Ah shit I think the Battery on my old Wacom tablet is broken. Its already was really empty while I install the new OS and didn&#39;t really show the charging but I was first thinking maybe an error and just dont show it right and I know the cable works. Its still charge my phone too. So its not the cable and I was wanting to work on it Dx Now the tablet is out because of the empty Battery. I was so happy that I could bring it to live again just to see that its die again because of the Battery... So I need to wait for a new cable for XP Pen and need to order a new Battery for Wacom x.x

The only thing I could do to test if the pen works was a bad scribble x.x Its so frustrating when everything finally works perfect and you want to do something and then its just say no. To be fair the tablet is over 6 years old and since I never opened it before, but my father helped me to open it, I could see how much dust is inside. Its not easy to open so I had never clean it inside. Maybe a reason why the tablet was so loud o.o I hope a new Battery helps and everything works then again. I was so proud that I could fix it with the secure boot and get it to work and now I am totally down and sad :/

@fennek@bark.lgbt It is possible to bring a battery back to life if it simply died from discharging, but it is a very delicate process that I am not good at and don't feel confident in explaining.
