Charging time
Hi all! I wanted to ask..What is a normal amount of time to charge the tablet?
Sometimes I leave the target in "sleep" mode and it takes forever to charge.
Yesterday I shut the tablet off and then plugged the charger in and it fully charged in 1/2 the time!
So is the best thing to do is charge the tablet when it is off?

In normal sleep mode (screen off but not powered off) it takes 2.5 - 3 hrs. Get Battery Doctor and watch it rapid, then slow, then trickle charge. Cool animation whilst charging as well.

Well sometimes when it is in sleep mode it charges fast. When I go to check what charge level it is at it tell me for example 60%..then I will check again in one hour and its at 61%. One time I left it charging for over 10 hours and it only reached 80%. I just wonder if I am doing something wrong? This last time I charged it while the tablet was off and it charged in 3-4 hours.

You might have a flaky USB cable. If you have another micro-USB try that one.

I am having the same issue. Sleep mode takes 14 hours to charge from near dead. 10 hours to charge from 25%.
I also noticed the wifi is staying on when in sleep mode even though It is supposed to disconnect when sleep.
Think this could be a firmware issue.

I think I figured out a possible solution. So now I don't just plug in the charger right away. Before I plug it in I push the power button to put the tablet in standby mode and then I plug it in. I use my tablet with a case so I don't cover it. I installed an app called DashClock and I am able to now see an update of the charge without touching my tablet. So this way I noticed the tablet charges in about 5 hours from almost 1-2% power. If I notice that after 30 minutes it has not charged any reasonable amount then I unplug the charger from the wall and then plug it back in. Works then ok.

That's interesting, i was able to charge it to 21% in the last 1h 20m While using it. Screen at 15-20% smart saving on, WiFi on everything else off.
Are you using the factory charger? If so you have some issues somewhere.
Can you try it using a different 2A charger ? and/or USB cable ?

Purchased for Husband the MeMo Pad FHD 10" .
I find it most annoying that this tablet does not have the Led Light which indicates the charging status (Red to Green).
Apart from checking the info area or installing a special app is there a quick way to check the charging situation ?
As for an App for this purpose - is there a recommended one ?

I just got my tablet, I was very worried about the charging behavior of it. Seems it will not charge or even hold a charge while being used. The battery percentage still goes down when using the tablet with it plugged in.

That's definitely a sign you need to return it right away. If it's not working right out if the box then something's wrong.
