suddenly stopped charging. Tried different leads and chargers but the
orange LED never comes on to indicate charging. We know that they work
on my Kindle. Pressing and holding the power button will briefly
elicit a green flash from the LED and the screen blanks then cycles
back to the ?low battery? image. I?ve had a look inside but nothing
appear loose and even if the power socket was loose it would be beyond
my skills to fix. The socket is clean internally (no fluff or grit
etc.). Anyone else had this problem? Would it be worth taking it
somewhere for a USB socket replacement working on it being the likeliest culprit?

Ive seen this on a kindle that has been left for ever and gotr really
low.IIRC we got it back by simply plugging it in and leaving it - for hours

Left it on charge overnight. No joy.
