Geez me too- I didn’t t drop mine. But I used a generic charging cord- this is the second speaker I’ve gone through. Idk if it makes any sense but it seems that as soon as I use a different charger the speaker starts to crackle and make a funny buzzing. The second one seemed to do ok for a while and then poof- I can’t get it to make a sound. Turns on and connects to my Bluetooth but doesn’t make a peep
