My Samsung tablet will not turn on. The battery is fully charged. I have tried doing a reset (start + volumne) but this does not work.
I was using it then closed it to do a job then when I came back to it, it wont turn on. Its about 2 years old.

Press and hold the home button while plugging in charger and quickly press volume up and power button

THIS, my friends, was the answer. Thank you so much.

I had this problem too. You have to hold the reset buttons (lock & volume up) for longer than you would think. Hold the reset buttons until it turns on. I'd say it takes at least 10 long seconds. That worked for me, hope it works for you too.

If you hold the power button and volume up button it was factory reset but if u hold the power and volume down buttons it will only do a hard reset just did that and it works perfect now would rather try that way first so you don't loose all your save stuff

Very easy fix because this is how it got to that condition in the first place (generally speaking) : 3 buttons hold at once for over 3 seconds: Power, Volume Down, Home! Then it will ask you if you want to continue to start normally, hit volume down to answer the question. Worked great for me!

The VOLUME DOWN with the start/"n" button worked for me.

Switch off your tablet. Then press Start + Volume + Home button at the same time.
choose reboot option after rebooting update your OS.
try that but you will lose your data in your tablet.

No luck for me. It seems to have just died.

THIS IS THE ONLY THING THAT WORKED !!!!
I hadn't used my tablet in a couple of months and it wouldn't turn on no matter what combination of buttons. So, I tried pressing the home button while plugging in the tablet and pressing and holding the volume up and power buttons. The tablet powered up after about 30 seconds and I selected the option to restart the phone. All good now.l

Just a build on my last post

Just a build: Even though I had plugged in the tablet to charge it overnight, it would not start. When I followed the process above and the tablet powered on, it the battery was dead so something prevented the tablet from charging when it's battery was 100% dead (hadn't powered on in a couple of months). Now the battery is charging and the tablet seems to be working great !
