I've had problems with my iPod for a while, but I've always found a bit of a workaround - not this time.
Basically, the dock on the iPod is totally messed up. You have to bend the connector in a certain way to get it to charge. That worked for a while. Now, though, it won't even hold a charge. I plug it in, it says it's charging, but it won't charge. When I plug it in with some battery power, it zaps down the battery power and goes to 20%, or worse, goes to the "dead battery" mode where it tells you to plug it in.
I will be able to plug it in, go up to 20%, but then it dies again. I've tried plugging it into the computer to restore it, but even that doesn't seem to work - while it says that it's charging, it doesn't show up in the computer.
Help! I'm afraid my iPod (1g) is bricked.
