Re: my hp touchpad will not turn on

I've tried holding the buttons together for over a minute, and still would not power my Touchpad.

Any other ideas?

It might take a couple of minutes. Are you sure that your Touchpad has a good charge?

Re: my hp touchpad will not turn on

Yes, it has been plugged-in for about 5 hours now.

I know the charger is working because it got warm during the first two hours of charging.

 

Any other suggestions?  Thanks.

Re: my hp touchpad will not turn on

Have u check the cable? Just in case. I had an issue with the USB cable that in certain position it will not charge. I switched the cable with my cell phone and it started to charge. Try using another cable. Crossing fingers. Btw try using the HP cable in another charging device (ie cell phone), plug in and out several times and check if stops charging momentarily.

Yes...tried this over a dozen of times.  Even as long as 3 minutes...still would not power on.

Re: my hp touchpad will not turn on

Not sure if it works cause I've never needed to try it...but I've read on some forums to try holding the power button down and pressing the Home button 15 times.  Seems a bit crazy, but there is some success with it.
