I charged my new Ipod 5th gen for at least 6 hours, and there is still a little gap of space to the right of the green battery symbol?

Okay i think i'll try those, but i have let it die completely before charging it again. And i just want to mention as well that after charging it for so long, i used it in bed for like an hour before going to sleep. Just listening to music and using a messenger app, then i locked it and went to bed, woke up and then checked the ipod, the battery was on red. I've checked the settings and everything is the same as my ipod 4 and my ipod 4 has never done that

Yeah i restored it and everything, charged it for at least 5 hours and the gap is still there, i think im gunna have to send it back and get a new one

I didnt buy this Ipod off apple, i got it from littlewoods since i have to pay for it monthly

Okay so it is covered by the apple warranty, will i have to make an oppointment online or could i just go in and get it checked there and then?

I've found something interesting out, i plugged my ipod into the xbox to charge it through that because i got off the computer, so i decided to see if the green battery symbol would change if i plugged it in there. So i plugged it in and there was no change, so randomly i decided to unplug the cable from the ipod and turn it around and plug it in the other way, and when i did that the symbol changed to a fully charged one this time, so i unplugged it, switched the cable around to the way i had it and plugged it in again the same way i had it before and it still had the fully charged battery symbol, so i let it charge on that for a good few hours. And then i turned my xbox off and then on again (i forgot to do something on it) and i noticed there was a gap again, so i unplugged the cable from the ipod and plugged it in again and it changed to the fully charged symbol and stayed like that while i unplugged it and plugged it in again a few times . It seems like i would have to plug it in, unplug it and then plug it back in to get that fully charged symbol? Im gunna have to test this out for the next few days and see if the ipod battery isnt on red when i wake in the morning

Oh no not the USB part of the cable, the part that actually plugs into the ipod, ir can plug in both ways it seems

Yeah, but i think there is a hardware problem with the ipod, ill leave it in tonight and if the battery had depleted when i get in, there is definitely something wrong because it shouldn't budge unless i use it
