My 10.1 tablet won't turn on even tried a hard reset

My tablet was on and went off. Now it won't come on. I did a hard reset but that did nothing

Is it not powering on or just not going all the way through to the main screens? You can't do a "Hard Reset" or any other option like that if it won't power on. Such changes require power. If the problem is it won't power on, try this...


1. Remove the battery.
2. Press and hold the "Power" button for 20 seconds.
3. Now put the battery back in.
4. Plug it in to charge and allow it to fully charge before turning it on.

If this doesn't help, then test the charger cord to see if it is good. Either try your cord in another device, or try another devices cord on your device.

Should that not be the problem, then check the battery to see if it needs replacing.

NOTE: Yes, I know tablet batteries are not so easy to get to, on some devices. In such a case, make sure that your tablet is not under warranty still before you try opening it up yourself. If it is under warranty, then contact the manufacturer first.
