Tablet wont turn on

Hi
I have a Mediacom 910 tablet that i flashed with a CM9 rom.
Worked fine for weeks, i turned the screen off to go to sleep one evening and the next day it would not turn on.
Put it on the charger and waited several hours.
Now when i press the power button all i get is a white battery icon in the middle of the screen. Inside the battery is an orange triangle with an exclamation mark inside.
What can i do to revive this unit...It must have charged the battery because now it will turn on like i mention above without the charger inserted.
I also measured that the charger is giving out 5 volts and the same thing happens when i plug in the micro usb cable to charge with that.
Anyone have any ideas what to do (Besides throw it away )

I've the same problem. I've opened the device to check if the battery link was ok. Any suggestion?

[Q] Battery Issue

Hi All,
Since yesterday my SGR seems to be having weird battery issue, when i plug it in for charging it does not seem to charge, when i do it via USB cable it charges for a while & then the battery icon starts blinking (& charging stops) & it won't stop until i restart my phone.
if i shutdown the phone & allow it to charge via usb it charges fine.
The phone wasn't charging @ all few weeks back so i had the socket changed (it's out of warranty) it worked fine for couple of days & then this problem has started. i tried goggling the same but no luck. Any idea ? My charger works fine with other phones so i knw it;s not my charger also tried other chargers. :crying:
ur help is much appreciated...

Since it's only been a few weeks I suggest you show it to the ssc from where you got the charging port repaired.. It definitely seems like a hardware issue..
Also type *#*#4636#*#* in the dialpad... It should open up a diagnostics page which will show battery stats...
It's either a faulty port(or internal connection) or something wrong with the battery
From my CM10.1 powered galaxy R

I think you must check both of your Charger(already checked) & Battery to other Phone(related to it)
If both are working fine for you in other Mobile then do visit SSC & ask them to repair at free of cost coz if they say NO then threat them for Consumer complaint. Hope they will say YES for you..:fingers-crossed:

That is the problem my friend, i dnt have any friends around me with the same phone to swap the battery & check if the problem is with my phone or battery. i suppose i'm gonna have to take it to SSC this weekend. i hope i get a good techy there to identify & resolve my issue

I am having quite a big problem here and really need your help. I have P6200 was working properly and now seems dead. All I can do is get into Odin Mode for OS downloading (?) with Power an Volume Down combination.
The power and volume up do nothing and if I connect it to a usb it does nothing.

any ideas ?

Having the same problem here.
Tried to charge the battery seems that the charging indicator is not moving.
Is the battery dead?
Any info on this.
Thanks

This worked for me hope it helps
This would be the 2nd time this happened to me and this seems to do with cold and humid weather 50 °F 10°C max (1 April 2013 and 15 June 2014)
My Battery seemed dead charge bar seems stuck stayed at 38% with charger plugged in
Step 1"Quick fix" (please take this Quick with a bag of salt) you need to plug it into a PC or the tab charger plugged in half way and slow charge it while turned OFF (got me from 38% to 82%) in a few hours (48 +/- )but hey it was enough to back everything up just in case i need to send it in to Samsung for replacement battery
Step 2 Use the original charger that came with it and mine started charging no problem at all
A tech at Samsung South Africa said the battery might be drained to far (my tab was exposed to extreme cold so i blamed the cold for the drain)and this is a "SAFETY FEATURE" that gets canceled as soon as the battery recovers to a usable state and should start charging again normally
Suggestions
Clean contacts carefully with toothpick & a tiny soft pain
Only Plug charging cable in half way and leave it for a day or 2
Try a stronger charger
Try any car charger while driving to work or somewhere
Just leave it on charge and tell yourself your reconditioning the battery
I wish your tabs a speedy recovery...

What do you mean by plugging the tablet's charger in half-way?

How to Plug a charger cable in the corret Halfassed way

You plug the charger cable into the tablet but not all the way in, if you plug it in slow-motion style you will feel the 2 hooks click into the tab STOP at this point , you will see it can still go in +/- 1.5 mm depending on if cable is original or not this is what you want.
Basically I'm asking you to do the task halfassed plug it in "like that it's kind of in there" --- This is my preferred way.---
generic cables are normally bigger and much harder it get in some plug in almost sea-saw style one side all the way in other side not in yet a.k.a it's in skew.
I have also seen it work if you plug the USB end in half way +/- (where is half way? on the bottom of the USB you will see the 2 squares the moment they aren't visible your half way)
You can try one of the 2 or both if it never starts check cable/charger.
i took a picture of both ways in one you will see the lightning bolt that it is really charging

[Q]HTC One M8 Battery Not Communicating/Exclamation Point Icon

Hello Everyone,
So I am in a bit of a dilemma, I am fixing a screen on my HTC One M8, I thought I had the phone fixed and ready to go, everything worked perfectly except when I plugged in the phone to a charger on the screen the phone said charging however in the upper screen where the battery icon is there was an exclamation point over the battery logo. So I used the phone normally (again everything was perfect) until the phone naturally died. So I thought I would try again, I plugged it into a charger and the phone blinked on and showed the battery at 0%, the orange charging light came on, everything seemed normal. However about 5 seconds later the orange light started blinking and the 0% battery logo was replaced by a battery with an exclamation point over it. I took the phone apart again and made sure everything was connected properly. I am just wracking my brain because the battery was fine previously, and obviously the charging port was working (because the phone was turning on and recognizing that it had been connected to a charger) and the phone worked fine and discharged at a normal rate after fixing it. However I cannot get the battery to recognize that it is being connected to a power supply and charge up it seems. I just do not get it, any insight to this issue would be much appreciated! Thank you all!

Probably not what you want to hear but it probably needs opened back up. Sounds like part of the battery connection is loose or severed.

Hello, thanks for the reply. I actually have it apart now, and there is only one place where the battery connects to the phone, and since the battery was working (the phone was powered on) I assume it was connected properly however I do not know for sure. This is really annoying!

Same thing for me
I had my screen replaced by UbreakIfix and had a terrible experience, so bad that they refused to fix my phone when the screen broke again. I replaced my screen and the phone works and recognizes when the charger is plugged in but I have the same issues. Gray battery icon with exclamation and a flashing orange LED when plugged in. The charge has shown 27% and 33% but it won't charge. I tried wipe partition cache, factory reset, battery Calibration app, and the battery data wipe (holding power,volume up/down for 2 minutes) Whats left? I'm on a Verizon M8 running lollipop 5.0.1

just remove sim card and memory card phone is started and well worked

Same issue. Battery not charging . Phone is dead
Removed sim & memory card. Tried charging without
It. Phone is still dead.

Nokia 3 have a very good ,new battery protection ! How it works: When you put the phone to charger and You still use the phone,the temperature of the battery is increasing and the sensor trigged the protection.From this moment the battery will not be charged UNTIL THE TEMPERATURE BECOME NORMAL ! After that the charging process continue to 100%.
It's a very SMART Phone !
I hope I helped you!Cheers!
