Last week I had an issue with my DINC2 not charging. The battery would drain VERY fast, and when I plugged it in, I would get a warning stating that the charge was not "enough" for the phone. At that time, I thought the charger was going bad, so I turned the phone off, and normally it would charge up just fine. Then, one night, it didn't charge at all, even off. When I plugged it in, I got a slow blinking light instead of the normal solid light. I brought it into Verizon, and somehow, magically, they charged it. And then my car charger worked. I thought it was just a fluke.
Well, the battery still drains fast, and I was still getting the message about the charger not being "enough" to charge. And even with 4 different chargers, I still had to wiggle repeatedly to get it to charge. Well, yesterday, it died, and I could not charge it at all. Still can't. I activated my fiancee's Droid2 until I can get to a verizon store (which uses the same charger as the DINC2 and has no issues with any of the chargers I tried). Now I am seeing that this is a huge issue for a lot of people. Sometimes repeatedly.
Is there any way for Verizon to replace the DINC2 with something else that doesn't have known hardware flaws? Yes, I have the insurance, but I don't know about factory warranty, I don't remember exactly when I got the phone.
Thanks,
Kate
PS: Yes, I tried battery pulls and hard resets. Nada.
