Introduction

My solution was: i remove the back of my tablet, i disconect all the sockets and put the charger on it for 10 minutes. Then i connect just the socket near the middle of the tabket between battery and metalic protection, and wait. After few seconds the battery apear and the charger works. I wait about 5 minutes and after that i connect the rest of the sockets disconected. All of that was doing with the charger connected. After the battery was 100% i put on the back of my tablet and press the power button. It work ok without any problems. In the future never let the battery to reach at 5%. Godluck to all!!?

I had the same problem with this tablet.

Original charger didn’t work, battery symbol appeared and disappeared again and again.

I fixed it in a quite simple way without opening the device.

I remembered that I got a bad charger, very bad, so bad that a conected smartphone won’t even work properly, as there is so much high frequency noise on the 5V-output. By means of this noise this very-very-bad charger put the needed extra-portion of energy into the battery, that the device was able to get behind this critical point at startup, that made it switch off before, and charging could be finished with a proper charger.

Problem: solved!

Are you saying replacing the charger fixed the issue for you? Or are you saying temporarily using a better charger to get the battery above 5% and then using any charger after that to finish the job fixed the issue?
