Any ideas for getting an NEXUS 7 to start.

The battery did go flat so I have tried leaving it to charge for minutes, hours and days, pressing the power and volume keys for hours (literally using elastic bands to try over night) in various combinations.

I have checked the battery connection.

I have taken the battery from another working Nexus 7 device and swapped it (all batteries are charged and working).

Went back round to try the charging for days and power and volume buttons.

Got a docking station and back round the routines above.

Any other ideas before I give up on it (I think I have tried all I can but just in case anyone else has had something else go wrong).

thanks
 
It sounds like you've tried pretty much everything, sorry :(

Where are you charging it from, Mains or USB?

What about trying another charger/cable combo?
 
Thanks for the suggestions, tried multiple chargers and USB charging selections, have just bought a nexus with broken screen so will swap bits till I get a working machine.
