Unresponsive tablet screen - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I returned home from holiday the other day to my TF101 and I can't turn it on. The keyboard charges no problem, but I'm not sure what the problem is with the screen. The power button is unresponsive, and I'm not sure if it charges when it's plugged in.
Any suggestions? Our shall I send it Asus for repair?
It is not rooted, and had the official ics update.

I am having the same issue just today. Tried hard reset and holding power down for 30+ secs. Also tried with the micro sd out.
Some advice would be great.

I'll try the hard reboot when I get in from work.

Ok,
So my tablet is definatley running. It's just that the screen won't turn on. I am able to pull it apart, is there anything I should look for or had the screen just given up the ghost.
Weird thing is the actual touch is working as I can hear it unlock to say the camera but just black screen. I have gone to a dark room to see if there is any back light but no go. It's as if it was turned off.
Bit over it.

I spoke with Asus UK support today, they said they have had a few dodgy screens before. Have arranged for then to repair it under manufacture warranty. They picking it up tomorrow.
I'll update you on the outcome

Broken Power Button

So my power button is broken. It was press. My phone ran out of battery. Is it possible to turn it back on? Any help would be appreciated immensely.
Nope
Same thing happened to me and I had to send the phone back to tmobile for a new one. I think that it is a defect in the design and placement of the power button.
i would but unfortunetly I bought it from someone and it isnt under warranty anymore
Call HTC or get a friend to do it for you.

Plug in to the charger and it should boot up, or plug into adb and type adb reboot

i plugged it into comp tried adb reboot but it isnt detected by adb. I plauged into charger but wont turn on. im on stock rom right now.
I think...
You're supposed to remove battery and try to power up with bootloader/adb?

If you get it to turn on you can pm me and I will link the apk file to allow remapping.but you still won't be able to turn your phone on so u have to keep it charged and on.
I am positive I read somewhere how to turn it on via USB/ad w/out battery in.search about not having battery.you might get lucky.

[Q] htc sensation wont turn on

Can someone please help me? My htc sensation was working fine and all of a sudden it started freezing, so I took out the battery and put it back in. Now it won't turn on or boot into Hboot. The battery is fully charged and I even tried a different battery but still nothing. I've plugged in the phone without the battery as well and still nothing, the screen does not come on at all. Does anyone have a solution?

Hi,
I saw someone with the same problem.
He removed his sim card,left it for a while ,then switched on the phone without the sim card.
Might be worth a try.
Tried it, still no luck any other solutions?

Are you able to get a PC to recognise the phone via USB i.e. is adb working?
It sounds like a screen issue, it may be booting under this.

Can someone please help, i would just call for a replacement but i dnt want to send it in and they fix it and see its rooted, and then they charge me

Hopefully its so fubar thats they cant check to see, or waste their time...
I had it on mine to, on the period that it wasnt rooted yet, just send it to HTC, its a factory defect, they can't blame it on root access.

this happened to me too for some reason too, when i try to turn it on it just vibrates every 40 seconds or so with a blank screen . i am running ordroids latest rom. oh and my theory is i short circuited the battery or something because when my phone was charging i yanked the power cord of the wall with the phone still plugged in , any ideas and/or soulutions to my problem ?
The same happened to me a few months ago and had to get it replaced with T-Mobile.

can you return it with manufacturers warranty to tmobile or is there another warranty you need
Have you tried another battery before you return it? Could be a bad battery?

Hey man saw your issue...
This happened to me about 3 months ago. I was watching a youtube video when suddenly my phone froze. I did the exact same thing. Pulled the battery, waited a few mins, popped it back in and nothing. If you have insurance on the device you can get it replaced. They completely replaced mine and it was s-off rooted! So you should have no problems at all!:good:
Mine has done that a couple of times. All I do is wait about 5 minutes then pull the battery, put it back in and then try to restart the phone. Sometimes it take 5 or 6 tries before it will reboot and even then sometimes all I get it the splash screen. Another hint is to have it plugged into the charger after you have put the battery back in. If the charging led is on then that means there is a very good chance the phone will boot

P6210 power/boot loop

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIxqzRQ8dqU&feature=youtube_gdata_player
So I have a weird issue with my buddies p6210, it won't boot as shown in the video. It won't boot at all without being hooked up to the charger. When it is hooked up to the charger it does what it is doing in the video, I only hit the button once it was hard to hit because I have the back off. Also when going into recovery I was holding the volume button the whole time. I've also let it sit for about 30 min with the battery disconnected. Any ideas?

I think If it still with warranty you better take the shot. It does look like hardware fault. It could be a defective cable or charger but it is not very likely.

That's what I was thinking, looks like we will be RMAing. Thanks for the input.

[Q] Power Button hard to press

For the last year or so my lock button has gotten harder to press and doesn't have that "click" feel to it. Does anybody know why this is or how to fix it?
EDIT: my power button stopped working all together. If anybody knows how to fix this or turn my phone on without adb(to switch batteries), it would be greatly appreciated.

take off you back cover and see if the plastic button got somehow trim
try also to press the power button with a toothpick or with your finger
to check if you have the same hard pressing
I have 2 back covers and both of them seem fine. How can you tell if they got trim? I used my finger and a sharp object, they both turn it on but it feels the same

hmm, i don't know what else to suggest
did the device ever fell from your hands and hit in that spot?
if yes maybe it can cause that issue
well i tried to clean out the dust with a can of air and it blew out this little film thing and now it doesnt work at all hahaha but i got the device set up to use the vol up button as a power button but it is only recognized when it is powered on. does anybody know how to boot the device without adb? im currently using adb to start but its a pain to have a computer around to start the phone. i switch batteries a lot so its really inconvenient. btw i noticed that the phone doesnt turn off if you remove the battery in bootloader if it has a usb cable plugged in but i cant select any of the options without a power button
Bump

[Q] HELP! Shield Not Booting!

Yet another issue with my shield but this I can't figure out. I was gaming through hdmi and after i was done i closed the lid and opened it, it would not boot. It WILL charge, the nvidia logo pulses and thats it. Computer doesn't detect it. Still no idea. It is rooted but was done properly and was done awhile ago. Is there anything to do to hard reset or boot the bootloader or anyway to boot like on android phones? Please help! (I will keep updated) Edit 1: hooked back up to tv, it detects signal but it's a black screen.
Hold the power button for 15 seconds. That will hard power it down...
