Nexus 7 2013 not charging!

[eunseo choo]

So I had my nexus 7 2nd generation for about a year now. So I one day, when I woke up, I realize my tablet wasn't charging. Unfortunately, the night before, my tablet got to 0% and was totally dead, and I forgot to charge it. Now, when I try to turn it on(I was charging), then it would just have the empty battery sign, not the sign that it was charging. I searched for it forever and I found the bootloader thing that I can do, but since my battery was too low, it wouldn't let me go to the bootloader mode. I rooted my tablet, so I can't really send it back. Please help me! Thanks!

Welcome to Android Central! If a lithium battery gets to true zero, my understanding is that it becomes irreversibly discharged. But most devices like the N7 shouldn't really let it get that low before automatically shutting down. I suggest keeping it plugged in undisturbed for a good 24 hrs, then come back to it and try to power back on. If that doesn't work, try using a different cable/charger, in case the one you're using got fried for some reason. If that doesn't work, you might be out of luck.

Make sure you are using the charger and cable that came with the unit.

I'd echo the same two comments above. Also remember to press in the power button and hold down for a good 10 sevonds
