iPod Nano 8Gb Mp3/Mp4 doesn't turn on

[masterlee]

Hi Guys

I just got a ipod nano 8gb [fake], was meant to receive the ipod nano 4gb but when i got it, it was a fake so yeah and i cant be bothered claiming my money back.

I cant get it to turn on, i press the turn on button at the top, then hold play which is the middle button and it doesnt turn on. then i connect it to the usb charger which works fine.

can somebody help me

Thanks

masterlee,

How long have you left it charging through the USB charger?

Can you try charging it through the wall charger instead? It might be a fault with the USB cable in that it doesn't charge the player properly so the wall charger might help.

If the wall charger doesn't charge your player, then it sounds like a hardware problem with the player itself. It might be that the connectors on the board is not connected properly so the charge is not getting to the battery but enough to power up the board.

Hey thanks for the reply,

Yeah when i put it in the USB charger i can go through the menus and plays songs etc. With the Ipod nano 8gb there is no wall charger. I'll leave it in the usb charger for a while n see what happens

damn i left it in the USB charger all night, pull it out, and the futherest i got is to the hour glass screen then in flashes.

Only works fine when its in the charger, but the song only plays for like 10 secs while in the charger

I guess its stuff

firmware:

LG Mp3 Player
dx75002v2, xm50015, act_v9 1.52

any suggestion, maybe firmware upgrade?

Hey hi...can u post a image of ur nano? maybe it's the same one as mine. In the back has the ipod logo?

yeah i had that problem sometimes with a Master-G 512mb....but i solucionated it keeping pressing it for a long time...like 30 secs to 1 min maximum, then it turned on. Or just turn OFF from the side, wait and then turn ON again.

L8er!
