I have a full reset whenever I take the battery out to recharge it. Given that all replacement motherboards will be as old as the unit, is there anyway to fix the board (I presume it’s a capacitor or super cell that keeps the charge long enough to swap the battery over normally?). The three cells seem to be soldered onto the board, but I presume could be replaced?

Anyone know of a way to fix this?
