Hallo everyone,
I have a motorola Xoom wifi (mz604 i guess)... Once (almost 1 year ago) i installed the touch recovery and a ICS stock rooted rom.
It worked always fine.... today I went to check my email, and the xoom was off and i couldn't turn it on... I thought it was the battery, but when the battery is empty, when you try to turn the xoom on you see a red blinking led on the top (next to the front camera)...
But i put the xoom to charge, (the white led on the bottom went on) and when i came back home the led was green.
I tried to turn the xoom on, but surprise, nothing, no reaction, then y plugged the charger once again, and the bottom led went green, but i still can't turn the tablet on.
I tried all keys combinations that are possible.... Power + Volume up, Power + Volume down, Power + Volume Up and Down, Just volume down, Just volume Up, both volume keys...
Then i tried to connect the xoom to the PC, and also no reaction, nothing in the Device Manager.... (i have Windows 8)
Someone have an idea to solve this problem? Or is my tablet really dead?
Thank you very much.

Might sound a bit basic, but when you did the key combinations, did you hold the buttons down for 5-10 seconds? I think power plus volume up is reset button.

Hi Luinwethion,
My Xoom is in the same state you described. It happened this morning. There is a white light while charging and a green light after some time. I didn't get any response, with any keys combination.
Have you fixed yours?
Can you send me any tip to bring it to live again?
Thanks in advance.

Take the back cover off, on the bottom side of battery there are two wires-black&red- take them off the socket for 10minutes, when you connect it back again xoom should work!
Quick q: do you hear that click sound when pressing power button?
I have the same problem , my xoom went off without doing anything and it doesn't boot up!
does the disconnecting battery fix the problem ?
What rom you;

I'm in the same boat - the Xoom (USA WiFi) hung up while playing music - I rebooted it (power+up volume) it recovered, but then all the apps started crashing - I rebooted it again and it did not boot - just a blank screen. Battery light shows a charge when connected to a charger.
Does someone have instructions on how to remove the back cover?

It looks like the latest Google Play Services updated has dropped support for our Xoom's
Mine loads, then more GAPPS errors thank you can shake a stick it - if i let the screen time out following a forced reboot it doesnt come back on.
Gutted.
Hey guys, I have a problem with my TF700
First of all my TF700 is rooted, but I didn't change the ROM or any of those advanced stuff.
My TF700 has a black screen problem...When I hit the power button the screen comes on but its black...as in the light is on but its a dim black light, you can't see anything but I can tell the tablet is on. When I press the power button again the dim light comes off.
When I try pressing the power button and the volume down button or any of those combinations the tablet just vibrates and turns off and the dim light comes back on with no display. I don't see any of the things that usually comes on when you press those combinations in order to cold boot the device.
When I plug in the charger, the charger light is green indicating that it is fully charged.
When I plug it in to my computer it says installation of driver failed, and it says no APX driver found.
Can someone help me please?
Get a proper HDMI cable and connect it to your TV's HDMI port and see if that will at least let you see what's going on.
Hi guys,
some days ago I found that I couldn't turn my tf300t on. I thought the battery was low, but even after charging it for an entire night (the led on the power/lock button changed colour from orange to green, so it should be charged), if I press the power button nothing happens (black screen, no sound, dead!)
I tried to:
1) press the reset pin;
2) hold the power button pressed for more than 30 seconds;
3) remove the back cover and checked if the battery was correctly plugged in (everything seems at the proper place).
Is the tablet definitely dead or could I try something else?
Any suggestion is very appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
bye.
Hello,
Recently, my phone and I took a splash in a pool. I've never replaced a digitizer before, but since everything was still functioning perfectly fine except the screen, I ordered a Digitizer/LCD. Just finished installing and pieced everything together except the outer shell. Went to boot up, but nothing. I had a full battery before I disassembled it, but figured maybe I didn't connect the battery correctly. I hooked it to the charger and immediately got the "Alcatel One Touch 3 - Powered by Android" splash screen. Then it went to the battery charge icon, (the same that appears when the phone is charging by not on). Tried holding the power button again, but no response. Unplugged/plugged several times and even pulled the plug at the splash screen. Nothing.
I'm pretty certain everything is seated correctly, but does this point to one specific thing I didn't do correctly? Any help is very much appreciated. I've come this far and see the light but so disheartened.
Hello,
Just wanted to update: It's the Power Button. I was able to connect to the charger via a power strip, flipped the switch and jerry-rigged so I could toggle the volume buttons. Currently, the phone is in Android Recovery mode. I can scroll with the volume buttons, but I cannot select (the default language right now), because the Power Button isn't responding.
Anything I can do?
Edit: Looks like I may have snapped the power button ribbon
I have a 2nd Gen Moto G that was pretty much in mint condition & prior to yesterday it showed no signs of any potential problems. Then last night the screen completely froze & wouldn't allow any input. The phone then shut itself off & I figured it would just restart & be fine. Instead it went into a constant boot loop where it reaches the white "M" animation screen then shuts right back down. I played around with it for a few hours today & did a ton of searching on the internet with no results.
I also should state that the battery did not die when this happened. I mention that because there were some posts where people let their battery go completely dead then they couldn't get their Moto G to power back on, however that was not case for me as the battery had well over 50% charge when this happened.
Things I have tried in order to fix this:
Using a different charger (both wall and USB to the computer).
-Holding down the power button for 7-10 seconds while plugged in.
-Holding down the power button for 7-10 seconds while not plugged in.
-Holding down the power button for 2 minutes or more (while plugged in and while not plugged in).
-Holding down the power button and volume up buttons until the phone starts (while plugged in and while not plugged in).
-Holding down the power and volume down buttons for 2 minutes or more (while plugged in and while not plugged in).
Now this step does bring up the fastboot menu however selecting any option in this menu just causes the phone to back into the boot loop. And yes I know how to access options in this menu (down volume to scroll & up volume or power button to select).
So basically everything just sends the phone into boot loop. Is the phone toast? Also I should mention that all day today it would randomly try to start itself & get to the Moto animation screen & then shut down & that was while it was sitting on the desk & I hadn't even touched it.
If the phone is toast is there any way I can access files like pictures by plugging the phone into my computer while the fastboot screen is up?
Alright so seeing as no one has any suggestions (understandably) & based on the searching I've done I'm assuming that the phone is just DOA. However does anyone know a possible answer to my second question which is, if the phone is un-savable is there still any way I can access files like pictures by plugging the phone into my computer while the fastboot screen is up?
