Likebook Mars arrived dead

likebook123 · 01-22-2021, 01:44 PM

Hello

I bought an used likebook Mars from eBay, upon arrival, it doesn't boot, then I plugged in the charger, still not boot.

I noticed there is a tiny hole on the right side of the charging port, I wonder if it's the charging light which should be on when plugged in, which is just black.

Should I let it plugged in for a longer time and try again? I wonder if its battery got drained in seller's warehouse, or it's just dead...

Thanks

Save yourself a lot of worry. Ask ebay for a refund and return it - unless of course it was advertised as faulty or not working.

I wondered was the tiny hole a reset button. It can't be a microphone? It doesn't feel like a reset button.

I ordered from Amazon DE because they have English selection and charge in Euros and no extra unexpected VAT or Customs Duty to Ireland as we both are in the EU and use the euro.
