My hanspad 10.1 will not turn off or start up. Its stuck with the logo on screen until the battery runs out. Help.

If your Vivitar Camelio tablet is stuck on the opening screen, you can try the following steps to fix it:

1. Perform a soft reset by pressing and holding the power button for 10-15 seconds until the screen turns off. Then, release the power button and press it again to turn on the tablet.
2. If the soft reset doesn't work, try a hard reset by pressing and holding the volume up button and the power button at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the tablet vibrates and the Vivitar logo appears. Release the buttons and wait for the tablet to reboot.
3. If the above steps don't work, try connecting the tablet to a computer with a USB cable and see if it recognizes the device. If it does, you may be able to restore the tablet to its factory settings using software provided by Vivitar.
4. If none of the above steps work, you may need to contact Vivitar customer support for further assistance or bring the tablet to a repair shop.

hold the power button and the volume down button until the screen turns back on, then keep holding the volumes down button while letting go of the power button, keep holding for a while fr, then it should say the version name, and where u got it for me "T-moblie" bam to my Home Screen!

Hi Teresa,

You have two options one to let the battery run out and restart the iPad. The other is to hard shut your ipad down.

You can do this by pushing the power button and the bottom button at the same time for 10 seconds after which you should see the Apple logo and your ipad should restart.

I hope I was able to help you.
Have a great day

This tutorial will explain how to force your iPad to restart if it gets stuck or freezes up.
Forcing your iPad to restart will not cause any loss of data - with the possible exception of any work you were doing at the time the iPad and/or App froze, forcing you to restart it.

Click and hold down the Sleep/Wake button (located on the upper-right corner of your iPad). While you're holding down the Sleep/Wake button, hold down the Home button as well (located on the front of your iPad at the bottom). Hold down both buttons until your iPad powers off. It will reboot and start again with a small silver Apple image on the screen. It takes about 30 seconds for the iPad completely start up.

1. Shut off tablet
2. press the volume minus button and the power button @ start up
3. tmax logo shows up and then a android menu
4. factory reset
5. Once complete, reboot
6. wait 4-5minute... tablet works again

press the power and volume down simultaneously for 5 seconds or more until the tablet resets or goes to service mode . If service mode activated select reset tablet

Hello there, i just owned a brand new Asus T100 for 2 days and today on the 3rd day after purchasing, i faced problems during boot/start up where the laptop gets frozen on the Asus logo screen.
I tried holding down the power button for 10 seconds and turned it on again. It ran a series of windows software updates before the start up, then after all software updates have been completed, the laptop resumed to freeze at the Asus logo screen again. I tried holding the power button for 10 secs followed by holding the power button and volume up button at the same time, to get into automatic repair/repair mode. THIS HELPS, get into the repair mode!

To cut it short, i tried the other advanced options as well as the restart button in the repair mode but to no avail. After carefully reading the different options in the 'advanced options' in repair mode...
Here's what worked for me:
1) If you're stuck at the Asus logo screen which doesn't seem to boot for ages or at least 10 minutes, hold down the power button for 10 seconds and let the screen turn black. (I did this with my charger plugged in, not too sure if it matters)
2) Count to 10 seconds. Switch the laptop on by HOLDING THE POWER BUTTON + VOLUME UP BUTTON at the same time. This will send the laptop into an 'automatic repair', followed by a 'diagnosing this PC' and after which you will see a blue screen which is the repair mode.
3) On the blue screen you will see 2 buttons, 'Restart' and 'Advanced Options'. Click on 'Advanced Options'. (DO NOT CLICK RESTART, it does nothing as you will get stuck again at the logo screen)
4) After clicking 'Advanced Options', click 'Advanced ....' (i forgot what exactly) and click 'STARTUP REPAIR'. This is the crucial part.Then follow whatever the system promts you.
5) Afterwards, it will attempt to repair your system then lead you back to the logo screen for startup.
6) Wait a few minutes and you should be able to get to your login screen as usual.

Hope this helps. I chanced upon it by guessing which would actually help me.

Try reseting the iPad by holding the home and power buttons simultaneously until the iPad completely shuts down and the Apple logo appears.


Once the Apple logo appears you can release the buttons. If this does not work, you may need to connect your iPad to your computer and do a factory restore using iTunes.
