so to reset your tablet,
reboot to fastboot (what you just did)
use the volume and power keys to select recovery
wait and your tablet should show the android logo on its back
then hold volume up and the power button for 2-3 seconds
now there should be a option that lets you reset your tablet
So I have tried this multiple time with no success is there another way or can you upload a video please[email protected]

Can someone please set out in easy to follow steps how I can safely reset my Streak 5 to a factory fresh state.
Many thanks!
go to Settings - Privacy - Factory data reset and push Reset phone.
Turn it off. When off, push vol up and vol down, and turn ir up. When Dell logo appears, release power button but continue pressing vol up and vol down. Then, you'll see a menu, and there is FACTORY RESET.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

In reply to my question on factory reset you said 'Turn it off. When off, push vol up and vol down, and turn ir up.'
What do you mean by 'and turn ir up?'
He meant to say "turn it on".
Turn the Streak off.
While holding down the volume up and volume down buttons, press and hold the power button until the Dell logo appears.
Release the power button, but continue holding the volume buttons until Dell's recovery menu appears on the screen.
Using the volume buttons, select option 1, factory reset, then press the camera button.
Follow the instructions on the screen to reset.
Note: this this requires a stock recovery image to work. If the device has Streakmod Recovery or Clockworkmod, replace them with a stock recovery image before attempting to reset.
Hi, I just got my venue 7 tablet a few days ago. The update 4.3 was automatically installed, but the system just crashed after I installed and uninstalled a few programs (some of them from unknown resource). Fortunately I can still enter the recovery mode.
It will be a big favor if anyone can help me to build a factory data backup file that can be restored by the recovery mode. Dell venue 7 is good but I hate to call dell service.
Thanks.

You don't need to build anything. The last android version is already on the device for a reset.
You will be starting from scratch just like when you purchased it.
Tap your Apps icon.
Go to Settings.
Select Backup & reset.
Choose Factory data reset.
Choose Reset tablet.
After reading the warning, tap “Erase everything” if you’re sure you wish to continue.
Didn't you read that his android has crashed totally? Probably he has a bootloop.
Jason, try going to fastboot first. Shut down your Venue then simultaneously push power and vol down. Select with vol keys option Recovery and apply with power key. Device will reboot to recovery mode. You will see an Android with exclamation mark. Now push simultaneously power and vol up for 1-2 seconds. Then select wipe data/factory reset with vol keys and apply with power key. That's all. Good luck.

No I did not read where he said his tablet crashed completely because that's not what he said. He said
"the system just crashed after I installed and uninstalled a few programs (some of them from unknown resource). Fortunately I can still enter the recovery mode." And he did not say he is in a bootloop. You took that for granted.
So don't use that attitude with me. You are the one that didn't read what he said.
Hi, a friend gave me his mediapad x1 7D-501u, coz he had forgot the password and bought the Nexus 7.
I cant seem to reset the mediapad to its factory settings though!! I tried booting into the bootloader, but when I press the volume down + power for 10 seconds, the tab just starts normally, but now it says "Safe Mode" near the lockscreen.
Is there anyway I can reset this tab for use ? Also, I tried vol Up+ vol Down + power, but it boots into an an update loop and then tries to update and says that no file was found in the SD card. Then a big Red "FAIL" comes on the screen, and it says "please press the power button for 10 seconds to restart"
Please can anyone help on this ??

Is there any reason you can't just do a "Factory data reset" from the "Backup & reset" setting?
Its password locked
Easiest way is to download an official full ROM (not an update), follow the instructions on how to put it on an SD card and start the X1 with volume+&- and power.
Try Volume Up + Power. Worked for me.
Hold the Volume Up Connect the charge cable into the tablet.Wait until you get into recovery
Hi !
My dell venue 7 3740 is not booting into recovery mode when I press and hold vol down and power button until dell logo comes. Instead of the droidboot, the device boots up normally.
Whats interesting is when I use an app for booting into recovery, it boots normally.
Any Idea what is the fault?
*I even tried factory reset.

If i'm not wrong droidboot is the bootloader interface or fastboot
So maybe your fastboot is damaged or you erase it try again but press vol down before power button
You can access to it in adb if still is in you tablet
Adb reboot bootloader
But i don't know what happens after so it's at your own risk
HELP! Blue Wave 8 33GT tablet stuck in recovery mode with "No command" message
I got my Blue Wave 8 33GT (not HD+) tablet completely bricked. First of all, I know this is not really a popular device and some of you might not have a single knowledge about this one, but I hope in any way you might help me get this device working again. Thank you in advance!
Some info about this device:
Bluewave's website: Wave 8
Android OS version: 4.4 KitKat
Device processor: Rockchip-based (RK31)
What just happened? It suddenly reboots while I'm playing and gone into recovery mode with an Android and a "No command." message. Now it won't boot the system anymore whenever I reboot, it always going into this recovery mode.
It has no volume buttons, just a reset, a hard back button and power button. Holding down the power and back button goes into the recovery mode directly. Through normal boot, it flashes the Bluewave logo twice then goes into the recovery. While the reset button immediately turn the device off. There's nothing else I can think of that I can do in this case.
My laptop can recognize it as an ADB Device in recovery mode and I think I may be able to flash it via Rockchip BatchTool, but the instructions I've read states that the device should be up and with a USB debugging enabled which I am not currently able to do in recovery mode. Device is rooted and working totally fine until this happened.
Anyone got into this kind of problem and able to go through it? Please, any help is greatly appreciated.
P.S
Just let me know if there are any additional info I could give you.

Hey! Thanks for your reply and time.
I tried every combination of either of the two keys but there is no such recovery menu showing up, and I am pretty sure that this device doesn't have a built-in recovery for factory reset.
If only I could go to its download mode stuff to be able to flash the firmware...

"Long press the power button to restart the device. If restarting fails, hard reset the tablet by poking the Reset hole using a pin. " it is from FAQ
maybe this could help.
1. Press the power button to get the option menu for
Power off
Reboot
Silence phone option.
2. on that menu you have to hold down that power off option on your touch screen while also holding down the home push button on the side of your tablet.
3. This brings up a screen to reboot into safe mode..(these are the 3 steps the company does not tell you that is why no one gets it to work.
4. HIt yes for safe mode and then hold down your power and home buttons on side of tablet till the dopo Logo appears.
5. Release both buttons and hit the power button one time and then hold only the home button down till a menu option appears.
6. Use the home button to move down to factory reset and press the power button to select. Once it says complete then use the power button to select reboot.
Problem solved. Hope this will help everyone out.
The only way is to remove the battery, attached again the battery then power it on their is no hard reset on blue wave the go to settings factory reset
