Iconia B1-A71 Stuck on "Iconia" in boot, will not update firmware etc.

nicholasjenkin

Basically, I woke up to find that my Iconia B1-A71 would not boot past the "Iconia" logo on screen.

I have tried to update the firmware, but i get the "Installation aborted" error for the firmware on the acer website, and get the partition error for the stock firmware downloaded elsewhere. My problem is, i cannot install the Partition error patch without getting past the boot sequence, but the tablet will not boot past the Iconia logo screen. I tried to install the partiton error patch through recovery, but got the same "Installation aborted" error. I have tried restoring it via recovery, but no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
