Just got my Mongoose 26" Vanish about a week ago.
Fix it. Flats are a fact of life. Learn to deal with them. carry a pump, a tube and a patch kit.

Google "fix flat tire bike" for how-to's. Always try to determine the cause of the flat prior to removing the tube or you may just get another one.

This happened to me too, you have to take your phone back to who you bought it from so they can repair it. Its the chip inside the phone that is bad. Not the charger.
