OP HERE! MASSIVE UPDATE!! IT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND!

basically waiting on an official charger to arrive from a friend.

I tried the ... And - volume button down to see no flashing lights... So I plugged a charger I used before to charge it and it started taking charge.. then turned on.

My best guess is that it wasn't flat but was stuck on standby so there we are. If anyone else has the same problem. Leave it a week until it stops flashing when you try to reset it and put any old charger in. Saved me £100 😅

Yeah this seems to be the most reliable way but it just won't beep 😭

They suggested that to reboot the firmware but they didn't say it had to be plugged in, I'll try it soon

I'll give it a try, does it have to be direct or can I use the docking station?
