Fix RCA Tablet Doesn't Turn ON [Works in 2021]

[@chriswhitlock5915]

11 YEARS OF HAVING MINE AND ITS STILL UP AND GOING THANK YOU

[@enameless4003]

Was able to fix my daughters tablet based on this video. It'll be a happy day for her come tomorrow. Cheers mate, thanks for the info.

[@baileys.randomstuff]

How long have you had it? There might be multiple different viruses on it depending on how old it is.

[@jamessands1001]

I was literally on the verge of destroying my tablet. it would light up for a second to turn on and then turn off, even on different chargers it would do this. Thank you for the help! You saved all of my data from getting destroyed!

[@mattcasdorph]

What part helped? Cause my symptoms are exactly yours

[@jamessands1001]

I believe what I did was unplugged the battery and screen cables and held the power button for about a minute then I let it set for about 10 more minutes then reconnected everything and it started working again

[@mattcasdorph]

@@jamessands1001 I unplugged the battery for about 10-15 minutes and left the ribbon cables connected. It fixed my problem and started taking charge again. Actually using it right now..

Thank you! After a power surge my tablet wouldn’t hold charge. I opened it up, disconnected the battery for 10 minutes, put it back and let it charge for 30 minutes. Boom! My tablet is working perfectly fine! Everyone told me it was a lost cause so I am glad I still seek a way to fix it!

I never watched the full vid but is there any way to fix it I left it charging overnight and it won't turn on its been like that since 2016 not that I need it but it would be nice

[@pastelskybun]

Same problem here… I have musically downloaded on mine with pictures of me from 2016 and everything 😢 I’m thinking of going to a tech store soon❤ This is the only drawback of these decent cheap tablets

[@tammyc25]

Mine is not this exact model but it turns on, just won't stay on. Any advice?

[@MeowMimicASMR]

Hey, so- idk if you're still online/active/reply to comments but I have an RCA viking 10 tablet I'm having trouble with turning on. I tried changing the cords/boxes and that did seem to help, I noticed a blue light that at first would blink while it was plugged in but it was unresponsive when I tried to power it on. Then I found a pair that made the light stay lit instead of blinking in and out and that made it show the battery level, I'm pretty sure, so I left it for a bit to charge. It was on, like 61% so I tried turning it on and I managed to get the screen to light up and the two powering-on screens to pop up (first one being white with two dalmatians, second black w "Viking 10" in white). Now, I'm not sure if I was simply being impatient or not, but I left it for a bit (I don't know how long, honestly) so it could turn on but it never left the "Viking 10" screen. So I tried to reset it and redo whatever I'd done but I feel I somehow put myself back at step 1 😔 i tried taking the back off and unplugging the battery (and then i tried unplugging the screen) but didn't seem to do anything. I did end up leaving it disconnected for more than 10 minutes at a time, so maybe that was the problem? Maybe I didn't leave it on the charger long enough and should charge it more? Maybe none of the chargers I have work for it rn? Anymore?? I'm not sure what the problem is anymore so I'm not sure where to go/what to do to try and fix it. Any help/suggestions is appreciated

just came across your video and tried most things with no luck, want to open the case to disconnect and check the battery, I have the small screwdriver but am worried about breaking case or screen so where do I buy the plastic tool you used? someone else asked with no reply also..thanks

[@fairykel]

Thank you so much the 30 second holding worked for me!!

[@ALewis-vx6zn]

Thank you soo much. My son is happy now 😊 We needed to charge the battery for half hour. When I didn’t see a charging symbol on the screen I thought it wasn’t charging, but it was.

[@EdFanSus]

My battery connectors probably malfunctioned due to it being on for too long while plugged in. Isn't there a video with a solution on how to fix it?

[@aftermathsample305]

You're a boss bro. I plugged in USB and held power button for 30 seconds. It worked. Thumbs up for you pal!

[@aftermathsample305]

@@TiktokVideos-nh1tx it won't blow up. Just try it. Make sure the USB cable actually works charging something else, try it with a phone or something. If it works go ahead and try it with the tablet. Plug in the cable, push button for 10 seconds, count the seconds, then unplug (let go button) replug the USB and now hold power button 30 seconds. Before the 30 seconds strike you will see the screen boot up with the white battery charging icon. When that happens let go the power button and leave it charging like normal. Good luck pal. It will work. Count on it

[@bts_taekooklove_9748]

Very helpful. Thanks!

[@DavidGS66]

Warning: I tried all these steps, except disconnecting the battery because I don't have tiny screwdrivers. I remember my battery being at about 30% before my tablet died in the middle of a movie. I left tablet plugged in using plug with round jack (came with tablet) for 1 1/2 hours. I thought my tablet was dead, but when I pushed power, button, the power went on, and it was rebooted, but not factory reset. My theory is we had our 1st major rain 2 days ago, and some moisture got in my tablet, but I'm not sure. Tablet was plugged in using micro USB plug with 2 amp output when it died. Tablet says 1 amp, so I wonder if that's an issue. Love it when a problem fixes itself.

[@yolowolfyt]

Hello, The problem wasn't that you used a 2A charger. Don't worry about buying the same charger. Just see what port you need and what voltage. I have been using a 2.1A charger to my phone (my phone came with a 850mA output). The device will draw as much current as it needs.

[@mattcasdorph]

I got a problem. It doesn't want to turn on without a usb charger or wall charger. It puts a charge icon on the screen for a few seconds but then goes off. And then comes back to showing battery icon (which falsely shows full apparently). It does this in a loop until you unhook power supply. I tried to turn it on with power adapter normally and it does show RCA screen but goes off before it loads then goes back to charge icon and loops again like I first stated. Wondering if the battey is dead. Do these have lithium ion batteries, they are not supposed to have memory in the batteries? Mine is a Galileo pro

[@mattcasdorph]

Wow, had my doubts but may be actually getting somewhere after unhooking the battery and rehooking it 10-15 minutes later. It shows 5% now and keeps charging now. So hopefully in a little bit I'll be able to turn it on. Literally haven't used it for a year and a half. Think what was happening was when the battery showed full. It was cutting the charging and because the battery was dead, kept shutting off and and then trying to charge again. Im hopeful this helped and will be back to post update later

[@mattcasdorph]

Awesome, im posting this from my tablet. Thank you so much for the help

Good video. FYI, you will not get a shock from the tablet so gloves are not needed. FYI, when tearing apart something like a tablet it is recommended that a static strap be worn. Thank you for sharing

Also be careful when opening that the ribbons are not damaged.

It does turn on for me but it's just stuck on the "RockChip" screen, it can be on this screen for a few hours and then just turns off, even when charging, what can I do?

[@rockyo_fn]

You may have to Re-Flash your tablet, you will need to look up your androids model number Flash, and then you will have to download it (the Flash Files could be 100MB-2GB of file size), then you will need a SD card or Male to Male USB port and even a USB drive. You should look it up on youtube for more information.

[@isaackubicek-manggaard2148]

My Voyager Pro is responding to being plugged in, but the battery level just stays at zero. So, whenever it's plugged in, it goes between the charging screen and the insufficient battery screen. I also have to flash the stupid thing because it was stuck in fastboot mode and unable to mount any functions in recovery mode before refusing to start up altogether. These issues all popped up within a span of 24 hours. Technology hates me.
