Linsay Tablet won't turn on

No matter what you do, you can't get your tablet to turn on.

Dead/bad battery

If your tablet won't turn on, plug the tablet and charger into a power source. If battery will not charge, purchase new battery. The guide to replace your battery can be found here.

Bad display

It is possible that it appears nothing is happening because the backlight is broken. If this is the issue, the backlight must be replaced.

Bad audio quality

Sound will not play or will not play well from the tablet speaker.

Volume is low/muted

It is possible that the volume controls are turned low or off, use the volume button to adjust speaker volume.

Blown out speaker

If sound will not play from the tablet speaker, the problem could be fixed by replacing the speaker.

Broken/cracked screen

The screen of the tablet is shattered or cracked.

Cracked Screen

If your tablet screen is cracked or shattered, replacing the glass screen would fix the problem. The guide to replace your screen can be found here.

Bought 3 of these last week and 2 of them don't work. I am not going to pay more money to have someone look at it. Pretty sad that they won't work after 1 week

I bought a Lindsay F-10XHD tablet for my grandson and since we have had it the screen comes on after trying it numerous times. Sometimes won't even come on. Then the volume u can barely hear. Very aggravated with this product!!

My Lindsay turns on but it won't still click on to main screen. I tried to reset as instructed that doesn't work.

I have only had my table for about 1 week. I turned it off and now when it boots back up only 6 of the 9 dots appear on the screen for me to draw the security design to open the tablet. I have pushed the reset button, restarted it and powered it off and it keeps doing the same thing
