I left my streak powered on over night and when i got up this morning the battery was @ 69%. So i started checking e-mail, facebook, twitter, ect. Put the tablet down to get ready for my day, and about 30min later picked up the tablet and it would not power up....anyone has any ideas. I plug it unto the wall charged no light indicator come on or anything:confused::confused:

Open the sd/sim card slot and to the left of the sd there is a tiny pin hole get a needle and press it. Its a force off. Maybe something locked up. I left mine on allcday tje other day and got home it was dead and would not turn on until it had about 3% charge. Hopefully the force reset works for ya.

I had the same problem but my home button light stayed on, I try to reset but nothing happen. I took it back to T Mobile and they couldnt figure out why it didnt boot up, so they replaced it.

You may want back-up some personal data and do a factor reset on data (not data and internal storage).

Mine never freeze up after I did that.

Is anyone having a continuing problem after a factory reset? I am awaiting delivery of my S7, and I would like to know if I should just go ahead and do a factory reset after opening, or maybe wait for the issue to occur and do some troubleshooting to help figure out the fault...

Mine did that but all I had to do is leave it charging for a few mins and if you use another adapter I was using the one from my mytouch4g it will not charge right and will not start up when battery is dead. next time just let it charge or do not let it go dead.

Don't do it until you hit a problem.

So now I have 3 DS7 WiFi in my circle.
One has Froyo 2.2.2 no problems.
The other two are running 3.2 and have repeatedly frozen. And continue to freeze requiring pin hole reset, despite having been factory reset.
Is this an issue with 3.2? Is it going to get worse?
Thanks for your input
Peace
