Nook HD Plus won't charge. Can the charging port be repaired/replaced?

Nook was dropped while charging and charging insert was bent slightly. Nook would take charge only using PC for a short time then not at all. I'm thinking the port may have been compromised as well.

    Hi Brandy, I am on my third charger, BandN knew about this problem in 2012. The easy answer is to upgrade the tablet. The not so easy answer is to splice the wires with a some connectors, an electrician can do this for you.. Let me know if you need further assistance.

Wont turn on

Reboot by holding power button and pressing start button. Check to make sure Nook is charging. Cord that plugs into Nook may be loose in port. Try wiggling and pressing power button at same time.

Nook HD will not charge or turn on

It may be your cable, I jsut had to replace mine and I had it under a year, the Nook is known to have troubles with the cable. See if your Nook is still under warranty and call customer service, if not, you may have to buy a new one.

My nook will not turn on

Without further explanation, pictures or details of what you tried, it's hard to tell what exactly is wrong with your Nook. However, assuming that the battery is still good you will need to "reboot" your Nook.


Unlike other tablets, there is no reset button, but you can try this.


While pressing the Nook button (upside down u on the front of the tablet), press the power button on the side. You will need to hold it for couple of seconds.

My NOOK HD doesn't want to charge. What do you think the problem is...just the cable or something else. Thanks in advance for your help with this problem.

Cord that plugs into Nook may be loose in port and not making a good connection. You may even want to try a different USB cord.
