Q88 bricked itself - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have a tablet that looks similar to Q88 A13. CPU is wm8801, OS - Android 4.1. So I had stopped using it and left it sit for like 1 year. Now I charged it and tried to turn on, but it wouldn't get past first logo(the one that appears first, not the os loading one) and would attempt to go into recovery itself, but then the android with exclamation mark would appear for a while and then device would reboot and so on and so on...
Then I triggered a hard reset with a button combo, but it didn't really help. Tablet stopped trying to go into recovery and simply kept getting stuck at logo.
I can't access recovery, and neither ADB nor fastboot is working. PC with win 7 reports it as unrecognized device and other PC with win xp doesn't even see that anything is connected to it.
I've tried unsoldering the battery, completely discharging tablet without it, soldered it back on, but didn't help.
Help?

[Q] Help! Can't even use NV Flash!

Used NVflash last night to install CM. Almost immediately there were problems. I was able to boot in CM recovery only once. After that, I could only get to apx mode. Tried to flash again this morning using NVflash and now my tablet won't connect to the PC at all even in apx. Can anyone help? I can't even get the PC to read the tablet at all so I can't transfer files or anything.
EDIT: Finally got into CM Recovery. Did a factory wipe and still can't connect to my PC. Please help!!!
Some severe APX loop problems can look like a completely dead tablet. The screen might not light up at all but you might still be in APX mode. Check to see if your charge light comes on when it's plugged in. If that works then hook it up to your computer and check to see if it's in APX. If it's not press the power key for 2-3 seconds and check it again. You might find that it's just being stubborn.

[Q] Android tablet not booting up

Hello everyone,
I recently received an Innovatek Inno Pad 10 (chinese android tablet) as a gift and the problem is that the tablet does not boot up. When I got the tablet and turned it on, it showed me an android bootloader screen and then it brought me to the android logo boot screen where it would basically go into an infinite boot sequence. I have tried charging it fully and then turning it on, I have tried un-plugging the battery and plugging it back in. I even tried re-flashing the firmware on the device using a software supplied by the company (it was very hard to find and the company's support is not that great). The flashing process was completed successfully but the tablet would still go into an infinite boot loop (I even tried re-flashing it again with no luck). Here is the worst part, there was a u-boot-nand.bin file included with the program and I decided to try and flash the tablet using that file. Now the tablet's screen won't even turn on, but the power and charge buttons still light on. I think the bootloader got messed up. Does anybody have an idea how to get this tablet working? I have posted pictures of the tablet and its specs.
Thanks
John

[Q] Stuck in bootloop, can't use adb

I was trying to flash a ROM (not sure exactly which one - I did this like a month or two ago) but I did something wrong and the phone is now in a boot loop. It gets to HTC logo and reboots constantly. When I try booting into recovery, it show CWM on the screen for a split second and then reboots (back into the bootloop). I am, however, able to get into fastboot. It says "tampered" and "unlocked" at the top. It's hboot version 1.44. When I select the factory reset or recovery option, it goes back into the bootloop.
I have read several posts about connecting it to a computer and using adb to reset it while in fastboot but I can't do that. Whenever I connect it to a computer, the phone does not get recognized on the computer whatsoever. When I plug it in, it starts charging but nothing happens on the computer. I have tried installing the drivers on multiple PCs (both Windows 7 and 8) and I have tried using several different USB cables. This was the case long before it was stuck in the boot loop too so it's not a new issue. It just doesn't get recognized on a computer. I've tried going into device manager and everything, nothing shows up. Is there any way I can fix this issue since I seemingly can't use adb?
Thanks in advance for any help!

[Q] Soft Bricked N7 (2012)

I followed this guide on F2FS for N7. After a few hours I managed to unlock and root my N7. The first time I got Slimkat to work except for the fact I was missing Play store. I was forced to reset to stock using Nexus Toolkit after I soft bricked it during my attempt to fix it.
During my 2nd attempt to install a custom ROM I ended up getting the black google screen despite all no errors during flashing or installation of the files. I attempted to fix this in Recovery Mode which lead to a looping boot screen of Teamwin atm. This logo keeps flashing time to time and will continue to do so until I shut off.
OS
Win7 Pro x64
unlocked Nexus 7 2012 16BG
Stock 4.4.4. Kitkat
I have installed the correct drivers and my PC does recognize the N7 connected via USB. However, during the process of fixing the problem it will disconnect and I'll get the ADB device not connected error. I can see it listed in Device Manager but it will immediately disconnect when I try to unbrick it.
I can access the Fastboot window but when I click for Recovery Mode it'll start the Teamwin looping. Resetting the device will return it to the google black screen with no change. Any help or advice would be great. Thanks.

Pioneer Tablet stuck in logo

My tablet is stuck in the Pioneer logo when is turned on. I tried resetting it with the button in the back but it is still in the same condition. The computer can't detect the tablet and it never loads. I have been looking for a way to get into recovery but I think it is impossible. The tablet was rooted a long time ago.
I have adb but can't make it to detect the device.
Any ideas on how to reset/enter recovery/loading the original ROM again.
