What to do if the android is lying down. Exclamation mark on the phone

What if the tablet does not turn on?

It happens that while playing games or working on the tablet, it stops working and does not turn on. The main reasons can be roughly divided into two categories: problems with the device’s hardware - these are malfunctions of the battery, connecting cables, boards, or some problems with the software - incompatibility of programs, the operating system crashed or was installed incorrectly after the update process.

3. If mechanical damage the device did not have one, a rare case - the video adapter failed.
