are you rooted..?? if yes, then which ROM..?? If no, then get it rooted first. You can go to download mode after that if your Volume key isn't working.

buddy, I think you need to go to SSC. Coz for going in CWM & Download mode, you need to press Up volume button. Or somehow you can reach to Menu(start the device) then we can help you out.

I need help fixing my Nobis Tablet.

Nobis Tablet
Model – NB09
Android Version – 4.1.1
Kernel Version – 3.0.8
Build # - NB09.2013929.V005
This tablet says it has insufficient storage space and I am unable to install or move any apps. It also keeps factory resetting every time I turn it off. Is there anyway to fix this?

You have to reboot into recovery mode, wipe everything/factory reset because your tablet may have errors in the system and to boot into recovery mode, turn it off and press & hold power button + vol up at the same time until you see the nobis logo/or it vibrates and after that release the power button, but continue to hold the vol up button until the android recovery pops up.
Then its straightforward from there.

Since mine had a warranty, all I had to do was email the manufacturer to get a return maintenance RMA number, ship it to them, and wait for them to ship it back fixed. I'm trying to find their website for ya.

I fixed the problem by shipping it back to Nobis and having them do whatever they did to fix it. When they shipped it back to me, it was working perfectly. But now, it’s doing the same darn thing, lol… Busybox was never installed on that tablet.

I have support email address

The correct method on my Nobis NB09 was to hold down on the minus (-) volume button and the power on simultaneously. Once the boot screen appears,
you will see a plain screen similar to the old DOS screens. Use the volume up and down to select the menu choice. Use the power on/off button as the "enter" key.

[Q] Help 10.1 stuck at Samsung logo!

Hi, my Samsung note 10.1 is stuck at the start logo. I googled it and looked at solutions on this site but my situation seems more hopeless than others I've read about. Firstly, I have never rooted this and it should be running ICS. I had left my (working) tablet for about 10 hours and tried to activate the screen when I picked it up. I pressed the power button which gave me the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 logo which stayed on the screen and wouldn't budge but when I held the power and volume buttons, it would go off after 4 or five seconds only to come on again. I have looked at these and other forums and have tried a hard re-set but I just get the same logo appearing again and again. I couldn't actually turn it off, so I opened it and disconnected the battery. This has made no difference. I removed the SD card while I tried every permutation of pressing buttons but all to no avail. Please help. Is this now permanently dead? I would love to do a re-set and don't care about losing stuff but that doesn't work.????
Thanks for reading this....

Yes, that's the method to get into download mode. You need to press them both at the same time.

When you press the On/Off + Volume Up buttons at the same time you need to hold them until the writing shows up. Once you see the Samsung logo then let the buttons go. If you release the buttons before that the device will just do a regular boot instead.

I have the exact same issue, stuck at screen, also just got it yesterday. I believe it is due to kitkat OTA, as I was running 4.1.2 and was not planning to update. I think the tablet somehow updated itself.
---------- Post added at 01:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:16 PM ----------
I also tried flashing various recovery, including the stock recovery, TWRP, CWM. The furthest I get to the recovery is the android boot logo, and it reboots back to the "Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1" logo screen
I think it would be fine if I can hard reset the device, but no dice for now.
Going to try flashing older 4.1.2 rom later. Hope that works.

Thanks for this, it would explain why my 10.1 suddenly became useless without me doing anything to it. I've read that the KIt Kat update was only made available to the wi-fi and 3G versions and that installing it on the Wi-Fi only could brick it!
Can you point me in the direction of a guide to trying what you've done? Otherwise this is going back to Samsung to fix for silly money, no doubt.

Turn off the tablet completely. Then, press the Volume Up and On/Off buttons at the same time for a few seconds until you see the writings come up (most likely the Samsung logo). As soon as you see the writings let the buttons go. That will get you into the Recovery mode. Do a Factory Reset and reboot.
You have to set up everything after doing this but at least you'll get your tablet back.

Nope, apparently after asking around , mosts owners that bricked their device this way, can't enter recovery mode. It just shows the android logo that supposedly leads to the recovery option for a few secs, and restarts. I think its an issue with the new bootloader 4.4 is bundled with, that only afflicts a small number of devices. I even have a colleague at work that had the same problem after auto updating, but somehow after multiple reboots getting stuck at the logo screen, it now works properly, and boots up with 4.4 instead of the previous os.

I still don't know why you can't get into the Recovery mode with the Vol. Up + On/Off?
Do you hold the buttons until you see the logo comes up or you let it go before that?

I have been using custom and stock recovery on my almost 2 year old note 10.1. Pretty sure I did not make a mistake pressing it, its just that the recovery mode loads and fail. I see the android recovery logo for a sec or two, then it reboots before showing the recovery menu. So this boot loop prevents most people from reseting/wipe from the recovery menu.
But its rather nonsensical to assume a guy who knows how to flash custom recovery on his almost 2 year old note 10.1 doesn't know how to enter the recovery mode, don't you think?

I agree. Well, I couldn't find any information regarding your situation. Sorry pal. I wish you luck.

I think that I can tell you an old experience I had. I was on stock Jelly Bean. It wasn't this type of a problem but maybe it might help somebody. Here's what happened:
I was using my tablet in the afternoon and I pressed the power button to close the screen. Then I left. After a while I came back and tried turning on my tablet. It wasn't turning on. It wasn't reacting to anything. Neither the power button, nor the charger. I searched online and found out that you could hold your finger on the screen while pressing the power button. And guess what! My tablet showed the charging screen. Then I just booted normally. My tablet was just like before!

I have been all over for days on this. I can get into odin mode, but it absolutely will not go into recovery mode. I ran Odin3 v3.0.7 and twrp, no luck, would just lock up. I ran Odin3 3.10.7 and sammmobile factory firmware. This says Pass! but it still just hitches at the title screen. I can't even get it to turn off. Only way is to run it dead or unplug the batt internally. Please help? Is there nothing I can do?

Finish the battery power of the phone and leave it for 2 days or so (in Download mode and *not* connected to odin) for faster battery usage, or anywhere as long as it on
After that power it to recovery mode with the volume up button and the power button but press em right after inserting the power cord (cable to your phone to charge it so it can boot to recovery)
When the Samsung thingies pop up release the power button and don't release the volume up button
Press till u see the recovery menu and then wipe cache and then factory reset it :cyclops:
Mostly likely it's gonna need the previous Google account details, I'll research on how to frp bypass the Google lock

Hope you are doing it correctly to go to download mode:
When your comp is on, connect one end the USB C cable to your comp , turn off phone, press & hold volume up & down buttons together, connect the other end of the cable to the phone. When the warning screen appears, press volume up.
It's been like this for sometime now(starting with S20 series).
