    I have the same problem, Bought it today, but there was no charge on it, plugged it into the wall, and the screen flickers, but nothing happens. It finally flashed up with the google logo, but that soon dissapeared. Now the black screen is just lit up, nothing happens, any ideas?

    Take it back and get a replacement

    Android is a tune up sports car with custom interior, sound system, and IOS is a stock model benz

    I use Android, because unlike IOS, i keep my apps in app drawers, and not infinitely cluttered homescreens

    I was thinking about buying a nexus7,after reading the horror stories on here I'm glad I waited, Maybe the mini is a better idea.

    I have seen this problem a couple of times. It seems that what you have to do is a hard reset, simultaneously holding the power, volume up and volume down. It might seem like nothing is going to happen: continue holding them until you get a pure black screen, at which point it reboots. That's what worked for me the times it happened. Very annoying but not the end of the world.
