The charger connection on my i730 has been on the fritz for several months. If I don't wiggle it just the right way and then lay it down softly, the charger flashes orange to red and doesn't charge the battery. Forget even trying the cradle, my phone prefers a diect connection at this point.
If I don't notice the problem, like when my kids bump the phone on the charging station, the battery drains itself to fully discharged as it sits there. Then I have to fight to get it restarted.
That was until today. Now it won't restart. No matter how I wiggle, soft reset, shake, ratlle and roll this thing is dead. There's an empty spot in my life where this damn phone connected me to the outside world. OK that's a bit dramatic, but how am I going to know where I am going next?
I might have had the phone repaired or replaced sooner, but I have been waiting for the i760 to be released. I'm like a strung out junkie waiting for a fix from my dealer. So I'll take that report of car chargers arriving at stores as a good sign. I'm off to the Verizon store to explore my short term (hopefully) options and to beg them for some information on the release of the replacement.
