re: my question about resetting a botched reset on August 5, 2015.

[Wingit]

I left a question/message on August 5th about a botched up reset and I am just
wondering if doesn't ANYBODY have an answer?

I'm thinking that I can't be the only person with a Nextbook tablet that screwed up
the reset directions. Someone somewhere has to have made the same mistake.

So...has anyone read my post from August 5th 2015, and does anyone have any
answers? I have sent it back to the company, but I'd still like to know if I could have
fixed it myself.

Thanks!
Wingit.

Usually flashing a new ROM image onto the device will clear up any non-hardware based issues, it's basically like formatting and re-installing Windows on a computer.

Hi hang-the-ten. Thank you for answering...but I have no idea what you actually mean.
I don't know what "flashing a new ROM" means. Can you explain it as if I'm your Grandma?
Thank you,
Wingit.

There is no "simple" way to explain how to flash a ROM onto a device it's not a basic procedure you would do.

This is one of the ROMs for the Nextbook with instructions on how to flash it http/forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818093

Don't know how you can mess up a reset though, you just hit the buttons and it does the rest. Only time it may fail if the device loses power mid-way through or has a hardware glitch. You can't mess things up once the reset starts.
