Had my rx200 for a couple months now and loved it. Now it wont fire I just get "check battery".

I Always charge batteries on my 4bay intellicharger but was tired and plugged it into my phone charger which ive done before with no issues.

My dog walks by and barely tips the mod over and now it wont work. Argggg!

Im using all new lg he4's...never had an issue before. Tried different matched pair ...same thing. I took the front bezel off to see if there was any shorts ... didnt see any shorts or damage. Popped bats back in and still "check battery". And the mod gets hot.

last update I did was 3.0.

so is the mod toast?
same because I really love the ergonomics/bat life of this mod.
Is a dna200 chip a drop in upgrade?
anything I can do?

Ouch, that's a bummer. Sounds like your dog wanted to make you a RX200 paperweight.

If its getting hot, I wouldn't use it, but I'm not an electronics expert.

Would be cheaper (and easier) to just pick up a new RX200 than trying to transplant a DNA200 into it. It is not a "drop in" operation necessarily. I saw an image tutorial on imgur, or reddit, or on imgur from reddit, and it doesn't look terrible if you have the tools, and skill necessary, it can be done. Main thing, other than reverse polarity, is the screen sizes are different. I guess you could try to just drop one in, but the screen would be cut off on the DNA200, and you would have no reverse battery protection.

sounds like the tip over caused a solder point to break off the board on one of the batter leads? could open it up and check for that.

Check the ground screw it might be loose. A lot of them came loose.

I see some mentioning a foam plug on top left sled screw....mine didnt have a plug.
Only screw I seen was a gold one on face of the board.

I will have to mess with it more when I get home from work.

This sucks....all my mods suck compared to the rx200....but I dont want to buy another if they break this easy

So I finally got the Ti coil for my TFV4 & I'm loving it! Regular Ti mode seems to work well with this coil but I'm a fiddler! I know it's in this thread someware but I'm too lazy to go find it So what is a good starting point TCR for Ti?
