You can do a factory reset via the settings menu. Look for a 'Backup and Reset' entry.

Take a flat object like a butter knife, start near a corner and pop the back cover loose...then work your way around removing the cover, pull the battery out, press and hold the power button for a few seconds, put the battery back in, put the cover back on, turn the tablet back on.

Perform a soft or hard reset on your Asus Eee Pad Transformer Android tablet if it is not functioning correctly. Here's how.

Soft Reset

You would want to soft reset the device in the event that it has become frozen or unresponsive. To do so, press and hold the Power button on the top-left side of the device for about 10 seconds until the device powers off.

Hard Reset

A hard reset (also known as a factory reset) will clear all data and settings from the memory of the device and set it back to factory default settings. You can perform hard reset on the Asus Eee Pad using the Android OS menus or the hardware buttons.
Method 1 1. Power the Eee Pad off.
2. Press and hold the Volume Down button on the left side of the device, then press and hold the Power button.
3. Continue to hold both buttons until a bootloader screen appears.
4. Wait for the prompt that says to "Press <VOL_UP>" then press the Volume Up button to start the process.
The Asus Eee Pad will complete the hard reset process and reboot into a factory default state.
Method 2 1. Open the Settings app.
2. Select Privacy.
3. Choose Factory data reset.
4. Select Erase tablet.
5. Select Erase everything.

Ah ASUS. I have a Memo 10. Had the same problem when it was 6 days new. Asus has a UI that is bad.

1. First try to charge via USB to your computer. If you get any result good, leave it a bit.

2. Leave it plugged in and see if it will turn on. If you can get it to turn on ... do this.

3. Find the back up and restore/factory reset. Back up your data, pics, music. etc.

4. Do a factory reset... it will say everything of yours will be delted. Proceed.

5. Restart the tablet.

6. Go into settings and TURN OFF Asus's UI. On my Memo 10, under settings is a menu called "Asus Customized settings" in the sub-menu turn OFF "Use ASUS Quick Setting" yours may say something a bit different.

7. Restart. The look will be different but no worries. On the upper right see if your tablet it charging. It will be a battery with green and black and a lightening bolt in it. If it is charging try your wall wart charger.

Good luck!

I called Asus. Told to connect charger & hold volume up & power for 40 seconds. Nothing happened, then press power & volume down. Nothing happened. Then told to hold volume up & power for 60 seconds, and it should come on, which it did.

This is a common problem with Asus devices. If the battery has drained completely, they don't like to come back to life.

Plug it in and leave it for a minute or so. Unplug the device, replug it, and hit the power button. The battery logo should appear, indicating that the device is powered off and connected to a charger. Now that the computer is awake (to display the message), hold the power button until the device powers up. You may have to hold the button down for up to 45 seconds.

Try hard reset?

You will need to do a factory reset:
1. With the device off, press and hold Volume Up and Power.
2. Release the Power button when you see the Samsung logo, but continue to hold Volume Up until the recovery screen appears.
3. Use the Volume buttons to navigate the menu and select wipe data / factory reset. Press Home to choose the selection.
4. Press Volume Up continue.

With the tablet turned off, press and hold the volume + button...now press and hold the power button at the same time....you should see a list of options...use the volume + button to scroll options. select recovery mode then push the volume - button, try to "reboot system now", if that doesn't work, you may have to select "wipe data factory reset" but this will wipe all of your apps, and restore the tablet to out of the box condition.
