[Q] HKC recovery mode - General Questions and Answers

The title pretty much says it all, but I bought a HKC P776A tablet, and to say the most support is non existent for this product/brand, I've rooted it myself which was hard to figure out specially the drivers...but what I can't figure out is how to put this device into recovery mode on boot? And if it can I have no idea how you could even navigate it seeing as it only has home and power buttons as physical...Any ideas?

If you install the appropriate CWM Recovery, you can swipe up and down on the screen to change the selection and then swipe left to select or right to go back.

---unti i finally found the few pists here abput it at xda.. Thank god other people do have this tablet (that i thought was a gooddeal....) and are having the same problems as mme so i don't feel QUITE as stupid anyway...
I have the 8g p776a

Can someone please steer me in the right direction here. What steps (if this has been made possible yet) do i need to take here? Do ineed to root?
Thanks for any help!

holding the the home button plug in the charger and wait for a android screen to come up it will show a android dude laying on his back with his chest open and a triangle warning symbol when you see that release the home button and press the home and power buttons at the same time and wait like 1 second then release the power button while still holding the home button and wait for the recovery mode to show then release the home button and voila!! you are in. When you are there navigate using the home button and press the power button to select. Hope this helps.

flashed updated kernel, now stuck at boot

Hey guys this is my first post.
I'm running Codename 3.6.0 and just flashed AirKernel #224 (previously had #211) and ever since I've been stuck at boot. The Google logo appears, then the soft touch keys light up, then the Google logo dissappears and the keys remain lit with a black screen. The Nexus "X" doesn't show up. My power button is broken and I have been using a combination of volume rocker wake and button remapper to wake/sleep my phone. The power button has been shorted, the common failure on a Nexus S, so fastboot doesn't work, and I have no way of getting into recovery. When I run "adb devices" my phone doesn't show up.
There must be a way to fix this, any suggestions?
no one?

my power button is broken too(since last august 2011, lol), but it acts like its pressed sometimes. i pull out the battery then put it in when plugged in via usb. i press volume down as i put in the battery and it boots right into the bootloader. then i flick the back of the phone near the power button and it lets me select recovery with the volume rocker. then i flick the back of the phone again to chose recovery.

[Q] Help with cheap tablet

Hello everyone. Let me start out by saying that I searched here and everywhere for a solution to this problem and I am not sure if this is the right place to post. I bought two Supersonic SC-91MID tablets for my kids for Christmas. 3 days after they opened them up one of them stays at the android start screen where android is in silver letters and it will not go past that. The only buttons that they have are a home button, a reset button, and a power button. They have android 4.0 ICS on them. I have tried to get to recovery mode many different ways such as holding the home button or reset button and pressing power but noting works. My thought is that if I can get to recovery mode I can reinstall the stock ROM from the other tablet that i have. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure if this will work or not but have you tried the power and both volume buttons?

I wish that I could try that but the volume buttons are not hard buttons they are soft buttons so basically they are just places on the screen that are designated as buttons. But yes I tried them anyway no luck. I got the egg to RMA them at there cost so that is good. I am going to send them out Monday. I just hope that they don't act up again. Thank you for your help though.
Bump. Same issue here

DOPO T-708 stuck in boot loop!

I have a DOPO T708 7" tablet and it used rootchecker when I got it. Rootcheccker said it was rooted. So I installed the usual (busybox etc...) The tablet started randomly rebooting a lot, and not it's stuck in a bootloop. I don't care about data or anything, I just want it working again. HELP!!!
Try this...
Found this thread while looking for a way to root the T708 I bought today. Don't know if this is still an issue for you, but if so, maybe I can help. The one I bought today would load to the Android screen, then hang there. The person couldn't figure it out, but after much searching, I did...
Try this... Power down the device fully. Press and hold MENU hard key, and power on the device. Hold both the MENU key and the POWER button until the device boots and loads into a screen with an Android picture. From here press and hold the volume down key and the deveice should load up the standard Android recovery menu with a factory restore option. Should get you back on your feet...
NOTE: I BELIEVE it's the volume down key at the part I mentioned. If that doesn't work, try it with the volume up key. This is my first experience with these devices, so bear with me...
Hope this helps you, or some other poor soul that's found themselves in need...
Still stayed in the boot loop but thanks anyway. Glad someone's is working haha
I had to send my dopo tablet to the company in ontario california.they will fix it for free even if you are rooted.But you have to have your reciept.And within one year of purchase.

Got it to work!
Let it completely die. Then plug it in via mini usb. Hold menu, then power. Android logo appears, let go of the buttons. Android on back appears, press volume up. Menu appears. Factory reset, working, yay!

[Q] Power Button Issue

Recently, I've been having trouble with my phones power button, as in it doesn't work. I can click it all I want and it won't do anything. However, if I ever take the battery out or if the battery dies and I put the phone on the charger it automatically boots up as if I had hit the power button. This really isn't a big deal except I would like to change the rom on it and am not sure how to do so anymore without a functioning power button. You guys have any advice on what the problem might be or how to change the rom without a functional power button?

Download an app called flashify from the market, open the app, select zip file, pick to flash either with TWRP or CWM (depended what you have installed as recovery), then hit yes to reboot.
You could install xposed module and reassign the power button to another physical hardware button and then replace that button with something like LMT launcher. Sounds convoluted but my power button stopped working and now my home button is my power button and I have LMT taking care of the home functionality. But that won't work in recovery sorry.

I had to rip my power button off from the motherboard. If I ever find a button worthy of soldering on I'll send you a link to it. Although I will probably wait until I get a new phone.
I tried using Flashify to flash a 4.4 ROM. Unfortunately, now the phone won't boot. It will get to the black screen that says Samsung SIII, stay there for a little bit and then shut off at which point it tries to turn on again since the power button must be stuck. Any ideas as to how I could fix it from my computer?

Unfortunately, not to my current knowledge. Power button fix's can be troublesome if you don't know how to put it on the motherboard properly.
Personally, I've repaired hundreds of power buttons on an S3.
Just wanted to give you guys an update. I was able to get my phone into boot mode and realized I could swipe right to make selections. I installed a couple old roms i had on the memory card but it would never get past the turn on animation. I finally just downloaded the adb sdk and used it to download a rom onto my phone using adb sideload through the terminal on my mac. I think that's what I did, basically just followed instructions on a screen. Anyways, updated to 4.4 so I'm happy.

[Q] Help! Boot Loop with HKC A072D

So I've been googling for quite some while on this tablet, and haven't got any help.
Brand HKC Model A072D
No vol buttons, there is a reset button tho, I have tried to get into recovery with it but, have gotten nowhere. There is no firmware on HKC official site and i can't even get it to read on my pc, so that means no adb . Does anyone know how to flash or reset this? Thanks...
i have the same model like you. and its says Update Android on 8 from 51...and then freeze..somebody help me please!

Nope, it won't work, cause i used the wrong rom to flash it, and its like hard bricked, nothing on the screen whatsoever.
The only is, if you hold PWR and connect it to the pc, you hear a "attached device" noise but the installation of the drivers fail. Need help with this tab
