OK, you are going to have to wait for the battery to run out, then:-
- Ensure the device is powered off.
- Press and hold the Volume Up and Power buttons.
- Continue to hold Volume Up and Power buttons until the Android Recovery screen appears (about 10-15 seconds) then release both buttons. ...
- From the Android Recovery screen, select Wipe data/factory reset. ...
- Select Yes.
