I just grabbed a random ac adapter that fit this device. The charging light turned on, but the tablet didn't charge. Should I try a more powerful one?

I'm not sure to be honest. This item stopped working and can't charge my tablet right now.

Just plug it into the power supply outlet on the bottom of the tablet. Make sure the word "Samsung" on the adapter is facing forward towards you. Look in the "files" app and look for external drive. I have been using the adapter for some time and it works fine.

Yes, I used the adapter that came with my tablet. You can also use any usb port to charge the tablet as well because I have and it hasn't seemed to bother it.

Only adapter that works based on forums is the one from Acer. Since it is a micro USB that is actually longer at the tip go with the one from Acer. There are too many people complaining about purchasing chargers for this tablet that do not work.

I wish I knew. My only thought is that maybe it won't charge because something is wrong with the tablet ... Or if it doesn't fit maybe its the wrong model. Wish I could help but don't really have an answer ... Is it possible the new cable is defective?

I do not own either, but I see no reason why any USB device couldn't be charged using this device. It works on my tablet, phone, e-cigs, and MP3 player. To charge my phone the phone has to be off (otherwise it tries to boot from the USB). That applies to the tablet, as well. If your charging cable ends in an USB it will likely charge. If you have difficulty charging, try turning it off. I've found that it will fully charge my tablet once OR charge all my other devices (2 e-cigs 1300's, phone and MP3 player) once.

Mine did not work at all. My tablet was brand new and thought something was wrong with it, It turns out the adapter didn't work. I wound up getting a micro HDMI cable instead of the adapter. The connectors are kinda flimsy and havind the weight of a full size HDMI on it seemed to put undue stress on the connector. If your device has a micro HDMI port an adapter such as this should work.

I gave this tablet to my god-daughter, and the same thing happened to her. I bought a new wall power adaptor, but that didn't solve the problem either. Sorry, can't help. Next purchase will be a different, higher quality brand.

I bought this tablet for my mom. She had the same issue. We ordered her one and its on its way. At this moment her tablet wont stay tho it says its charged. Hoping the new charger will help.

A friend tried to charge their tablet and it didn't charge it about 25%. I would look at a bigger one personally.

Hi Sharon I really have no idea if that charged will work for that tablet I have had a few tablets I Boughy without chargers a few were pretty obscure brands I would search for "charger for (the tablet u have)" If that doesn't work I recommend going to radio shack or Fry's and finding a universal charger or ordering a universal say maybe a rocket fish that will come with multiple tips

I noticed before buying the Contixo 10 inch Android tablet that one reviewer said the AC adapter was cheaply made, which was true, so ahead of time I went and bought one for $7.99 on Amazon. Here is the link to it - its might be that your AC adapter is defective: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FOLHKEY/?tag=googhydr-20&hvadid=51965023000&hvpos=1t1&hvexid=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=6314878453467084766&hvpone=7.99&hvptwo=&hvqmt=b&hvdev=c&ref=pd_sl_4s8x14zmza_b When I bought it, it took a long time - a day - to charge it the first time... Hope that helps.

Hello: Oh yes, I think I can help you. I did not like the adapter that came with the tablet, below was my search & purchase. Key features are: 3.5 mm plug & 2000mA (AC Power Adapter for 3.5mm DC 5V 2000mA Output Supply for External Devices) After receiving your needed item, let me know how how I did, "You Are The Man" will do just fine. Good luck

The AC adapter has a barrel plug output. Insert the plug into the smaller round hole (not the larger one for earphone) to recharge the tablet. Make sure you push the plug all the way in until you hear a 'click'.
