Thu, 02 Apr 2020 22:39:23 -0700

I have an Android Tablet from Verizon it was working fine all day had at least 80% left on the battery but when I went to go into my game as usual it just froze wouldn't let me touch anything nor would it do anything. Then after I just set it down it went black and wont turn on ever since. I've tried the power button and volume button trick but it didn't work.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0: Why won't apps download on my device?

Thu, 17 Mar 2022 16:16:35 -0700

Ever since yesterday I haven't been able to download anything from the app store, anything I try to download will freeze at anywhere from 80%-96% and then just stops. I have no idea why. My only guess is there's a problem with the device and I need to reset it to factory defaults.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 3: My tablet does not recognise my password. HELP!

Mon, 19 Oct 2020 23:36:00 -0700

Over night my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 (SMT310) has "forgotten" and doesn't recognise my password. I haven't changed it recently so that shouldn't be the problem but I'm now stuck and cant unlock it. If possible I'd like to be able to unlock it without having to do a 'hard reset' or 'factory reset' as I don't want to lose the pictures, videos and documents that are on there. is there anything I can do and can anyone please help. Thank you.

Asus Transformer Pad TF300: Replaced screen and digitizer, but touch doesn't work

Fri, 17 Aug 2018 16:03:44 -0700

My son's Asus T300 had a cracked screen and wasn't responding well to touch. So I purchased the replacement parts. I replaced the parts. I put the think ribbon back the one next to it with the tiny wires connected. But touch doesn't seem to work.

is there anything else I can try? Is there a software thing I have to do in order to get it to recognize the new hardware?

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1: Why is my tablet not charging?

Tue, 03 Aug 2021 14:48:26 -0700

Couple weeks ago my galaxy tab 10.1's power is 1%, then i shut it down. After that i charged my tab and left it a couple of minutes, but when i see the charging bar it dosent gain power. it keeps going back n fort for hours but still it didnt fill up to the middle. After that this happend link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fW48hGB7...

But i solved it by pressing hold the power button in 1 min(30 sec, plug in charger,30sec release power button.)

you can see that procedure on the video's comments.

P.S

pls find a way because im so desperate. I cant afford to fix or buy another battery. My parents are strict

Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1: held power and volume button now downloading something/frozen

Sat, 15 Jun 2024 12:00:47 -0700

My son tried to turn his tablet on but held the volume key at same time as power button, a message came up saying if you proceed it will download something so my husband tried to cancel or go back but the only button that would respond to being pressed was the volume key and now the tablet is frozen on a screen with the Android pic and writing in top left corner showing product: GT-P5210, current binary: samsung official and system status: Official

under the Android pic in middle of screen it says downloading do not turn off target.... but has been stuck like this for over an hour with no change.

Samsung support was useless to talk too.
