Nexus 7 froze up, turned off. Now it won't turn back on

[GSDer]

Welcome to the forums!

I have a nexus 7 rooted and everything I have mutirom and it boots for 2 secs. then shuts down

Sounds like you need to try reloading the stock firmware https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images (there are installation instructions lower down on that page).

I have a similar problem. My 2013 Nexus 7 has run out of battery and now nothing work.
I have try to follow the nexus help guideline on google website but nothing worked, i also try to push and hold buttons but still not work. It's been now a week that my tablet ran out of battery and i try to charge it few times, with the original usb cable and with my nexus wireless charger but nothing work.
I have unlock my bootloader but the rom is still stock android 4.4.2 and no root.
(sorry for my bad english but it isn't easy to explain for me ^^)

Can it be fix ? Should i buy a new battery? a new tablet ?

Re: GalaxyNexus froze up, turned off. Now it won't turn back on

I was using it and then it just turned off. I have tried everything from taking the battery and sim out. To trying to reset it. Nothing happens when I try to reset it. I have held the volume buttons and power button down for minutes and it still won't do anything.The only thing that pops up is the battery symbol when its plugged in. Can someone help please?

Morggy and Lp84: Try just holding the power button and volume up button. That has been working wonders for me.

If the battery symbol comes on, let it charge for a while then try again.

Good luck.

Are you using the charger and cable that came with the tablet. The charger is different that the ones you use for a phone (more amperage). And make sure you charge it for an hour or so before you hold down the power button.

I'm having the same problem with my Pioneer! When I try turning it on, all I get is a split second white flash, I know this might sound weird, but it won't turn on, it only turns off.

Welcome to Android Central! What's your Pioneer? Is it a tablet? This is the Nexus 7 subforum, so you're better off posting here: General Help and How To - Android Forums at AndroidCentral.com

Thank GOODNESS for this thread. My Nexus froze up, and wouldn't power down, wasn't responding to any of the buttons, and it was in a game screen, so couldn't even pull the menu down. The power+volume down button worked wonders.

Mine was doing the same thing, tried all the google help things daily for a week, and rang the help centre this evening. They had nothing. Then i just removed the back cover, tightened up all the screws, and pushed on all the connectors. Now it works. Not sure exactly what I did, maybe the battery connection was slightly loose? Regardless, it worked.

Hi, yesterday my nexus 7 tablet was working fine until it was frozen on the home screen with all the apps on it. The only thing I could do was turn it off to stand by but when I turn the power button it just turns it back to the frozen screen. Now what I did to try to reset it was hold the power, the volume up and down all together to reset. When I did that it turned off. As I know it was probably cuz the battery was low and it was dying, what do I do? PLEASE, you're my last hope

Have you read through the earlier messages in this thread? In one of them, B. Diddy (who has been immensely helpful many times) pointed out to someone that s/he should hold down just the power button, not the power button and the volume button, and the power button should be held down for a long time. B. Diddy also offers a URL that may be useful (his message is #13 in this thread).

I hope this helps.

Oh wow, I didn't realize I was still subscribed to this thread. My Nexus is my back up tablet now, lol.
