I have a 3 year old iPad pro (12.9inch) thats stuck on the Apple Logo. (Family member device, not mine, so not sure if M1 or something earlier).

When it runs flat, if you plug it in, it gets stuck right on the apple logo. You can reboot the device with (Vol Up, Vol Down, Hold Power till screen black) - gets stuck again.

Have put device in DFU mode, computer cannot see the iPad (Cable works on other devices). At least I assume its DFU mode, the blank screen is all I can go off there.

Can't see to turn the device just off, holding the power does nothing.

Can't put into recovery mode (Vol Up, Vol Down, Hold Power till screen shows something), always goes straight back to Apple Logo.

Anything else I can try? Have let it just sit and make sure it's not just doing an update or anything.
