You're fine.

In time, doing this will damage your battery. It will stop keeping charge for long periods of time.

Transformer does not powers on with power button.

Hey guys I am not able to power on my transformer without connecting it to the charger. However the power button is working fine for locking the screen. I am not able to figure out the problem. Please help.

Sorry man this is known issue. Some of the early versions of the transformers have had problems with the power button working properly. May i ask when you purchased you TF? Did you purchase it used or did you buy it new?

Not really about the hardware button not working it's since ics it takes using a charger to power on after selecting power off

Gs4 haptic feedback turns off automatically

When the battery goes down to 15%, haptic feedback turns off by itself and I have to manually put it back on even after charging it again. This gets annoying after a while. What should I do? (i337)

Charge your phone before it gets to 15%.
Battery life is optimized when the charge is kept between 20-80%.

It's trying to save your battery. It's normal.

I know that... But I hate manually turning it on.... I'm asking how to stop it from turning off by itself.

That's the normal way on our nexus devices. Pressing volume down (vol -) and power to boot into bootloader

Nexus 7 bricked itself?

So I picked up my nexus 7 after a week of not using it and connected it to a charger. Nothing happened, not even the battery icon to show its charging. Left it on for 6 hours, still nothing, doesn't even power on. Never been rooted but I have bricked my old phone before and I can say my nexus is behaving the same way. Could it of possibly bricked itself or is this a hardware defect? I have no warranty anymore so dont suggest sending it back either. Thanks!

Inspect the USB connector for bent or damaged pins, it is likely that battery ran dry and USB is borked where it won't charge.

Any luck yet? I had the same problem once when I left mine for a few weeks.
Holding both volume and power buttons seemed to work for me.
Hope you get it sorted

There r only 3 solutions
1) Charge your nexus 7 for at least an hour
2) take out the battery and push it back in
3) hard reset your nexus 7 or keep holding the power button for 60 seconds
