Go to Google or you tube and enter the information of you device that you intend to fix. I did it when my clr get broken , I get a video step by step. Good luck.
Working inside a tablet is NOT for the feinthearted or non-technician. Best bet is the tech support / RMA route. Most of the cost of the tablet is the screen, so this means $$$. Since Amazon actually sells their tablets below cost (they make all their money on customer downloads), you would be likely paying more than the trouble is worth for the parts and STILL not have a working tablet.
You can buy the replacement glass on ebay, however it is EXTREMELY difficult to replace. Suggest you get a Cell phone or tablet repair facility repair it.
Sorry, but I'm afraid you have more than a cracked tablet. If it will not take a charge or turn on, you have a broken tablet that younwill either need to repair or replace. Most times, it will be less expensive to replace a tablet that is in such disrepair.
Good luck....
If this is a Coby then I have to say that it is going to probably be just as expensive as replacing. If you do this yourself, if you are comfortable, you can probably find a replacement shell for around 50 bucks.
the same thing happened to mine, and i thought i was out a laptop because i couldnt afford the repairs. after it had been sitting a while i figured i had nothing to lose by operating on it. i followed the hp service manual to remove the display panel, then took that apart. the screws are trickily hidden behind rubber stickers that blend into the plastic. i removed the frame, lifted the plastic cover, then carefully removed the broken glass pieces. i thought i was compromising the tablet pc features when i tore the glued perimeter of the glass. i figured a regular laptop was better than no laptop. be careful not to tear the tab attached to the copper piece on the side of the screen. also be gentle with the lcd screen. when i put it back together, i was amazed, but the touchscreen was still intact - it must be a component behind the lcd screen. i plan on replacing the glass with plexiglass to prevent another mishap, but i thought id share that this problem can be solved free of charge in just a few careful hours. good luck!
