[Q] Boot Loop on LE I/O 10.1 need help!

---

Hey Guys, could sure use your help... i updated my 10.1 le yesterday and that went thru fine. Later on i was playing and watching youtube and it sent my tablet into a boot loop and i cant seem to fix it. any help would be appreciated thanks in advance.

Mine did the same thing when i was streaming music. Not even Odin brought it back. I used adb to reboot into stock 3e recovery and wipe data/factory reset it, then used Odin to grt back to 3.0.1. Then i just redownloaded the 3.1 update. Hope that helps

right now im having problems with adb listing the devices. adb is installed. it keeps saying that i need some APX drivers???

Drivers are here:

I had the same problem. This is what i did. Since I had already rooted my tablet, I already had in my laptop ADB and the driver for the tablet. If you don't have these 2 things, I suggest you go to the development section of this forum, look for the insrltructions on how to root, and download what you need.

I connected my tablet then went into cmd mode (DOS MODE), then typed adb reboot recovery. From there the tablet rebooted into recovery. I then wiped data and cache. Then I rebooted and it went fine, no more bootloop. In settings I noticed that it had reverted back to 3.0.1 so I just did update again. Since then my tablet has been smooth as butter.

For those not too comfortable with ADB, I just installed PDAnet (for the fastboot drivers) and after booting to fastboot (holding power and the volume down button and selecting the USB symbol) I used the "fastboot -w" command in CMD.exe to wipe the device.

Its rather strange that a lot of people are having problems. Mine started after getting an error turning on the WIFI chip. Thank god for Titanium Backup's option to sync with Dropbox. Hope this helps.

THANK YOU!! Your suggestion of installing PDAnet saved me! I was having a hell of a time trying to get the right drivers so my computer would recognize the tablet has an adb device. After installing PDAnet, it was a cinch. Then I reflashed everything, wiped userdata and cache, and rebooted (I followed the instructions found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=111) Now my tab is working again and I was getting ready to ship it off to Samsung so they could re-flash it for me.

Follow this steps :D

Obviously I have installed adroid-sdk and download fastboot from HTC page.

I'm one of the lucky ones who has had their I/O tab stuck in a boot loop on 3.1, and after trying the steps below, I am not getting it to work. I know I must be making a stupid mistake somewhere along the line, but essentially,

I downloaded the new image, boot, and recovery files into a directory on my hard drive;

I installed PDAnet;

I entered into fastboot on my GTab and plugged it into my PC;

I can tell that fastboot is now listed as a device (I suspect this means that the drivers are installed correctly and that it is recognizing a fastboot device);

Now when I try to run the fastboot commands suggested, I get 'fastboot' is not recognized as an internal or external command...

Stupid question, but I am supposed to run this command from cmd.exe, right? Any ideas what I am doing wrong so that the fastboot commands are not recognizable? I may need a dumbed down instruction set if there are steps I am missing somewhere...

Edit:

After trying just about everything, I have concluded there are two hurdles I still cannot pass. First, if I fastboot my device, and select the USB icon, my device is appearing in my windows device list. However, I cannot run any fastboot commands in cmd.exe window. Not sure why or what else is needed. Second, I successfully installed SDK and tried to enter recovery mode through ADB, but I cannot find the magic trick to have my device appear in ADB. ODINing back to stock did not make a difference. If I can get past either of these hurdles I am confident I can progress, so any suggestions are appreciated.
