The Belkin charger for an iPhone works well too. I has a USB connection into the charger that I change out to the mini-USB cord. I could also charge the DR with an HTC tilt phone charger, but couldn't run the device with it. Hope something works for you.

Thank you for your immediate reply, td.
For my device, I bought a somewhat expensive wall charger which says it guarantee its voltage and currency.. Although its surfacial condition was so dirty but it may have no problem usually.. And my device wasn't turned on at the first time and its light, either since I got it. This seems the point of the problem. Its battery seems dead or half-dead just like my last DR800SG's - the Li-ion battery shouldn't be discharged at all for a long time, you know.
Therefore, in my view, changing or reviving the battery will be the solution to this problem.. I'd like to leave changing the battery as my last card.
So, how can I revive the battery?
