[Q] Dell Venue 7 Android Help - Factrory Reset - Lost passcode - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been everywhere including dell and as Leia dais to Obiwan "your my only hope"
I lost the passcode to start the Venue and can not find anywhere how to reset the device (without being in the android operating system already)
Dell passed me to about 10 different departments and were unable to help me, and that was after being disconnected 3 times.
I am just assuming that someone would have experience with this very basic thing.

[Q] problem with exchange sync

Hi All,
I have searched for a month tried everything I could find but it did not help.
I would appreciate any solution very much.
I have an unlocked streak with froyo. It was on 2.1 when I bought it and OTA it upgraded to 2.2. Everything was working fine including exchange sync.
After about 2 months use I needed to do a factory reset. Instead of simply doing a reset I downloaded the firmware from Dell site (same number and code). And flashed with update.pkg.
Baseband version; GAUSB1A131800-EU
Kernel Version; 2.6.32.9-perf
OEM Version; GAUSB1A131800
BUild Number; 12821
Since then my exchange sync is not working properly in calendar. I am always missing some items (seems to be random).
I did everything I could find but no luck.
I even got my IT guys to rebuild my account on the server but no luck.
I installed google calendar sync to my computer to sync with google cloud. This way I can see everything online but obviously this is not how it should be.
Any help and idea please.
So far I have done:
factory reset 10+ times
remove and add exchange account 20+ times
clear calendar data and add again 30+ times.
I have used about 10 different Windows Mobile phones/PDAs over the last 15 years and never had this.
Started to regret my switch from HD2 to streak.
please help.
thanks

Any views everyone?

Venue 7 3740 stock rom?

Hi. I had recently rooted my dell venue 7 3740. After rooting i deleted some of the system apps which were hogging the battery.
Now, after doing factory reset, the tab boots normally and enters the setup mode. But after accepting dell legal i get this error message telling
"unfortunately, com.dell.devicesetup has stopped."
I guess this has to do something with the system apps which i had deleted.
So, i am looking for stock image for my tab so that i can restore it back to normal.
Thank you

Wifi connectivity issue with Dell Venue 8 7840

I purchase a Dell Venue 8 7840 tablet a couple of days ago. This was shipped with kitkat 4.4 and after first boot, immediately got a firmware update to android 5.1.
The issue now is when tablet was on 4.4, it was able to connect to wifi perfectly and now after this update, suddenly the tablet does not recognise the wifi connection at all and apart from this - 1. password for wifi is not stored and I have to every time type in the password..............2. Even if the wifi is ON, the connection on tablet is NOT ON and it only SAVES the wifi connection.
I am now not able to connect to wifi at all.........Could this be because of firmware upgrade? Should I try by doing factory reset? Will this work?
How to resolve this?

QPulse100s Dual Boot Android/Win10

Hi all,
Newbie here that has picked up a Quantum Qpulse 100S from Dubai some time ago.
It has successfully had a Win10 update. The only thing stuck in the ages is the android side of things. (4.2.2) The built in software update check brings up a sub screen from "MobileUpdate" and then an error message saying Session Interrupted Please try later keeps coming up.
Q-Pulse100S
Android Version 4.2.2
Kernel Version 3.4.43
Build JDQ39
It is a dual boot device (factory shipped like this) but there is not a lot of support unsurprisingly.
I am wondering if there is a way of manually updating the Android version to 5.0 or even 6.
Any help would be appreciated.
Same here... but for Windows 10
Seems like we're both SOL mate. Same story here except in my case I want to make it a full-fledged Windows 10 device and try and run Bitlocker encryption on it. Also another exception for me is whereas your Win 10 upgrade succeeded, my Windows 8.1 upgrade itself failed and rolled back, forget about Win 10!
So yeah, I'm going the other way and trying to get a different version of Windows 10 on it - assuming current ver. of upgrade is Win 10 Home or something which won't let me join it to a Domain (encryption is for remote access to work network).
I did get the tablet to boot into bios by attaching a usb keyboard to it! So there might be a way to "root" it after all, just not that many enterprising hackers around for this device I guess.
If you happen to find a solution, please do let me know at [email protected]. I would appreciate the update, thanks!
Password Issue
Hello Team, Hope you are well & doing fine.
I purchased a Tablet - Quantum Q-Pulse 100s from Deira City Center Dubai. After purchasing I added a password but now don't remembered the password.
I was in Dubai for business trip (Week Only), Now I am in Pakistan (Home Country). So I need your help to resolve my issue. Window login is working okay because just password added in android section.
Please let me know the procedure, how to reset my tablet to factory settings to remove the password from my tablet. "press the power button and volume (minus) at the same time.. Msg will be pop up.." said method is also not worked.
Looking forward for your favorable reply.
