My Touchpad might have just died. - TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried to wake up my Touchpad last night and nothing happened. So I pressed the power button and nothing. I held the power button for 15 to 20 seconds. I felt the tablet vibrant once but it never came on. So I held the power button another 20 seconds and felt it vibrate, but still nothing. I also had it plugged into the HP power adapter at this time.
I unplugged it and tried pressing and holding the power button a few more times. I noticed that without the power plugged in I don't feel it vibrant when holding the power button.
I'm trying it with a 2amp Samsung adapter with the HP cable. But after having it plugged in an hour it still doesn't powering on.
Any other troubleshooting steps I can take?

When the battery is completely depleted it takes a long time (24+ hours) to get it up to speed again. Leave it plugged in overnight with the stock charger, or touchstone..
The button combination that reboots is power button and home button, held together for up to 10 seconds. That should get you to moboot.
Good luck.

Ahh... I didn't hold the power and home buttons together for 10 seconds. After doing that, I got it to reboot and back into Android.
The battery is at 100% and it was on the charger when it decided not to wake up anymore. But it's alive again. Thank you very much.

[Q] Help- My atrix HD is frozen. How can i force shut down

my atrix hd is rooted and I updated it to kikat with a ROM but it froze it wont respond to anything seems the only way to wait till the battery drains but that will take many hours. Anyway to force reboot or shut down?
Hold down the power button for a long time (> 10 seconds).
Eventually it should shut off/restart.
You can also try holding the Volume down and power buttons for a long period (10-15 seconds), that should normally take you to recovery mode.
hold the power button until it vibrates

That is incorrect. Holding volume up and power, then releasing power when you see the boot logo, takes you to recovery. Doing the same with volume down takes you to fastboot.
To answer the initial question, hold all 3 physical buttons until the screen or the LED turns off, at which point you can power it back on normally.
The LED is a good tell if it's frozen and the screen is off, like if it froze while charging, because the light will stay on after unplugging it.

3T on 3.5.4 not turning off?

Seems like my 3T does not turn off when I turn it off via pressing the power button. When I have a charger connected it's easy to spot when the vibration goes off, but the charging light keeps lit - even when I remover the charger. It's also apparent that the device won't turn on when pressing the power button for three seconds. I need to press it about eight secs and then another two to turn it on.
Turning off works when rebooting the phone and turning it off from the bootloader (my device is unlocked) or when turning it off at the pin entry (have boot pin set).
Can anyone confirm?
Tested with clean system (no root, no Xposed) and still happening...
Turning off with the power button works on my device, powering up DOES take some time, 5-8 seconds of holding the power button down.
Seems like forever holding that power button!
Maybe I need to be more precise. Yes, I can "kill" the phone just holding that button for about ten seconds. But that's not the point. I suspect it does not power off properly.
To test, hook it up to the charger. Press power for about three seconds. Select "Turn off". Wait for the phone to vibrate. Charging light is on. If it'd be powering off correctly, it would kind of turn on again to show you the charging screen (battery symbol, then dash symbol). Does not do this for me. Instead it sits there... black. When I remove the charger, the charging light stays on.
To turn the phone on again, I then have to press power about ten seconds (turning it off), and then again to turn it on.
I tried your exact method, and my device shuts down (connected to the power cord, plugged in) normally, and them restarts while holding down the power button in 3 seconds.
When not connected to the dash charger, my device does power down very slowly as described in my earlier post (stock kernel)
My devices is rooted with the blue spark kernel though--so maybe that has some baring in my "normal" shut down/startup behavior.
I have the same bug to you... So I disconnected the cable...
Just wait for the future updates....

Exit TurboPower without power button?

So basically my wife's phone has a broken power button, with the few times it's been turned off she just plugs it into the charger to start it and it boots up, so this time it went to the TurboPower screen and now it's just stuck there because without a power button it won't turn on or go past the TurboPower screen.
So is there any other way to exit TurboPower other than the power button? I'm going to try leaving it for an hour in hopes it just leaves by itself but I have doubts that will work.

Question Deadboot problem with battery icon

Poco M3 Pro 5g
Stock rom
Locked bootloader
It was powered off for some time because I had to replace broken display
Now when I try to boot a battery icon appears and then it turns off. Same thing happen when I plug in the charger
I repair smartphones professionally so I am sure no hardware damage during the repair
Video demonstration:

I went through it. try holding the power button, connect the cable and only release after the battery shows 1%. you can try holding the power and volume + or power and volume - buttons too instead of Power button only, in the same way. alternatively, you can leave it on the charger for hours and it might turn on. Make sure you are using the supplied xiaomi charger
If I plug the cable or I plug and hold the power button the phone just tries to boot continuously showing the battery icon and then turning off and repeat, nothing really happens
Is that what is supposed to happen?

Yes, It happens. Luckily the phone will reach 1% and charge normally, keep trying
You actually saved me, it worked in the end, after some loops it booted alone, all I had to do was just let it sit there, didn't even have to keep power button all the time, once it started the loop I just left it there and when I came back it was booted.

Dead Honor Play

My device was working fine it turned off all of sudden and it wont turn on again.
There was around 70% charge remaining.
No display while I connected it to charger.
No display/Vibration while pressing power button.
No display while pressing Power + vol down/ vol up
Only The red LED is on even when it's not connected to charger. its not blinking. its steady.
When I long press the power button for around 10-15 seconds, the led turned off and on after a second. still there is no display.
I tried to keep my mobile in charge for more than 12 hours. Still not turning on.
I would appreciate any help to revive my phone.
