A1000l-f will not turn on after firmware update

i bought my tablet last night  as a black friday sale item from office depot and it was working fine for about 2 hours. it then said i needed to update my firmware so i did. after a minute or two a screen popped up stating it needed to shutdown or something and did i want to do this now or in 30/60/90 minutes. i picked for it to do it now. i went for a walk and ever since then the dang thing will not turn on, it will do nothing. no vibrations, no noises, nothing. the back sticker says it is an a1000L-F, but it is an 8gb so i am assuming it is not an actual F? any help? the battery was at 68% and plugged in/charging when i updated the firmware. i also left it plugged in and charging all night (10 hours) and still does nothing.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

well, before taking it back to the store i tried plugging it into my iphone base charger/plug. turned right on! not sure why it died so fast when it was at "68%" while plugged in charging...but it did. i charged it to 100% and it has worked perfectly fine ever since. maybe the charger plug that comes with this thing sucks, i dont know....but it works now just fine.

  • HT4623 IPhone 5S will not turn on after newest update.  HELP!

    Hey all,
    I agreed to update my IPhone5s last evening and went to bed.  Now the phone is off and will not turn on.  Any suggestions?

    Try this:
    Plug your device into the original charger & block in a wall outlet and leave it alone for a couple of hours. Then, while it is still plugged in, try the reset again as described above.

  • MacBook will not turn on after software update

    I updated my MacBook with the newest software update, and now when I boot it up, it stays on the white window with the Apple logo and spinning wheel. After about a minute, it shuts itself down.
    What do I do?

    Mine is doing the same thing, I only had 3 updates, and it was frozen in the middle of one, so I shut it off. Although I shouldn't have done that, my computer should still be able to turn back on. I happened to read the updates for once and one was for my HP printer, and the other two were firmware updates, I don't remember specifically what they were though.

  • T440s will not turn on after BIOS update

    I have been using Windows 10 Pro 64bit for a month with only 1 persistent issue which was that the Intel Management Engine would give errors that it wouldn't shake hands with the firmware. The event error stated it was related to MEIx64. I've tried several different drivers, and different versions of Intel Management Engine but still had the same issue. So I decided to update my bios as I was on the 2.17 version. I followed the instructions step-by-step including deregistering from AMT or something in the bios. Once I ran the update utlitiy as admin within Windows it began the update and then the laptop completely shut down. So I left it for a little bit thinking it was doing something. It never turned on and now it still won't turn on.  The screen will stay black, no backlight at all of any kind. The power LED on the power button turns on (and the keyboard lights) for about 3 seconds then it turns off and makes a quiet pop sound. It then turns on automatically but with the same issue of no LCD screen, no backlight, then after about 20-30 seconds it turns off making the pop sound again.  Also, when I plug the AC power in, the power LED blinks 3 times. Not sure if this is normal or not. I've tried removing battery and AC, pressing power button 10 times at 1 second intervals and then holding power button for 30 seconds to no avail. I've tried the emergency reset button on the bottom of the laptop. I've unplugged the CMOS battery for about 30 seconds and tried again, all to no avail. I've also tried putting a bootable CD in my external CD drive to no avail. I do have an active warranty (3EZ - depot) until 2017. Is there ANYTHING else I can do to get this thing fixed???? PS - It appears to have an internal backup battery which I have not taken out. I'm trying to avoid having to really open this thing up and start removing stuff. Thanks

    Haven't gotten a reply at all so I filled out a service request and Lenovo shipped a box to put my laptop in and it ships today next day air. Thank goodness for warranties.

  • EMac will not turn on after downloading updates

    Hey everyone,
    Yesterday my wife downloaded some updates for her eMac and now we can't get it to turn on. I've checked the power supply and it is there. When we push the power button it sounds like the monitor is trying to turn on but nothing else happens. Any thoughts? Thanks for your time

    mtntrekker30,
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I'd suggest trying a double approach as one operation: reset the power supply and reset OpenFirmware and NVRAM. To do this, with the computer off, unplug everything except the Apple keyboard and mouse, including pulling the power cord from the side of the eMac. This removes the trickle current drawn by modern electronics even when nominally off. Wait 15+ minutes, then reattach the power cord only.
    Next, press the power button, then hold down the command-option-o-f keys until you see the message "Welcome to Open Firmware" (black text on a white screen with a command line prompt at the bottom). Type in the following commands and press return after each (case sensitive, no spaces):
    reset-nvram
    set-defaults
    reset-all
    The Mac should restart after reset-all (if it doesn't, type mac-boot and press Return)
    Reesetting NVRAM can be thought of as a superset of resetting PRAM; you may need to change some of your settings in System Preferences afterwards (refer to Mac OS X: What's stored in PRAM?)
    Be aware that if this works, the startup will take significantly longer than usual at the white screen/Apple logo/spinning wheel stage. Part of this will be due to the updates, most will be due to the system running a silent version of Disk Utility's Repair Disk function before continuing to the OS X startup screen. Give it plenty of time.

  • My iPhone will not turn on after a yet another blue screen of death. Please help!

    As mentioned above, my phone will not turn on after a yet another blue screen of death. All of a sudden it turned off, and it wouldn't turn on for quite some time, even after I plugged it in the charger. It wasn't long after the screen turned on, but it only displayed a bright black. I decided to turn it on and off a few times. Nothing worked.
    I have also tried to call the phone from another one. It was as if the phone was simply off.

    Hello ZarinaUrum,

  • Light will not turn off after installing new cyano cartridge

    Light will not turn off after new cyano cartridge installed

    I suspect that the ones that say they will work with Windows 8 on the box.  If it does not say that, check the maunfacturer's website.  They eventually will have to give Windows 8 support for the new cards or loose out to the competitors cards.

  • My iphone will not turn on after I replaced the battery

    My iphone will not turn on after I replaced the battery, itunes logo comes up, but it will not connect and does not reset! does anyone know what I can do?

    Who replaced the battery, you, Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider? If you did it yourself, then you could have done anything to disable it. It also voids any warranty and post-warranty support from Apple and the forum. You are on your own. If Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider replaced it, then take it back and have them check it.
    The iPhone does not have a user replaceable battery, or user serviceable parts. It is meant to only be serviced by Apple, or authorized service providers.
