Re: V3 wont charge !!!
Sometimes when I plug mine in, it gives me a message "unable to charge". To
circumvent that, I R&R the battery and replug it back in and it will charge.
Weird. Seems to do it if I am to quick to plug it in after powering it down.
Maybe you can do the same and see if that helps.

Re: V3 wont charge !!!
Even if you remove the battery altogether (plugged in, of course)?

No message - nothing. Tried removing the battery and giving the
contacts a wipe etc....

Re: V3 wont charge !!!
That could be dirty/corroded contacts. Try cleaning them.

If the battery is a year old or more it likely needs to be replaced.

Is this after you sat on it and replaced the cracked glass or before? Or is
it a totally separate V3?
Perhaps your ass did much more damage than you expected.
