Charging the N7

[jazz1266]

When the charger is plunged in is there a light on the N7? I think my N7 is dead. I charged it for three hours and it still wont power on.

Nope, no light. Hold down the top right button for a few seconds.

I could hold down that button for a few hours and it wont power on.

Have you tried another USB cable or power source?

If it's powered off and charging, there should be an animated battery symbol on-screen.

Are you using the included charger? My Galaxy Tab 10.1 requires a 2amp charger to indicate a charge....

My charger doesn't work either. Plugged it into my Transformer Prime charger and that seems to work. (But then my ATP cord fell apart unplugging it from the charger - Asus)

Others reporting charger problem on rootzwiki too. Think Asus could have at least gotten the charger right.

I talked to Google they are going to send me a replacement maybe I'll have it by Christmas. I was using the included charger. The N7 would get very warm but there was no battery icon and it would not power on.
