full capacity. find out more here... http://www.laptopbattery1.com

With only the info you provided, I believe the battery in the laptop dead, very dead. An external power source cannot fix that!

Bring the burned out battery to any electronics store and just let the sales rep know that that one is burnt out and that you want the same battery. The battery on my model is still good.

I had the same issue with the replacement battery. It stopped working after about 3 months. I complained to amazon and got my money back.

I am sorry, I had the same problem. I ended up throwing it away and ordering a new one! I did not see any way to open it and replace a battery.

I think you should return the battery if it's not being detected by your laptop. Sorry for the late response. If you can't return it because it's so long since you purchased it try selling it.

Thanks Scott. I sent my info to you & it was forwarded on to Josh at HP. He sent me a replacement battery which I just got. I really appreciate all the help.

Contact Philips directly. Ask about battery replacement. I have not had battery failure yet so I don't have much information on that subject.

I tried installing the toshiba BT stack drivers. They seemed to work better for me. I was able to connect all if my BT devices with no problems. Google Toshiba BT stack.

I have the exact same problem. I have not purchased a new battery yet but in my case I am 99% sure I must have received a defective battery with the purchase of the radio. But I don't currently need it as a mobile radio.

Of this model exist two variants, and I bought unfortunately that one without BT...Now I have tried to install a driver for this function but it doesn't work. The machine is good, no complain, but at the moment to buy much better read carefully the technical details....

I had the same problem the screw was stripped that held the battery so no connection. I returned it!

I have the same laptop as you. I bought this battery because of the price and pretty good reviews. I DISAGREE. It will NOT stay connected and it died in record time. Total waste of money.
