    Thanks for your note. No change to the display when plugged in. Before it went blank it was over 80% charged. At this point it continues to sit on, with the dark (partially lit) screen. Sometimes I believe I can turn it off - by pressing the lower left button the. The area of the screen that usually displays "turn off" in red, as the screen does go fully dark as when it's off. When I try a hard reset from there, the dark (partially lit) screen comes back and blinks intermittently. But nothing else happens (hard reset is not achieved as far as I can tell - screen never even fully lights up).

    thanks - I'd love to. Is there a phone number you are able to share? or just the chat box?

    thanks again!

    Hi Ann, what was the outcome of this as my unit has done the same?

    Thanks, Dave

    I have the same problem - my unit is a black brick. I contacted support and got suggestions, but nothing worked, and I still have a little black brick. Out of warranty -> out of luck?

    No suggestions worked for me and they indicated it may be the lead/plug I was using for charging but that was a stab in the dark I think. I did have a nasty crash but the unit was undamaged so who knows!! Mine was just out of warranty so they kindly gave me a new unit under the crash replacement scheme for a discounted price. I was happy enough as I do really like my HH.
