    Okay first problem which is always been there

    The quick touches are very erratic and sometimes the gieger counter goes crazy and the volume doesn't want to work right. It will just keep going back to the point i started. Don't say try to take the battery out and hold the power button, i do that already. And I think i updated everything again today even though i have done it before.

    Second, Me and my gf are trying to video chat over aim and were having a lot of feedback problems. I turned my speakers off and it seemed to stop it. So my guess, the speakers are pushing sound up to the mic and causing said feedback. any solutions...

    Thirdly, i think for some reason i don't have the extended battery. My gf just plugged her dv5 into my charger and it said that she could use a higher voltage charger. She also thought that her charger was bigger. We would compare but hers is in new york. Any way if i can tell if i got the extended battery i was supposed to get...
