Question acer battery charge question

[theyikes]

HI Guys!!! Quick question. My acer tablet is stuck in boot loop mode but that's not why I'm here.

I can boot to fastboot mode, my question is will my battery charge in fastboot mode or should i just let it charge in boot loop mode.

Looking forward to hearing from someone.

Devices should charge regardless of what mode they're in, or even if they're powered on or off.

Thanks B. Diddy. It's taking an awful log time.
I'll leave it overnight and see how i get on.
Thanks again!

Are you charging on a wall outlet or a computer USB port?

wall. i tried usb port but no joy! It keeps rebooting to the load screen and then it resets. It's very frustrating.

Are you trying to charge it while it's powered off? The constant rebooting will use energy. While the device is plugged into a wall outlet, try forcing a shutdown by pressing and holding Power for about 30 seconds.

I tried that B.Diddy. I'll give it another try. It's good to talk to someone who knows what they're talking about.

You really need to differentiate there are two separate issues with your tablet -- one is the battery recharge and the other is the boot loop problem. They are two separate aspects that are independent from each other.
-- Power off your tablet, plug it into the power adapter, and charge up the batter. Stop trying to restart it until the battery is charged back up, that's not helping nor is it going to fix the boot loop problem. Take note that battery charging is a hardware-to-hardware process, the installed Android operating system is irrelevant. The battery is hardware, the OS is software.
-- When an Android device is stuck in a boot loop, that's often an indicator that the installed Android OS is corrupted or damaged. When that occurs, it's necessary to reload the device with a stock firmware. That process is often referred to as flashing the ROM. So boot looping is not a 'mode' as you referred to, it's problematic indicator.
ROMs are very specific and are created to used only on a specific model. So ROMs are not interchangeable, you should only flash your tablet with the stock ROM that exactly matches your Acer tablet. Not knowing just which model of Acer tablet you have, it's up to you to research if Acer provides ROMs to its customers, or if there's a trust-worthy, third-part repository for Acer ROMs. (... most firmware sites provide instructions on the flashing process.)
-- Have you tried doing a Factory Reset? Note that a Factory Reset only wipes the general user data partition clean, it does nothing to the operating system partitions. So a Factory Reset deletes the user data while flashing the ROM reinstalls a 'clean' OS and software. The former being invasive and drastic, the latter being more so. But if a Factory Reset fixes the boot loop issue, you shouldn't have to resort to flashing the ROM.
