Background
I have this kindle Voyage for 4 years which I barely used it. It is in 100% condition!! I ussually charged it for the first 3 years until its last year , I left it uncharged for about 10 months.
What happened
Last week I picked this kindle up because my friend wanted to buy it from me since I barely used it. I charged it to full and I sideloaded books and tons of PDF for him ,everything worked fine and I sent him the kindle. He received it and used it for a few days then he said the kindle got frozen on the main screen after he downloaded a book from Amazon. power button won't do anything and the brightnesss keeps looping
The symptoms
- The screen freezes , tried 40 seconds holding power with plugged and unplugged with the wall the charger. try different USB cables
- Left charging about 24 hours but the LED is still orange (maybe because the screen is flashing and using the battery?)
- Unplugged ; when I starts holding the power , the LED turn green and blinks for 5 times then it turns orange and blinks for 5 times then the brightness of the screen goes off and then on again
- Computer won't detect the Kindle device.
- If left unplugged , the screen will keep flashing for hours until you press the power key again justt to activate the brightness loop , unless the battery has run out ,then it really stops flashing even pressed the power key
Do you guys think it's because of the battery? I'm desperate to fix this kindle because I already sold him and used the money to buy a tablet device
P.S I opened the back of the cover and I removed the battery and it doesn't help.
I'm going to put the video I recorded the actual footage of it
