I bought a 20w istick in late December, and it's worked well enough until now. The battery is dead, so I plugged the charger into it like usual but it's not charging. I've swapped devices and cords to eliminate the charger as the problem, they work fine on other devices. The charging port seems to have a lot of play, and if I move the charger around I can get the charging indicator to flick on for a few seconds, then it stops.
The insert that came with it states that it's not under warranty since it was purchased through a 3rd party, so I need to make it work if at all possible. Buying another, unfortunately, is not an option because I'm dead broke (as in less than $5 to my name right now).
I have a good quality soldering iron and I'm not afraid to pull things apart (at this point there's nothing to lose anyway) so what are the most likely culprits? Also, how easy is it going to be to slip everything out the bottom of the case without doing irreparable damage? Thanks in advance, I'm going to go insane it it's just dead.
