A500 Volume Button and Recovery - Acer Iconia A500

OK so first my volume button is broken, i tore the tablet apart and tried to press them with a toothpick and nothing, I can live with that except while resetting my tablet I accidentally wiped my rom. So now im screwed and cant get into my recovery.
So:
Is there a way to get into my recovery or maybe reset my tablet somehow?
Is there anyone selling a volume button assembly?
Is it possible to bypass the volume button assembly, and somehow send a electrical pulse and trick it into recovery?
Thanks for the replies in advance

Hey dude, that's sucky luck...pretty difficult to wipe the OS with a reset, r u sure?
If u had skrilax_cz boot loader on there, then hook up to yr PC and use fastboot to get into recovery and then flash a rom.
If u don't have the patched bootloader, you'll have to flash it on there using the apxflash tool. Links and guides in my sig...oh, I hope u got yr cpuid stashed somewhere???

dude, please make sure you get that cpuid as soon as you get recovery - if you brick it from here there gonna be no hope for it -
did you check out the thread regarding the vol button fix??

hmmmm, yeh, no problem with that, as long as the fastboot driver is installed on yr pc, which we wont know for sure until you boot....and I'm not sure if fastboot will boot a tab which is powered off?? guess will find out soon!!
Plan B would be to put it in apx mode and then connect to PC, actually thats probably a better way anyway..keep us posted I be around for wee while!

[Q] acer a500 hangs on apx mode

Alright guys so I'm about to sacrifice root for this and just get the ota update and root again.....I've tried reinstalling drivers for Acer and apx mode didn't work tried different downloads for tools didn't work tried a whole new PC all together didn't work.. I've also tried entering apx mode manually and automatically I'm running flex reapers ics rom and whenever the tablet is supposed to go into download mode it hangs and never goes I've tried waiting even after an hour it just a black screen ive tried doing a wipe and reinstalling rom twice any thoughts.....i have no idea thanks
Im trying to get ics bootloader by the way ;-)
The black screen IS APX mode... You shouldn't get anything until you actually start to flash the bootloader using nvflash or the tool created to flash the bootloader - sorry, its about 3am here, I'm at work and can't remember who created the flash tool.....

Hi,
I was fighting the same battle just a other day and got over it with the manual flashing guide by Civato & Co. Found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1622425 (almost at the end of the forst post)
I also used blackthund3r's A500 manager to get to the APX mode and then finalized with the manual way.. So a combo worked for me..

lol then dude go to the development section and click the DUAL-BOOTLOADER thread and get the v4+ ics patched bootloader,
follow civvy's guide in the above post to flash your shiny new unlocked ics bootloader
the new apx flash tool the above user described to you sound like your right path,,, read up on the method and versions before trying anything and always nandroid and keep your cpuid saved and backup digitally and physically (sticky note )
did this 3days ago with civvy's guide and all is great in land of android.

First of all, install all the acer drivers on the PC.
Install the Acer Drivers from Acer Support and the USB drivers from the Android SDK here
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Then get afterota
and export / save (whatever it says) your cpuid and system info and stuff....there should be a button that lets you save that
next, download a rom of your choice and place it on the EXTERNAL SD card...don't put it in internal storage
then use babsector and follow instructions below
Heres the link to babsector.rar
How to use babsector -
Turn your tab off and put it in apx mode manually. Press and hold reset button, hold power for 3 secs after the light comes on and release it, after another second release the reset button. Your screen is black and the power light is on.
Download and extract the .rar to a folder on your PC
Connect your tab to your PC
Navigate to the babsector folder and click on 501 A.bat
Reboot into recovery
Go to Mounts and Storage and Format System twice and Power Off
Go back into apx mode and run 501 B.bat
Reboot into recovery and do the wipes and flash your rom
Reboot!!!

If anyone else is stuck on partitioning error or something using nvflash or blackthund3r, use this method

Nexus 7 stuck on fastboot screen/bootloop...bricked?

Hi
Tried to flash a new kernel and all seemed ok (flashed phones and nexus 7 few times now) when I came out of flashing I hit a bootloop, I though nothing of it and tried to restart....same issue, so next I tried to go into cw recovery, no joy, it will not show again.
I can power/vol keys to android fastboot screen with start power restart boot and so on but if I choose recovery nothing happens, I am stuck with either a bootloop or stuck on android fastboot screen and not able to move from either.
I have tried the toolkit and most other things but the problem is it cannot see my nexus 7, even after installing drivers and so on the toolkit (top right) does not list my nexus as found, because of this I cannot reflash any stock firmware/recover/reflash cwr.
Not sure how I can get around this if my pc cannot see the nexus 7.
Thanks for any help

Hi
I cannot flash anything. On the fastboot screen I can scroll up and down powr off/start/recovery....if I choose any (apart from power off) nothing happens.
When I hook it up to my pc it cannot see it, nexus 7 toolkit also cannot see it, it does not list it as found so I cannot flash anything on to it, if I try it just says waiting for device, tried other things and same thing either waiting for device or asks if fastboot installed.

You are already at the bootloader screen. Use your computer to fastboot flash a new kernel. Being able to get into recovery has nothing to do with it. You screwed it up flashing a kernel. Its likely thats all you need to fix it. Flash a new one with fastboot.

How did you get it to work? I have problem getting my device to be recognized. Stuck on boot loop too..
Hey man, how did you get your computer to recognize your device? Would be great to finally fix mine as this is the same exact problem -- computer doesn't recognize it even though in fastboot.

I don't understand exactly what you are trying to do, sorry: you said the pc does not see the nexus, "even thought in fastboot".. If you say even thought, it seems to me that you are able to access Android itself or maybe recovery? In that case I can't see the issue.. Sorry my fault, non english mother tongue
But, if have the device soft bricked and you are able to enter ONLY the bootloader (that is what we call often fastboot), then you should start to remove the not working fastboot drivers installed into your PC: launch the nexus in fastboot mode, go to Device Manager into your PC and search for a driver with an yellow exclamation point. This issue is very common so I hope that you have it, too.. So, uninstall that driver, then unlink the nexus from your PC; after a few seconds attach it to another USB port and see if Windows install a driver (it should). If this new driver doesn't work, too, or if Windows does no install any, try this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426502
Hope it helps, let us know, see you!
EDIT: also, if you still have no luck, you should find a Linux or Mac PC/laptop and download the adb/fastboot binary files for that OS; this will definitively solve your driver issue ( @#ò#@!"@# Winzozz )

Hi sorry for not being clear. Basically I am only allowed to access the bootloader and my device is soft-bricked. I'm pretty sure I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers about a year ago when I originally did it, but I'll try again and let you know. Thanks!

[Q] I am bricked! please help!

I flash a wrong kernel (A Nexus 7 kernel), and my nexus4 become brick. No matter what I did, it still no response. I can't boot to fastboot, even i can't turn it on. Please help....
connect to PC, only show a QHSUSB_DLOAD in Device Manager. But still can't turn it on. Please help, anything i can do to fix it??
Read through the ENTIRE other thread you posted in, all the info is there.
No idea how you accidently flash wrong a kernel for the wrong device.
Get into bootloader mode. (can you? Google on how to do it manually)
Or
Plug the phone in via usb if you had adb used on it and type adb reboot bootloader (hence if use toolkit you won't have this set up.)

I can't connect PC with adb. I connect PC can't show the charge icon in my phone. And PC can only identify the device as QHSUSB_DLOAD.

I really dislike people recommending to send the phone back (RMA) to Google for a user's own (I'll be polite here) lack of awareness and understanding of what they are doing. This person should continue to look for solutions to get it working and if not.. well, to bad. Lesson learnt. Buy another Nexus 4.
Besides that fastboot should still be accessible. If OP can eventually get into fastboot then all will be well.
Go read read FAQ thread,will show yo proper way to get back to bootloader mood don't be lazy that won't help,agree getting to bootloader mode then fastboot proper n4 kernel.try it on other pc I'd you cannot in this pc,make sure you install the driver.

Is the first step "1) Once in Fastboot mode, through Nexus 4 Toolkit I flashed the Clock Work Recovery. " ?
Now I connect my phone to PC, then Power + Vol- for ~10sec, my phone will had red led for few second and then off again.

I like how all the people who manage to do something so idiotic to these phones band together and stick up for each other. There is no possible way to flash the wrong nexus kernel. any who, the solution has been posted plenty of times. Enter recovery then fast food.

To get into Fastboot:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So for all the people with Bricked devices all hope is not lost. Follow this procedure to get into Fastboot.
1) Press the Power button for more then 5 seconds to do a Hard Reset. This is where you screen is completely turned off.
2) Now take your LG manufactured USB connect it to the PC. Do not connect it to the phone just yet.
3) Holding the Vol Down and Power together and NOW connect your other end of the USB connector to the phone and then your phone should give you a slight vibration and you should see the Fastboot screen (Android lying on the back)
NOTE: Make sure as soon as you see then fastboot mode Let go of the Vol and Power Button right away!

---> when i connect the usb, the phone immediately Red LED on and no vibration. LED on few second, my phone off again and remind no response
Is that mean no hope
yatyuk, use this thread for further inquiry LINK. I don't want to go back and forth in between different threads with the same issues.
Try this,
Did you ever get a Battery sign when you had it connected to the PC or AC for power?
Try this, I don't know if its gonna work or not but plug your phone in the wall receptacle for AC Charge and leave it for a while. On AC, the phone most likely, if completely dead, will stay idle but most likely jump back to Battery sign showing its charging or not.
When that happens, leave like that for a hour or two.
Let me know what happens. Good luck.

hi, i did it trying to change a rom via twrp, when finished flashing gone black screen!!
Connect phone to computer
Type
adb devices
See anything?
If not try fastboot devices
If you see anything, try typing
adb reboot recovery
If you can get here, you can try flashing the stock room over your current ROM. Make sure to wipe cache

You are in Diagnostics mode, it's pretty useless, you need to enter in EDL Mode and try a flash with MiFlashTool
Use "fastboot oem edl"
I don't know if your phone can receive fastboot commands in Diagnostics, just try...
Can you please elaborate what have you done prior to the device brick? An informative answer requires an informative question.

What about keeping power and volume +/- pressed together for at least 10 seconds?
Too, connect the charger, maybe the battery is drained.
At least try these simple things before moving to complicated ones.

Another thing to try is this, connect your phone with your computer and run
adb reboot edl
You will not see anything in your phone, just black screen.
Open miflash tool and hit refresh. See if it recognizes the phone.

At least mi flash is recognizing the phone.
You can try with a different firmware, try with android 7 firmware.
P.s. now that I see better your phone is recognized as Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E, it should be 9008
You should try to find the correct Qualcomm drivers...
I'm sorry you have to go through this.
