My Iview Maximum tablet comes on to the reboot screen. What can I do to get to main screen?

You can try a soft reset on it, and if that doesn't fix it, a hard reset which will scrub it clean of data and reload the operating system.

My tablet is hang how can restart all button are not responding

My first guess is that It is "frozen." If you turn it off and back on, it probably asks for an "unfreeze" code related to unlocking the phone. If that is the issue, you can try to work with Samsung's support via their live chat. http://www.samsung.com/ae/support/model/SM-T331NZWAXSG

This may be helpful related to the above:

http://www.unlocking.eu/how-to-enter/samsung-t331-galaxy-tab-4-80-3g/

I included the above link simply for illustrative purposes. The avove is if you entered the wrong code 3 times that locked the phone.

But alternatively, if the device is truly "hung", you can try first a soft reset and if that does not work, a hard reset (which will return the system to the factory defaults reverting it to how it was when it came out of the box. With a hard reset, you lose whatever you did on it after you took it out of the box.

If you do a soft reset and you get some access to the keypad functioning, you might want to uninstall whatever you probably just installed immediately before it froze up. A soft reset retains your data. I would avoid trying the last program you installed again to see if it ran! You might subsequently download the SD Maid app and select corpse (no kidding) to get rid of residue after the uninstall of what is the problematic program.

How do i reset my asus transformer tablet tf101 i have a blank screen will not turn on

Perform a soft or hard reset on your Asus Eee Pad Transformer Android tablet if it is not functioning correctly. Here's how.

Soft Reset

You would want to soft reset the device in the event that it has become frozen or unresponsive. To do so, press and hold the Power button on the top-left side of the device for about 10 seconds until the device powers off.

Hard Reset

A hard reset (also known as a factory reset) will clear all data and settings from the memory of the device and set it back to factory default settings. You can perform hard reset on the Asus Eee Pad using the Android OS menus or the hardware buttons.
Method 1 1. Power the Eee Pad off.
2. Press and hold the Volume Down button on the left side of the device, then press and hold the Power button.
3. Continue to hold both buttons until a bootloader screen appears.
4. Wait for the prompt that says to "Press <VOL_UP>" then press the Volume Up button to start the process.
The Asus Eee Pad will complete the hard reset process and reboot into a factory default state.
Method 2 1. Open the Settings app.
2. Select Privacy.
3. Choose Factory data reset.
4. Select Erase tablet.
5. Select Erase everything.

Can't reset ematic dual core tablet em63

A hard reset is a last resort, by doing a hard reset you will start all over (pending your skills) you will loose all aps/ data you may have had. Remember the basics on a soft reset you need to hold volume up button and then hold power on button it takes some time for the unit to boot, this is intentional.
