[Q] My TF don´t turn on or even turn the light on when I plug it

Yesterday I was using the Tf when my batery level go down so I plug it to the wall charger, A couple of hours later I tried to turn on the device but nothing happened even any light was on. Till that I can´t switch on my tablet.
Please help
Was the charging light on the tablet on when you plugged it to the charger? What color was the LED? Trying to determine if it was charging.
When I plugged it everything was normal a batery came up in the lcd but after a few hours when I tried to use the tablet allso the screen and the led were down

I try everything press the power boton for 30 seconds, volume down... etc all I read. But one strange thing is that if I connect the usb cable first to my laptop and then to the tablet my laptop restart without reasson.
Are the pins on the power cable or the tablet bent or broken? Maybe try to turn on the tablet when it's plugged into the power cable? Also, you can try to let it sit for 24hours (maybe longer) to see if whatever power is left in the battery completely dies. Then try plugging it in again to power cable and hit power button to see if it powers up.

Cable and pins are ok... I had try to turn on when is pluged... so i´ll do what you mention. Then I will tell you what happen.
Thanks for your help.
You tried to charge it via the USB cable and your laptop? I do not believe your laptop's battery can deliver enough juice to actually charge the 700, so then it wouldn't surprise me the 700's battery is as dead as a dodo. Try the wall charger instead.

It is also possible the wall charger failed. I had this happen when mine was a month old. I could only charge off of my usb 3 on the back of my big pc until I was able to get another.

The problem is that when I pluged it to the wall charger the power light doesn´t turn on. the same happend when I try to charge via USB. I just don´t know what to do.
Thanks
If none of that worked, I would say to call ASUS for a possible hardware RMA.

[Q] Problem with charger

Hello,
I didn't use my tablet since 2 month and last week, i installed team EOS 4.2.2 JB rom.
After, my cable did'nt worked, When i tried to conect it to my computer, there was an error message that the tablet wasn't detect correctly.
And when i put the cable into the charger and the table to charge on the wall, i saw the icon on the right corner of the tablet charging but in the information battery, i sax that "Disconect" and the tablet % didn't grow up.... So i thought the cable was dead and i bouth one new on ebay.
With the new cable, no problem the tablet was detect and the charging with the charger was good. But after 2 days, i had new problems.
when i conect the tablet on my laptop, all is OK, the tablet is detect normally. But whn i try to charging with the charger on the wall, the tablet doesn't charge. I see the icon in the right corner is charging but in the battery informations, i see "disconect" again and the battery doesn't charge.
Yesterday, i saw a topic that i can put the charger on the freezer, i put it alle the night and i tried this morning but nothing the tablet does'nt charge.
On the charger, there is 2 parts, I open the little part with removing a screw and i tried to little move the 2 metal parts but nothing alwas the same problem.
So i think now the problem is not the new cable but the charger.... I know it's a specific voltage and if i try with my HTC ONE X charger, this will not work...
But maybe it's a problem with the tablet connect port?
I changed the rom and i installed the Cyanogen 4.2.2 this morning, and now when i conect the cable, with the computer, it's OK i see my tablet but the icon on the table isn't charging and i see "disconect in the battery information". And with the charger wall, it's the same, i have charge icon and i have disconect in the battery information
Do you think i must buy a new charger?
Sorry for my poor English my French
Try a trickle charge from the USB PC > Tablet
Plug the tablet cable into PC USB port and turn off the screen, then leave to trickle charge overnight
If you have the screen on it will not charge, so best to leave it off for a few hours to test if it is a charger problem

When you use PC USB to charge, it will not show charging on the screen, you have to leave it overnight for best test results
The freezer trick should only be used for about 20 minutes just to cool the charger down and reset the cutout
Try trickle charge overnight, if it works, its the charger
I think this is because tablet use a lot of power when in use and that is why the tablet is discharging when you use it. PC has even less powerful USB charger so the tablet will probably be recharging VERY slowly or even discharging when you use it.
You should leave tablet overnight to recharge and it is better to charge it in one piece than constantly plugging and unplugging it from PC.
Have a nice day,

You should be able to charge and use it at the same time with the actual charger plugged in, but you are correct, with the PC you can not use and charge unless you mod your USB ports for extra power
Ok i will try to conect the tablet (power off) all the night to my computer but i think it will not charge...
And if it's not work, it's not a problem with the cable because i can use the cable to transfer media PC> Tablet, so it's a problem on the tablet connector?
Hello,
My tablet was charging all the night. She was at 22% and now 38.... It's very slow!!! But now, i know that my tablet and my cable are OK and my charger is the problem.
There is a solution to repair my charger or i must buy an other?

Try this, separate charger and its pins, then take it along with the cable and put it in a zip pouch, now freeze for say 2 hrs. Take it out let it return to normal temperature and then try charging. Remember freeze them in a zip pouch (air tight)

[Q] [A700] can't charge but connect to PC

Since some days I couldn't charge my tablet. The red led on the power button did not light when I plug in the charger. First I thought the port is completely broken but when I connect the tab to my pc I have the full access. My second thought was CM10.1, but I flashed the latest RC10.1.2. and it won't charge anyway. Besides I didn't read anything about such failure. Then I have tried with another charger but it also did not charge. Now I have only left 35% battery.
Is it possible that the micro-usb-port is broken for charging but not for connecting to the pc? It sounds a little bit strange to me. I just want to find out if it is hardware or software related.
Thanks for your help.

On my A510, I had a problem with the charger, by connecting via USB to my PC I was able to charge my tablet, something like 3% per hour XD
If it works for you too, that means that is might be your charger the problem (and not the tablet)

Obviously it is the charger. You are right. I have plugged in the tab with the charger of my Defy and 8! hours later it charged about 40%. So yes, it is the charger.
I will send back the tab because it is the same failure as it was with my A500. Now I will try the Xperia tablet Z.
Thanks anyway.

Power on when plugged

Hi. I was searching, but I couldn't find how to turn on the phone when a charger or data cable is connected.
Can you do this?
Thank you

Question Y700 connected using USB-C to an external display that have PD functionnality

Hi there.
So i tried to connect my Y700 to my Dell U4320Q to see how the PC mode will look like. All i got is a replica of the display on my big screen, and then it kinda turned off.
Now, it won't turn on again... Pressing the Power button for a very long time doesn't make it turn on again. No reaction at all, not even a vibration.
I maybe fried it with the Power Delivery being too strong?
I plugged the original charger, with an USB power meter, and it did charge with a decent speed. So the power section seems to be alive still.
Not sure what happened, but it's scary. Brand new expensive tablet and dead already just by plugging an external display on the USB C port?
Anyone knows how to eventually factory reset it? Or enter recovery mode?
i'm updating my own thread with an own answer.
So as said before, i plugged my Y700 to my Dell U4320Q using USB-C and this has killed the tablet.
Actually, it did not kill it, but it hanged in such a way that it was impossible to reboot it. Even long press on Power button did not help.
So i hoped that it indeed just hanged (it was still responding to adb commands, but since USB debug was not active, i couldn't do anything with it, not even an adb reboot), so i decided to try to deplete the battery by connecting it to another USB-C display that doesn't have battery or power supply (taking power only from the connected device).
This indeed depleted the battery in two days. Then when i tried to turn it on with power button, it did vibrate and show battery empty logo on screen! First sign of life since i connected to my main display.
So i just charged the battery again, and boom, tablet is back to life!
So happy now
