Thank you for pointing out the micro-switch issue. I have been able to move files to pc and this has freed space. I also think it is a capacity issue and a wifi download that was overwriting memory. Finally after a few minutes, suddenly the screen came on! but this was the charging screen, showing 50% charge. Tried switching the micro switch manually- Success !- orange light charging. I air jetted it and then tried again.-orange light for 14 seconds then off. Once I put my reading glasses on I could see it. I suppose 10 years and one would expect this. I'll probably buy a new battery, but I'm still glad I was able to get it back from death. I'm still charging it twice a day, hoping battery life may still improve a little. At this time, it lasts about 4 or 5 hours, and I gets "fully charged" (light turns green) after an hour on the fast charger. Now, this kindle and its battery are about 7 years old, and the battery clearly is old and worn out. I did this for 3 days, and on day 4, the empty battery page disappeared and Kindle started! I couldn't believe it, seems like these small loads reborn my kindle. The light didn't turn on immediately after I plugged it in, it took like a minute to do so. Each time I did that, the light stayed on longer. I when the charging light turned off, I unplugged it, hold the power slide for some time, and plugged it again. I used a fast charger (5V, 2A), and the orange light turned on. I tried holding the switch in the on position for 15 seconds several times but had no luck, it wasn't charging at all. I didn't use my Kindle 3 for over a year and it didn't seem to charge when I plugged it in for several hours. I ove the buttons and do not need it waterproofed. Come on Amazon, bring out the amazon kindle keyboard with a couple of improvements - removeable external micro sd card to add 64gb of memory. Remembeer you are covered by your original purchase agreement!. Best beause you do not have to pay over £100 just to get rid of the ads!!!! Best because you do not have to use a bluetooth head set that can ultimately cause damage to your brain. best for battery life,because you can use head phones to play music/ it has in built speakers for audio books, best as you can use it tostore documents that are not kindle books. In my view the original kindle keyboard is the best. I have seen and read the feedback on the newer kindles. I also replaced the battery but this was not the issue. a little air blowing to get rid of the dust and particulates, then manually switching the microswitch to clear it and hey presto it is working again. another post explained that there is a micro switch.
