Verizon GizmoTablet - Restart Device

Here's how to restart your GizmoTablet if it crashes and resets, freezes or runs slowly.
  • Since this device has a non-removable battery, the restart (soft reset) process can be used to simulate a 'battery pull' when the device is unresponsive, frozen or doesn't power on.
  • In rare cases, a restart could affect data (e.g., backup in progress, cached data, etc.).

Preferred Method

  1. Press and hold the
    Power button
    (right edge) until the 'Power off' prompt appears then release.

    Restart

  3. Tap
    Restart
    to confirm.

Alternate Method

    Volume down button
    (right edge) and the
    Power button
    (right edge) until the 'Maintenance Boot Mode' screen appears (approx. 10 seconds) then release.
