Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Won't Charge Turn On? Here's a Fix

Got a samsung galaxy tab 3 android tablet that won't turn on or charge? Here are a few fixes to try including one very effective way of getting your tablet to start charging again. Get more details here:
Hold the power button for 10 seconds, 30 seconds or 60 seconds
Hold the power button and volume up button down together for 10 to 30 seconds
Hold the power button, home button and volume up button.
Try a trickle charge - plug the tab 3 into a computer via the usb cable instead of the wall charger hoping that the lower amp charge from the computer would fool the tablet into charging its dead battery.
The following non-invasive solution which worked for him and some others as well
Remove microsd card from its slot and then hold the power and volume up buttons for 20 seconds. Release and press power button again.
Have reported that after-market oem usb cables and chargers do not always work with the samsung tablets. Recommend always using the original samsung factory charger and cable, particularly if you are having charging problems.
You can get a 10-pack of the plastic pry tools on amazon for under $2 shipped: www.Amazon.Com - people also report decent results using an old credit card or a guitar pick.
There are a couple of other things that could be at play though: a dirty or damaged microusb port can have the same symptom. Examine the port to see if there is any sign of loose or damaged components and blow the port out with compressed air to remove any dust/dirt. The last thing is this: a defective battery will have the same symptom. A replacement battery can be purchased online for under $20.
Replacing the battery isn't that difficult once you have the back off as it is only held in place with four small screws. I would only do this as a last resort if none of the more detailed tips here work for you and only if you have not seen any damage to the charging port. The port itself can also be replaced but I would recommend getting a pro to that job.
What you'll need to do is watch this video (a how to video, you won't replace the battery, ignore the part about the screen replacement, just disconnect and reconnect battery cable), pop the back cover off the tablet, disconnect the battery cable (careful not to damage the circuit board), reconnect the battery cable, and replace the back cover. Connect the charger, within a minute the screen on the tablet will pulse/flicker which is good news, allow it to charge a while, turn on the device, shutdown the wireless wifi, click the power button to turn the screen dark again, and allow to charge for another 6 hours or till fully charged (while it's connected to wifi the background processes will affect the charge time, on a weak charger it may not even charge like from an usb port on a computer). What happened is you allowed the battery to run down till dead, on the newer android OS it seems they want the device powered on while charging instead of allowing the option to power off to charge faster (I think this way they get their metrics from us). It's a pain in the tail, but this will allow you to power back on the device without losing anything or go into developer's mode.

[@bridgman852]

Thank you, I tried all the other ways and then I tried rubbing the little prongs with the screwdriver and it came on and only showed 4 % charge. Son is very happy now.

[@tigertony2716]

Thanks - started my tablet working again after I hadn't used it for quiet a a while

[@MrVorakij]

I have same problem with Galaxy 7.7 too. @ 3.44 min. I can't see clearly position that you used screwdriver to rub it.

[@68pishta68]

just short terminals that the ribbon cable touches. This will drain capacitive voltage from the device. If it were a device that had a hard power switch like an old computer , you could just hold the power switch in for 10 seconds to drain capacitive power.

[@louise_qmb9851]

wow I'm so happy that found this video

Is it a receptacle socket of battery or not ?

[@nikkifinn1383]

hello... my Tab 3 has been dead for awhile... my hubby tried to change the battery but nothing...is it the front you are removing? He may have tried to do something from the back case--I am wondering if I could try your method or removing the front/glass side? My model is the sm-T310... thanks

[@itsniomi7923]

Same here we need some help guys😪

[@mr_floax]

Why didn't I think of this before

[@beaviccoon470]

I have this problem with my tablet but I cant remove the battery unless I cut the wires but I dont want to do that so what should I do

[@sparkyd82]

Man that thing fired right up when I unplugged the connector and plugged it back up. . I also went over the connection with a screwdriver like you showed to get a better connection. THANKS

[@sammytheclassicsonicfan4421]

The battery says 91%, 95%, or 99% for me but when I turned it on, it turns off by itself.

[@jaimecastellanos6859]

SammyTheClassicSonicFan How did you fix it?

[@GeorgeGeorge-xj2bc]

To open Tab 3 there is a risk to cause a crack to the digitizer just to pull the battery connector and then put it back to solve the charging problem is the biggest crap.Because this is not a contact problem but except charging will become a broken digitizer too.

[@mj_298]

alright ima leave it plugged in all night and i will post another comment after doing so

[@goasfarasyoucansee]

who? mike jones super i hope battery is not dead if is. Get battery off ebay. Search it only 7$ - 13$ from china, tgey all same

[@mj_298]

goasfaras youcansee it fully charged my battery but now it won't go past the yellow sprint screen when I attempt to turn it on all of a sudden

[@mj_298]

goasfaras youcansee the stuff from china dont last long.. I bought a new battery from them that shuts off when it reaches 30% lol

[@herikferdianaimade5681]

Thanks for the very useful video. It worked for me too..

[@goasfarasyoucansee]

Herik Ferdiana, I Made you are very Welcome.

[@FamilyFunIRL]

Did it keep charging after that or do you have to take the back off each time?

Chelsie Santiago no way you have to use cation do you always use thin card and pry all round before force it

[@scousewillo62]

Tried this method, but when i put the connector back on I get nothing on the screen when I plug it in. How long should you leave the connector off? just a minute or so? Very clear instructions even if it did not work for me.

[@nutta121]

It's a bit contradicting because at the start of the video we see you turn off the tab so your not really resolving the issue because you've got a working tab in the first place, seeing the charge symbol coming on will be normal if you already have a working tab in the first place!
