Android System Recovery
Android System Recovery is used for Google updates. The
average user should never need to perform a system recovery.

select reboot system now, then press the Home Key . Your device
then continues to boot up.
To enter the Android System Recovery mode, follow these steps:
1. With the device turned off, press the Power/Lock Key
and Volume Up Key at the
same time until the device switches on.
2. Once the Galaxy Tab logo appears, release the Power/Lock
key while continuing to press the Volume Up key.
3. Continue to press the Volume Up key for at least 8
seconds, until Recovery mode is launched and the Android
System Recovery screen is displayed.
4. Release the Volume Up key.
5. The following options are available:
• reboot system now: turns on your device.
• apply sdcard:update.zip: allows you to apply updates to your
device.
• wipe data/factory reset: deletes all data from the device except
captured pictures and videos. For more information, refer to
“Factory Data Reset” on page 110.
• wipe cache partition: allows you to delete all cache data such as
log files.
• format internal sd-card: allows you to reformat the internal
microSD card.
