I have to take out the battery and use a battery charger which uses 2 metal sticks to charge it with the gold thingy on it but the charger is very slow and my father dropped it by accident. And my Samsung Tablet doesn’t work anymore. It all the sudden stopped working for no reason, I haven’t touched it for like 1 or 2 months and I tried opening it to see what I can do. I opened it with my finger nails since it didn’t had any adhesive (because it’s ancient) and couldn’t really do anything. Anyways, it’s ok if you can’t, I don’t need them anyway

    I had the same exact issue with my iPad mini 1st gen after installing iOS 9. Apps would crash constantly and would never actually run in the background, it would always reset when I double-click the home button and go back to it.

    I believe you can use jailbreak the iPad mini on 9.3.5 with the Phoenix jailbreak and change the iOS version with ifile or something and downgrade back to iOS 8.4.1
