Today, after I was done using my tablet, I shut it off and noticed it turned off but the green led portion of the power light is still on. Tablet will not respond to power on/off commands, nor can I gain access to it via adb.
I updated to the Energy™ -.¸¸.·´¯ ICS CM9 Kang ROM several days ago, there were no problems there as I have been using the rom for a couple of days now.
All I did was hold the power button down, select "Power down" option came up "this will shut down your tablet" I selected "ok" and that was that.
KFU shows it as offline, as does adb. Windows does not detect the device.
Mine had a similar experience, using AOKP ICS, I powered it off and about 18 hours later I tried to turn it on and got nothing. Turned out the battery was just dead, I think it may have locked up while powering down and killed the battery. I would try a few things:
1. Hold down the power button for 10+ seconds and see if you can get it to do a hard shutdown.
2. Plug it in to the charger and see what happens.
3. Leave it alone for a while and hope the battery dies and it may start up after that when plugged in.
I kind of feel stupid, why is it with technology us geeks start troubleshooting by skipping the simple solutions, like "is it plugged in" well today, holding down the power button for 20 seconds fixed the problem. She booted up and everything is back to normal.
Appreciate the fast reply!
My 14th month old N7 (out of warranty ) has run into some issues. I left it alone for a few days and the battery ran out. Nothing completely out of the usual, happens from time to time. I picked it up, plugged it into the Asus charger, white battery logo came up, i then turned it on.. Google logo. I then set it down.
Came back to it about an hour later and it was off. I tried turning it on while still plugged in, notthing. I unplugged and tried turning it on, nothing. I try my HTC One charger, nothing. Tried plugging it into a USB port on one of my computers, nothing. I read the sticky thread and tried all of the recommended items. Re-seated my battery connector, nothing. I realized that when i tried turning it on, i'd get a faint flicker / 'snow' like affect, like the screen was trying to turn on, but something was wrong. I tried holding the power button for over a minute, nothing. Tried vol down+power for 60 seconds, nothing.
I would search, but im getting a message that it's down.
Any thoughts?
I'm running Slim Rom (4.3) + M Kernel. I hadn't flashed or done anything out of the ordinary in weeks.

happened on mine the other day its a low battery problem, let it charge for 30mins or so, hold power down for like 30 seconds, let go and repress power button, should boot as norm.
seems if the batt completly runs down it sorta needs a jump start from charger to get goin again
I've tried this multiple times. I was thinking along the same lines. I'll keep trying this. But so far no dice. Thanks for the reply.

ok try holding the power button down for a while , does the screen light up? if yes wait and when it turns off again try rebooting as from fresh.
if no re-try and re-try again if no luck. im at a loss, other then trying with / without charger plugged.
edit: on that thought , charge 30 mins hold power button screen lights up no detail/image, hold power ,screen goes off, charge from charger should progress ( press power momentarily and see battery charging icon, screen goes off. wait another 30mins, boot as norm.

When i hold the power button (i mention i hold it for 60 seconds at least, i literally timed it). i get flickering snow, nothing visible. but the screen turns on and i see some faint snow.
The rest of what you wrote i've tried numerous times in different configurations. charging for 30 mins, not charging, plugged in, not plugged, etc. so far i have not seen any icons or anything. The only sign of life is the flickering screen with faint snow.

It's a long shot but still: try leaving it alone for couple of days (3 for example), completely alone, don't touch it, after few days, plug it in and leave it alone, after an hour or two try turning it on.
I've had such experience with some old iPod, it died, but came back to life a month later when I tried to play with it again.
We have a sticky for this, at the top of the Troubleshooting page.

Hey everyone,
I don't know what happened wrong with my interaction with AQUOS, but the phone appears to be bricked.
Here's what happened.
Bought my phone from Boost, successfully switched carrier to Ting
Have been using the phone for more than a month without any problems at all
Yesterday, I left the phone without charging and it fully discharged
I plugged it to charge and came back to turn it on after a few hours later. This is when I noticed it wouldn't turn on.
I tried a couple things: holding the power button for a long time, and a hard reset (volume down button + power button). But the results were the same.
The screen doesn't turn on. While holding the power button or power + volume button, the only feedback from the phone is a series of prolonged vibrations (~10 seconds) separated by a brief pause (~1 second).
Have anyone experienced this problem?
Any advice/insight into this problem would be greatly appreciated.
I've had similiar issues with tablets where it completely drained and wouldn't charge via USB. At most it'd just give off a single vibrate and then die before even flicking on the screen. Try this, plug a USB cable in for a full 24hours before you hit the power button. Then give it a try. If it pops on to the screen where its charging after that let it get a full charge before fully powering on. Hope this helps and also hope its not due to the switch to ting.
Best of luck
PHONE OFF
This could be due to a bad usb connection. some usb when broke will actually discharge your phone or tablet so try to use a different usb. PLZ POST BACK IF THAT DIDNT WORK I HAVE MORE SOLUTIONS
Hi,
I have a nexus 7 2012 and it worked fine and runs CM 12. The other day I powered it off by pressing the power button then clicking the power off option in the power menu. When I turned it back on it didn't boot up and I ended up having to hold the power button for ages. Powered if off again the next day (only use it occasionally) and when I went to turn it back on it didn't boot again. This time though no matter how long I hold the button for or leave it on charge nothing happens.
I've tried everything from trying different charging cables, plugs, plugged it into laptop, pressing power + volume down and even pressing all 3 buttons. I've popped the back off and unplugged then plugged back in the battery. Nothing works there's no sign of life at all, no screen flickers no nothing I'm stumped. Think when I powered it off it was at 15% battery if that makes a difference?
Only conclusion I can come too is that the charging port is broke or the circuit. Sadly I don't have anything I can use to try and charge it using the four pin connector at the side to test it. Only thing I haven't tried is to "jump-start" the battery. Just take out battery and strip a usb cable and plug the power wires directly into the battery for half hour but not to sure whether to do that or not and wanna make sure I have exhausted all other options before trying that.
Any ideas?
Don't know what's going on with my phone, but it boots again after I unplug the charger and long press power button... It does boot up if it's plugged tho.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I take a nap at the noon and after I woke up found out it was turned off, then I boot it again.
It shows 1%, then I immediately take the phone to charge(screen off) but it doesn't show the electric icon(so i guess its off).
and I found this page: forums.oneplus.com/threads/wont-charge-after-zero-percent.739840/ ( i cant post out
side links)
it says just simply leave the phone charging then will fix the problem, but not for me...
I can feel the phone a bit warmer, still can't boot into system.
I've tried 3 combinations, power button + volume up / volume down and also all three button, nothing happened.
My phone is China version with OOS, and lates update.
Out of curiosity, what was the solution?
