Hi OtttO

Welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.

Have you tried holding down the Power key and the Volume Up key together for 10 seconds, once this has been done put the Tablet on to charge for about an hour and then try power it on.

Let us know how you get on.

I've done that , kept it charging til the led turned green that mean above 90% charged and I've turned it on it remained on for less than 40 seconds. I've done the hard reset after that same problem

Have you tried to power on your Tablet Z without SD- and SIM-card (if you have the LTE version) to see if you experience the same behaviour? If the same thing occurs and you also have tried a software repair via PC Companion, you would do best by visiting nearest service center to have your unit examined by a technician.
