[ background story ]
I avoided buying the Prime since I've heard a lot of complaints about WiFi connectivity issues.
However it seems like I still couldn't avoid another problem: charging issues. Twice, and I've had the Transformer for 3 weeks now. Sigh!
My tablet seems to work fine and the usb cable as well (works when plugged into the PC).
I did notice that the "head" of the usb cable looked a bit crooked when plugged in my tablet... and a bit flimsy? It wobbles around if pushed gently.
Also, I tried pushing/spreading the the pin connectors inside the Adaptor and it worked once (yay).
Unfortunately... the charger isn't working again. Spreading the pins didn't work this time. I now have my Adaptor in my freezer and I hope that'll fix it.
TL;DR
Charger isn't working.
Looking for...
Thanks for reading!
-- Update --
Freezing the adaptor worked.
Geez... Wonder when my adaptor will break down again.
