Thanks so much. I was trying to do factory reset. Other sites left out pressing the home button
I have a Samsung Galaxy tab 3 10 inch, when I turn it on I can't get past the samsung start up screen. I've tried the hard reset home power and vol up buttons but all I get is the samsung logo, any Ideas it was working earlier?
