Tablet turned off but won't turn on - Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Samsung Tab 3 7.0 recently turned off and won't turn on. So I opened the case, disconnected the battery cable let it sit for a while and then reconnected it. Without turning it on i let it charge, and not it shows 100% charge.
I tried doing all different reset combination but nothing is turning on the tablet. Pressing the home button will display the battery percentage at 100% but that's about it.
Is there anything I can do to turn it on? I am trying to do a factory reset on the tablet but it seems it needs to be on to use ADB.

NexusDown: switches off when entering sleep mode

Guys, I'll ask here first to see if it resolves. My gnex is defective.
With the phone turned off, connect the USB, I can not tun on. No charging icon appears, but he is.
With the phone on, if I connect to PC by USB, it just turn off.
With the phone on, putting the wall charger, the phone charging.
With it on, and go into standby after about 5 seconds, the unit turns off.
Was with the original ROM and now put the CM. But nothing changed. Something else might be? I'm using an old machine because it has no conditions.
I make a full wipe, davik, data and the problem still.

[Q] One x auto shutdown

I am experiencing this issue since the last two days, the cell would turn off automatically without any warning and will not turn on or charge for some time which can be a few seconds to hours. Here are my observations :
1. The phone will turn off when its screen is off. I have tried charging with the screen on for 2 hours and it didnt turn off as soon as i took off and put it on stand by it turned off again in a few minutes
2. Firstly the cell will not turn on neither will it charge once it shuts itself down, but when it does turn on it will display htc logo then turn off again. you will have to try turning it on a couple of times till it finally turns on. After turning on the phone will again shut down in matter of minutes. also date and time will be reset.
I have tried factory reset but didnt work out. Also vol button + power button combo doesnt work when the phone is not turning on. I have checked fourms but none of the described methods seem to work.
Any clue what might be causing it and how can it be solved. Thank You

Phone not turning on.

Hi. So after a long wait I got my Zenfone 2 ZE551ML today. The first thing I did was turning it on and it turned on normally, then I proceeded to make the initial setup (logging into google account, etc) without any problems. Then after about 10 minutes of use the phone suddenly turned off with the battery being at around 35% and didn't want to turn on again. I read that old firmware (like the one that comes default with the phone) had battery display errors so I thought the phone had run out of battery, so I charged it for 8 full hours and I unplugged it now. To my surprise the phone is not turning on either. The only way I can make the screen show something is by connecting it to the charger, it vibrates and displays a white battery icon, eventually changing to fully green (fully charged battery, the green led indicator also appears) only to disappear like 3 seconds after. Can't turn the phone on while charged and can't even make the phone show the battery icon again (unless I unplug and plug again, repeating the cycle). So, what can I do to turn it on?
Thanks in advance.

I have a feeling that you did not hold the power button long enough. Disconnect the charger first, and wait for about 10 seconds. Then, hold the power button for at least 6 seconds. The phone should then vibrate and then you may release the power button. Other reasons why your phone may not seem to be turning on at all might be due to the back cover not being fully locked in, thus not making any contact with the power on the motherboard itself.
Do report back the results.

I did. Doesn't work. I also removed the back cover and pressed the power button with nails with no results either. Personally I think there's something to do with the power button as it doesn't even responds while charging (pressing it should display the battery icon) and the only time I could use the phone it didn't work to wake up the phone or setting it to sleep, only double tapping worked. What is strange is that it worked the first time I turned on the phone though.
Are you able to get into FastBoot mode? If so please try performing a hardware reset including wipe cache partition. Please see the following:

HTC 10 Unresponsive & Can't Restart But Alive

I hope I'm posting this in the right place but I'm desperate for help.
My phone, HTC 10, froze and then the screen turned off while I was taking a picture.
The charge should have been around 80%.
Symptoms:
The screen is unresponsive.
Couldn't get the home button/finger print sensor to turn the screen on.
Couldn't get the power button to turn the screen on.
A call to my phone could not reach my number as well.
When plugged in to a wall charger or laptop no indicator light turns on.
When connected to a laptop, the laptop makes that connection noise and a long name with QualComm in it shows up.
Tried Power Button + Volume Up for 10 seconds but didn't get any result.
Side note:
The power button was a little faulty before as well.
You have to squeeze it a certain way to make it work.
I need to somehow restart my phone. Any ideas?

Try to clean all buttons really well, if it keeps failing to boot and the phone is still recognized as Qualcomm it's probably bricked.
Simple explanation of the word bricked :
When the phone doesn't boot, when you can't access the bootloader, download mode or recovery it's bricked!

Strange turn of events: I plugged the phone to my laptop because I read somewhere that it drains the battery. Just for the kicks, after a few hours, I unplugged and re-plugged my phone. Suddenly, there was light. The battery light came back. I immediately switched to the wall charger and once I did that the battery icon appeared showing 1%. Now, it's peacefully charging away. Will see if it actually turns on later on once it's charged about half an hour.
