Hmm..I just got mine and I THINK I might have the same issues. I have had it on the charger for a couple of hours now BUT the screen where the battery bars are keeps flickering but the rest of the screen is fine. COuld it be the same problem or another one...I havent even set the damn thing up yet!!Its been on the charger for about 3 hours and it still not fully charged. The bars are cycling though...
