Title: Nexus 7 wont charge or turn on
Post by: FrankieLou98 on March 22, 2014, 03:59:52 AM

hi, Ive had a nexus 7 for about 9 months now and recently came into some problems with it. I was using it like normal (the battery was on about 13%) when I had to leave the room for a while when I returned the tablet was dead, so I plugged it in and left it, returning about an hour later to see that the tablet hadn't charged at all and was not turning on or getting the little charging symbol. I then later saw in the help booklet that your not supposed to leave the tablet on charge when its reached 100%!


So here's my question, can I just buy a new battery and put it in my current tablet, and would it start working again???  ??? ??? ???

First eliminate your charger as a problem. If you don't have another charger, plug your Nexus 7 into a USB port on your computer, and although it will charge slowly, it will identify your charger as a problem, if it exists.
