When using the USB mass storage with Windows it's not enough to "Safe unmount" the device, you have to do a right click on the Touchpad disk inside Explorer and hit "Unmount", then the Touchpad will leave the USB screen automatically.
if its not attached to a PC and you accidently hit the vol+ button on booting just hold power and home-button for 10-15 sec.
Thank you.. All of you.. I've got it back to normal.. But maybe you guys can help with another issue I'm having.. I've put about a gig of music and a couple of pdf's on my TP and after unmounting I can't find any of it.. Am I missing something? I did create new folders for them on the root of the drive.. Remounted and they are still there.. What's the deal?

I believe you need to put it under /media/internal. That's like the “sdcard” of the touchpad.
Just had a scare. This worked for me! Thought of mentioning it here for the key combinations in case someone needs it.
Thanks. XDA comes through every time!

But what if there is no home button? Mine is the one where the home button appears when I'm past the error, and I can't get past it. (HP 7 1800 tablet)

Hey guys I need your help asap!!!
I already rooted my HTC Thunderbolt but I'm still fairly new to all of this. I was going through my phone and I seen that I had a firmware update available so I decided to start it up. I thought it would be a quick and easy update so started the update and left the room. I came back 2 hours later and my thunderbolt had a black screen with a exclamation mark inside of a triangle to the left of a little android guy. I couldn't leave that screen unless I pressed the power button and volume keys at the same time. Once rebooted everything looks normal, and everything begins to load up but only 10 secs later my phone begins to power down again and I have no control of it. Once powered down, a loading droid comes up as if something is starting to download, but once the loading bar reaches the middle of the status bar, the image I mentioned earlier comes up again.
If it helps the last two things I have changed on my thunderbolt was I flashed Lean Kernel extreme and installed Launcher Pro....Any help is appreciated, I just hope I didn't do what I think I did (bricked it)

Tried a factory reset?
It doesn't give me time to get to my Rom manager
You are rooted so u shouldnt have done that update...
hold the power button and the volume down button at the same time...see if you can boot into recovery....
damn...so what do you suggest???
read my post # 5
yeah when I do that I just reboot back to the phone again then 10secs after Im rebooted, it says "powering down" and gives me the same exclamation mark inside the triangle and the little android guy next to it

when you hold down the power button and volume down and it reboots....doesn't it go to a white screen? I beleive it says recovery in blue......if you use the volume down to highlight it...then press the power button.....it should reboot into recovery.......
alright I just turned it off and I pressed the power button and the volume down....the white screen came up and its now asking me if I want to start update. If I press the "no" option I should be good right? I just want to make sure before I do anything else

what you have to do....is let the phone reboot normally.....then when the phone bbot up...connect to your computer.....delete the radio file on your SD card...it will say something like PG51....zip...then hold the power button and volume down.....then it will not ask you for an update when it reboots...then you can go and highlight recovery...
Do you think it will be just as effective if I took my sd card out and just deleted that file you mentioned?? because seeing that my phone turns off after only a few secs of it being rebooted I dont have enough time to syc it to my computer

that will work!!! take out the card...delete the radio file....should be PG51xx.zip...put it back...hold power button and volume down button...phone reboots into white screen...use volume button to highlight recovery...then push power button....phone will reboot into recovery.....
also..save the file that you are deleting off the sd card...you will need to reinstall after you restore the rom you want...
okay so I guess I ended up doing it the hard way but its cool I guess...
basically I held the volume down button and then pressed and held the power button until hboot comes on like you said but it didn't allow me to select anything other than "yes" or "no" to continue the update or not. It will check the file, then ask if I wanted to update. I pressed volume up for yes. After update, I pressed power to reboot.
After pressing the down key to stop the update, and I seen that it didn't work after 5 or 6 tries (because it just rebooted and did nothing), I just pressed the volume up.
Once it rebooted after I pressed the volume up key it restored my phone like the first day I got it. its a little annoying because now I have to download everything again but at least its not bricked
Thanks a lot man, I completely appreciate your time and effort...
glad you

glad you got it...but all you had to do is delete the PG51..zip file off your SD card and you would have been able to reboot into recovery...if you have the P51...zip file on your phone.....it will ALWAYS ask you to update....
For the record, when that black screen with the exclamation mark comes up, you are in recovery. All you had to do was press menu. I just made this same mistake like a noob, now I gotta wait until my lunch break to fix it.
This is a pretty common mistake
So not only is my power button not working, Im stuck in the bootloader screen and cant reboot since the power button isn't working. So how can I reboot my phone to at least get it back to being a phone? I took the back part of the phone off to see if I remove the power button and manually press it would that work, no luck there. Any suggestions?
*******Ok so I think I fixed the problem, turns out the power button just need a little bit of help. so if I mess with it to turn off and on it's works. Thanks for the responses, glad to know that when needed, help is there and will be given******
Also, sounds like I might need to be moving on from this phone to the M8. New phone??? well alright!!!!!!
You in HBOOT or FASTBOOT?

Ok, I am connected to my comp, but how would I fast reboot without the use of the power button?
OK UPDATE!!!
So I held the power button down for a min or so and it shut down and rebooted. But the power button still doesn't work.
Yea I know, it doesn't make sense if the power button doesn't work how did it reboot when I held it down for a min? Im trying to wrap my brain around that one too. lol
Long story short. I finally got brave enough to root my phone. I did it successfully. then I think I killed it . http://forum.xda-developers.com/droi...3030852/page58
Then, while trying to get the Verizon wireless hotspot hack to work following these directions, http://forum.xda-developers.com/droi...nlock-t2869432, I got to step 2 and for some reason the changes wouldn't save. so after doing some searching, I read that another person had tried another superuser app and was able to save their changes. So, I downloaded the superuser app and took off the original super SU. Then I kept getting an error that said, I didn't have root access. So I downloaded the original app. I had before from the play store and proceeded to replace it. The app installed fine and then said that the device needed to be rebooted. I hit okayand the phone turned off.
It never turned back on. Pressing the power button for any length of time will not turn on the device. When I press the power button along with the down volume button and hold them after releasing the Motorola logo comes up and then the phone goes dark again. like it's off. It doesn't have any blinking indicator lights nothing. When it's connected or disconnected from the computer. My PC makes chiming sounds like normal, even though the phone looks like it's completely off.
When I plug it into a charger, it stays completely dark, with no indicator lights like it's off. While its plug-in if I push and hold the power button still nothing. if I push and hold the power button and the volume down button, while it still plugged in,the Motorola logo comes up and then nothing again like it's powered off. The second time I repeat that procedure. The battery indicator comes up showing that it's charging. And just to let you know that the first time when all this happened and I saw the battery indicator it was charged at 80% still, so that's not the problem.
so my question is, did I brick my phone? is it permanently bricked? Is there anything I can do about it? or should I just look for a new one?
thank you for any help you could offer.

You need a file manager with root access, and a text editor, I like Root browser but there are several many include a text editor, often the file manager's options need to be changed to root.

It took a while, but after repeated trying I FINALLY got the phone into fastboot and followed you directions.
They worked! I have my phone back! Yesss!!! Thank You! I thought I may be stuck with a shiny blue paperweight.
It may be a while before I get brave enough to mess with it again, lol. Many Thanks
Great, just reply in this thread, if you have more questions.

Sooo.... HDX 8.9 Saturn... Rooted using Kingroot, and Disabled OTA... and the home launcher... so I'm at the point where windows explorer opens up the kindle, but i don't see anything because I had a password on it, and ADB won't let me install a new launcher to fix my mistake... Does anyone know the fix to this or can point me to the right path?
I guess your one option is hard reset from stock recovery.
You need working adb. I suppose after the hard reset adb access will appear. But no guarantees.
Will that not disable adb anyways?
I said: "no guarantees". but I dont see other option anyway.
Can't get into recovery... What are the buttons to be holding... Vol Up + Power, right?
Just hold vol up immediately after power on.

Right I did that, got in, but it cycled out almost instantly... I tried a few more times, and left it alone.. now it won't respond to anything, not even when I plug it in... argh... Looks like its permanently dead.
i dont think that this is possible
try to leave it in charge or hold power button long, above 3 min.

just clarifying, hold vol up immediately after power on, without holding power button.
I left it on the charger overnight, and now it won't respond...
That is how I got into recovery, then it cycled out... I tried to go into recovery with only the volume up, and it wouldn't let me, and then this happened....
i'm going to hold off until Saturday, and leave it for about 5 hours on the charger... See if that does something
Yeah, so I left it in the charger overnight, and there is no response no matter what button combo I do....
so what the heck happened... I didn't do anything in recovery, unless it did something when it flashed out...
Well, I finally did the factory reset... I have the notification panel and the home buttons panel... Settings doesn't work, neither does wireless, and I have a flickering screen.
Amazon said they will send me a new one...
Search Partially works, except that I can't really turn on wifi to download an apk or turn on ADB using the option... wonder what would happen if I tried ADB now... not much point anyways since I'll get a new one, just loose root.... I can live with the new UI

Hi, I had the problem too when I didn't use the tablet long time.
I solved it by Charging it full and than press Power Button for 10 Seconds very very often.... after much tries of pressing it, it finaly turned on.

After wild pressing buttons for long time and very often it started working again.
Try also to leave the charger for atleast 1 hour on the tablet maybe it works.
