Normal Developer Mode Procedure not working - 10e Lenovo Chromebook Tablet - Chromebooks

So I wanted to put my new Lenovo 10e into developer mode so I could install non-playstore apps on it........The method that is universally shown online is to power down the device, then hold volume up, volume down and power button all at the same time for 5-9 seconds.
In all the dozen or more videos Ive watched and articles the screen goes into a special menu and they click this then that and boom.... Developer mode.
Mine does not do that. the light on the power button lights up and the screen stays blank..... That's it...... No menu, no nothing.
Is this tablet different in some way? Is there a different procedure I need to do?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just did it to mine!! Follow what @AMilkyDeveloper says at this reddit link:

then, when you get to the correct white screen follow up with the proper choices in this youtube video:
Profit!! Good luck mate

Hey I forgot to quote you and the youtube won't post for some reason? Oh well, search for "Octillionth Tech" on youtube, he made a video about choices to follow on the white screen.

This tutorial is to enable developer mode on a Lenovo Duet

[Q] Stuck in APX mode - I believe?

Hi everyone
I'm desperate.
My TF201 (stock - not rooted - and successfully updated to the current version) works flawlessly for the first 3 months and then one day the Volume UP key stop working. Whenever I tried to lower the volume, it will automatically up it again. When this happened, I tried to reboot with the power button but the tablet wouldn't respond. So I pressed the power button a bit longer and it will shut down. But, when I tried to power it again, I will feel the buzz but the screen will remain blank. The first few times that this happened, I used a small pin to reset the tablet and it will reboot normally. However, now this procedure also has stopped working and I cannot get the tablet to boot again. When I plugged it into my PC, it will recognize it as an APX device. I found that if I let the battery drain completely, it will then power up. I have read and tried the different methods mentioned in the forum but to no avail. So after reading sledgie's post in one of the thread, I thought that perhaps the Volume UP key is definitely stuck and that's why it's booting in the APX mode every time. So, I bite the bullet and open the tablet to see if I can fiddle with the volume keys. But alas, even after making sure that the volume key is not getting stuck, the nightmare continues and every time to boot the tablet I have to let the battery drained completely. What I could gather though is that it's definitely the Volume UP key because every time if I could get the tablet to boot, after draining the battery completely of course, when the ICS Home screen will appear the volume icon also will appear by itself. I found that so long as I don't the touch the Volume key, the tablet will work flawlessly and I could press the power button to get it to sleep and to wake normally. But if I touch the Volume key then the power button will not respond.
So, as I said I'm desperate and if anybody has a solution, please advise.
Thanks in advance.
Help!
Anyone?
i think you should exchange it or send it back for RMA. Make sure you contact Gary Key with regards to APX state. I wrote in the other thread without seeing this thread, but this is what it sounds like.

Another kind of situation that nvflash would be useful.

agreed.
Sorry to respond very late but I want to know what this 'nvflash' means and how will it be useful in my situation. Should I 'nvflash' my tablet in the circumstances?
It's not possible yet, unfortunately. Asus retains the locked bootloader key. We have a way to flash it (SBK I believe) but without the unlocked bootloader, we are not able to proceed further. This is unfortunate for both sides - customer and Manufacturer

[GUIDE] Fixing Your Power Button

Hello everyone!
I'm new to this website.
And while I was on this website, I was trying to look for ways to fix my Power Button on my Verizon Galaxy Note 2.
I spent hours and hours pressing the button, plugging into my computer, or simply stressing out without my phone.
For this reason, I am going to give you guys a solution to this problem.
Unfortunately, this website will not let me link a Youtube video.
Go on youtube, and look up "Disassemble Galaxy Note 2"
Press the first link, and you'll be good!
Note: This video is not owned by me. I give all credits to the Youtube user.
This link will show you a step by step way to disassemble your Galaxy Note 2
All you really have to do is push out your button on the outer case. And also just make sure that your actual button makes a "click" sound. If that's all done, your button will be fixed.
Hope this helps a tad.
what was wrong with the power button?
I usually use the home button instead of my power button.

Atrix stuck at Boot Logo - no fastboot, no status light

So I've had my atrix unlocked for some time and have had Epinter's android 4.2.1 running on it smoothly. One day I tried to turn it on and it would only go to the boot logo screen (Motorola for stock) and i cant enter fastboot by using the volume keys. Further, the status light never lights up. This may have happened about a week after installing winterboard (port from iOS) probably a dumb choice, but.
can anyone advise if this is bricked, or a way i can get into fastboot and wipe the thing? any advice is appreciated
no input?! I just read somewhere i may be get it into AP fastboot by holding down both volume keys and power button. would love to get this phone working again!

So if you read something, why haven't you taken the initiative to try it out?
I have. And no luck. just says unlocked and will not toggle through options (fastboot etc). I included it in the post so it wasnt a lame 'bump' post. but thanks for your lame bump post.

Just so we are sure, you were holding down the 'Vol down' key while simultaneously pressing the 'Power' button and the text 'Fastboot' didn't show up, is that right?
Also, did the phone have CWM installed?
Yes. clockwork is installed. Yes I held volume down and power.
If you notice when you cold boot your phone a status light appears before the splash screen, and then turns off. Mine.. Doesnt ever turn on.
Sent from my MB860 using xda app-developers app
^ Unfortunately, that does not sound good at all. Did you have the 'fastboot' options (and the other menu items) enabled before? Would you happen to know exactly what made it go away? Because without that support, there's very little you can do.
You could try charging the battery separately, but I'm not so sure. We might need to know what was done/flashed to get into this state.
Press power + volume up, does it do something?
yes I previously had the option to go into fastboot and the other options (bypass motoblur etc) neither volume up nor volume down get me to the other options - it only stays at saying 'unlocked'.
Maybe the volume keys are broken?
I did install Winterboard by Saurik and that may have caused this problem.
I have used a different battery/charged the battery separately and still nothing.

Help needed asap

Guys i was in my settings a few minutes ago and i came across a feature which enabled me to open up my notifications by just tapping the screen so i enabled it and went to the homescreen to test it! Upon tapping the screen the phone started maing a beeping noise and a blue line started scrolling continously downward on the screen! I cant turn the phone off ! I only seem to be able to reboot it which doesnt help! I needto power the phone off i assume and then maybe do a hard reset??? Advice needed please
anyone?
What setting did you access I don't believe anybody will be able to help if we don't know where you went and what you changed. The things you mention are very vague and don't really paint a picture of what is happening.
Also if you want to turn the phone off without using the on screen settings just hold onto the power button for about 10 seconds it should turn off, after that hold power, home button, and volume up to go into recovery to reset or what ever it is you please.
Also is it showing you an X and Y axis? If so then you just go into settings, developer settings, show screen updates and turn that off the grid should go away. I am not sure what your issue is but that seems like the most likely option.
