Nexus 7 won't turn on
Gemma123
02-08-2013
Was just wondering if anyone would be able to help me. The battery of my Nexus died earlier and I put it on charge straight away. Normally, I leave it for about 5/10 minutes and then can switch it on. It has been on charge now for about 3 hours and it still wont switch on. The screen is very warm.

Anyone any ideas what's up with it or how I could fix it? Feel like I'm missing a limb I haven't had any problems with it before and it was working perfectly fine before the battery died.


Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Seems common happened to mine and I sent it back, if you google it there are a few suggestions of things to try such as holding power button in for 30 secs, turning on while holding sound key down.

None worked for me sorry you may have better luck.

Thanks for the quick reply. I have tried both of those suggestions and neither have worked. Will give it another try. I hope I don't have to send it away, I rely on it so much. Thanks again.

It handles a flat battery very badly. But I've never known one that couldn't be fixed with the official advice.

Just to update. Tried switching it on again and held the button in for about 10 seconds and it came on! Panic over!
