Hey All,

I woke this morning and grabbed my N7 to read what's on tap for today. For some reason the screen was totally unresponsive. Haven't had any problems with it since I've bought it about a month ago, but now I can't seem to unlock the screen or do a reset since the touchscreen isn't working.

Is there a way to do a reset that doesn't involve the lockscreen?
 
Should be hold down power button and volume down (or up).

You should be able to power down by pressing and holding down only the power button for about 10 seconds or so. Then power up again as you normally would, and see if the touchscreen is responsive.
 
had the same problem, powered down for ten seconds like the thread said and restarted, worked perfect, thanx
