SOURCE: My m1300 works great as

Hello,
Take the battery out of your device and inspect the pins on the tablet. If they are very dirty or if something is stuck between pins, it could cause the battery to fail at transferring the correct power for the device in order for it to stay on. If all the pins look ok and it still doesn't work after putting the battery back in, you may have an issue with the motherboard which will need to be serviced by the manufacture.
Here are some battery LED codes from the manual:
LED steady green --> battery 100% charged AC plugged in LED steady amber --> battery charging AC plugged in LED steady red --> battery overheated or defective (replace it) LED flashing green and amber --> battery discharging abnormally (replace it) LED slow-flashing amber --> 10% battery charge remaining AC unplugged LED fast-flashing amber for only a few seconds --> 3% battery charge remaining AC unplugged

SOURCE: My nook hasn't been turned on or charged for a few months because we lost the charger. We got a new cord and using one of the wall ports we have. Its been on the charger plugged into the wall outlet f

I read somewhere that all phones and tablets will or already are able to charge from the USB port of your PC.

I don't know if this is 100% true so, you should check it out for your Nook.
Hope this helps.

SOURCE: having issues charging tablet, when charger is plugged in, it says not charging, When charger is disconnected it says discharging.

Hello, Christina. I'm not sure of the make and model of your tablet or how old it is, but here are some tips. It sounds like, but I'm not positive, there may be a high number of background apps running on your device. Also when caches get full, especially on android devices, the system tries to find someplace to store new data and will flash a previous screen and fail. There are many apps that are cpu and transceiver intensive and use a considerable amount of battery power whether the screen is on or not. If the tablet is at its amperage limit and its plugged in, the charging voltage is being used to run the apps and the device has to be completely shut down to replenish the battery. Newer devices have better power management and no charge status indicates battery health decline. I would suggest clearing caches and deleting browsing histories in your browsers. Be sure to bookmark pages often visited for easy recollection and keep histories clear. Look through installed apps and remove anything that may be adware related. Check battery of your device it may be worn out. I hope this helps. Good luck and God bless.

My tablet will not power up. I have charged it over night and still nothing. I tried different chargers and still nothing. Help!!

Hi,
It could be that you have damaged the on/off button.
It could be that you have damaged the USB charging port.
OR
Lithium ION batteries are usually rechargeable. The use mode for these batteries is that there are a set number of recharges that equate to the life of the battery. Usually that life is approximately 1,000 charges.
If you use your battery to 50% then recharge, you can do this ~2,000 times. As the life of the battery is used up, the maximum charge lessens which means where you may have had 8 hours of play time when the battery was new, you will only have 6 hours as the battery life is used up.
In order for a Lithium ION battery to recharge there must be at least a small amount of charge left as a "seed" for that recharge. If you drain a L-ION battery down to zero, it may never recharge again or the max charge will be reduced to an insignificant amount of the original full charge. eg instead of 8 hours you may only get 15 minutes, or 5 minutes, or no minutes.
You are much better off recharging when 50% depleted than using it up til your product stops.
L-ION batteries cannot be repaired only replaced. Most cheap products using L-ION batteries cannot have their batteries replaced.

Battery does not want to charge

Could be variable reasons -> If you're using generic brand chargers or charger adapter (these have various voltage settings on them and numerous tips for insertion into charging location on unit). This is often an issue with regular cell phones as well. If you don't use the same brand charger (or at the least, one of the reputable 3rd party manufacturers, ex: Belkin)...Most importantly, make sure the charger output matches input of the phone. If you're unsure, check you owners manual for specifications. Do the same for your charger specification. If it's quicker to use the internet. Search the net for your phone model. This also includes the info you need for the charger...Depending on the age of the battery and/or the tablet/e-reader. Again, there could be many variables

My kindlefire fire is not staying on it will show the kindlefire logo but turn right back off I have a brand new charger and wire but still no luck

Did you turn the Kindle Fire on immediately after inserting the charger?
The battery may be so low that it will not operate until after it has charged for more than 24 hours.
If that is the case, it is also possible that the battery life has been permanently compromised and won't last long even if you finally get it to work.

It is also possible that the charging port on the bottom edge of the Kindle Fire has been damaged...possibly from forcibly inserting a charging cable upside down. If the port is damaged, the cable would not make contact properly and would not charge.

My Kindle Fire will not turn on. I charged it all night and it still will not turn on.

USING THE DEVICE EXCESSIVELY WITH THE CHARGER PLUGGED IN WILL DETERIORATE THE BATTERY'S LIFE CYCLE. IF YOU ASK YOURSELF AND KNOW THAT YOU HAVE DONE THIS.... I AM GOING TO BE HONEST WITH YOU,... YOU NEED A NEW BATTERY... ALSO., EXCESSIVE CHARGING WILL WEAR OUT THE CHARGING PORT. HAVE YOU TRIED A NEW CHARGER???

Why won't my table charge?

Will the charger fit any other device that you have? If so try to charge some other device. It appears that there are only two possible problems. 1 The charger is bad.- 2 The tablet is bad.
Read your manual regarding charging and how long the first charge should take.

Trio stealth G2-9 battery life will not charge

It's possible your charger is faulty. If your unit can charge with a USB cord through a computer try that. If it charges then your charger is faulty. The charger can be tested with a voltmeter by someone knowledgeable. The other problem possible is that the charging receptacle is faulty. That would show up if the USB method doesn't work. If the charger is o.k. then your battery won't hold a charge and needs to be replaced.

My battery is not lasting long enough and charging fast enough

unfortunately this is a budget tablet and there are a lot of people with complaints with battery life on them. the solutions available is try another charger unless you use the USB cable to charge it, try sourcing another battery, or if it is under warranty send it back and try for a refund and get a different brand like the nexus 7 inch tab from google.
sorry there not the best solutions.
