[Q] A500 factory reset problem - Acer Iconia A500

For some reason. every time I reboot, sw reset, hard reset, my a500 boots up
back to a certain setting. I have tried all resets, but it goes back to the same screen. I have uninstalled apps, but when I reset-reboot they are back.
Even when I install new apps, when I reboot , they are gone.
I have no idea what to do. It seems as though the factory reset has been set to this setting rather than the actual factory reset..
Any help would be great as I cant even save anything, install or do anything because as soon as it reboots, its all gone
thanks

I can't get Vtap to work, Help?

I've tried uninstalling soft reset, re installing, soft reset, nothing seems to work.
It will start up, and then lock the HD2 up, prompting a soft reset to get phone functionality back. Has anyone else ran into this?

[Q] Recovery Mode

Help, I cannot get into recovery mode anymore. My phone says rebooting into recovery, then you can see the android with writing under that I believe says updating system something... but it disappears so fast it's hard to see. Every couple seconds it appears for a split second and goes away until I pull the battery. I am rooted and the reason I would like to factory reset is because I downloaded cracked google play store, then when trying to revert to the original google play throws an error on my screen every couple seconds unless I turn it off in the application menu.. I googled this and tried EVERYTHING but to no avail so I would like to factory reset but can't. The cracked google play will not even work now I soft reset my phone from the settings and thought I bricked it because I could only boot into recovery and that wasn't booting.. until I pulled the battery and did volume down, home, power, and re-rooted. I'd like to get play store working but I figure I'll want to factory reset eventually when I want to sell the phone.

Not able to start from factory reset again, get's stuck or reboots constantly

hi...
I'm really desperate, my phone is suddenly dying and I have no idea why, I'll tell you from yesterday what has happened:
- I'm playing a stupid game and suddenly the screen goes black. No led, phone doesn't answer any button, nothing. I hold power button, nothing. Remove battery and put again, nothing. After some attempts phone turns on, but just after starting it reboots or stays frozen.
- I decide to change the rom (I had simpl rom), so I do a full wipe and put CM 12. It seems it works, but when I'm in the settings, at the beggining, I don't even have time to put the wifi, it starts rebooting again and/or not responding.
- Desperated, I install via odin the stock firmware from Sam Mobile. It seems it's gonna work, but when the dialog of "Android is upgrading -- Optimazitating app x of XX" it always gets stucked in a number, randomly. I never get to the 230 apps.
- As a last chance, I try Kies to install factory firmware. The same as before happens, but now it's only 17 the number of apps it tries to optimize.
These last 2 times, of course, I enter recovery from time to time (now the default one) and wipe cache partition.
My phone is agonizing, what the f is happening? Does anybody know what could happen?
Please help...

Factory Reset Stops in the middle: LG G2 stuck in bootloop and can't reset

I have an LG G2 stuck in a bootloop. I've tried doing a factory reset but the process stops in the middle and the bootloop restarts. A few times I've been able to get the phone to work for a few seconds before it restarts itself into a bootloop. I've tried uninstalling apps, changing settings other users suggested for similar issues (such as the default keyboard), and disconnecting my google account (another suggested solution). I haven't been able to get my phone to go into download mode so I haven't tried any flashing approaches and don't think I'll be able to. Any suggestion on how to get the hard reset to work?
What did you do to the phone that caused this to happen?
If you never did anything nasty to it, then I guess it is a hardware defect. Maybe the cooling of the main chip doesn't work so it overheats.
