I have an Impression i7 tablet with a cracked screen and the slide to unlock bar is unresponsive. How do I perform a factory reset to disable slide to unlock?

Some forums say hold the power and camera buttons at the same time but the problem is, there's external camera button. Others say to hold the volume rocker and power at the same time but that didn't work either.

 
If it's got a cracked screen, you basically need to replace the screen. The touch side of things is probably pretty much completely broken.

It's usually a combination of holding either volume up or down and the power button, while the tablet is off. If it has a hardware home button, you may need to hold that too.
