Why the tablet does not turn on and how to solve the problem

Many tablet owners have at least once encountered a situation where the device simply does not turn on. This does not mean that the tablet is of poor quality – such problems happen even with new technology. Often the lack of response does not mean any serious damage. We suggest that you familiarize yourself with the main reasons why tablets do not turn on and how to solve this problem.

Two main reasons why the tablet does not turn on

Experts are sure that in most cases, devices do not want to respond to the power button for two reasons: hardware failure and software errors.

Hardware failure

This is a breakdown of some part inside the tablet or damage to the contacts. Here are the main reasons:

1. USB connector not working
2. motherboard damage;
3. connecting incompatible devices;
4. the power button does not work;
5. the screen cable is damaged;
6. the battery has stopped functioning.

These are the most common problems and, unfortunately, not everything can be solved on your own, but we will discuss this in detail below.

Software bugs

Errors in the operation of the software do not depend on the operation, that is, they are not affected by falls, scratches or other mechanical damage. Here are some reasons for software failures:

• the presence of viruses and pests;
• damage to the operating system itself;
• software failures;
• failures in the settings of the tablet.

It is difficult to determine what exactly caused the lack of nutrition without the help of a specialist, but this is not always necessary. The fact is that software errors are much easier to fix than hardware ones.

How to solve the problem of the lack of power of the tablet

In case of hardware failures, you can try only one way – put it on charge and make sure that it works exactly. After that, do not touch the tablet for 2-3 hours. It is possible that work will resume even if the device was charged. If this does not work and the problem is much more serious, then you need to go to the service center to the specialists.

With software errors, everything is much simpler. There are several ways to solve them at home.

1. Reboot. This action often resolves many crashes. To do this, just hold the power button for 10-15 seconds.
2. reset. Each tablet has either a small hole or the inscription Reset. You need to take a thin object like a needle, press and hold for about 15 seconds.
3. recovery program. It is launched by different key combinations depending on the manufacturer. For example, “Volume up” and the power button, or “Volume down” + power + “Home”. After that, a special program will start that will reset everything to factory settings. But the problem is that all data will be erased. So use this case only when you have everything you need saved in reserve.

As you can see, problems with lack of nutrition do not always require the help of specialists. Sometimes you can manage on your own. If your device is simply outdated, we recommend that you look for a new tablet in the Allo online store. The catalog has a large selection of tablets for any budget. And installments and guarantees are available to all buyers.
