Help!!!

Hi, I have the Motorola Flipout by Android and I just pretty much got it but for some reason when I plug it into its charger it wont charge at all. I did get confused by thinking that one of those camera cords plugged into my computer was my charger so I tried to shove it in but it didn't fit, I then realized that it wasn't my charger. I don't know if that has anything to do with my phone not charging. so i plugged my phone in its real charger and it turns on and everything, it shows an empty battery on the screen just like normal so I let it charge. I come back later that day and think it should be done charging, but when I turn it on it still shows that empty batter, so I let it charge all night and in the morning still the empty battery. I started going into panic mode because i really need it today. I looked at the manual but it only has it in Spanish and i cant read Spanish like at all.
please help! :confused:
 
Welcome france2005! :)
Sorry you are having charging issues there. It may be related to your wrong plug. But do you have another cord you could try? I know they are kinda small but can you see in the charging port for any damage? Does the charging cord seem to insert easier/harder than before?
Here is a link for your phone to see if anyone else may have had the same issue as you do:

Hi Mikestony, I have looked in the charging port very closely and didn't see anything wrong. I have also tried cleaning the port with a brand new soft bristled toothbrush but still nothing. I have tried plugging the charger into different outlets, but the battery keeps on showing empty. I've tried taking the battery out for thirty seconds and putting it back in but that didn't work either. I don't think its the battery because I just got it, I have used it allot and did drop it a few times but it has no scratches or signs of being dropped.

Is there anything else I can do?
 
You said you got the phone recently? First try a different charging cord, then if that does not work, can you bring it back for repair/exchange? Do you have insurance for it? :)
