my t800 is rooted I may have the wrong twrp app. this method did not bring me to reset. Frank in Fla
My tablet was factory reset by me. It came on after this with everything in (I think) Hong Kong Chinese. I need to know how to restore my Tablet to English. None of the above achieved this for me.
I have a galaxy s 10.5 with qn unresponsive touchscreen I heard I might need to get out of power save mode but I'm stuck near the end of the setup wizard where it says my current account is activecand gives me the option to add a account on several different apps and the option to skip…which I want but my keyboard will not allow me to highlight any of the options on that screen accept back??? Any ideas would he great maybe I'm missing a button combo on the keyboard I don't know.
After doing all if that, my tab still won't open

May be the idea is excellent, but in my case there is no way to switch off the device, the screen is black and after twice pressure on home button I hear the voice of Google girl, saying that she could not help me as far as my device has no internet connection. I tried to switch it off disconnecting the battery, but Android returned again to the same level (no restart) and I could not make hard reset.
