    unfortunately that seems to be the american way now since the mom and pop businesses have went under--its all a attitude of "i have your money and i will not be giving it back".

    Usually the store will allow returns from 15-30 days.


    You might get away with doing a hard reset on it like many programmable electronics. But that entails removing the batteries for about 30 seconds since you already have a charge on them. The only way to do it on that is to removed the whole back cover to access the batteries.

    Then I would try to do an upgrade if that doesn't work. You can go here and try. You need a computer and USB cord to hook to your unit.
