I'm sorry i don't understand your question.
Are you sure you have the model which has a rechargeable lithium battery and a usb charging port?
The other model takes 2 aaa replaceable batteries. Slide off the cover to fit.

So what is wrong with your box and which droidbox do you have? We might be able to help.
In the meantime post a link to the vip mouse you have from the droidbox accessories page.
Have you used the standard remote that comes with your droidbox? Not perfect but it works.

Theres a removeable panel above the usb charging port. Covering the 3 power and mouse on/off buttons. Remove it and take a look abd see if there is anything visible rattling about.
Does the remote actually charge or is the whole port missing?
In the meantime use the remote that comes with the box to continue viewing.

Most issues are resolved quite quickly, especially teething problems with the basics. If you have the VIP remote control ( https://droidbox.co.uk/droidbox-tm-vipremote.html ) then you will need to connect the USB dongle to your DroidBOX for it to work. This dongle is usually in the battery compartment, which would lead to a rattling sound until removed.
If it is a VIP Plus remote ( https://droidbox.co.uk/droidbox-vip-plus-mini-keyboard-airmouse-remote.html ) then there shouldn't have been anything loose inside it, our apologies.

If you haven't already and still want to send to back to us as a change of mind return, please send us an e-mail (see my signature for details), including the order ID.
