I am charging my blu vivo xl because it seems the battery  is drained, should see an LED light telling me it is charging or will it take some time before I would see the LED light?

The BLU Vivo XL seems to suffer from some battery connection issues. A suggestion (from here) is:

Take out the battery. Fold a small slip of paper over a few times. Reinstall the battery with the paper wedged between the battery and the edge of the compartment opposite the contacts. The paper will force the battery against the contacts to elimina...

I'm not 100% positive, but I would assume the sentence ends, "to eliminate the lack of contact."

 

However, I can't say I would recommend this idea. Paper against batteries just sounds like a recipe for a fire.

    • Apart from a few very specific hiccups, Windows 11 has been good for me. Rock solid and stable. Unpopular opinion, I know, but it's mine.
    • No. Windows 8 had little to no spywhare, is actually faster than 7 but it has the dreaded start screen, nothing that you could not fix with start8. Windows ME crashed often, but was shotlived and replaced by XP, which is a much better windows in itself.
    • Windows 8 was uninspiring but it was fine / worked. It was just overshadowed by how great Windows 7 was. Windows ME seem to be just unstable for most people - I was using Windows 2000, which was far superior. The two best versions are Windows 7 and 2000
    • I don't think ME was that bad. The stability issues were mostly caused by drivers. This was when the switch from vxd to wdm was happening. The other complaint was not being able to shut down into DOS anymore which was silly with XP right around the corner.
    • As much as I hated Windows 8, although I never used it personally on any of my own machines, I think Windows Me was hands down the worst OS from MS. I have Windows 11 on 2 unsupported machines and haven't had any issues and I actually kind of like it. Still hate how slow Windows updates are though.
