Couldn't find a thread with precisely same situation - this morning I left my Iconia with WiFi off on standby with plenty of battery left (70ish %), only to just find it powered off. Now when I try to power it on, it stays in the Android boot animation and doesn't go anywhere from there.
And like I said in the title, it isn't rooted or in any other way hacked, so this is really weird. I think a factory reset would make it work, maybe, but if anyone has any other ideas I'd love to hear them before resorting to wiping.
Also I have no idea how to do a factory reset without CWM. Long press reset button doesn't seem to work?
Hold Volume Down while turning Power On?
Nope...it tries to run update.zip

A simple method for wiping is described in this thread.
Alternatively you can connect an USB keyboard, boot to recovery (vol-down + power) and press HOME on the keyboard. This will open a menu where you can select factory reset.
It got stuck at "Erasing cache" but I just shut it down and rebooted, now it started. Thanks a lot. Somehow I think I'm going to root it now and put CWM so I won't have to lose all my data because STOCK ROM crashes for some weird reason and I don't have a backup.
in my opinion u should just go ask for replacement....
Hi Folks
My tab only stuck Android logo, ask for password. i enter password then again comes android logo and nothing
I tried hard reset combination. but none worked for me. is there any solution to this problem ?
a solid hard reset combination ? or a rom which will recover my device from this state ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & regards

Sounds like you'll need to try to do a factory wipe from recovery and then flash a zip of the stock rom (which you'll need to copy to your SD card)
Did forget your own password or buy this one hot?

Probably not a good idea for him to answer that if it's the latter.

Did you try a full wipe of the tablet? Hold down the volume up key and the power button until the tablet vibrates. Release the power button while still holding the volume up key, and slide the screen lock button (next to the volume up key) to the right and then back to the left.
The screen should display 'Erasing Userdata', you can then release the volume key. It should then erase the cache, Acer says it can take 5-10 minutes to complete. The tablet should then reboot, and you may be able to get in from the stock settings.
If the tablets hangs at 'Erasing Cache' for more than 15 minutes, force a power down by holding in the power key. The try the power/volume/lock routine again.

What doesn't work exactly? Did you get an error during installation? Or was installation successful but the problem still exists?

try to connect you phoen to your computer to check if it is still on?
I think I have encountered that error before too, was using the latest nightly 54. Even if you press the power button nothing happens..
I held down the power button for maybe like 20-30 secs or so and then it would restart again, but then I'd get a bootloop and to fix that bootloop I had to restore an old nandroid

Omg thank you so much! I did as you said and it restarted (without loop)
No problem! I wonder why mine goes into a bootloop, but whatever. Glad it worked for you though!
Hi, i installed CWM and did a backup, then install the 4.3 Rom from sammobile, then tried to do factory wipe, and it just restarted before finish, then it got stuck in bootloop, i entered again with cwm, and tried to wipe again, same result, then i tried to restore the backup i have made, but it never finish. then i flashed the 4.3 zip again, but still the same result, but now, when i try to enter to cwm, the celphone restart, and when i try to boot normally, got stuck on the galaxy s 4 screen...
any ideas?

If the phone is on, hold power button and vol down untill it shuts off, then without letting go of power button, move finger from vol down and hold vol up (so youll now be holding vol up and power). Hold the buttons until the samsung galaxy s4 splash screen comes on (with white text before the boot screen). You should be able to boot into recovery and restore your backup.
I know restoring your backup didn't work the first time but you should try again. If you have any other roms on your sd card that you can flash from recovery, try those if the backup doesn't restore again

you are holding the power button still even after you let go of vol down correct? Does the phone restart if you hold vol down and power for about 20 seconds (without the finger moving steps)?

Ok.... so I take it your phone does restart. If your phone restarts, it should be able to boot into recovery. Play around with the timing of the recovery button presses and try to get back into recovery. Do a battery and sim card pull. Leave them out for a minute, replace them and try to boot into recovery after replacing them.
If none of that works, I would odin flash the stock firmware and start over with it. Thats just me.

Good news, i left the cellphone charging all night long, then i entered cwm, everything fine, and i restored the backup...
But still, i want the 4.3 rom, What could I have done wrong? Maybe is because i didn't root the phone after?

If you want, try re-flashing it...but your really not missing out on much (major battery drain, no root, no new features). Im not sure what went wrong but its definitely not because you didn't root it after flashing.
Good to hear you got the issue resolved though
Hi everyone,
This morning I've received a notification update and did it. But now my phone is stuck on the booting logo... and my phone is not starting. The logo keeps turning and turning and nothing happens...
Can someone give me a tip on what I can do ?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Can you get into the recovery menu? While the phone is powered off, press and hold the volume down button and the power button at the same time. Once in the menu, you can try to wipe cache and reboot. If that dosent work, you might need to factory reset. Good luck.
Have already tried the "wipe cash" but nothing happened...
How do I do a factory reset ?

You should be able to factory reset from the recovery menu. Keep in mind this will erase your data. Are you rooted?
