Please help meh :( ( Tablet not turning on )

Few days ago, when i came back home, i saw that my Eboda XL 400 QC was running out of battery, so i decided to charge it. Everything as usual until the screen started to blink with a white color from 5 to 5 seconds ( continuosly blinking till plugged off the charger ). I checked the tiny LED light that turns on when u charge the tablet and it wasn't lighting . So i let the tablet charging like 4-5 hours and it was still blinking and not charging. I said that i should try to turn it on but the Power button wasn't working... I changed the charger and it didn't work. I tried to charge it from thr PC, the same... I pressed the Reset button, the same... I decided to let the tablet like all the night in stand-by ( simply not doing anything to it ) and next day the screen turned on for like 3-4 seconds and then started blinking again and of course, not charging :/. I had a simillary issue in the past when i gave the tablet to the service and i wish to do the same now but the warranty expired :(. I really feel bad for my tablet because i gave for it somewhere like 350$ and it's a lot for someone like me :/
 
Hello nevermind712 welcome to AF. :)

Sounds very much like you've done everything you can to try and revive it. Could be the battery has died, software corrupted, hardware fault, could be anything. Only thing you can probably do is get a repair quote from E-Boda if you say it's out of warranty. That's about all I can suggest.
 
Anyway, i found a way to solve it and it actually did work: so first i took 2 chargers ( 1 with the original DC 5V jack and the other one with the USB jack ) ; then i opened the case of the tablet and unplugged the wires that power up the display of the tablet ; then i plugged the both chargers' jacks into the tablet and left the tablet for like 2 hours charging only the battery ( i know it has no sense at all but when u'r tablet runs out of power and u try to open it, u know, it shows u that picture with a red battery that means the tablet has no power at all to boot, but in my case the battery was empty literally... i mean that empty that it couldn't even show that picture with the empty battery and i guess because of that i couldn't turn on the tablet as i said in the thread. And after i left the tablet charging 2 hours i plugged again the display's power up wires and then unplugged the charging jacks and it magically turned on. Now i have another issue :/. After a period of time the sound dissappears literally. I tried the headphones and it didn't work. It works only if u restart the tablet. I also tried a factory reset and it didn't work aswell. I think i just bought a Beta Tablet, not the released version :)
