charging issues

My problem is that when i plug my nook in the nook symbol is green meaning is charged. However when i go to "settings" it says I am at 24%. No matter what i do it seems to remain at 24 %. Keeping it plugged in doesnt change it nor di,oes unplugging it. I tried doing a reboot by holding the power button for 30 seconds then quickly tapping and releasing but it makes no difference what i do. I am not having a problem with anything else on it, so i dont know what to do. Advice?

Re: charging issues

I'd try another charger. Even with the screen off, another USB charger should give you some charge, but ideally,  try another B&N charger. It's possible yours is dead. If the gauge never drops below 24%, even in use, that is a problem. Or are saying it will charge UP to 24%?

Re: charging issues

I had a problem with my NC never dropping below 92% in settings after the recent upgrade. The fix was to completely power off the NC for a minute and then restarting it. Maybe this would work for you also.

The "n" on my cord would show green even though my NC needed to be fully charged.  I contacted tech chat support on BN website and they sent me a new one.  All is good now, until this cord acts up..
