The last time this happened, I had to let the battery completely drain.
Happened to me for the first time today, read this forum and then searched the internet and found this fix in about 5 minutes! "here is what you need to do in the case of this. use the volume down button to scroll to the bottom and last option on the screen. press the volume up button to select and it will start your device normally" Worked the first time.
Hello MarcSays! My apologies for the issues you're experiencing with your tablet. Let's review this further. What were you doing on the tablet up until this point? Have you attempted to at the same time, press and hold the Volume Down button + the Power button at the same time till it powers off, then release and allow it to reset. Thanks!

I just turned it on and boom, Chinese characters started to display.
Yes, I tried your suggestions many times with no success. Finally I let the battery drain completely and I just turned it on and it's working fine!
This is not good, something is definitely wrong with this tablet.
MarcSaysI would be concerned too if my tablet was doing something like that. How often has this happened now? When was the last time this occurred? Did the screen look like a menu with an arrow to choose from each line?ChristopherM_VZWFollow us on TWITTER @VZWSupportIf my response answered your question please click the _Correct Answer_ button under my response.

I'm having this same problem. It's happened three times now. Is there another way to shut the phone off? Yes, I've tried the power button and pressing power and volume down...
I am having this problem right now. Power and volume down does nothing. Please help.

This happened to my son's tablet tonight. Your advice was excellent. I was able to get the tablet to restart.
