[Q] Xoom 2 p/w locked.... Tear down?

Ok my xoom 2 has been password locked thanks to my 10 year old brother who doesn't know what the password is.... (oh yay) unfortunately usb debugging wasn't enabled so running any commands to hard reset my xoom is a no go.
I have searched and searched for the last few days with no success in finding a solution so i'm going to have to go beneath the hood and have a play around.
I already know how to tear down the xoom as I've already tried doing a battery pull.
Does anyone at all know anything about the internals that I could pull to wipe the device or return it to stock?
I really don't like the idea that I have spent a few hundred dollars on a pretty looking frisbee.... :-/

do a hard reset using power and volume + lose all your data though

I have tried so many times to enter recovery and I can't, I can only get into debugging mode using volume - and power.

Alright I'll give it a few more goes I have heard it can be a bit tedious to get into by making the right timing to press the buttons.

Screen dead using as Google tv

Hello I have tf101 which dropped and the screen went out tried opening and realigned the cable but no luck so I bought a mini HDMI an it works on my TV but the sound doesn't work thanks to my custom rom that isn't updated.... so is there a way to upgrade without seeing screen because recovery doesn't do video out.

What recovery are you using? Some recoveries have apps in which you cab reboot and auto flash. Of course the odd part will be how long you should wait until you try to reboot.

You may be able to use Rom Manager (NOT TO FLASH THE RECOVERY) to auto reboot and flash the zip. I know for me twrp recovery let me auto flash a zip with goomanager as well.

Team EOS 4.4.3 on Xoom

Since flashing to 4.4.3 I've lost the advanced power menu and simply reboot into recovery. Did I miss something?

Bump. As a temp fix, I installed GooManager since it has an option to trigger a reboot to recovery.
