While I was booting up my xoom, I accidentally selected "NVFlash" by playing with the volume keys at the "Motorola Dual Core Technology", now I cannot seem to turn off or restart the tablet, no matter how long I hold the power button.
It's stuck at a pure black screen with the LED on on the right. Anyone know how to get out this? Thanks in advance. I couldn't find anything about this on the Xoom -- just the G Tablet and LG Optimus 2X.
Solution: Yea don't laugh Just press both volume keys and the power button and the xoom will turn off no matter what.

Hi there,
I've got a problem with my A500 (rooted with taboonay ROM).
I've been using it for weeks without a problem. But now it doesn't boot any more. The screen stays black, the Power button lights on when I press it, but that's all.
I tried to hold Volume button while pressing Power, but it won't boot either.
I don't understand why it behaves like this.
Any way to force it to boot, please?
thanks !
Look somewhere on the forums, there was a topic how to unbrick.

Try doing a hard reset.
There's a little pinhole on right, lower side of tab labeled "reset".
I tried to push this little button, the power button lights on but the screen stays off...thank you anyway. Any other tips?

Hi Jeff.
Make sure that the phone is fully powered-off first, and not just in standby mode. Then hold the VOL- button down first, then hold down the POWER button. Make sure you keep holding the buttons without letting go. It could take up to 10 seconds, but should happen quickly.
If that doesn't work, try going into Recovery mode. Power the phone off completely, then hold HOME and POWER.
Let me know how that works.
First question: Not sure if it's the phone or the software but when I shutdown my phone and try to turn it back on by holding the volume button and the power button, it doesn't work. But as soon as release the power button, it decides to turn on. Can someone help me with this?
Second question: Does my phone need to be rooted to get Android 4.1.1?
NOTE* Currently on Android 2.3
1) Keep trying, you shouldn't have to release a button to turn it on. Are you holding the right buttons? Its down+power
2)Yes

First Volume down, then the power button, it should be on within 3 seconds.
Do you have ADB enabled? Plug your phone into your computer, if your computer recognizes it via ADB, come back
Help!

I would try pushing recovery img through adb. See if that solves the problem.
Hi guys! Just got a nexus 7 1st gen and its stuck in a bootloop. It seems that it thinks the power button is constantly pushed in when its not which is causing it to restart constantly. Ive managed to get it to stay on by wedging down the volume up key but i cant use the sleep/wake or volume up and as soon as i let go of the volume up it thinks the power button has been pressed and asks me if i want to power down, but before i can press anything it resets. I have put new buttons in this morning to no avail and cant find anyone with the same problem and was wondering if anyone one here had any idea?
