Choosing A Tablet

[vel_tins]

I don't have a V972 (I have a V971) but the attached V972 picture shows the reset hole. I expect you power on the tablet and then use something like a straighten paperclip to stick into the reset hole. This basically does a Factory Reset.

........................................

Good luck

Dangerous advice.

If he uses this hole to reset the device, he will need "good luck" indeed.....to not destroy the microphone...

This isn't the "reset button", the V972 doesn't have any.

You have to press the "power" button for ~8-10 sec. This will shut down the tablet in any case.

PS: what Firmware version do you use?

So where the picture in PIB's post relates to ?

I have a Ainol Hero and this one has also a reset in the mic hole. Have used it a few times already.

I'm only going on what the picture showed. But jumping into the Recovery mode by holding down the Home and Power buttons should get him to when he can select Factory Reset if desired.

The hole in the picture is the microfone...

if sticking a pin in the microphone hole causes a reset, then I would suggest that it is also a reset button hole. However, I am not going to try it just to see.
