Had the tablet for nearly a year and been really happy with it, fast smooth and better than a nexus 7 using the free boot loader changer off play, however a week ago I switched it on and it said that the memory was corrupt and after shutting down and restarting I was left with just the boot loop problem, so I looked around the WWW for advice and found what was needed IE: the stock firmware unrooted English version (20130325).img , I could always root if I wanted to myself no problems there, and the batch tool.
To be on the safe side I plugged in the power and - volume button couple mins followed by both -/+ vol together with power to get into the androids system for wipe and reset including caches. Tried this first, followed by reboot ...no luck was still left with it freezing and the screen was showing the pipo logo but there was no animation and at the bottom there were coloured horizontal lines a couple cm apart.
Next I moved onto to re-flashing Not!! upgrading.
Put the pipo in flash mode and checked that everything was ready in the batch tool, had to switch from pink to green and then proceeded to restore, Success!! no errors waited a few mins and my tablet restarted.
All looked well, it was asking me to add apps. But like a PC install I waited a while and then shut it down so as to gather itself before adding anything, now here was the burn....
Just as before, it had froze after being restarted on the pipo screen.
Now if it were a black screen I would have thought about opening and cutting the battery supply for a few seconds, but this? I'm at a loss.
I would really appreciate some feedback, advice, help ...yes I'm starting to sound a little desperate, but I don't know what else I am supposed to do.
Cheers in advance.
