IPod Touch says it's charged, but it isn't! No warranty, Apple store?

Hi, So I have a pretty old itouch thats been having quite a few issues.
The charging/connector jack on my touch is slightly busted to I have to hold the chord at just the right angle this isn't a huge problem, its just inconvenient.
My main problem is that every time I connect my itouch to a wall charger or pc, my ipod will show the plug symbol on the battery showing that its at full battery, even though its at about 10%! I have to unplug it and replug it in numerous amount of times to finally get the lightning bolt sign to show up (showing that its charging.
Theres more to it though; when my itouch shows the plug icon showing that it's charged (even though it isn't), the battery will rapidly drain. Because of this, I have to keep constant watch over my ipod making sure that the plug icon wont show up. If I leave it charging over night, it will wind up dead because the lightning bolt icon will switch to the plug icon sometime during the night, and the battery will completely drain within 10 minutes (even if its at 100%!)
My warranty is a little over two years out of date, but do you think that if I took it to an apple store they could do anything?
Thanks!
Thanks.

    Does Phillips say it will work with a 4G iPod with 6.1.5?

  • Ipod Touch says I have wifi but it doesn't work

    I have wifi and usually my Ipod Touch works but just recently it has stopped working. It says I have wifi and even the little bars show up but when ever I try to pull up an app that requires wifi it says it cannot retrieve download info please connect with iTunes. I have already tried to reset the network settings and even restored it.

    How about some details about your wireless network?
    Some things you can check real fast - go to Settings > WiFi. Do you have check mark next to your network name? If you tap the blue > next to the name, what does your IP address look like (if it is 169.x.x.x you are not connected to your network)?
    Let us know and we will go from there.

  • How to fix an iPod touch that does not charge but gets hot in the lower back area?

    I have a 3rd generation iPod touch 32gb and it will not turn off, nor will it charge. Plugging in to my computer, iTunes does not even detected. Even if I leave it to charge, it does not detect it. The odd thing is that it get really hot in the lower back area of the iPod. It is hot to the touch, as though it were 80 degrees+. Anyway for me to fix this?
    The iPod is way out of warrenty, so I wonder if a Genius bar appointment will even help me. But I will give them a try.

    Replace the battery.  If that does not work, then system board is toasted...

  • My Ipod touch (4th gen) wont charge, but it will sync, and when I look at itunes the charging icon is there

    Did you try another USB port or the wall adapter, or another USB cable?
    Also see if a reset may help. To reset the iPod hold the sleep and home button for about 10 sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data doing a reset.

  • I have 2nd generation iPod Touch and i was wondering if i could go to the apple store and switch it for the iPod Touch 4th generation?

    Is there like a charge or something?

    You can't do that at Apple. Apple, however, offers a recycling service, which might give you some $$$ back.
