    hi all,
    I just got a dv9212tx from Hong Kong, my problem is that it wont charge past 60 - 61%, the laptop is powering fine but just wont charge any further past this point.

    I changed the adapter cable to an Australian cord, I dont think that will make any difference though?

    Any help is appricated

    is it an hp cord or a third party cord?
    also, check the wear on the battery

    The charger is a HP charger, I got the cord from a local electronics shop. The battery is new as with the notebook

    Your battery could be losing its charge
