    • Hi, Asus Fonepad 7 should work fine to charge if the hardware does not have problem. Usually if the battery totally empty, it will need about 5 or 10 minutes charge time before you can turn it on. You can try to charge 30 minutes, and try to make it On by pressing power button several second.

      If your Asus still can not on, we can try to do this step: Charge your Asus Fonepad about 1 hour or more, after that try to do Option 2 above step to do hard reset or master format Asus Fonepad 7 with hardware key.

      • Hi, basically at normal conditions we can not revert back our Android operating system to lower version, because some data already upgrade and has been change. When doing official upgrade or update at Asus Fonepad 7, the firmware will do the process without need to remove any important data and some installed applications still can be use without need to reinstall again. Maybe we still can downgrade our Android operating system, but this step usually will remove anything, and install from the beginning.

        This is what should you do when Asus Fonepad become problem or not working properly after upgrade to newer Android version. Some applications that we have installed before might not compatible or need to refresh after doing upgrade the firmware. Please try to remove it and reinstall again from Google Play Store. If you still get the same problem, then maybe you should consider to do hard reset or master format to clean up some wrong setting from previous Android version. After hard reset, you should resetting again from beginning.

        Reply
    • Hi, first you need to make sure is that any specific applications that make your Asus Fonepad screen become problems. If you already detect that applications, try to do uninstall. If you are not sure about which applications, you can try to do hard reset or master format first to make sure this problem come from hardware or software. If after doing hard reset the problem still happen, then the problem comes from hardware, you need to bring your Asus Fonepad to nearest Asus service center.

    • Hi, first you have to make sure the Internet connection is connect properly and running good. If you are using GSM to download, you may try to use WiFi Internet connection to make sure the problem is not come from the GSM connection. Usually if you have problem with Internet then the download and video connection should not work properly as well.

If you still get problem, then you should try to hard reset with options steps above, then try to use your Asus Fonepad 7 tablet to take pictures and connect to Internet again.

        Reply
        • Hi, basically the 16GB will be devide into internal memory for system and the other for save the data as virtual sdcard, also some space already use for installed OS + applications, therefore you will find only 6GB left for internal memory. If you phone become slow, it could be happen because too many applications run in the background. Some applications that you install from Google Play Store will keep run in the background without any notice to wait for some command or data update. If there are too many applications run in the background, then your Asus Fonepad will become slowly because of limited RAM and processor resource. Please find that applications and uninstall it. If you can not find that applications and need to make your Asus Fonepad performance become faster again, then you should consider to do hard reset. But please do not forget to do backup before doing hard reset, because all internal data and installed applications will be removed or wipe.

  22. Sir. I owned ASUS fonepad 7 with dual sim. With jelly bean OS. Im having problem wih my tablet. It cannot turn on. It happened after im woke up, and found my tablet over heat (its really hot). I even not plugged in the charger on it. Im aware of what will happens next. Scare of something turn whorst then Im turning it off, but after several minutes i try to turn it on it cannot charging at that time till now, the battery kept decreasing even i plugged in the charger. I did hard reset, format factory. It cannot turn on . I wait about an hour it doesnt want to turn on. Usually it doesnt take time so long. So i did other option, using fastboot command entering bootdroid provision OS. I choose recovery and still cannot turning on. Sometimes my tablet showing USB logo (thing like trisula) with red bar on below that sign when i press the power button. Could u help me knowing what problems on my tablet and give me solution or advice ?

    • Hi, the tablet can become very hot when one or some applications getting problem and always working hard, this conditions can make the processor resources become high load and make the tablet become very hot. Some situations like this happen after the user make non standard steps like doing root and make overclock the processor. That non standard procedure can hurt the processor and the worst case is damage. We are suggest to bring your Asus Fonepad 7 to Asus authorize service center for further check

    • Hi, unfortunately you can not bypass or unlock forgotten security protection at Asus Fonepad 7 if you never signed in at Google account when the first time using this tablet. The only solutions to bypass or unlock your Asus Fonepad 7 is with hard reset or reformat using steps at #Option 2 above. Just for other possibility, you also can remove the external memory card at your Asus Fonepad 7 and read your microSD card with card reader using computer, hopefully you still have some important data at your microSD card.

    • Hi, you can try to use other memory card just to make sure this problems not come from your memory card. However, if the problems still happen, you can consider to do hard reset to restore all setting back to factory default at your Asus Fonepad 7. But do not forget to do backup all important data and we recommend to remove the microSD card as well before doing hard reset

    • Hi, any installation from Google Play Store or manual APK files will by default install it at internal memory. Some applications maybe can separate their installation files like games, they will install main applications at internal memory and data files at external memory.

    • Hi, sorry we do not understand about what kind of cordless hidden camera that you mean. Howeever, if your external device have ability to connect using Bluetooth or Wifi then please make sure that device can work at Android or web browser. Usually Asus Fonepad 7 can work with that.

    • Hi, doing update using OTA at Asus Fonepad is very easy, just follow the menu information and update will be finish at several minutes. However, this is different with downgrade, because basically downgrade can not do using OTA or using same steps with upgrade, you should do some non standard steps and this is not recommended. If your Asus Fonepad 7 still get trouble after doing update firmware, then we suggest you do hard reset or reformat to factory default and reinstall some needed new version applications from Google Play Store, sometime previous installed applications not compatible with new firmware update.

    • Hi, maybe the hard reset or reformat process does not work properly at your tablet, please try to do it one more time and after finish doing hard reset, do not login with any account.

    • Hi, usually if you have already choose and set as default for swiftkey keyboard input at your Asus Fonepad, then it will not back to Asus factory default again. You have to make sure the Asus default keyboard is not choose at all at Setting menu. Just give select option only for Swiftkey keyboard applications at your setting menu.

Please try to do hard reset again one more time using hardware button combination key at your Asus Fonepad 7, and after hard reset finish, please do not sign in with any account. Just try to use Fonepad 7 to browsing the Internet or using factory default applications. After everything runs properly, then you can try to sign in again.
