Dell Chromebook 3100: Why isn't my chromebook turning on?

Thu, 04 Apr 2024 14:30:08 -0700

My Chromebook has failed to turn on. The charging light turns on but the screen is black and it fails to respond. I have replaced the screen as that is what I thought the initial problem was. I have also tried hard resetting it and trying to force it to turn on. Someone recommended plugging it in without the battery, but that also failed. Is there anything else I can try or something I am not considering? I looked at the rest of the parts and they seemed fine.

Whenever I open the laptop, it won't turn on unless it is plugged in. When it is plugged in, the display just flashes white and off on like 1-second intervals.

Dell Chromebook 3100: 2024 Dell Chromebook 3120 read-write protection bypass not working

Mon, 04 Nov 2024 08:45:29 -0700

Hi there!

We have the new 2024 Dell Chromebook 3120 (link here) for our school district.

Our team usually handles Chromebook repairs, and in the past, we’ve been able to enable to bypass the read-write protection on all models without any issues.

However, we’re having trouble with the 3120 model. We tried following the process we used successfully on the previous Chromebook 3110 model, even putting the device in developer mode and attempting to disable it manually in CROSH, but no luck so far.

Here’s the process we used for the 3110 model, which doesn’t seem to be working for the 3120.

Is there a new process we should follow for the 3120?

Thanks so much for any guidance you can offer!
