I attached the usb cable from my computer and that seemed to help boot up the device. On start up it literally had 0% charge. The device would still work and when fully charged I could take out the cable and use it as normal. However, the device simply refuses to shut down and generally it is much more unstable. Initially, it did say the googleframework app crashed or something like that, so I decided to uninstall that and the android market in the hopes of resolving this issue for good.

Unfortunately, the same issue has occurred today. It froze, i used the cable to help boot it up and there is 0% charge. I think it is important to know that ever since the initial crash, there has been an orange light that flashes on and off (near the power button).

What does this mean? And should I recover my device? (I am a little unsure about recovering as I haven't done much reading on it, so what exactly does that do? Or is there another solution?).
Some more details: I have installed 2 games from the market, I used a mod version of the homescreen (the one that changes recently added to recently read), I also installed an alternative homescreen (This one: http://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/201...reader-prs-t1/) But the weird thing is that the reader was working perfectly for around 2 weeks, so I really cannot pinpoint the cause.
If more detail is needed please ask.hanks.
Sounds like the perfect "sling it back at the retailer you bougfht it from for a replacement, nothing else acceptable - unless you've bricked it so bad by now your warranty's done for .........
