Guest PaulOBrien Posted October 13, 2014 Report Posted October 13, 2014 Do you have a hudl2 with a broken screen perhaps that's destined for the bin? Hit me up.
Guest state-it Posted October 14, 2014 Report Posted October 14, 2014 I thought i'd woken to a broken screen this morning. But it wasn't... Black screen, thought tablet had run out of battery overnight. Plugged in to charge it, no charging LED. Tried power button several times. No luck. Tried power button + Vol up, power button & vol down several times. Eventually rebooted on a power button + vol down for a few seconds. Showed 41% battery left. Most disconcerting.

Have had exactly the same problem, has only happened once so far. Never had a problem like that with the first hudl.
Guest mbalax Posted October 15, 2014 Report Posted October 15, 2014 Same here this morning, whole thing looked dead but I didn't panic cos that comes later (after it's rooted), just left it plugged in for a bit and the LED lit up red and it booted on about 19% power . . .
Guest state-it Posted October 15, 2014 Report Posted October 15, 2014 Has happened for a second time for me. This time while listening to a podcast on iPlayer Radio. Screen went black, and the audio came out like a stuck CD. I imagine it would have gone on 'jumping' until the battery ran out of juice. Battery was at 60%, so not a low-power issue. A few minutes of power button and volume button pushing in no rememberable pattern rebooted it. Bloody annoying.

Guest state-it Posted October 15, 2014 Report Posted October 15, 2014 (edited) Sounds like it rebooted on its own. With the amount of manual intervention I gave it I think not... It got me out of my relaxing-soak-in-the-bath-after-a-long-day to address it in no uncertain terms. I managed to get it onto the 'Fastboot' screen while I was giving it hell. That surprised me.

Guest seanspotatobusiness Posted October 16, 2014 Report Posted October 16, 2014 Well this sucks. If it keeps doing it, you might start to miss calls or maybe you'll find it in this state when you really want to use it. I have to return my own due to a display problem but haven't witnessed this "playing dead" behaviour. If it keeps doing it, return it, I think.
Guest ashward Posted November 28, 2014 Report Posted November 28, 2014 (edited) Do you have a hudl2 with a broken screen perhaps that's destined for the bin? Hit me up. P My little girl dropped my Hudl 2 (slate grey) onto the tiled floor yesterday. Screen is now broken and digistiser isn't working properly either (only about 1/4 of screen registers touch). I'm wondering about repurposing it as an android media center, but what did you have in mind? Edited November 28, 2014 by ashward
