Why Does My Android Phone or Tablet Not Turn On

all tablets can charge while you are using them, on rare occasion the battery will completely discharge and will need to be charged to the minimum before operating the tablet.

RCA tablet wont charge, fix it

It sounds like there's a problem with the charger. The wire on the charger is rather delicate. So is the port on your tablet where the wire plugs in. There may be a break inside the wire. If you dropped your tablet while the wire was plugged in and it hit the floor on the charger plug, the charger plug could have damaged the charging port in the tablet or the wire itself could be damaged.
Find someone else who has the same tablet and ask to switch chargers to see if either of them still work on the other tablet. If your friend's charger starts charging your tablet without a problem, then the problem is a a broken wire in your charger. If neither charger will charge your tablet but both chargers charge your friends tablet without a problem, then the problem is with the charging port on your tablet.

Depends upon exactly what's happening.

• When you plug in your charger, does it try to charge the Tablet? ie Does the Charging icon come on the screen briefly when the charger is plugged in with the Tablet turned off, or does the little charging 'lightning' symbol come onto the battery icon on the home screen when the Tablet is running?

• I assume the battery has gone flat, but will the Tablet turn on when the charger is connected?

If the charging icon comes on, and/or the tablet will run on the charger, then both the charger and the charge port connection on the Tablet are OK, and the most probable cause of failure is the internal battery which will need to be replaced.

However, If neither the icon comes on nor the Tablet runs on the charger, then either the charger has died, or the plug/socket on the Tablet where it connects is faulty. The most likely cause is that the charger has died and will neeed to be replaced

There is a slight chance that the internal charging circuits in the Tablet may have developed a fault, but that is highly unlikely {:o)

Try to charge your tablet pc with your laptop or desktop pc.
if it will show the charging then your charger may be out of order.
if it will not charge with your laptop or desktop then your tablet's charging circuit not working.

it means that something is wrong with your battery or its charger

Is your battery removable? Try removing the battery and then plugging in the tablet. If the tablet runs on only the AC power, then your battery is shot.
