Thanks for that. Probably a bug and as you say this is not causing too much of problem. Odd thing is it only seems to do it if I open the tablet. Posted via Android Central App

I bought this Gpad 8.3 for my wife as a used item from ebay and it looks and performs brilliantly apart from every now and then when it wakes, by opening the case, the display is very pale and dark. This can be corrected by pressing the power button and swiping the screen but is this normal. I...

I find this odd as I bought my wife the Gpad 8.3 second hand from ebay recently and it plays video files perfectly that wont play on my samsung galaxy tab 3.8.0. These include mov files and hi res mp4 files copied from videostudio at 18 mbps. My poor samsung plays about 2 seconds of these then...

Hi just because the charger is rated at 2 amps doesn't mean the device will USE the full 2 amps to charge. Firstly charging a 4 a/h battery at 2 amps will not make the working life of the battery very long and secondly the charger running at 2 amps i.e. maximum output would shorten the life of...

That is really slow as mine will charge from 40% to full in less than that time if not being used and using the provided mains charger. If the charger is capable of supplying 2 amps then the 'fault' must be in the tablets internal charge circuit or a problem related to software. Unless of course...

They do light up on the tab 3 8.0 but only when you tap them and by that time you have selected the option? It would be good if some of the screen backlight could be directed to these buttons as this would not mean more current drain from the battery. Just a thought. Personally I don't have a...

How long has the tablet been on charge and was the tablet on or off during this period? I reckon mine takes about 1.5 hrs to go from 60% to full when the tablet is fully off but can take more than double that time if the tablet is being used. If the tablet is rarely used the battery will spend...

Re: Samsung Tab 3 7.0 usb keyboard Not sure this relevant but my wife bought a cheap Android 10 in tablet from China and later bought a case with an inbuilt keyboard. This did not have any internal power but came with a standard usb plug and an adapter to convert to a micro usb plug. Pluging...

Further to my last post I have checked the full storage date and it appears the internal storage that totals 0.98 gb has 334 mb available and the apps takes 666mb of the total. The secondary internal storage of 16gb has 11.82 gb available while the apps takes 12.01mb the few pictures stored take...

I bought my wife an allwinner A33 based 10 in unmarked tablet last week that was listed as having 16g of memory. When looking at the storage in settings it states as having 0.98 gig of internal memory plus 11 gig of internal card storage available. This would appear to mean that 4 to 5 gig is...

Have tried to replicate your problem by changing all the settings in the volume section and failed. Can only assume it is a fault or a problem with some software that has been downloaded. I use Senhieser 205 HD over ear earphones and rarely have to go beyond the recommended level and if I do...

Sadly today she found the tablet now wont turn off. Well to be precise it turns itself back on within seconds. Oh well it looks like another fiddle or she takes it back to the shop for repair or replace. Edit: actually ignore this post as the on/off button was not being held in long enough I...

Using the advice on the other thread on here about 'not turning on' I cured my sisters tab 3.8.0 by holding the on button and the home button for 15 seconds and bingo it all sprung into life. It had 26% of battery charge so plugged in charger and it charged ok. Try this before removing the case...

My sister got the update but it was very quick and did not cause any problems to her tab 3.8.0. Probably because she did not have an sd card installed and still doesn't. Me on the other hand waited 40 mins for it to download and install and it caused lots of changes and some programs not to work...

My sister brought me her tab 3.8.0 that she has had for 1 month. It would not turn on or charge. On button and home button for 20 seconds cured it so thanks for the answer. She had let it run low on charge but will not in future. Posted via Android Central App
