Hi Jack,
Is the charger a genuine Ainol 12v 2A?
Can you confirm the charger isn't at fault?
Do the the tablets power up when the charger is plugged in?

They definitely have to have that rating. Also some people mistakenly think the Hero can be charged through the USB port, which it can not.

If I've helped you set-up your new tablet, unbrick your device or if you use and enjoy my Cortex A9 ROM's

Tried different chargers too, plugged in the tablets for 12 hours and nothing happened :/

Have you tried the fix described in this post?

Abit of advice though, do take your time opening up the Hero. It will take a lot longer to repair a broken screen!

Using a credit card (or guitar pick) like I demonstrate in this video works for the Ainol Hero as well and you are less likely to break something than if you tried to use a flat head screwdriver.

@ fuser-invent - Nice video Benjamin :good:

Shame it'll get lost in this topic just like the other golden nuggets of information scattered all over the forum! <_<
