    Hi ,
    Just lately my Ipod had became impossible to charge without pressing the charger in and holding it together tight with my ipod. I thought it mightve been the charging cable so I bought another brand one to replace my apple cable and this new cable wont even charge my ipod so I kinda ruled out the cable.
    Does anyone know whats happening to my ipod and what I could do to fix it ?
    Thanks for the help.

    Take it to the Apple store and they will most likely replace it for you.

    Oh. Well yeah if you do take it in, be sure to unjailbreak it (restore in itunes) first :p

    Thanks , dont think i'll drive 4 hours to get it replaced probably better to contact them online. So that restore removes like all traces of the jailbrake and other apps that shouldnt be there ?

    Yeah.

    To be sure, un-poof any apps you have hidden. And take off the "battery percentage" icon indicator (if you turned it on)

    Those are the two most common things that stick. But everything else will get removed or lost all traces of being jailbroken, yeah.

    Don't forget the banner/carrier If you used MIM [MakeItMine] that'll stay too.
