Setting Up Your Tablet
? Power
? Shut down to turn off the tablet.
II- Unplug the battery, wait 30 seconds, then install the battery again.
Odd, but try this: Some tablets do not fully shut down, even though the screen goes blank. Hold down the power button for 30 seconds, wait 15 seconds, and then try again to power up (hold power button for 3-5 seconds). Wait patiently for the power up, as power after factory reset may take longer than a 'typical' start-up. Good luck!
You maybe able to RESET the tablet. There maybe a pinhole RESET button on the back of the tablet. Insert a straighten paper clip into the pinhole RESET button to reset the tablet.
A pinkish tint is indication that the backlight tube inside the screen is not fully lit. But then it goes black - meaning the tube shut down? That part don't make much sense - it's certainly possible, though.
Replacing tubes is pretty surgical so I wouldn't recommend it. Replacing the screen should be pretty darn easy. A good, used screen should be pretty cheap on eBay, so that's where I'd start.
