@born7 screen tearing should not be a battery issue. That is usually caused by the OS and/or memory. Try to charge your battery completely and then reset your software.

Then what would you recommend how do i run tests for bad memory or O.S. on Android or do i have to connect it a computer and factory reset it

Also how do you go about factory resetting this model of Dell Venue (5050) (Non Pro)

@born7 for a reset, this should work for your tablet. https://www.hardreset.info/devices/dell/...

now this "Battery was only holding 25% Charge" could definitely be a battery issue.
