For the past couple months my previously well functioning Glo HD would not connect to a computer. Whether plugged into a computer or a simple power source it would continuously flash the 'connect' prompt. Usually it would eventually hang the reader, and occasionally it would settle on the charging state and would charge. Now however it's not going into the charge mode at all, meaning I can't charge it.
Any idea what's gone bad? It could be as simple as the plug connection bing bad, and so would be worth repairing, but am I right to suspect something deeper has gone bad given the really strange behaviour? Seems like the connection is being continuously reset or something.
This is really annoying since I'm 9 months into a pan-American motorcycle trip and now have no books. I can take to an electronics repair shop (currently in Colombia close to Ecuador), but I'd need to be explicit with what's wrong I think.
It just keeps doing this until it hangs:
