[Q] Fusion5 Tablet - stuck on 'android' screen - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This is the Fusion5 in question
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01CCYEIW2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I tried rooting the tablet using kingoroot - both the Android app & the PC program..All 'failed' - but tablet was still running ok, so I'm guessing it's not possible to root it with these programs
Anyway, I accidentally left the battery to drain out, causing it to turn off - so started recharging it.
Once I thought it had enough charge I tried turned on the tablet, saw the White 'Fusion5' title screen followed by the black 'android' text screen... but now it's stuck on the android screen
So I've tried:-
> Turning off/on by power switch - same thing (White Fusion5/Black android screens)
> Press the small 'reset' hole on the back - same thing
> Tired different combo's of Power button/ vol +/vol - buttons - same thing
Have I bricked it ??
Is there a way to get the thing to boot up into recovery.. if so what's the button combo's ? or is there some other way using PC
IS there a recovery mode for this tablet or did kingoroot wipe it/corrupt it somehow ??
Any help greatly appreciated
EDIT: btw further searching seems to show theres a 'kingroot' and a 'kingoroot'
- but 'kingroot' website [https://kingroot.net] doesn't exist but a google search shows kingroot [https://king-root.net/] however the download is being picked up by Virus checker as malware

Has it booted far enough to retrieve a logcat?
If ADB is responding, adb reboot recovery is another hope.

Thanks for the quick reply however the main reason I went 'kingoroot' was for simplicity since I don't know anything about ADB
(I know of it, just not how to use it)
Anyway,tried following one of the many guides (this one in fact)
but when I do 'adb devices' it's not showing anything, although it's possible something is conflicting because even though my Samsung phone shows up when I plug it in, doing 'adb devices' shows nothing - I would've expected the Samsung to show up at least
I'll have more time during weekend to try & figure out why phone not showing in ADB & experiment with ADB a bit more

[Q] Bricked my phone... another one bites the dust

YUP. I "soft bricked" my t-mobile galaxy s (vibrant here in the us) or so I hope. The phone was rooted via z4 on the latest android t959uvji6 from t-mobile.
How did i do it? Brick my phone that is...
The 3d gallery was pissing me off by picking up everything on the phone. I tried clearing the default setting via the manage app but nothing changed so I decided to delete it. First backing up the apk and odex file from the system folder with titanium backup then deleted them from the system folder via root explorer. Rebooted the phone, pulled out the battery, waited for 30 seconds or so, popped in the battery and booted up the phone w/o any issues.
I tried installing the backup 3d gallery apk file and got the "app not installed" error on numerous attempts. Then tried simply copying it over again with ti backup and nothing happens. Gave up and said the heck with and went the factory restore route, got all the relevant apps installed and tried reinstalling the 3d gallery apk but resulting in the same "app not installed" error prompt. So I again copied over the apk and odex file into the system folder. Rebooted and nothing... phone does not boot into the home screen.
At this point here is what the phone is able to do.
It will boot up and display the default galaxy s animation, goes through it's array of colors then comes to a stop at all white letters then the screen goes blank and nothing happens - zip. nadda. i left it on for 12hrs like that - blank screen w/all the hard keys lit up.
What i did notice was win7x64 recognizes the phone after it gets into the blank screen of death as mass storage units.
So far i've tried booting into the recovery screen via the three button method and none of them works.
Did the karma-volume up-home-power twist - nothing
Did the karma-volume down-home-power roll - nothing
Did the karma-volume up and down-power jiggy - nothing
I tried the key combos for about 2hrs without any success then jumped into adb. After reading for a bit I realized that the phone was still rooted and the debug mode was enabled the last time i shutdown the phone (good'ol ti-backup)
For a while there adb did not recognize the phone at all but with an odd power cycling while spamming "adb reboot recovery" it was able to finally nab hold of the phone and jump into the recovery console. At first I thought it was pure luck so unplugged everything and tried it again - works every time if i did the odd out of sequence power cycle while spamming the adb console with "adb reboot recovery".
In the reboot recovery - deleted the user data and did the restore.
Here's where I think I really screwed up - now the phone is no longer in debug mode.
Long story short - is there a way to get into the recovery screen w/o debug mode on?
**quickly pulls on flack jacket**
but seriously any suggestions would be great
Wrong section bro. You probably won't get an answer here.
To answer your question. Yes, Remove Battery, Plug your phone to USB, Press and hold the volume down and the power button Put the batter back on. This should get you into download mode. Use ODIN to restore.
the usb jig trick did the work - now i have two phones!!!! (bought the nexus s yesterday) lol
Time to ODIN.
To access Download mode.
Unplug. press volume up and down togheter, and connect USB. VOILA!
If ODIN does not recognize it, plug and unplug again

no!
Why the hell are people giving others ideas on how to get into download when their doing it wrong.
its JUST THE VOLUME BUTTONS, NOT THE POWER BUTTON ALONG WITH IT.
volume + power = Recovery, which in this case you probably cant get into
Volume - Power = Download mode, which everyone can get into unless if they somehow hard bricked, if its possible.

[Q] LG Vortex stuck at boot screen, can anyone help to get into recovery mode?

I rooted my LG recently to get rid of the crapware that was on by default. But, of course, it wasn't enough for me. I tried to flash a new ROM, and everything went to hell. Now the boot screen won't go past the LG logo. Does anyone know how to reset the device back to factory standard?
Hard reset doesn't work (home + volume down / up + power)
Windows/Linux doesn't see the plugged in device.
adb doesn't see the plugged in phone
I tried to put cyanogenmod on, which was probably a bad idea. I've heard that this problem may be irreperable, and I just want to see if there's any way to avoid having to try and deal with Verizon.
Before flashing (using rom manager), I made sure to choose the backup the current rom option. I've heard that I should be able to restore that backup, but there's no way to actually connect to the phone at the moment.
Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: I've gained access to the SD card by plugging it into an external reader. I can see the recovery image that clockwork made. How can I get the phone to boot into it?

I read a few posts mentioning that they were able to reset their phone using their ac adapter, but I hadn't any luck trying it that way, until a good friend of mine used some google-fu to determine that the order in which you do things matters! Here's the steps I had to take:
Remove battery from phone
Begin holding power, volume down and home
Plug phone into ac power WITHOUT LETTING GO OF BUTTONS (wasn't easy for me either)
Phone should boot into recovery (in my case the custom recovery)
You can let go of those buttons now
Install battery
Flash your phone and rejoice!
THANK YOU! The part I wasn't getting was the plugging into A/C while holding the buttons down...you're a lifesaver!!!
This did not work for me. I tried putting the phone into recovery mode, but it still just booted up as normal. I'm running out of ideas and patience here...

Lgtools
estoy en la misma situacion, yo cuento lgtools de Setool Box3, la cual soporta lectura y escritura de sistema de Lg vortex vs660, pero no logro que me lo detecte para cargar firmware completo, mi problema fue que flashe el recovery desde el ROM MANAGER y se queda en el logo.
I recovered my friend's phone using the following procedure
I just fixed a friends phone so I thought I would share in case it helps anyone. This is for the LG Vortex on Verizon. Might work for other carriers.
Download and install the Vortex drivers from LG's mobile support site www dot lg dot com/us/support/mc-support/mobile-phone-support.jsp
Download and install the LG Mobile Update utility www dot lg dot com/us/support/mc-support/mobile-phone-support.jsp
Run the LG Update app and make sure your phone is up to date. You can also try the Recover option if it can't update. This phone's firmware was up to date.
Install the Android SDK from google.
Access backdoor recovery through ADB
Plug phone in to laptop usb
Press and hold down the volume down key, the home key, and the power key at the same time. Keep them pressed until the screen goes black then you can release. If it goes in to some other visible recovery you can simply skip some of these steps
At this point your computer should start to recognize the phone and go through a series of driver installs
Once that is complete you should be able to go to the command line and enter the ADB shell
Follow the procedure at the following link to get the clockworkmod recovery installed
androidforums dot com/getitnowmarketing/330813-all-one-recovery-thread.html
Once you are able to boot in to clockwork, immediately do a backup. Then clear your data, cache and dalvik cache, then reboot. This won't always work, but many times it will allow you to boot a ROM that gets stuck booting (like this phone). If that doesn't work then just go back to recovery and utilize a manual ROM flashing procedure you can find on many forums.
This process worked great on this phone so hopefully someone else may have similar luck.
Sorry for cutting up the links, i'm new to the forum. Just replace the "dot"s with . obviously.
Try this worked for me
Here's a different method of unbricking your vortex V660. With limited support and methods for this device it seems to make everything more complicated in finding a soluttion around certain but complex problems. I tried to use some of the other metheds listed on android central and XDA...such as, taking the battery out, holding home, vol -/+ and power key at the the same time the phone back in while it was connected to the computer. I wasnt able to get anywhere with these methodes,I also thought qbout trying the unbutu method to unbrick it then I thouht that was to much of an effott. I read all the comments and differnt methods and decide it wasn't worth the risk, I re-woked a different method for unbricking, there's prob about a 90% possibility of it working for your LG.This just happenes to be my own solution or workaround if you find yourself screwed like i did with no type of support.
The reason this didn't work was because I didn't have cwm installled nor did the phone have the original firmware installed, my mistake, I wiped that off too, happenes when you have to much to drink lol, the hard reset buttons were a no go as well since they take you into cwm or the orignal firware from verizon {all mine did was take me to a black screen because there was nothing there for it to load.} Some how or another all was wiped clean and I was in a catch 22 while being bricked. I found the vs660 recovery firmware but I knew i really didn't need to install it so i didn'nt.The bricked happened after I installed Titanium Backup then uninstalled launcher pro so then I restarted and got to the point where the ring Fire or boot animation was trying to load ,and it just just hung there. I don't care for the app launcher pro I would rather use awd launcher, if u haven't noticed you have to pay for the pro version of launcher pro just to rezize widets, so im wondering why this app was added to the Rom Cyan7.2 in the first place. So with no cwm, no stock image, and no way to make an sdcard boot into m to unbrick it my hopes and last resort were to pray that.I had usb debugging enabled.
First thing you have to install is called jdk-7u3-windows-i586] the other file called installer_r_windows wont't allow you to install until the install of JDK is complete.It'd ok to lauch the installer-r26-windows first because it ill drnf you directly to the site to downloadthe JDK file. Install these two programs first, (google how to ADB tutoria if needed? So after downloading that you will need to download the right drivers (for the voerex) Software name (Driver_WHQL_ML_Ver_4.9.7_All_Win7_LGEAll)(Google Search It)} There's 1 other thing we to have to do before seeing if your decice is listed in ADB. We need to add a line to the Envioronment Varibles section under System Variables at the bottom. Here's how to get there in Win7, right click on my computer, advanced tab, at the bottom Environmental Variblesm, click itlook down under system variables and scrooldowm until you see something called Path and add this line to end of it, ofcourse clickit edit then copy and past his line including the semicolon ;c:\android-sdk-windows\tools;c:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools now save it amd exit. The reason this is done is so we won't have to contantly navigate through cmd prompt to the directory and list commands. This is prevent you from have to navigate to the folder evertime u want to run the program or any cmds. Now that were all setup lets connect to you phone's data cable to the pc and the phone, and again make sure abd debugging is enabled. Settings, applications, development, the check in the box for debugging, if it's not enabled you will get the turn on usb feature your phone so not what we want. Now opem the cmd prompt run the cmd cd.. then cd.. now you should C:\>, you can run the cmd adb devices now hit enter and you you see a long 14 to 16 digit # then that means your devices is succesfully connected and talking to your PC.That long # should be your MEID HEX# to your phone if you dont see that and you see somethine else then go back though the guide to see if you missed something during setup. If setep properlly in the cmd prompt type adb devices and your phone will automactically show its long#, after that type the cmd adb reboot at which point through cmd promt the device will reboot itself. Here a little secret just because you don't have youtr verison's orignal firmware nor a working ROM on you phone such as froyo 2.2.1 or 2.2.2 doesn't mean anything, you are still rooted and wont have to downgrade to 2.2.1. Side note ( z4root didn't work for my lg vortex, I tried gingerbreak 1.10 and later gingerbreak 1.2 which both worked just fine, z4root just hung on my phone, sry i bounced off topic but i took me 24 hrs of troubleshooting till I got it back up and running.
This method I would say this only applies to the ones that don't have cwm installed on their internal drive it acccidently wiped the original firware off their phones and don't have anything to boot into. I don't have the orignal verizon stock installed, essentially you hit the same buttons on the phone to do a hard reset or to boot into recovery as you normally would. If you neiher on your phone then ADB is your saving grace. Another tutorial I seen was something about installing ubuntu lunux, it just seemed liked to muck work for me, plus I didn't want linux on my box anyways, not til im ready for building a linux kluster later.
let get started...go and download the Adb software which is called Android-debug-brigde...you will also have a visual demo to guide you through the setup) (ADB file) name installer_16-windows,install this this file last to the root of C:/ once done its location will look like this c:\android-sdk-windows ( this is important to make sure you extract the exe to C:/android-sdk-windows (you can take advantage of youtube's a great resourse for viual walkthroughs} or google it,.i have had to do i know's our there , well if you more of a reader search google or xda it will breakdown the core or the installing of the actual files can't post links here but you have to post a minimum if 8 tines b4 you can post links outside this site.
Once all that's setup you need to confirm that its linked properly. Phone off or on during this process I wouldn't think it matters,my devices were on, so conntect you data cable to you usb port and the other end to your phone where you normally power it. This is the time you better hope USB Degugging is enabled. If it is you will see the little Android character and something that looks like a usb icon in the status bar of your phpne, so if you pull down your status bar is will tell your if you are in use debugging mode,. in the status bar depending on where your bricked. if you are in a booploop all its going to do it make that noise of connecting and disconnting. you may have to find fifferent approach to fix it, only solution I can give you if to try home, vol +, and power down til you get a black screen and hope it hangs there there long enough to so you clear it. So it this aproach words on a bootloop let me know in the comments.
Once everything looks good open up your device manager
Just under your computer mame u should see somethig called ADB Interface
under that from the drop arrow you will see android plactform sooner single ADB Interface, click on that and you will see android plattform sooner single ADB Interface, then under modems you will see LGE Android Platform USB Modem, and last at the bottom your youw will see universal serial bus controllers, select that and you should your see LGE Android Platform Composite USB Device, If you see all that that your 100% convered
Now to get your phone out of that nasty brick and we don't need need any firware or Roms to do it...
Open cmd prompt, type cd.. then cd.. again now your in C:\>
now type cd android/sdk/system (note the CD just means change directories) now were in the folder called c:\android-sdk-windows
From this directory is where were going to run our commands since we can't do it in cwm.
type wipe system and hit enter
wipe system you will see a alot of errors like it didnt do anything but that's ok next step
type wipe data hit enter
once done pull cable reboot phone wait to it to come up to where to you have to touch the andoid like your setting up the phone for the first time again, warming u more that lickly will get an FC during setup and it will brick again on the same screen. Repeat wipe system and wipe data again, the gp though the setup on the phone again, if have have another FC one last time so again wipe system then wipe data, this time there shouldn't be anymmore FCs, I have to go through wipe system and data 3 times b4 the FC's stooped and I will able to to to the activaton screen > My phone is a refurb so if would let me past the activation screen this time as when im loading up in CM7. last issue I faced was the accivation screen, Now I did some reading on this and there are a couple of thing you can one of which worked for me., You can tap the four counrers in the clockwise direction which didn't work for me, or what did, I click activcate then entered *228 then hung up, avtivate again *228 hungup, then activate again,*228 hugnup and this time I was able to skip activation anb and was again to load cwm and flash my phone, so its not longer bricked and I dont have to worry about the avivation all though it will comes up U can stip it and It wont keep me from me phone, I have VIOP setup over my 4g LTE, any questions about this type hack just let me know, ( I have an 18 Page Paper about how it works how to set it up, its free and no download charge for the APK) and I will post it. Forwaring the paper 18 pages long and pretty in depth, I dont explain the backend of how it works but just a little, its mainly the frontend and to set it up and all the routing.

Vortex sux
Okay ... so my vortex is nothing more than a paper weight at the moment. When I turn it on, the LG screen comes on for 3 seconds, then the screen goes blank, then it starts over again. I can't turn it off after it starts its boot loop. I have tried using the recovery keys, and nothing. If I plug it into the computer it will turn on and do the loop over and over again, and i still cant power off. I have a 4gb micro with cwm recovery, but i do not know how to get this phone to boot into the cwm recovery. your help would be appreciated.
Here's what worked for me

I was in a similar situation and was able to get to recovery by taking out the battery, holding down the buttons required to get into recovery and then while holding down the buttons, plugging the phone into the wall charger. Once it was in recovery I put the battery back in and flashed back to a known good rom. Not sure why this worked over just turning it on normally, but it's worth a shot.

[Q] Boot Loop on LE I/O 10.1 need help!

Hey Guys, could sure use your help... i updated my 10.1 le yesterday and that went thru fine. Later on i was playing and watching youtube and it sent my tablet into a boot loop and i cant seem to fix it. any help would be appreciated thanks in advance.
Mine did the same thing when i was streaming music. Not even Odin brought it back. I used adb to reboot into stock 3e recovery and wipe data/factory reset it, then used Odin to grt back to 3.0.1. Then i just redownloaded the 3.1 update. Hope that helps

right now im having problems with adb listing the devices. adb is installed. it keeps saying that i need some APX drivers???
Drivers are here:
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/GT-P7510UWYXAR
I had the same problem. This is what i did. Since I had already rooted my tablet, I already had in my laptop ADB and the driver for the tablet. If you don't have these 2 things, I suggest you go to the development section of this forum, look for the insrltructions on how to root, and download what you need.
I connected my tablet then went into cmd mode (DOS MODE), then typed adb reboot recovery. From there the tablet rebooted into recovery. I then wiped data and cache. Then I rebooted and it went fine, no more bootloop. In settings I noticed that it had reverted back to 3.0.1 so I just did update again. Since then my tablet has been smooth as butter.

For those not too comfortable with ADB, I just installed PDAnet (for the fastboot drivers) and after booting to fastboot (holding power and the volume down button and selecting the USB symbol) I used the "fastboot -w" command in CMD.exe to wipe the device.
Its rather strange that a lot of people are having problems. Mine started after getting an error turning on the WIFI chip. Thank god for Titanium Backup's option to sync with Dropbox. Hope this helps.

THANK YOU!! Your suggestion of installing PDAnet saved me! I was having a hell of a time trying to get the right drivers so my computer would recognize the tablet has an adb device. After installing PDAnet, it was a cinch. Then I reflashed everything, wiped userdata and cache, and rebooted (I followed the instructions found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14600617&postcount=111) Now my tab is working again and I was getting ready to ship it off to Samsung so they could re-flash it for me.

Obviously I have installed adroid-sdk and download fastboot from HTC page.
I'm one of the lucky ones who has had their I/O tab stuck in a boot loop on 3.1, and after trying the steps below, I am not getting it to work. I know I must be making a stupid mistake somewhere along the line, but essentially,
I downloaded the new image, boot, and recovery files into a directory on my hard drive;
I installed PDAnet;
I entered into fastboot on my GTab and plugged it into my PC;
I can tell that fastboot is now listed as a device (I suspect this means that the drivers are installed correctly and that it is recognizing a fastboot device);
Now when I try to run the fastboot commands suggested, I get 'fastboot' is not recognized as an internal or external command...
Stupid question, but I am supposed to run this command from cmd.exe, right? Any ideas what I am doing wrong so that the fastboot commands are not recognizable? I may need a dumbed down instruction set if there are steps I am missing somewhere...

Edit:
After trying just about everything, I have concluded there are two hurdles I still cannot pass. First, if I fastboot my device, and select the USB icon, my device is appearing in my windows device list. However, I cannot run any fastboot commands in cmd.exe window. Not sure why or what else is needed. Second, I successfully installed SDK and tried to enter recovery mode through ADB, but I cannot find the magic trick to have my device appear in ADB. ODINing back to stock did not make a difference. If I can get past either of these hurdles I am confident I can progress, so any suggestions are appreciated.
fastboot commands never seem to work for me. Always says waiting for device.

Which makes me wonder if I am doing something wrong. I can't even get fastbook command to be recognized. It's as if there is some fastboot software needed so that my pc knows what to do when I type fastboot. I hoped SDK was enough, took a stab with a fastboot.exe from htc I found on another forum, neither worked. How did you get your pc to look for your device from fastboot in the first place?

Hi .. I have the same problems before
I found out that the new ADB has moved the directory to "platform-tools"
This renders the fastboot useless "winapiadb.dll"(or something) file not found pop up window
I got that ridiculous bootloop issue right in the middle of the flight! thought I bought a $$$ junk lol
use the fastboot -w option to recover .. but it resets the whole tablet back to OE (original everything)
Hey guys,
So I have one of the Limited Edition Google IO Galaxy Tab 10.1's and I can't find a more updated thread than this. It seems this problem is isolated or mostly isolated to the Limited Edition tabs?
Anyways, I've read through the thread (as well as many other resources) and I just don't understand what I'm supposed to do to defeat the boot loop problem.
For me, pressing the Power and Volume up button (or Power and Volume down button) doesn't do a thing. The tablet does not respond at all. The only thing other than the boot loop is that I can get it into "upload mode" whatever that is.
This thread doesn't mention upload mode, so I don't know how to proceed. I can't seem to find anything in the manual about this sort of hard reset, nor can I find any information anywhere else.
Also, I've read this thread, and I do not have any familiarity with what the following software projects are: Odin, PDAnet, and APX Drivers. I also have not used the android SDK.
Also, in the third post chris eckman posted a link to some sort of Galaxy Tab drivers on samsung's site, which is now a broken link.
Anyways, while I'm a noob to the XDA community, I am a computer engineer, and I'm confident I won't have any trouble recovering this device. There's just so much conflicting information and alternatives methods that I'm not sure how to proceed.
It seems like a tutorial might exist out there that I have not yet found?
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Hey guys,
So I have one of the Limited Edition Google IO Galaxy Tab 10.1's and I can't find a more updated thread than this. It seems this problem is isolated or mostly isolated to the Limited Edition tabs?
Anyways, I've read through the thread (as well as many other resources) and I just don't understand what I'm supposed to do to defeat the boot loop problem.
For me, pressing the Power and Volume up button (or Power and Volume down button) doesn't do a thing. The tablet does not respond at all. The only thing other than the boot loop is that I can get it into "upload mode" whatever that is.

Ok, well if you are running a "stock" IO bootloader, then you should have fastboot and download modes accessible to you by using the volume down and power button combo.
Have you ever gotten to this menu before? If not, then you just aren't doing it right. Let go of the power button part of this combo once the samsung logo appears, and then you should see two icons appear. If you have an IO bootloader, then you are going to go into fastboot mode, and then use fastboot to get your recovery booted. Once you get CWM booted, you can flash a stock ROM, load up stock recovery and wipe this sucker back to factory, and then fastboot your CWM recovery and install Task650's latest rom and be bootloop free. Let me know if you need further help.
Alright, first things first. Yes, this tablet is 100% stock, and I've done one major Android update, but it was not the one that broke everyone's wireless.
----------
So going step by step:
you should have fastboot and download modes accessible to you by using the volume down and power button combo. Have you ever gotten to this menu before?
So, I did once get to what I believe was the "fastboot" menu. I had four options available to me, the first one was something like "repair boot process" which I selected, because I was having a boot problem. It did nothing, and now I cannot get back to that menu.
I did get to the USB upload screen once by accident, when I was trying to get back to the boot menu, but not knowing what to do at that point. I had to shut it off.
Let go of the power button part of this combo once the samsung logo appears, and then you should see two icons appear.
Which Samsung logo? If I press both the power button and volume up or down, I get nothing. Nothing happens. If I press the power button first and then two seconds later start holding down the volume button, then eventually I get the blue swirly samsung screen. At the end of that, the samsung logo is clear. But waiting a bit longer, after about 30 seconds of blank screen, a pulsing white Samsung logo comes up, and I've never known which samsung logo to stop holding the power button. I believe I've tried every combination imaginable, and none of them work.
If you have an IO bootloader Do you mean Google I/O Stock bootloader? If not, I have no idea what this is in reference to.
Once you get CWM booted No idea what that is.
you can flash a stock ROM Where do I get that?
-------------
My bootloop might be different from everyone else's. Everyone else says "shut off the device, and then turn it on with the volume down/up held down. The problem with mine is that it NEVER shuts off! So, I can only do about 2 tests per day, because the only way I can shut it off is to let the battery run dead.
Mine switches from boot loop, and if I force that off, by holding down the power button for 10-15 seconds, then it immediately boots back up into "going into upload mode, cause unknown" If I force that screen off, it boots into the boot loop, so I can never boot from a "powered off" mode, again, unless I let the battery run dead.
I've tried every button pressing boot sequence I can think of with no luck. Can't I just upload something to the device in "upload mode" ? I don't need any data off this device, I just want it to be reset back to day 1, so that I can turn it on and use it.
Thanks so much for your help. As you might imagine, this is a very frustrating problem.

[Q] Neutab N7 tablet bootloader/fastboot?

I have a fairly generic Chinese tablet, a Neutab N7 (not a Nexus 7), but I have no idea how to enter the bootloader/fastboot mode.
Using adb, "adb reboot bootloader" or "adb reboot-bootloader" just makes it reboot normally.
From a shell, doing "su reboot bootloader" also reboots normally.
I tried Quick Boot from Google Play which has an option to reboot into the bootloader, but it also just ends up rebooting normally.
While powered off, I tried holding power and volume up, power and volume down, and power and both volume up and down, but they all just boot normally.
Doing "adb reboot recovery" does boot me into recovery mode, but the menu doesn't have a bootloader/fastboot option.
Does anyone have any idea how to enter the bootloader/fastboot mode for this tablet? Any help would be appreciated.

why do you want to enter the bootloader? and have they made any roms or cwm recovery for these types of generic android tablets?
[RESOLVED] finally, ROOT for Neutab N7 pro tablet.

Having been looking for this information myself i'm sharing real quick here what i've found. Scouring the net all over i've found NOTHING specific for these Chinese tablets but after finally getting on the scent of VROOT I downloaded and tried iROOT essentially a one-click rooter the .APK **DID NOT WORK** but the PC version **DID** can be found by googling iroot or vroot.
RE: bootloader, i've still found no way or any good info on entering the bootloader AFAIK this is locked and may not be possible without some good hard hacking on the firmware, I DO KNOW that if you try entering the "bootloader" with a reboot manager on the device u will find yourself at the "NeuTab" welcome screen and stuck. Fortunately at least in my experience, letting the tablet battery run down low you can boot back into it and root condition is still good.
Hope this helps somewhat I know its an old post but a lot of people have been looking for this info have yet to post on authors site confirming that the NeuTab also works with his software.
peace.
VE3UND
BTW I forgot to mention the site and the software (ALTHOUGH IT STATES OTHERWISE) is in Chinese. A leap of faith needed there I know but i confirm this method works. l8z
BTW^2 ALSO the android version was KitKat as received from the mfg, also have been told that Jellybean will install on the tablet after rooting and maybe is now included with device but don't quote me on that.
all in all a really nice tab for the price, especially now we have root biggest missing option: GPS but you can tether to another device with gps if you need to. Also no built in USB HOST MODE. //out
I've got the NeuTab N10 and can't get ADB to see it at all. How did you get ADB to work with your N7, were you able to find NeuTab ADB drivers somewhere?
So i recently came across this tablet in my stuff... something i picked up for the wife a few years back.
I also came across this website.... http://neutab.com/info-detail.php?InfoId=11
It has all the tools and programs that the company uses. includes all files for development of their entire line of tablets.
Thought this may be useful. just click on the link that says pheonixtools.zip and it will take you to a back end file server... This tablet is about as open sourced as it gets... so... this leads me to ask a question i have been struggling with for the last 2 years of being a member on this website...
can anyone... please... help me develop my first recovery and custom rom for this tablet? I just have never done it all the way... i have set up a couple things here and there... figured out how to strip the stock recovery and boot... but never got further than that.
Thanks for the help.
• Unzip phoenix tool.zip you just downloaded; (to open a .zip file, download WinRAR)
• In the folder of phoenix tool you just unzipped, depending on your system specs, select "drvinstaller_X64", "drvinstaller_x86" or "drvinstaller_IA64" to install tablet driver; Or you can run all three driver installer and at least one will work;
• Run "PhoenixSuit.exe", select "firmware" tab;
• Click on "Image" button, choose the firmware you just downloaded;
• Turn your tablet completely off (by press and hold power button for 20 seconds), press and hold "volume -" button, connect tablet to computer via usb cable, keep volume button held, press power button 10 times repeatedly;
• The phoenix tool should recognize the tablet. On pop-up dialog window, select if you want to format and wipe out everything on your tablet;
• The phoenix tool will start flash the firmware to the tablet. Wait till it is done;
• When upgrade is finished, disconnect your tablet from computer, press and hold power button for 10 seconds to quit upgrade mode. then press and hold power button for 2-4 seconds to turn tablet on;
Congratulations! Your tablet is now refreshed.
Ok so I have a NueTab Air 7 Android and I have talked toto their customer support which did neurologist absolutely no good. I have been trying to hard reset my tablet and do a factory reset by holding down the volume up and down keys and the power keys until it gives me the option of rebooting. However, there is no option for a factory reset. Only a Recovery mode, Fastboot mode, and Normal mode. I tired the Normal and Recovery an both sent me back to enter password that I can't rremember, which isthe why I'm resetting it lol. Finally I chose the Fastboot option and now it is stuck on that option and has been for almost an hour. It willwas not let me power off, try to hard reset, it is literally stuck. And it is a hundred percent charged. I do jot hav the optiontime to connectbe the tablet to acall Windows computer at this timetime, as the forums I have read say can possibly fix the issue. And what a surprise the customer service phone number for this specific tablet does not know how to fix it!!!!! Not surprised at all. If anyone at allthe has any ideas or knows what to do or howsomething to fix it please help meme. I'm very frustrated to say thethat least and in desperate need of help. Anything would be immensely appreciated. ~Melissa

I would love to root this tablet purely because it's my daughter's and some of the games she likes has some real funky permissions That they want! A custom rom would be nice but I will be satisfied with being able to revoke some of the permissions that the apps want to have access to.

I have yet to be able to download the zip or the firmware software. i got root with kingo pc version but that's pretty much it and I can't change the route manager because once I delete that then I don't have root anymore and can't add another one. Also I have yet to been able to get into or see download mode on this either. It just stays on the screen with the name on it and that's pretty much it. no bootloader unlock either

My phoned is dead and i dont know why!

So i was using RessurectionRemix (a version from last month) and recovery twrp 3.1.0-0 and the phone was working great!
Yesterday i left my phone charging over night and in the morning i wake up to my phone bootlooping!
So i tried different things including everything it says here https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/how-to/guide-hard-brick-fix-qualcomm-hs-usb-t3492949 without luck
I can get it into recovery and fastboot but as soon as i let the key combination go the phone stops and just shows a black screen (screen is on) and i cant get into qualcomm recovery to flash!
And the only way to shut off the phone is by holding power + vol up + vol down!
Any solution or suggestions?

connect phone to computer, try force shutdown phone by hard button, ater phone shutdown, immediately release power but keep both volume. Phone maybe will enter Qualcomm flash dead mode, and Flashone will regconize com phone (refresh nedded)
Hope you success ! And believe, if a phone can flash with Qfil or Flashone, almost that phone never die (software)
Are you able to connect to the phone via Vysor, either via Chrome browser or as a standalone app on Windows PC when you do not see anything on the phone screen? Please post if Vysor install goes thru successfully. Hope your developer options/USB debugging are on. I assume your phone boots but may have display issues either hw or sw.

Phone gets recognized but not long enough to do anything (windows makes sound but doesn't install anything and doesn't show up in device manager)
try this guide

You have mentioned that you are able to see the device in recovery and fastboot till you release the buttons - does this mean if the buttons are held say in fastboot mode you are able to see the device via "fastboot devices" or in recovery the twrp screen or nothing ever shows up at all? Are the buttons clicking properly? Check individually to make sure - particularly the power button. Does it vibrate at any point of time when you press and hold the power button? Are you able to see any backlight when you say the screen is on?
If there no backlight shine a torch or sunlight from the side of the screen to see anything at all on the screen.
Vysor reports apk not installed when it attempts to download from PC to phone but fails. With Vysor you will have two windows one showing status of phone - this is the main window. The other is the mirrored one - that of the phone when you click view on the main window. I forgot that the phone requires approval to install the apk. Please see the attached thumbnails. Keep touching the screen about 3 cms up from the bottom of the screen (not the phone) to see any change. Hope your touch works.
I know it is quite frustrating to try a number of things. I recently went thru the same on Galaxy S4 to make sure the phone but for the screen works OK prior to ordering the screen. Besides in my case developer options was disabled and touch also did not work. It took about a week of learning and trying to see something on Vysor. I never have used a Sam phone till that time this broken phone was handed over to me.
After a lot of trying i found out that when i keep pressed power + vol down or vol up while connected to pc and device is off it gets recognized as
qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 long as i keep the keys pressed so i tried the flashone method but it just says could not connect
Are Qualcomm drivers loaded on your computer? I have not used flashone. I used QPST to see if phone is connected. I am not sure if they are same.

It doesn't stay long enough in recovery or fastboot to do anything it shuts off after a few seconds even with the buttons pressed after that it just shows a black screen
Phone vibrates when i press power and shows leeco logo (not os logo) and after 1-2 seconds screen goes black and phone vibrates again and shows leeco logo again and just continues looping
if i try to press power + vol up normally it goes into recovery but as soon as recovery is loaded screen goes black (screen on just doesn't show anything) the same goes for fastboot if i press power + vol down it loads fastboot but after 1-2 seconds screen goes black
if i keep pressing keys the phone just stays longer in recovery/fastboot but only 4-5 seconds
I assume you have adb and fastboot. Since you say the screen remains on when booting to recovery open a command prompt at the directory where adb is and issue a command "adb devices" without quotes. Does it just exit without showing any device or throws up some error? Try this irrespective of the black screen.
Have you looked at and tried what is given by @HTC-TYTN2 at post #8? It is for Le Max 2 and you will find a link to Quallcomm drivers too. Do not bother that the link mentions X820 even your Max 2 is 821, 829, etc.
since it happened after charging, you might want to check your cable and battery. best is to get a cheap usb multimeter.
Gesendet von meinem LEX820 mit Tapatalk
I too thought it could be the battery based on that's the screen goes off. But he also mentioned that the screen remains on but nothing to be seen after a short while. Wanted to suggest slow speed charging probably via a laptop usb as I'm not sure if he used high speed charging resulting in battery issue.
Did you solve the problem?
My phone just died completely! No response at all anymore. I'm contacting the seller now to send the phone back.
Looks like it is a hardware defect! A pretty odd one but nothing i can do anymore. I send it back and post what the problem is as soon as get any information.
Thanks to everyone who tried to help!
