/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Im assuming you have a usb wall plug, and a few usb cables lying around. Doesnt need to be any particular type, old printer cable will work. Im also assuming the battery is around 3.7 to 4.2 volts. This should work and wont involve taking the tablet apart.

Chop the non usb end of the cable off, strip back the shield, you can also chop the data wires cause you wont need them. Strip a little off the 5v and ground wire. Touch them to the proper terminals. There should either be a marking on the tablet or the battery indicating which is positive and negative. Connect 5v to positive and ground to negative. If it powers on you can figure it out from there, if not more than likely the battery needs to be in place for it to turn on. Do not hook your battery up to the usb cable, it could overcharge and potentially explode or cause a fire. Although, if you were to get a charge controller for your type of battery you could build an external charger for it. You may be able to find another cheap battery thats identical and have 2, so you can charge one battery while using the tablet. Otherwise an external charger will be very inconvinient instead of only mildly.

Or you could just fix the charging port, but if youre asking here about it then youll likely have difficulty with that. My idea is a quick ghetto method where youll only at worst destroy a usb cable.
