Data recovery from broken dead Android tablet?

[mikehende]

I have never worked on a tablet before, can anyone tell me how to recover data from this HP Touchpad's HDD please? Far as the owner knows, it powers on but no video.

Have you tried connecting the tablet to a computer via mini-hdmi/usb port, Mike?

Using my cable, no power to the tablet, I am waiting for the cousin to bring his cord.

Yeah, it may have to be charged for you to be able to access it.
