Just Bought a Live View

[Guest phil8715]

My Live View arrived today and I tried to switch it on and it wouldn't switch on, I thought the battery is probably flat so I put it on charge, I couldn't use the supplied charger as it was a European 2 pin charger and I live in the UK and use 3 pin plugs.

I left it for the 2 hours as the manual told me to, but the led was still red. I decided to try and use the charger that came with it using a shaver adapter, but that didn't do the trick either. I also performed a firmware upgrade but didn't seem to make any difference.

Then I unplugged it will wouldn't switch on. It would only switch on when the charger was plugged on.

The display when the device is switched on shows that the battery is charging, but it seems its not holding a charge.

Is the left button supposed to do anything it seems it can't be pressed.

Apart from sending it back to Amazon is there anything else I can do?

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy Note N7000 to pair with, which pairs quite well.
