I'll preface this with a "I might be missing something obvious, because I'm new to this". However, I've read and searched extensively and tried everything that I can find. Here's the details:
Acer Iconia Tab A500-10S08c (MFB date: Dec 2011)
Purchased used and bricked. Story goes that was playing Netflix and froze.
Now: hangs on boot on Acer logo. Vol- and Power load into Android robot logo, but will not load update.zip from SD card, and changes to dead Android robot logo with red exclamation mark.
Can boot into APX mode (reset+power 3 seconds – white power led – blank screen).
Can wipe cache (power+vol up+toggle lock switch).
Was able to get UID and SBK from Linux.
However that is where the good news ends. It gets stuck regardless of method I’ve tried. Below are the results from all the methods I’ve tried:
:good:Manual Flash with V8-UNL-ICS-HC-Bootloader-MULTI-cwm
Goes smoothly until in “Acer Iconia APX Mode” (on screen with yellow acer logo). Results:

[Q] totally bricked a500
I have a fully bricked Acer A500. It works only APX mode. It isn't rooted and there isn't USB debug...
I tried repartitioning with the Badblock (A501.bat) but it didn't work. I get an error message, when it tried to format the partition 2 (BCT): BCT write failed. After that I tried A500 APX flasher. It didn' work too. Same error in the debug window. After that I tried manually upload the bootloader, boot image, ...etc. The error message was same. (Downoad sucessfully. BCT write failed)
I tried to use the root-3.2.1-V4 DotNetDetecter.exe but the issue was same....
Of corse I have UID and SBK.
Does anybody have any idea?
I'm not understanding it!
solved
ISUE solved!
It was a hardware problem. The flash memory chip's solder was broken. I resoldered it. After that it works again!
So is there anything else to try, or is this a hardware issue?
If it is a hardware issue, any tips and tricks for dealing with Acer? How much should I expect a repair to cost?
Seems a shame you've provided all this gr8 info onky to be told that there is nothing uou can do....def a faulty chip sorry
Someone posted week or so back that ebay have new m/b's for 50$...if your tab is still under warranty Acer may repair, last I heard cost around a hundy but that was sone tine ago....be best ring acer and see what they say. good luck!!

Oh well... it was a learning experience. Went from no knowledge on android tablets, nor linux, to figuring out enough to do all the tests and get the ID from Linux in about 5 hours or so.
On the positive side, the tablet had never been registered before for Acer's warranty, and they have approved a return and warranty repair.
Yee-haw!
Yeh for sure, if you got yourself thru all that then you just about know all there is to know about your tab... it will come in handy once u get yr tab back

Great! You can get some pretty good deals on bricked tablets these days
Be surprised how many people don't register theirs when they get them. I bricked my 701 on the second day, but was lucky I registered it before I did something foolish!!!

i try to upgrade my A500 but failed, when i tried to update it again I got this message in the upper left corner:
secure boot: image SOS checksum fail!
but if i turn it on normally, i can still i can run the machine and use it without any problem.
i thought something might went wrong with the boot.img, so i tried to push the boot.img, but got another message when i turn on the A500 as:
secure boot : image LNX checksum fail!
now i am totally lost, once i turn it on, it will show the LNX thing, if i tried to flash it, it will show the sos thing.
unfortunetely i did not back up my recovery.img.
who can help me on this? thanks in advance!
Uh oh....that sounds like some major brickage.......sc2k is your only hope now.
So I really hope u got your UID.
If so I can instruct you how to unbrick.
Please contact me via PM with your UID.
thank you so much!
but i did not record my UID, is there anyway out? or my A500 really become a brick now?
Try if this still works:
TRY FIRST WITHOUT CONNECTING THE DEVICE VIA USB
2.c Windows (alternative method)
Download this tool (download link is nearly at the end of the page): http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html
- Open the tool - Sort after VendorID - Check all devices with VendorID = 0502 and ProductID = 3325 . There is also a "Serial Number" column.
i downloaded this software and open it quite well. it shows my A500 in the device name, there are 3 A500 devices under different descriptions.
i found the serial number column and read it. is this UID for my A500?
Please PM me the value of the field. Should be a numer with 15-16 digits.
Did you have any luck in fixing the device.?

I had the exact same thing happen with my first Iconia while trying to get around the locked bootloader (in the early pre-recovery method days).
Acer was kind enough to offer to replace it for free under warranty if I shipped it to them, but best buy replaced it for me on the spot.
I had the same prob
just download an update.zip put in ur sdcard and flash it by pressin volum down when u restart.

"Image SOS" is a bricked recovery, so no update.zip can be flashed. You must be thinking of "Image LNX" which is just a soft brick and can be recovered with update.zip
One or the other at a given time is ok. Both is bad.

Again, one of the op's problems is an image SOS checksum fail, which is a bad recovery image. No update.zip can be flashed without recovery.
I'm curious to see if recovery from bad SOS AND bad LNX is possible, since I couldn't get into adb, recovery, or the OS when both went bad on me. Any updates from the op?

only hope i see is that you may find a working nvflash version.
but i remember that s2ck said if you have your usb id you are able to recovery such failures
After verifying my cpuid from 2 method, I went to vache's sbk generator and got a result.
But then the sbk verification returned with an error. I tried just the 15 cpuid digits, then with a 0 in front, and with 0x0 in front and it all generated the same SBK number. And I'm pretty sure the cpuid I got is correct because there's no way I could have downgraded from 3.2 to 3.0.1 with a wrong cpuid.
Any help here?
By the way, after doing the nvflash --bootloader.img --sbk x x x x --sync thing, it returned with an error and then my tablet gets disconnected and I need to hold power to turn off then turn it on and then have it enter apx mode again. Is this normal?

But the error says usb write failed not usb connection failed,

Alright, I have been trying to get my A500 out of APX mode for a couple weeks now and have run out of ideas. I am hoping someone here will be able to offer a suggestion I haven't tried. I have read every thread I could find on the subject and it isn't my first time stuck in APX mode and have used the EUU once and Timothy's Root-3.2.1 tool to recover previously. This time something is different though, I have tried 2 different factory EUUs, AfterOTA, APX Flash Tool, Timothy's Root-3.2.1 EUU, nvbat tools, BadSector and possibly more that I am missing, all hangup except the EUUs which error out when the tablet switches to download mode.
I would be greatly appreciative of any ideas anyone may have to save this thing, it is out of warranty and seems to just be an expensive coaster at this point.

heck, you can almost get your money back by "parting" it out. Dincdoesme is looking for a front display assembly
Ok, as I sent you the link in PM, for the rest of you folks, here's some things to try.
Note This. I am NOT a brickmaster. I'm just lucky getting things running again for a lot of people. So if these methods don't work, well, don't shoot the cook! I've never been stuck in APX mode, but I've cooked some bootloader's before.
There are a few things that causes this.
1. Your PC is playing tricks. You should disable anti-virus and such. And sometimes, using a different PC can make a difference.
2. Your USB cable. They are not all created equal, as a pin layout may be different. I use my HTC Desire's USB cable and never had an issue. My camera's cables act like they will work, but always produce errors.
3. You have corrupted or damaged memory blocks where the bootloader resides. In this case, the MB will more than likely need replaced.
So with that said, I will give you a link. Now, this zip has one of the very early NVFlash bootloader apps. I couldn't find my original pure NVFlash setup, but I've used this one often in the past. It may be more tolerant.
http://d-h.st/32X
Unzip the contents to a folder.
Have your SBK number ready. You should already have this from your UID number.
Power off your tab. Then manually put it in APX mode, by pressing and holding the pinhole rest, then press and hold PWR. After 4 seconds, release PWR, then 1 second later release pinhole. Your display should be black with a white PWR button. If not try it again or reverse the switches (been a long time)
Start the NVFlash application. DO NOT DOWNLOAD ANY BUNDLES. Plug your tab in when prompted. Always select Auto.
Ignore any windows messages. If it looks like it stops stating no APX devices, just continue.
There are 2 bootloaders and a CWM package. 1 bootloader is for the 500, the other for the 501. They are identicle except for the logo. Just choose one.
Now, note that this is a version 3 unlocked bootloader. It's ok.
At the end, you may or may not get some red ebt message. Ignore it. Just reboot it into CWM.
Hoping this works for you guys.
In the meantime, I'll still look for my original NVFlash which will rule out windows apps and conflicts.

For you guys stuck in apx - please provide a screenshot of your error messages!!
there are way too many things it COULD be and is difficult to help without physically having the tab in hand!!!! Pictures!!! post some pictures
Running nvFlash,
Go in and edit the .bat file and delete all lines beginning with 'cls' close and save, then run it...and post the error here - not saying you can be fixed but at least all error codes will be in one place.
Depending which error you have will determine whether yr tab needs to be sent to acer for repair...or something far more simple like uninstalling and reinstalling BOTH sets of drivers....
IF apxFlashv4 or timmydeansv4 or MD's suggestion above does not fix you, then yr motherboard is toasted and will need replacement

@sebone02 -
yr a bit different as u rec'd yr tab stuck in apx, so we dont know what rom was on there b4 this happened....But the bootloader tools definitely wont work from HC3.2 -
first thing to do is make sure you have both sets of drivers installed
the acer ones and the android sdk ones. Then connect to your pc
is the apx device showing and/0r the acer boot/recovery drivers
Try to perform a hard reset to format the cache and userdata
1) Turn off your tablet,
2) Rotation lock to your left;
3) Press Vol+ (which is to a rotation lock) and power on simultaneosly
4) As soon as the tablet vibrates you can release the power on button and you should start to switch rotation lock left and right till you see
Erasing Userdata...
Erasing Cache...
Vol+ is still pressed;
5) The tablet starts to format
6) Your tablet will be as clean as it can be.
Then run timmydeansv4.
Thank you to those trying to help.

Yeah, my bag of tricks is empty at the moment. I see in the posts above you, where jazzyjames and a couple others are in the same boat. Everything points to an unrecoverable error in the boot loader partition.
Maybe those guys will stumble onto something, or skirlaz_cz will have some input.
On the 700/701/510 we had the issue right at the start when the first cwm's were couurupting the data partitions when wipes or restores were done. Samsung s3 had the same bug that bricked the partitions. The lead dev in the 700 forum got his own stuck in apx mode for some unknown reason. End result are main board changes for all of them including mine.
On the 70x, they found several hidden partitions, so am hoping that mess is sorted out now.

thanks for posting the pix - i see each tool reports different errors - not sure why this would be, all i can tell you is i have had a couple of nvflash errors along with the EUU update failed screen and the display showing "reboot the device", (all at the same time) which never went away no matter how many times i rebooted....somehow though thru multiple tries over many days i got a working tab again...
I'm sure that in the end the apxflash tool finally recognised my tab in apx mode,
once that happened i manually flashed a bootloader.bin and recovery.img -
you can try this if you have tdv4, use the .img files in there to manually flash via apxflash tool
also, if u have access to linux - running nvflash command from it has helped others...
finally lcd047 ran nvflash directly from tdv4 (his was a partition error):
lcd407; said:
* I downloaded timmyDean's root-3.2.1-V4.7z
* I booted the tablet (in APX mode) and I connected the USB cable to it
* in the directory root-3.2.1/Image I run the command
Code:nvflash --bct flash.bct --setbct --odmdata 0x100c0105 --configfile flash.cfg --create --bl bootloader.bin --sbk 0xXXXXXXXX 0xXXXXXXXX 0xXXXXXXXX 0xXXXXXXXX --go
* without rebooting, I flashed the v7 bootloader and recovery as per the bootloader thread; since the partition table was restored at the previous step, the operation now succeeded;
* I rebooted the tablet in recovery, and proceeded to wipe the data and flash a ROM the usual way.
As I already noted, I lost all the data from the internal sdcard. I'm not sure if that was the result of the re-creation of partitions, or I inadvertently did that while messing with nvflash, the bottom line is all files are gone. In turn, restoring the CWM backup didn't do much good, because most apps will fail in interesting ways without the sdcard data, so I'll probably just start from scratch and reinstall the apps from a Titanium backup. But I have a working tablet again.

another good thread to take a look at, although i got lost after page1!!!!
No access to ROM or Recovery its the only fix i have seen that addresses the problem and provides a solution - its a shame i cannot understand it, lol
from what i've seen on the boards the ebt issue is damn near unrecoverable,
partition errors seem a little easier??
bct errors can sometimes be recovered from using the dump my bct option in apxflash 0.4 IF you can get the tool to recognise yr tab...
If tdv4 fails then its a bit of a lottery in finding something else that works
ensuring that an apx device is recognised by yr pc is fundamental in getting any of the automated tools to work....
I do wish you all the best in finding a solution, and please keep us all posted on how u ALL get on with this....

then decanted or android supine red triangle and no progress bar and reboot after 5 minutes on the screen acer ...
The tab was under ICS UPDATED OTA ... I do not know any more I never had access to this tablet ...
apx mode when the tablet is recognized as acer picasso USB boot-recovery-driver
I of valid command line:
nvflash - bct flash.bct - setbct - configfile flash.cfg - create - odmdata 0xb00d8011 - bl bootloader.bin - go
the tab is the deco pc and nothing happens ...
This is tough.
then this app (Universal Android AIO Flasher Tool$) looks at the top, it is clear that communicates fastboot mode with the tablet, it offers the tab flash through fastboot mode, but (and yes always a but) the tab does not looks like ....
she displays two red lines
fastboot: command not in the carrier lock mode ....
See the photo.
In fast boot mode, open calls in c: sdk / platform tools ....
fastboot oem unlock I hit okay result ...
I type fastboot update update.zip behind I get error: update package has no android info.txt and android product.txt
Well, I summarized a bit
If I want to use flash apx I have no cpuid ...
If I want to use A500Manager the tablet is not detected ...
If I want to use Fastboot mode ca communicates yesterday, orders launch code but multiple errors on the shelf ... but nothing concrete results ...
If I want to use nvflash commands to launch but device not found ...
If I want to use topo Android_AIO_Flasher same cate with the fastboot command ....
I think my hope lies between fastboot and apx apx but I would need it .... ****ing cpuid
I raked French and foreign internet board but without success, the tablet does not rise and so I can not make it the only thing feasible is apx mode ...
I therefore appeal to your precious skills ....
Thank you for your help ...
Sincerely,
Laboulisti.

Hello, I've got a problem with my motorola defy, after installing any rom it automatically switches to bootloader mode, after pressing vol- power it displays motorola logo and then comes bootloader with an error: err:a5,69,35,00
I'v already tried a huge number of abfs including roms from defy+
Thanks in advance for your help.

Unfortunately, this is not working
Dfp231 cannot give the boot loader error, unless you have eMMC failure

I mean there is a hardware problem if you cannot revive your phone using dfp 231
Log shows a bad error (generic flash command failure). I don't think it can be fixed without motherboard replacement
