It shows the animation of "charging" and that text saying my "Nook's battery charge is too low to power on, please wait 15 minutes" but this message is on display forever...
Any folks encountered a similar problem?

I have a similar problem: After having very short usage times (charging daily even with wi-fi off), my STN stopped working yesterday. It has the same "Please wait 15 minutes" note. I've tried pressing the "on" button for 20 seconds and then pressing it for 10 seconds: it will not boot. I have plugged it in to the adapter and to a computer; the orange light does not come on - it will not charge.
I'm very tempted to do the process recommended for the other nooks: remove the battery, plug it in, boot and reinstall the battery. This will require disassembly which I believe I can do having seen the tear down photos on TR.
I live in Thailand and do not have access to a B&N store.
