My Archos 70 Internet Tablet 250GB is now completely frozen.
The only thing it will do is Reboot! That's it ...
I can't used any of the functions. Every time it reboots, it hangs up/is frozen. None of the active icons work. It just stays at the Desktop.
This problem started after I followed these instructions:
1) Setting-->Manage Applications-->All-->Market (Clear Cache then 'Force Stop' -- DO NOT clear data)
2) Setting-->Manage Applications-->All-->Google Services Framework (Clear data then 'Force Stop')
After I finished #1, the Archos seemed to be ok. Then, when I finished #2, the Archos hung up, and has stayed hung up since.
I tried connecting the Archos to my MacPro 2.93GHz. The Archos doesn't show up on my Mac's desktop. When I first got the Archos, I was able to connect to my MacPro just fine. I transferred some files from my MacPro to the Archos, and was able to open them up with no problem (videos, pictures and pdf files).
Before doing the "Setting" procedure, I was on the Internet with the Archos, had updated the Firmware, was running Android 2.2.
It looks like I have no choice but to send this thing back to J&R.
I really like what the Archos is supposed to do! I'd like to get another one and see if it will function properly. Hoping that I just got a lemon ....
Anyone else having serious problems with their Archos 70 IT?
Oh yes, I only got this Archos yesterday around 11:45 a.m. I never dropped the tablet, and nobody else ever touched it. By midnight, it was toast!
