How do I factory reset a Busbi 7 tablet... it boots and gets stuck on the android screen..

Make sure the tablet has been turned off first by holding down the power button until you get the power off dialog box and choose power off. Then hold down the volume button and while continuing to hold the volume button, hold down the power button until you get a message like 'booting into recovery mode' or a dialog box that allows you to go into recovery mode and do a factory reset. Some tablets may boot into a screen with the Android robot on it that you can touch the robot and get to the recovery mode screen. When you do a factory reset, all user information stored on the tablet will be cleared, including the passwords or lock codes.

Hi there! Ignore the other answer, they're giving a generic Google search result. On the screen with the Android, press the power and both volume buttons all together in quick intervals until a new screen pops up.

I am giving you an example with an Motorola Tablet. I'd try clearing your cache partition, you can get to the android recovery with your buttons.
1. Turn tablet off. You may need to use two hands in this process to press and hold buttons properly.




2. Turn on the tablet with power button, wait a full 2 seconds from the time the tablet starts showing the red Motorola logo, then press and hold the down Volume key. (you should not hold down the power button after it turns on and logo appears)




3. "Android Recovery" will appear on top of screen if timing is done correctly. Release volume button. (if you continue to press volume down at that message, the message will cycle through "RSD, Fastboot, and back to Android Recovery. Make sure message states Android Recovery before you go to next step). If stuck at a RSD protocol or Fast boot screen, reboot the tablet by holding power button then pressing the volume up).




4. While screen states "Android Recovery", Press volume up button, the screen will say "Entering Android recovery mode" and a few seconds later an Android robot graphic will appear alone on the screen. Release buttons.




5. Hold down power button and then press the volume up key together to see the Android Recovery screen menu selections.




6. Use the volume buttons to move up and down through selection in this menu.




7. Using the volume down button, scroll down to "Wipe data/factory reset"




8. Tap Power hard key to select option.




9. Scroll down to select "Yes, delete all user data".




10. Tap the power button to select. Wiping and formatting data will take a few minutes.




11. You will return back to the Android recovery screen menu.




12. Tap the Power button to "Reboot system now" which will power-cycle tablet and eventually power back on to the Initial Set-up / Welcome screen present when you first turned on your tablet.
As you're going through the options don't do the factory data reset, look for wipe cache partition then follow the instructions to reboot.






Hope this helps!!! Let me know if you need more help
