Help Lapdock not charging

I got one of the deals on a lapdock recently, havent used it a whole lot but did yesterday. After draining it down to where it told me it needed to be charged, Ive had it on the charger full about a full day, and batter level shows that it hasnt changed but it still keeps flashing like its charging. Anyone else had any similar problems?
 
Are you looking at the indicator on the top of the LCD screen because that would be for the battery level on the phone only. The lapdock indicator is below the mouse pad front edge. Press the battery button and the little dots should light up 1 thru 5 indicating the charge level.
I'm using mine right now and charging. I started with one dot on the indicator about an hour ago and it is showing 2 dots now. Seems to be charging slowly but surely.

Is your batt level indicator showing anything??
 
... and the indicators on the lapdock are very hard to see (the first time) if you are in a brightly lit location. Try a darkened room. After you once know where they are it is obvious. Finding them the firs time (for me) was a bit of a challenge.

Maybe it was just my lapdock.

With the lapdock closed, near the back right on top is a white light that fades on and off while charging and turns solid white when charged. Is that what you say is flashing? When completely drained it takes quite a while to charge, but it shouldn't take more than a full day.
 
Yea, the battery level gauge on the front shows 1 white dot. Been plugged in for 2 days now, and no change in battery level, just keeps showing like it is charging, but nothing.
