It's weird, it only charges when It's off. But, when on it acts like It's not connected to the charger. I've tried factory resetting. It also won't connect to my computer, simply because it won't charge. I've searched here and I haven't seen a problem like it. I can still charge it when It's off.

Hi ,
Do you charge it by OEM charging cable ? If so , you should use another cable and try charging by new one.Unfortunately , the OEM cable has problem with charging the device.
More info please. Are you rooted? What ROM/Kernel? Did you make any changes lately? When was the last time it worked right?

Make sure your laptop is plugged in & charging as well, otherwise I don't think it will work.
Make sure you have the drivers installed as well. I read in the motorola site somewhere that the computer won't charge unless the drivers are installed. Also it charges much slower than the wall outlet does.

Usr USB 3.0 port if your laptop has one so it supplies more power. USB 3.0 will charge almost as fast as AC.

Just let it be. it won't turn on if the battery is below a certain level. Let it sit and charge and it will eventually turn on.
Here we go again.. Only the 1,500th time this has come up..
yes.. Have you been flashing ?
And if it stucked on bootloader you will need factory cable...
Or ..
You can buy a charge only cable just like me, from ebay.. Very cheap.. The phone can boot without even battery! That's why it can be charged if you stucked o bootloader!

This happened to me and you need to plug it in an AC wall charger I left mine on a usb for like 3 hours and it did nothing but on an AC wall charger it took 5-10 mins then it terned on. Hope this helps.

You returned it because of battery life?. What do you mean?.
I tought you returned the phone because of the locked bootloader and because its a bit easy to brick it.

I have read a post about factory cable,it seems that it will be powered on forcibly when plugged via this cable even without a battery
How to make it? short the +5v and ID pin?i dont know,just search this board
My N7 just randomly died. It's been working great for a month and now suddenly won't turn on. The battery was very low and it probably shut down from that. But after plugging in to recharge, nothing!! No power, won't turn on, has no indication it's charging ... totally dead. I bought retail but if i return it now, my data is not wiped. I'm afraid that after i exchange it, anyone either at the store or at google/asus that gets it back and gets it turned on will have access to all my accounts.
any suggestions?
does it connect when you plug it via usb?

It's 100% dead so it doesn't connect at all, not power not usb. Very weird, it's had zero issues until now and it just randomly died ... no trigger
Since you didn't provide info on how you were trying to charge it...
o are you using the OEM charger and cable?
o how long did you let it charge (let it go a couple hours)
o When you try to start it up after letting it charge for a while, press and hold the power button for a long time 30+ seconds
If you can't get it to ever power on, you will never get the data off since that is the only way to access the memory on the device.
I'll just leave this here...

Anyone else ever have this issue? Wondering if its a bug in the newer roms or if its just something with my device? Ive requested an RMA with Asus, but I was curious to see if anyone else had this issue. Tablet charges only when off. Ive made certain I am using the correct cord/power supply that camw with it and have also done factory reset. Im running the latest build of Paranoid Android.

I also can not connect it via USB to my computer to be able to return it to stock and lock boot loader. I think I am in for it guys. Anyone help?

It's also written in manual that nexus 7 only charges while being turned off. This means charging from anywhere else than outlet. It's because computer USB port doesn't have enough power to charge the tablet while it's being used.

I'm not trying to charge it though. I just want to return it to stock conditions to RMA to Asus. It doesn't get recognized when I plug it in via USB port. I've tried all manner of USB cables, including the one that came with the device. I feel as though I am royally screwed on this one, unless someone knows of a way to unroot/lock the bootloader without needing to connect my tablet to a USB port?
Well...anyone know how much Asus charges for a rooted/unlocked Nexus 7 to be worked on? :[
Sorry if that was asked here before...
Now and then( not every time) my N4 doesn't charge to the end...it usually stops at 77% - and that's after being connected to the charger for over 5-6hours at night...
Anyone else has same problem??
Thanks

Have noticed it when it was making low battery sound when charging from 2%...moving cable around did not help at all so it seem it is not USB socket in the mobile.
Same was happening this morning after I came to the mobile to unplug it from charger...don't have other cable to checkvif it is cable problem...but it doesn't happen all the time...

So my nexus had been unplugged and without charge for about 3 weeks or so, I've been very busy at work. I try and connect the tablet so that i can use again and the screen flickers for an instant and nothing happens, I don't see the white icon charging animation and no response after that. It's my tablet done or is there a solution for this. Thanks to anybody that can help.

Ok, I don't really know what exactly the problem is. But I think the battery seems to be dead. because if it is still good, at least it shows the indicator light when it's plugged with charger.. If u have a simple tool to test battery energy maybe u can find out. or maybe try another battery..
Leave it plugged into the charger for a good while and then hold down the power button hard, for about 30 seconds. See if that forces it on.
How long did you leave it plugged in for? It may take a few hours...

It was plugged for like an hour or so and no dice.

Not sure if it would help your specific problem, but my thread covers every fix known-to-man for issues such as yours. Check it out if you haven't yet.

Try leaving it plugged in overnight. I once had a laptop battery die on me, had to plug it in for like a week before it would turn on again.

Your device is hibernating to prevent further damaging the battery. Plug it in... boot to bootloader... select power off using the volume keys... the tablet will now charge normally

hi
My problem is solved, I have a friend who had the same problems with the tablet Nexus 7 16GB, the back of the unit opens easily with just a fingernail to open a case as remote and actually the battery plug is not fully inserted into the camera, a little bit of nail to reconnect the cable and now my tablet displays well 100% load.

Yup - there is a sticky that covers this method, and all the other methods as well. For anyone else suffering from similar N7 issues, be sure to check it out. Either go to stickies in this Troubleshooting section, or use this link.
