Rebooting cycle in Android

    Hallo - I hope I am in the right place. I have a two and a half year old Samsung Galaxy Tab4 10.1 tablet which has now gone into the continuous rebooting cycle. I have done numerous factory re-sets and also gone into safe mode but the rebooting continues. Can anyone give me any help on this issue please or do I have to put the tablet into touch and fork out for a new one? I am not very conversant with Android and tablets so if anyone has anything to suggest perhaps it could be in words of one syllable please. Many thanks

    Sorry I don't know much about the Android OS either, and you seem to have done everything that I could suggest with factory resets and safe mode.

    Might be time to visit a local repair shop, send it to or visit a Samsung service centre, or as you say get a new one.

    Thanks for that. The nearest Samsung service centre is more than 100 miles round trip and I don't drive. I've approached the local three repairers who all threw up their hands in despair and advised that a replacement would probably be the cheapest and most reliable option! They all suggested an iPad but as I want/need quite a lot of storage space the expense is out of the question as they do not have a microSD card option. One would have looked at it but he didn't hold out much hope so I've gone for the replacement option and have just ordered a new one.
