If you were serving a sentence of probation and you have absconded - you are now a fugitive from justice (an escaped prisoner) and in addition to having to serve the remainder of your original sentence behind bars, the escape charge will be added to it.
No, you're not 'an escaped prisoner' unless you've physically escaped from custody or a secure facility. So no, it's not an additional charge by itself. It's a violation of probation and nothing more. Nor is it automatic that you will serve the remainder of your sentence behind bars. That's not even the maximum allowable punishment, since the court doesn't have to consider your time on probation as time served.
Probation violations are a major slap in the face to the court and the court has a lot of room to play when it comes to sentencing. You will probably see jail time even with a good lawyer. How much truly depends on the circumstances involved and the judge's mood at the hearing. Expect to sit in jail while waiting for that hearing as well, since there's usually no bond/bail set for violators.

∙ 14y agoProbation is sentence for being found guilty of an offense. It is impossible to say how an individual judge will rule on a VOP. It could be as severe as up to being remanded to jail to serve the remainder of the sentence behind bars.

But most often, in the overloaded California juvenile justice system, nothing happens when someone violates probation. The probation may be extended.

There's no way of answering this question. It is totally up to the discretion of the judge who originally sentenced him. If the judge believes he intentionally failed to report his change of addres in an effort to avoid probation requirements, he COULD be sent to jail to serve the remainder of his sentence behind bars.
