Not all wireless devices are equal and wireless signals aren't very predictable.

I suggest you suspect wireless interference as a possible cause - from a neighbour or from one of your own devices.

I suggest you download an app that checks wireless network quality and signal strength.
My own wireless network is highly variable in it's performance and so I used an app to check this. I found when seated only a few feet from my own router a signal on the same channel from a neighbour was much more powerful. Sometimes I would get good performance two floors up but often nothing at all in spite of the system claiming to be connected and communicating at a good speed.

OK, this is a common issue with Android, even with the Nexus line.
Try to connect again, if it does, check for how long it holds. Usually you can see if it drops by just rolling down from the top.
If there is still issues with it, tap the Airplane mode and leave it on for some 10 seconds, tap it again to turn it off, test the wifi connection again.
Also, you can forget the network, reboot the device and search for wifi. (This means that you have to type the network's password again, as if it was for the first time).
If nothing works, then you will have to factory reset your device. But unfortunately this is a common issue in Android.

SOURCE: My RCA 8" tablet for some reason has stopped charging properly. The device will flash a few different screens, but no charge. I tried to reset it but it did not work. What do I do?

Please check everything in the "charger chain"
The charger, the cable and all connectors. All connectors should be clean and shiny. When you think there could be some dust in one of the connectors, try to blow it out with a bellow photographers use. Don't try to remove anything with sharp or pointing things, You could break a contact or damage the connector. Check the charger, if it still is working (giving enough power) and check if there is not a weak place in the cable. Don't forget the connector in the tablet.

How do you change or set the default download location on my galaxy tab pro t520

Normally Samsung’s already have a “download” folder on the main apps screen. Depending what app you use only certain ones with root access will allow you to change the destination folder.
Rooting your device will allow you to fully customise options like this though. But be warned. Rooting is a whole other story and not something you should attempt if you’ve not done it before.

I rooted android devices years back there use to be some apps that would allow root access without actually rooting the device itself. But it’s been so long now I doubt the apps would still be active today.

Is there a online manuals for tablet

I don't know of any product today this doesn't have access to on-line manuals. Many products today are not even shipped with manuals, expecting you to retrieve them from the Internet site.

Go to Google.com and enter something like "manual <manufacturer> <model>" and anything that may be more specific.

Replace items in angle brackets with your device. Such as <model> with <DMX280> for that model. If you get someone trying to sell you one, try a different link...

Best of luck... I could be more specific if you could more specific...

My tablet cant come on anymore it just shows the logo when put on charge

You probably are going to have to reset the tablet as the operating system has most likely been corrupted. All tablet are basically the same in doing so by, holding down the power button until the tablet shuts off completely by itself. (Not by tapping "Power Off" like you would usually). Now you must hold the power and either the up or down volume key down at the same time until it boots into recovery mode, similar to this image. 09af6080-1a0b-4002-a1de-14c2ffbdb610.jpg
Choose the option "data factory reset" by using the volume keys to navigate and the power key to select.

Granted you will loose everything that is on your tablet but it is usually the only option you have at this point.

If this does not work you will have to find a different method to re-install the operating system image file.

I will suggest that you sign-up and check out this wonderful site by going here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ for more options and answers on recovery or installing a different operating system.

Happy Surfing! :)

I forgot my pass word to my proscan plt8031 tablet

This is everything you need to know to root/unlock/factory reset your Proscan 8" Tablet a.k.a. PLT8031.

First thing you will need to do is charge up your device, download the software needed to your desktop or some other easily accessable folder. Now this is the part that took nearly 3 days to figure out in order for the program to recognize and load an image to it you have to put the device in "recovery mode". You might ask well how do I do this, as every forum out there just says put in recovery mode and it will work, BUT HOW you still ask. The internet won\'t tell you, the company won\'t tell you, hell even other people on forums won\'t tell you. But alas I shall.

RECOVERY MODE Proscan PLT8031

Simply plug in your usb cable to your computer, then while holding your menu button, to clairify as I don\'t know the exact name of the button, it\'s the one to the left of the home button. plug in the usb cord to the device while still holding that button. Do not let go of the button until you see that windows has detected your hardware and is looking for a driver.

FYI windows usually will not find a driver, I have included links to the drivers you will need.Now if your at all used to device manager you should know how to point it to the driver you need. It will be called "rockusb.inf".

Once this is installed then open and run "RKBatchToolv1.4" as administrator. You then need to click the three dots in the top right to locate and load the "update.img" file. Make sure at this point that your device is recognized with a "green square" near the bottom of the window.

If all that checks out click the upgrade/restore button. To be clear it\'s one or the other, not both, technically didn\'t see a difference between them. This process will then start and will take between 5 to 10 minutes. DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING. if you unplug your device too soon you will have a nice paper weight instead of a tablet. Wait untill it is completely booted into the setup your android device screen before closing the rkbatchtool and safely disconnecting the device.

Congrats on your newly rooted/recovered plt8031 tablet.

I have a Kindle DX. I turned it on today and it has a black page. How do I get it back to normal?

Make sure that the kindle is fully charged. Plug your kindle into the wall charger, a yellow light will light up. When the yellow light turns green, your kindle is fully charged. Then try turning on your device. If the device still does not turn on, hold the power switch for 15 seconds, this will reboot the device.
