Title: Nexus 7 will not come on
Post by: Linda on October 05, 2013, 07:04:05 AM

Hello Everyone, Having a problem with my tablet not coming on. Haven't even had it a year yet. It did this once before, but, now it won't come on at all. Is there anything I can do at my end besides purchasing another?  Thanks for your help

Is it charging? When the charger is plugged in there should momentarily be an icon.

Press and hold the pwr button for a long time.

Hold pwr while connecting charge cable.

Hold pwr and volume up.

Maybe one of those will work. Let us know!

If matt's suggestions produce no results, there are many instances when the battery cable jars loose. Snapping the back off your Nexus 7 and reconnecting the cable fixes it.

I think Matt has you covered . Hold the button down for over 15 seconds and she should fire up.
