When you press and hold in the power button it should boot up. If it doesn't the battery might be dead so charge it up and try again. If it doesn't boot up after charging we need more information.

Are you getting any kind of a screen or just nothing?

    Is it scrolling the word android? It takes about 24 scans to boot up. If it's just hanging there it won't boot up. So find the 'reset' hole. It s a tiny hole in which you inert a paper clip. this will reset the tablet. then try again. If this doesn't work then there are other options to try. What is happening isthatvthe operating system is not functioning. It's a common problem with these units. I had to take one back.

    Is it scanning the word Android. It takes about 25 scans before it boots up.

  • Peter Oct 26, 2014

    It should be scanning the word Android. You can see it scanning as it lights up the word. This takes time. About 25 scans and you should get a start up screen. If it doesn't boot up try resetting it by inserting a paper clip in the reset hole and pressing on it. That shuts it down. So try again by holding the power button and the volume up button till the pros can logo appears again. It will go into format mode when it boots up. Use the volume buttons to select wipe. And then boot up again. You will lose any saved data and have to start from scratch.

Replace battery 7in proscan tablet

You have to watch that the buttons don't fall out of place when you open it. So use a strip of masking tape to hold them in place before you open the case.

To open the tablet it snaps in all around. You need to insert a small screw driver between the case edge and another small screwdriver to keep prying all the way around. You can hear it when it snaps open. You may need the point of a small sharp knife first. I have opened and closed mine to get the battery number. I will be replacing mine as well. You need to solder the new battery in.

I dis a factory reset on my Proscan 8 PLT8235G tablet. Now, I can't install or update any apps. What do I do to fix this?

Not being able to update any apps simply means either you don't have access to the internet or that your apps update is programmed to function ONLY when you are connected to/through WiFi.

second, you can download standalone 'raw' apk files online and install on your tab.

Remember to go into your Settings---Security (and under Device administration, check 'Unknown sources' and activate 'allow installation of apps from unknown sources'.
Done.

This is safe.

Post update or feedback please

I just received a Proscan 8 tablet....instructions that came with it are TOTALLY USELESS! I want full instructions as to how to use it, open it, etc....so that I can download it.

The person who will attempt to write the instructions for you will in all likelihood read them first in the user's manual. I suggest you try again reading the manual.
