Hey All, I was able to complete this task by placing the individual files from “cleandata.zip” onto the memory card. I tried placing the files from the zip folder onto the memory card, but that didn’t work. Place only the individual files from the zip folder onto the memory card and re-boot and it will work…

Power up the Tablet while PRESSING the (POWER)+(VOLUME UP)+(VOLUME DOWN) buttons all at the same time for several seconds….. the Android native boot loader will load allowing you to delete data and restore to factory defaults…..
