Sorry if this is not the same issue for your model.

I have a 314 thatmust be 4/5 tears old, I just keep it in a drawer as a
spare, and always forget to keep it charged, so the battery does go quite
flat. After a few minutes using the mains charger, it starts up and works
fine. Just done it again 5 mins ago, after it has not been touched for
several weeks.. As has been said you MUST use the original charger and
cable. If not, the light will come on, but it is not charging. It can be a
good idea to pack the small press switch next to the battery, with a very
small bit of tape, they have been known to not make contact when the lid is
put on.
Having said that, the reason it is in the drawer is a V2, which has a much,
much, better sunlight readable screen.
