My sons acre tab 1021 made a strange loud beep the other day, it restarted and seemed to be working fine. Now a few days later it won’t charge past 1%, has it died or just needing a new charger? Tia

    Hi @ Rapflowers
    1. Switch off the tablet at first.
    2. Then, select the ‘Power key’ and the ‘Upper Volume Locker key’ for 3 seconds.
    3. Now, slowly release the finger from the ‘Power key’.
    4. Then on the select boot page, select choose the appropriate option with the ‘Volume lockers’ and the ‘Power Key’.
    5. Next, select ‘SD Image Update Mode’.
    6. Then, choose the option ‘wipe data/factory reset’ to rest the tablet.
    7. Now, select the option ‘Yes’ to delete all the information and the data from the tablet.
    8. Select the option ‘Reboot system now’.
    9. Thus, your system will restart.

    Hi, I tried to do this, wasn’t sure what option to choose on reboot. I went with fastboot I think 🤔 
    then it froze on the screen for a few hours. I found the reset button you use with a pin, it seems to be working and charging ok now. Thank you you for your help 👍😃

    Aledphilips Tbh I’m not entirely sure what it was that I did to make it work. It’s still very temperamental over charging and that is my next job, to source a new charger.
