so ive had cm7 on my touchpad for over a month working fine. the other night the battery died and now it wont charge or turn on. ive tried 2 different plugs 2 different usb cables and even tried usb on the computer. i let this thing charge all night for 9 hours and i never get even the charging symbol. ive tried the reset power+home button for up to 60 secs and the power+vol up to hopefully do webdoctor but it does nothing. any suggestions
Maybe. Doesn't make sense how. Try holding the power and home for a very long time. I've read of people having to hold it for quite a long time before something happened. Try for 3 mins maybe that'll work.

Good evening everyone, I have a Nexus 7 8gb, but the thing is, I cannot turn it on now.
It happened as follows:
I was using it every now and then, mostly to read and play.
I was using the charger to charge my cellphone too (XTC Explorer) as it was a lot faster, being 2amp/h.
I updated the cell to 4.1 and at the same week noted the battery wasn't running that long, but blamed it to the rom.
The cellphone also took a lot longer to charge with the nexus charger, yet again I blamed the rom.
I noticed the Nex was at 8% while reading so decided to charge it, but I guess I forgotten.
The next time I wanted to use it it wouldn't turn on. I figure it had no battery.
I plugged the nexus charger to the nexus a whole night and in the morning it still wouldn't turn on.
I figured something must be wrong with the charger, so I tried with the cellphone and nook color charger, but both are .5 amps/hour.
It wouldn't charge, neither connected to the pc (also .5a/h via usb) so I tried a psp go charger, as it is rated at 1.5 amp/hour, much closer.
I connected it at night and saw the charging icon (white on black battery with the ray) and left it overnight.
The next morning it wouldn't turn on either.
I've bought it almost two months ago and I really enjoy it =) but now I'm desperate.
I cannot call google play for the warrant because I'm in Argentina, and I don't believe they will ship me a replacement, nor anything. This one my brother bought from them, but he went back to US a few days ago, and I didn't think of giving it to him to RMA.
I tried keeping the on button, for 5 secs, 30 sec, 90 secs, 120 secs, and no dice. Also tried holding the Up Volume key to restart it, but no chance.
Please help!
Had a similar issue to this over the weekend after not charging for 2 days and the battery going dead. I let it sit on the original charger overnight and for some reason it did not charge. It kept booting and shutting down once it booted due to a low battery warning. It eventually got to the point where the screen would go to fuzzy lines and light but no boot.
To finally get it working I did a combination of a few things but don't actually know what got it going.
Put it on a different (kindle) charger and let it sit for an hour or 2, did several hard resets holding both just the power and also the up/down volume and power all at the same time for up to 60 plus seconds. I switched back to the stock charger and did an additional hard boot by holding just the power for 30+ seconds and it started booting and charging.
I did however put it on the charge again last night and noticed this morning it was still at half battery and didn't get a charge. I ended up putting it on a mifi charger this morning and it's charging again so don't know what is up with the stock charger. Also, have all the latest updates to 4.2 as far as I know as there have been charging issues reported with earlier versions...

Try this, it just saved my device:

try holding down the volume DOWN and the power key for 10 seconds, then release the power key and keep the volume down key pressed, and it will force the unit to restart into the bootloader from any stage, its effectively like pushing the restart button on the front of a computer and constantly pressing the delete key to get into the bios.

hey guy's i haven't played around with my touchpad in over 4 months...recently i have tried turning it on and it was completely dead...so i plugged it in for like 3 days..still nothing..

i plugged it to my pc and tryed the volume up trick.he pc seems to recognize it in the device manager..see on pic.

Does the device even attempt to power up? Or is there no on screen activity whatsoever?

can u pm me what u used to get it working thanks
Unplug your tablet, then hold in Power + Vol Down + Menu. After 10 or so second the Touchpad should turn on and show the AC plug. Plug it into the AC charger and let it charge. If the Touchpad was completely dead and didn't have any charge whatsoever (you say that you've been charging for 3 days), you would want to charge it for a few hours first. It charges extremely slow in a powered-off state and likely won't get much more power than is required to boot into the low battery mode even after 3 days of charging while off.

Hey I have a HP Touchpad (16 GB) was working with CM9 perfectly . I left it over night and the battery drained out. Now its not turning on. I have tried everything Holding the power and home button or vol + every combination even my fingers are now starting to get numb holding those keys.
It has happened two times before but I was able to Turn it on by holding power and home key but this time it just wont work.
When I connect the Touchpad to the PC it is recognized as QHUSB_DLOAD. I have searched through out the net but wasn't able to find any solution.
Please Help.
If you have or are able to borrow a Touchstone charger that should bring it back to life (It's the only thing that has worked for me).
I was able to revive mine using a Samsung S4 charger... Then the old charger and touchstone worked again... Don't give up, took me a couple of days...

Did you get it working? If so what did you do?

I you have no success, try tpdebrick. It works. Somehow. For me.
I've read through about 20 threads about similar issues, but I can not find any way to solve my problem.
My Nook has cyanogenmod installed on it (i think version 10, but I don't remember). I had installed it a long time ago, and the nook was working perfectly, never had any problems with it.
Well, I had it put away for several months without using it, and now it won't turn on anymore. I left it charging overnight, using the official wall charger that came with it.
When I push the power button, the screen will come on and show the battery picture for a few seconds, and the led near the charging port will change colors between orange and green.
I have tried pressing every combination of buttons, and holding them for different lengths of time, including upwards of 30 seconds, probably about a hundred times. I even followed advice to hold the power and n buttons down for a full 5 minutes. Nothing.
Is there ANYTHING else I could possibly try here, or is this thing dead?
You can remove the battery and recharge it with an external charger. Then reinstall it. Don't let the battery become fully depleted to avoid need for the external charger.

It happens to some of my HD+ when the battery drained ...
Just plug in the charger awhile ... then hold "power" for a few secs while holding the "Home" key (upside down U) ...
Hi,
My HP Touchpad will not turn on. This never happened before. Few times there were some small problems to restart, but I usually do the reboot by holding down the power and the home button and everything was ok, but this time it didn't work. I held it down for 15 and more seconds. I tried to push just power button for quite a while, too. However, it still does not wake up. Usual I keep my Touchpad in sleeping mode, and I didn't let my battery to drain but this time. I switch it off, and I didn't use it during 3 or four days and when I tried to charge it, didn't even recognize that it was being plugged in. The screen is still blank.
I tried to find any solution on the Internet, but everything was not useful.
You guys my last chance!!!
Are there any other ways to fix this?
All help appreciated. Thanks!!!
P.S.
My OS is Android Lollipop 5.1
USB cable is OK is charging my friend HP Touchpad without any problems.
I reset the adapter it means I turn this one way and later back.
I tried my friend charger from his HP Touchpad - nothing.
I left my Pad for few hours plugged - nothing.

One of mine died, I left on charger for I can't remember how long, maybe a week, picked it up and it was on. One other thing to try is pushing the home button 17 times. Good luck.

Thanks, it didn't help, but I'm still waiting for solution. I think that my Touchpad is not broken because before few times something similar happened, and I heard that sometimes when battery is really empty some people had the same problem.
Place on touchstone to fully charge up / boot up?
