If you started using it right away without getting it fully charged, it may have just run out overnight while you were sleeping.

If not, sounds like an exchange is in order. May 14, 5 I am having the same issue my battery was at 50 percent just a few hours ago and it is not turning on any.

Worked for me, Tab suddenly wouldnt come on or charge after working flawlessly since the day it came out. No clue why the above works.

Press and hold both power and volume down buttons for 5 seconds, then release vol. This should reset the tab, and it should boot normally.

I had this happen to me as well.

The natural thing to do is keep holding the power button down or keep cycling the power button. Don’t do that.

Hold the power down for 2 to 3 seconds and then wait a few seconds. It will come on. It happened to me and what I realized was that while it may have been powering up, I may foolishly powered it down.

Jul 19, 33 1 Plugged it in last night to let it charge over night. Everything was working fine as always, no problems at all.

Anyone have any advice? Aug 29, 1, Canada.

Samsung Galaxy Tab Troubleshooting – iFixit

RobDickson Android Enthusiast. Thanks for the comment about the case. I thought I was going mad when it occasionally turned itself back on.

Happened when taking off a few flights ago. Could a mod merge these two threads together?

21.01.2020 – Hopefully after these steps, your Galaxy Tab A is no longer just displaying a black screen and is starting to the Home screen. Thank you so much I thought it was dead. Remove the battery. Release the power button, wait a few seconds, and hold down the power button to turn the power back on.

Oct 28, 1 0 5. This worked for me. Thank you so much for your post. I have such bad luck with things and this is the only thing that has been working for me with no problems for the past two weeks.

I had another tab for about 2 weeks and someone broke in my house and stole it. Thank you for giving me back my Tab. Nov 6, 1 0 5.

Pressing the power button for 10 seconds worked for me. Apr 29, 3 0 5. Wow – very good information in this thread.

I have had ALL the above problems.

It turns out that mostly I’ve been holding the power button down too long. No longer do that thanks to the above, I just pressed it for 2 seconds, then waited and in 2 more seconds it booted.

Samsung should have a splash screen or a placard on the back for this! The tablet isn’t very intuitive, and over time, I’m finding that it’s excellent, but needs to be properly set up and understood.

Very important about the case though, being a software developer I don’t think about physical things and i’ve had to put the tablet in upside down into the leather case I have.

NOTHING should touch the power buttons – that will dissipate your battery each time and you will not understand why or be none the wiser – very important tip.

Graco22 Lurker. Dec 11, 1 0 5. Mine did the wont turn on thing today too I did the power and touched screen at the same time, holding down like someone stated above, and in 20 second, it powered on.

I love this tablet Lucky Android Expert. LuckyDec 11, My unit and probably many of yours out there has a power issue.

Best Buy “Fixed it” or rather took it in upgraded the firmware to fix the power issue and sent it back with the same exact problem. Now plug in your charger.

If you don’t see the battery icon the big green charging icon on the screen, then your tablet has the issue. You have to Hard start it by holding the power button down for 12 seconds.

This will restart the unit. Then you will see that the battery icon comes up. Now you can do a normal start with instant on.

This problem happens in 10 min of non-use, in 20 min, in an hour, but it at some point always happens. The battery is still with power, but the unit constantly most times needs to be hard restarted rather than just coming right on.

I am going to contact Samsung for them to fix it this time Best Buy isn’t exactly competent or trustworthy on these issues – and for a store with sky high prices they aren’t exactly rated highly on customer support or service.

If you have this problem – please feedback some info and lets get Samsung to fix this issue or do a recall. Best buy sure doesn’t give a crap!
