I am not saying this will work for everyone, but my particular device, this is what I have to do every time the battery dies. So make sure your Nexus 7 never gets too low!

Here are the steps summed up that I covered in the video.
1)Plug into computer or USB outlet, if you have the original charger it came with, that is best. Let it charge for several hours, do not touch it! If the screen is flashing, that is okay.
2)Try to turn it on. Try different methods. Try holding the power button down with it plugged in, try without it plugged in, try holding it down as your plugging it in. You get the idea, just try every possible way. If you are lucky like me, you will finally see a charging icon, this means the device is finally pulling in power!
3)After you see the charging icon, let it be for a little bit, then try to turn it on. It should boot up just fine. Now, when you are not using the device, put it in airplane mode, so that battery doesn't die too fast, or just always leave it on the charger, this is a known issue with the 2012 nexus, and it is a pain! But this is the bet fix for this problem.
Maybe you can possibly get someones "bad" device for really cheap and use this method and bring it back to life!

R.I.P Nexus 7. He served great deeds and worked well while he was alive! May god bless him. In memory of Nexus John 7. May he rest in eternal peace. God bless america!
I'm so glad I found your video, followed what you said and now my tablet is back on. I'd lost all hope so thank you!!!!
Having tried most of the other fixes to no avail, I did this for 10 minutes, and et voila, powered on! Thanks so much for this video, JJ
Holy smokes this actually worked! I have left it in dust for at least 4 years!

MY NEXUS WORKED AGAIN TODAY I WAS SO SO HAPPY I MADE A VIDEO ABOUT IT
OMG YOURE ACTUALLY A LIFE SAVER! FIRST TIME EVER AN AMAZING TUTORIAL ACTUALLY WORKED!!
I was wondering if I should be looking for a power indicator light, telling me if it was charging or something, so this video helped. It had been too long and all I remembered is that it was a pain to charge from dead and my charger is long fried. Sometimes we need something simple, and don't want to dig through thick manuals or irrelevant search results to find it. So, thanks for sharing!
This tip worked for me even today after I fixed the USB Charger on my ASUS (with a new charger component) and started to bring it alive again. Thanks
My 2012 model ME37OT has died, I tried hammering down the microUSB 2.0 unit inside the tablet, because it had a loose zip, and when I plugged in the microUSB, the tablet wouldn't charge. PLEASE REPLY!
This is DEFINITELY A FIX!! My sons each had a nexus 7, and this happened to both of them! I have done this on one now and it worked... on to the second! (although we already replaced one of my sons because even the "Geek Squad" at Best Buy told me it was NO GOOD. :-( (But it was doing exactly this same thing as my other sons). So I am hopeful it will work as well. Thank you sooooo much for saving me the money of having to buy another one!! YOU ROCK!!!
WOW! You were absolutely right about this. I can confirm that this also applies to the Nexus 9 & 10.
tnx bro it works. you may use power bank with led indicator to see if your nexus is charging or not.
i was about to open up my device thinking it was something wrong with the hardware until i saw this video. Saved me the trouble!

Adeniyi Ibitoye I tried opening mine after 4+ years of no life signs. Turns out the charging port was split in half at the top. Replaced charger board, still no life. I just want my old files back
Can't wait to try this on my Nexus 7. Thank you so much for this video!!
This still works! I have a 2013 Gen 2 Nexus 7. Purchased in 2013 with original battery.
Followed instructions to letter....worked a treat thank you! :)
Ok this actually helped. I haven't used my nexus 7 for over 2 years cause I was never able to turn it on. And thanks to this video it did.

Nam Phan same here! Haven't used my Nexus in over 2 years, just chucked it in the drawer then realised I wanted to use it again, then this lovely video comes up.
Yesterday was te deadline for my Nexus7, because I could not use it anymore. It was TOO slow. I wanted to crash it and throw it away. An Angel must have shown me your video and now my tablet works again. I thank you and the Angel very much.
so the point is leave it for like how many hrs? and again unplug it and plug it long press the power button is that it? plz reply
After reading these comments, I'm having high hopes that this might work. Thanks for this video!! I'm gonna be trying it out on mine, and it hasn't been turned on in like 3 yrs. Having good hopes that it works Edit: Bc of my impatience, I tried to turn it on after plugging it for 50 mins. No sign of life, and the screen stopped flashing. I'm just leaving it to charge Edit #2: OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH, IT BOOTED UP THANK YOU, THANK YOU
Thanks your tips helped massively. Nexus now charging
mine is engage 7+ starmobile and it charge, the screen turns on saying it charge but when I click the power button nothing happened please make video for that..
the power plugs all seem to be loose. not fitting into the outlet on the tablet properly to charge. can this be fixed?

I have a nexus 7 and I don't know if this would work since I took apart the inside and reconnected everything.
KZread helps me with all my problems 😂👌
OMG! I tried it with my nexus 9 and it worked! Thanks for this video!!!
Must going to standby mode like the Bose color bluetooth speakers ...I have two of them and I can't get them to come on anymore... they both went dead and I can't get them to come back on and I've tried everything
Obviously the one animation means it's charging, but I THINK when you saw just the battery icon outline, the firmware is telling you the battery is so flat that it cannot support booting. As you saw, after the remove-power-reconnect-within-10-seconds trick, if you let it charge for a few hours, you should be good to go. The only thing which might prevent that is if the battery is end-of-life, and won't hold a charge no matter WHAT is done to it. The visuals are fairly good, but I wish each of those conditions were clearly documented somewhere prominent so we wouldn't have to guess.
What am I supposed to do if it says "21 hours untill charged". Is it better to replace the battery?
I don't know how or why but this actually worked. thanks alot man.
Yes! Finally! I had to hold it down for like 2 minutes
this is the mooooost helpful vid ive found about this thanks for the help i cant wait to get my games back peace out

Simple, but effective! :)
This definitely has gave me hope to have mine hopefully turn on! I haven’t touched mine in like forever because of the charging issues like you mentioned and that’s when it was running a lot more when I was actually using the tablet. Plus this thing is like my baby. It was one of my very first electronics I have ever owned!
So, for me plugging it into a higher output charger did the trick. In my case a huawei 35w fast charger. I'd imagine it would work too with an equivalent Samsung or other model.
Thanks really helped me with my nexus 4 phone
It worked den i tried to reset it now im back @ square one........damn😲
thanks that helped me after I bought my new phone I stopped using mine as much
I need my Nexus for my 3DR drone, fingers crossed this works!
what happen whe it has a little lock on the screen ??
It works!!!!!!! I borrowed my friend's tablet and it ran out of battery. I thought it would be a simple case of putting it in my phone charger but oh no! Thanks for the video, I have the battery charging icon now after getting 5 flashing lights for 3 hours!

can someone help me .My nexus 7 can't charge even after 24 hrs can someone tell me why
i tried charging it for 5 hours still no sign of it working does anybody have any advice
THIS IS AWSOME!!! It works took a while but def worth it! Mom said if I turned it on I could keep it! Lol😂 Thank you so much!!💙💙
Anyone know a fix for my Nexus 7 2012 - have got it charged fine but the booting up screen doesn't get past the animated colour dots. Hadn't use in a good 18months or so and it did take a couple minutes at the time to boot up but have left this for hours and doesn't progress beyond that point. It's not frozen as the 4 coloured dots animation plays fine. Have done multiple soft resets to no luck. Should I restart the bootloader? I'm reluctant to hard reset/factory wipe it but will as a last resort. Thanks

Its possible that android system could be corrupted somehow just download nexus root toolkit on PC and either flash stock android I'd recommended any version of android 4 don't try android 5 as it kills the device
i hope this will work without my charger that came with this tablet :)
Very helpful video cheers mate
How is this a video to fix it or get one that won't charge at all, to work?
Mine is stuck on 4 coloured dots. I've tried a factory reset, delete cache, nothing gets it off the coloured dot screen. Anyone know how to fix it.?

Thanks very nearly went to jump start the battery. But percerveid and charged it for 2 hours and then unplugged the sub cable and plugged it back in while holding down the volume up key and power key. My nexus 7 had been off for nearly a year and I had just replaced the usb charging port myself.

If plugging it into the wall socket does not appear to be working, try plugging it into the USB port on your computer. You will immediately see it start to charge back up...

My mom got me one for my 16th birthday before she passed away i just found it cracked screed didnt wanna charge but honestly im gonna tear it apart and buy a new batter and screen or pay up the butt to send it in and get it repaired has sentimental value have had it for 10 years im sure i have videos and pictures of me and her so hoping i can get it going.
100% works with me, thank you :o)
Thank you!
Hey Jeremy from 2014, thanks for your tip!
Thank bro. It is working again
Had my Nexus 7 2012 for 3 years and replaced the board and battery recently (the old board was an 8GB model and the one I have is 32GB, used, and the new battery is the same spec as the old one). Then, when I was watching my shows on my tablet, the battery died and I forgot to bring my charger. Went to CVS on my break and bought a Micro USB cable, 2.1A charger, and a 3-prong extension cord.
Bro, you're an absolute legend! It worked! :DD
Press the volume down button and power button at the same time for a few seconds. You should see the bootloader menu with the android show up.
Thanks, worked for me too!
Worked for me. Thanks Jeremy.
thank u so much for this! i hope this work! :D
It worked but I had to hold the button down for so long
Got a game that I guess overrides the charging, so the charge went down while charging and now I can't turn it on to delete the game.
Omg it’s worked I was going to get rid of his tablet thank you you are a life saver
thank you!!
it works, but I got stuck on the x screen as it was turning on

If your original nexus 7 (2012) is slow clear update cache and run lagfix trimmer but if it does not work then download nexus root toolkit and example USB debuuging on device and also click USB charging to USB file transfer if ur turned off or in bootloop then no need for USB debugging or changing from charging to file transfer also I recommend downloading custom aosp ROM i would say omni ROM or slimkat but no android 5 ROMs nexus root toolkit unlocks boot loader and backups data eg NANDroid backup if your choosing custom ROM I would go to XDA for this or if normal stock ROM search stockromfiles nexus 7 WiFi (not 2013) just nexus 7 WiFi and try 4.2 or 4.3 or 4.4 if ur using Stock ROM click flash stock unroot and u can browse your own file (for some reason the built in downloaded er doesn't work) if ur choosing custom ROM GOTO advanced settings or something then click flash custom ROM or something and find your own ROM where you saved it eg download Also don't download nexus root toolkit (NRT) from sketchy sites try real ones like softpedia or wugfresh site If u don't understand this very long comment watch a video about this
