How long did you charge it for? Did you use a standard wall charger that came with the package? I would recommend buying a new battery from a trusted seller and a smart charger and it will solve any issues now and in the future.

We are having the same problem. It indicates that it is charged, but won't hold the charge very long. We are going to return ours also. my son is going to be very upset. Not happy with this product at all!

Let it go completely go dead, then charge it overnight/all day until fully charged. After that, try not to let it die out if you can. But mine lasts for two or three hours at a time. Also check what programs you are using...that may be draining your battery as well. Hope this helps.

Wow i thought i was the only one... i bought it just over a year and a half and mine has stopped holding its charge aswell. I believe a new battery would solve the problem though. If you find one please let me know aswell.

The battery that I installed in my phone was fully charged in about 4 hours. If the battery that you recieved won't charge you might have got a defective one. I would try cleaning the contacts on the battery and your phone and then try to charge it again. If that dosen't work then you will have to return it for replacement. I hope that answers your questions.

Try putting it on the charger. If you can get it to stay on do a factory reset on it

I've read that these sometimes have a break-in period and that the charging indication corrects itself after a few days of use. I'd try charging it up and using it and recharging it a few times to see if that helps. Only "problem" is that the charge lasts a long long time! Good luck.

When I first got mine, I charged it for a least 24 hours. The On/Off switch should function easy to turn the device on/off. I am not sure WHAT is the problem with yours. It very well may be a defected device......?Sorry, Wish you luck...!

I have the same the problem. It may common cause of battery. Got a new one last year. It works fine until now but I don't know for how long. Nothing you can do to make it works since it no longer hold charged.

Im not sure. Try turning it on and letting it charge up. Maybe it needed the day to charge. Both mine work.

I had the same thing happen. Unplug and use system to deplete power and then recharge. May take a couple uses but mine bounced right back and recharges fine now. Also holds a longer charge now. The more you use it, the better it seems to perform.

May need to reboot it or flip the side buttons alot and then plug it in again and recharge it ..just guessing.

Hi, I am having the same problem with mine. I am sure these are defective items that are being resold. I have to shut it down, power cord in, turn it back on and then manipulate the cord just so. Sometimes it takes a few tries. When if starts to charge, I leave if alone, because it will stop even if lightly tapped. The charge doesn't last very long though. Very disappointed. I should have returned it when I got it.
