The power and volume buttons are broken, the tablet itself is turned off for some reason and I can't turn it on.
Is there any way to replace the buttons?
What caused the issue?
I dropped the tablet and it landed on its side, where the buttons are placed
Is this a good question?

The power and volume buttons should be able to be replaced. They are soldered to the motherboard. A guide to removing the mother board for the 1st gen Shield tablet is below.

Also below is a guide for a Shield K1 power/volume button replacement which appears very similar to repair.

I have already taken a look of those two threads. But I don't know where I can purchase a motherboard?
Thanks in advance
