Thanks Paula,

Please do a hard reboot to see if this will make your tablet boot normally.

● Make sure tab is turned off, Press and hold the Power button for about 10 seconds to turn it off.

● Press and hold the Volume Up and Power buttons at the same time

● When logo appears on the screen release the Power button and continue press the Volume Up button.

● Select Reboot system now. Use Volume Up and Volume Down to scroll up and down. Use Power button to select.

● Let your device reboot.

Thanks Paula.

Did you connect your tablet to power charger? If not, please connect charger and repeat the steps 2-3 times. Thank you.

By the way, where and when did you buy your tablet?

Customer replied 317 days and 16 hours ago.

Thanks Nick,

I have been using a USB charging cable and this was charging OK! When you asked me to connect to power, I used the actual power point charger and immediately a picture came up of the battery showing a fine red bar and over the top of the battery, a yellow triangle with a ! inside it. Does this mean in actual fact, the battery is not charged? I will keep it charging for a couple of hours and let you know if I can power it up. I will be very happy if this fixes the issue.


Kind regards


Paula

Thank you Nick, my Tablet is now fine. I feel a little embarrassed!! I will now use the full charger and not the USB cable.


I am happy with the result.
