Yep, this needs to go for a warranty replacement/repair. The charging port can get loose, I've had this happen on a Voyage of mine, it would only charge then the cable was held at a certain angle.
There are third-party sites that will repair this, but if you have a warranty then this is what it is for. It will only get worse so get it fixed now. |

Thanks, Barry. I waited to see if it straightened out, but it just got worse, so I called SquareTrade, and they sent me a new Kindle. As far as refurbished, I don't know. It said all-new Kindle, but Generation 7. So now all I have to do is get a black felt tip marker to cross out the tracking number, and send tape to afix the labels, and I can send the old one back to Amazon. I use the 3 G, as I don't have wireless. I deregistered it though. My new Kindle works great! Thanks to all for your help and recommendations. |
