restore power on a bricked galaxy 3 10.1 tab

greetings - - -

the firmware ideas are all great; however my 1st question is HOW DO I RESTORE POWER TO A COMPLETELY DEAD TABLET? - - there is no charging working; Ive done all the "button tricks" - - - Ive got a galaxy tab 3 that no matter what I do will not boot - - - -used all different chargers; laptop and wall; not even a beep - - - or is it a mute point and I have to return to point of sales or service center (I am willing to try anything before the last step, as I am currently in a active war zone and I will be a while before I am able to get back to where I purchased the item . . . thanks for your attention.

have you tried completely draining the battery by taping the power button on, then after a day or two trying to charge it, many people seem to have your problem, So its worth a shot. I was reading about it when i was desperately trying to figure out how to restore my tablet.

Let me know i you have questions

Did you already try another cable and wall charger adapter? Also make sure it delivers enough current. I e.g. had an iphone wall charge adapter which refused to work with my tab 3 7". I dont know why... The other one however worked fine ;)

I've sent mine in. I tried to charge it for more than 24h with the original charger of the tab and another 24h with the original charger of my nexus 4. Didn't help. It was rooted and had ketuts kernel on it.
I'm really happy that rooting doesn't completely void my warranty as I live in Germany :D

    It's the "program will install the drivers for your device" part that I can't get past. How? Thank you for attempting to help me!
    It's okay. files that will leave here, is all I can give you, download the executable file and install it on your computer, "NOTE" is not necessary to connect the device to your computer, the program will install the drivers for the device, after finish installing drivers, download and run odin, now put your tablet into download mode then press the start button, vol -, and power, when the warning message appears, press vol +, now connect the device to your computer, odin should detect your device, the rest I guess you already know to do, right ?.
