My wife’s Samsung galaxy note 8 would not turn on. She has had it for three years and we thought it should be scrapped. I searched for this problem on line and found this site. Ordered new on off kit on e-bay. Followed these instructions. Very straight forward. Took less than 30 minutes. Reassembled and returned tablet to wife, who is very happy. Hoping for a good meal tonight! Thanks very much Joel. Martin

My Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 (wifi only) will not switch on or respond in any way to a known-good charger being plugged into it. It hasn’t had much use since new, so I don’t believe it’s a worn out battery or switch, but I tested those anyway. It will not reset, or hard-reset, and I have removed and tested the function of the power tact-switch, that that works fine. The battery reads 4.2V. I fear that I’ve bricked it. Nothing I do gives any response. Is there anything else I can try?

Worked last night, was charged, checked charger(good), replaced charge port, replaced power/volume button, replaced battery. Not a peep out of the tablet. No battery image on screen. Tried hard reset etc. Nada. What now, trash can??? Can’t see spending another 45 to 50 $$$ for mother board. Can any body prove Samsung built deliberate ob’s into the tablet. Like read the software code.
