Hi.can u help me.my asus fonepad7 when i charged it will appear the battery sign & have vibration after than the screen will turn black.thanks
Hi, are you charge it when the phone at OFF positions? Please try to turn ON your Asus Fonepad 7 and charge again your tablet. If you can not charge it when the phone at ON positions, then maybe you should try to charge with different charger to make sure your charger still OK, but you need to use the same specification for Asus Fonepad 7 charger to try. Better with the same charger as Asus Fonepad 7 charger (other charger).
My Asus fonepad is working bit slow, when i move the pattern it takes time to open and sliding is bit slow, please help me out and my fonepad internal memory is filled with 6gb only and its 16gb internal memory then also slow.
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.
