Sorry if I'm blind but is there lights to check that it's recharging? cause I hate to turn on the power button just to see if it's fully charged.
No notification light.

I must admit. Having to turn on a device to see if its fully charged has to be the most brutal thing in the world
Just press the home button. No need to press power.

When I disconnected my phone from the charger this morning the LED did not shut down. The phone does not respond, now several hours later the green LED still is on (solid green). the buttons on the screen is lit but the screen is black. If I press and hold the power button the buttons on the screen starts to blink after a few second, but nothing happends. The same if I try to do a hard reset by pressing vol-down and pwr button. Nothin except the blinking from the buttons on screen. If I try to connect the phone to a computer nothing happends, the computer does not find the phone. If I try to call the phone notheing happends....the phone was turned on when connected to the charger.
Any idéas?
Problem solved, after2,5 hours the LED shut down and I was able to reboot the phone.
If you keep the power button held down for 10 to 15 seconds it will power off, because you can't pull the battery in this device HTC built in a power down feature to the power button

Seems I cannot find any other people asking this question
Basically I have Nook HD+ rooted and CM10.1 and it works great. I have google market on there and the original Nook OS has been sent to the nether region of hell where it belongs. So it's a pretty decent basic android tablet.
But when I let the battery go to zero and it shuts itself down, it seems that it doesn't turn back on so easily.
I'll charge it overnight and then attempt to power it on, but it doesn't do anything. I see the screen backlight come on but no "nook" logo.
So then I try plugging it back in and hold power and the "n" for 10 secs or so. I'll see the screen turn off.. I'll do that a few more times and finally I see the dead battery logo show up..even tho I charged it all night.
So then I let it charge a bit longer and try again with it still plugged in and finally it turns on.
I was just wondering if others saw this and if there was some proper method I should be using to restart it to avoid this.
Yeah, my nook was doing that same thing for a while. Now though, I let the battery die and I can't get the thing to turn on at all. No backlight lights up, no battery charge icon, the thing's led just glows green for 2 secs then flickers to orange and stays orange for a few secs and then the led turns off. No matter how long I hold the power button or the power plus nook button, nothing happens. I hope my tablet isn't dead forever. Anybody else have this problem and find a way of fixing it?

I also forget to charge mine and it got discharged. I charged it for a bit but couldn't power on. When I plugged the power cable it showed orange light. After changing the power socket and repeatedly press power button for like 7 secs it turned on with 28%. I'm Using CM10.2.

Just keep trying.. i noticed my backlight was so dim that i wasn't sure it was on either until i turned off all lights... then after holding power for like 12 secs i saw it go even darker so I know my backlight was on now.. but like you said.. no logo. Just extrem0 said.. you gotta keep playing with it, unplug it, plug it in again, etc.. it's really hokey. I've been sure to keep it charged up since my last post so I am just avoiding the problem. But it is stopping me from recommending a modded nook to my friends and family because the first time this happens they will come crying to me to help them.

I also have this problem on my Nook HD+. I don't think there is a solution for it, so I'm going for a warranty.
However, before you go for a warranty; flash the stock ROM back on. You're probably think how do I do this with no battery? Well, once your Nook boots up, your tablet will not charge at all. So, we need to charge your Nook whilst it's powered off. Again, how do I go about this? Well, turn on your Nook charger from the wall socket, but do not plug it into your Nook yet. Now, hold the power button on your Nook (ensure that your have no battery at all, and that your Nook does nothing when you hold the power button). Whilst holding the power button on your Nook, plug in your charger. It should turn green, then turn orange. It should stay like this for a while.
Give it a couple of hours, and it should charge up to around ~60% (you may be lucky if it charges more). With that much battery, put the Stock ROM back on and go for a warranty. Don't rely on this method for too long, as with time it will also stop charging with this method. At the moment, it will not charge when the Nook is turned on. Go for a warranty whilst you still can.
All the best.

Yesterday my Atrix hd just went black in the middle of text message. Ive tried to hold down the power button and volume keys. Ive tried to hold down the power button and volume up button and the power button and volume down button. Nothing worked. Tried several different charges and this still didnt work.Finally i watched a video on how to remove the battery and when i did that and plugged the phone back in the green indictor light comes on but nothing else works. I have the cynafox 4.4 rom on the phone. Is this phone fried?? Can something be done???
Your description sound like it's fried (a.k.a. hard bricked). If you can't get it to boot on (even to a black screen), I believe your phone has moved on to a better place. If so, I'm sorry for your loss

Leave it on the charger for a while, it may not have enough charge to boot. Then try the power + v salute..

My nook hd plus seems to be bricked.
My tablet is unable to power on, and even when connected to the USB charger it only have the green light and it does not turn orange even after a day of charging.
It does not seems to be a dead battery as I had charged it externally.
The tablet would become hot when I reconnect my battery to the tablet.
My tablet might had bricked as I tried to speed by installing ram manager, and my tablet was stuck when it was booting up.
After switching my tablet off, it is unable to be turn on.
What can I do to make it boot?
Green is fully charged and orange is when charging so it will not turn orange as long as it is plugged in. Try holding the power button 30 seconds wait 10 seconds and then hold it for 3 more does it turn on then?

This is a long shot. Try holding the power and "n" buttons for three to five minutes. If/when you see the backlight come on, continue to hold both buttons until the backlight goes off again. Then try to power it on normally by pressing just the power switch. What this is supposed to do is trigger the watchdog timer.
My nexus 6 doesn't turn on. This has never happened, but the green LED suddenly turned on when I plug in my phone. When I press the power button, nothing happens. When I hold the power button, the led goes away and doesn't turn on. Any suggestions?

Did you try the power buttons when the charging cable is connected and device is charging?

3 finger salute? Plug it into your computer?
If the battery is on its last legs, and fully drained, it can exhibit this behavior.
Plug the phone into a low power port like a computer usb port but not the fast charger that came with the phone. Leave it plugged in for 1-2 hours. Unplug the cable then plug it back on again. If the battery charge animation displays, then you are good to plug it into a regular fast charger.
There are times that you need to leave it plugged in for an hour, then disconnect the cable, long press the power button and it might reboot. In that case, charge it fully before attempting to use it.
