@karmylla  that sucks, hope you get it sorted out and get a replacement. |
I got it to work but I seem to have broken off a small piece of the part on the board where the battery clips to. The H2O turns on when connected to a micro USB cable and the LED's immediately turn off when I unplug the cable. Either the battery is broken or it's not connecting properly because of what I broke.
Even with the cable connected, sometimes the touch screen just stops working (even with the LED's still lighting up) so I'm not really sure what else is wrong.
Screen seems a little washed out especially around the top but I could have lived with it. As of now I'm not sure if purchasing another battery is an option since I'm not sure if it's the battery that's not working or if it's the broken piece on the board itself.
Update: I opened up the reader again and tried reseating the battery clip. It's now turning on without the cable.
Frostschutz also made a really good suggestion of taking pictures as you go which I did. I'll be posting a step by step of what I did soon in case it helps anyone else in the same boat
