Swipe 3D Life plus tab -- hard reset
Hi Everyone,
I know how troublesome it is to unlock a Swipe 3D life plus tablet. Truly speaking . there is no way to unlock it other than hard resetting it. Even if your tablet is under warranty, the company through their service centers charge you around 250 bucks which is quite annoying.
After a lot of attempts, i figured out the way to hard reset it. It is exactly the same as you would hard reset a Google Nexus 7 tab.
So here is the procedure (follow carefully)
1) Switch off your tablet
2) Your tablet has only three buttons, one for power and a combined button for vol - and vol +.
3) Press and hold Power until the device powers on, then immediately press and hold Volume Down(while still pressing Power).
4) Within a few seconds, it would say: Encryption unsuccessful and you can find a menu on screen saying "Reset Tab".
5) Just select that "Reset Tab" option. it would show android logo (do nothing , just wait a couple of seconds)It would automatically shutdown and boot up again.
6) This time it will take a little longer to load.
7) Finally It will prompt you to the home screen.
Hope this helps !!!

[Q] Tablet Christmas Presant Help

hey guys i bought this tablet for my nephew (6yr old hence ca cheap thing ) for christmas and when i got it i put some game on it rdy for him
i cant give a link cause i'm a new user tho
but when i have tried to turn in on today it wont go past the 3rd loading screen before you get to the desktop i tried to reset it using the power and volume up button but it sticks on the same screen after it have rebooted
is there anything i can do apart from send it bk
any help would be greatly appreciated
thx Anthony

There should be some 2-button combination that will bring you to a recovery screen that will allow you to do a hard reset (factory reset). Usually, it is the Power button + another button.
It could be
Power + Vol Up
Power + Vol Down
Power + Home
One of these combinations will bring you to a screen with an Android with a red X. Depending on the Power + combination, press the second button again. For example, if Power + Home (in the case of my cheap China-made tablet), I see the Android with red X, I will need to press the Home button again to get to the screen from which I can select to do a factory reset.
Just be patient - sometimes the buttons are a bit sticky and the combinations may not seem to work, but perseverance will pay off.

[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

Lexibook Tablet "Barbie" recovery

Thought I would share my experience with this PITA tablet.
Just spent a few days scratching my head trying to factory reset a Lexibook Barbie MFC190BBEN model Android tablet.
It belongs to a 7 year old girl who put a password lock on it for some reason then forgot her password (much to her Mum's annoyance).
The Lexibook support site suggests going into settings and selecting factory reset.
Obviously this cannot be done as the tablet is locked so their next suggestion is to send it back for 'out of warranty' repair!
Some serious googling got me as far as recovery mode (sort of) which involves the reset button being pressed with a paperclip whilst pressing the power button and volume up at the same time whilst connected to a pc via usb.
This gets you a blank tablet screen, adb access but no fastboot and the adb is very limited and stops responding to simple commands.
It uses a Rockchip processor but most of the drivers do not give a stable connection.
After lots of trying to get stable connections so I can push a custom recovery (or get anything at all to talk to the damn tablet) I found that if you disonnect the usb cable and reset the tablet with the reset button you need to hold BOTH volume buttons then press the power button for a couple of seconds..keep holding the volume buttons and you should get the Android robot with a red exclamation mark.
From here I reconnected to the pc and adb could now see a device in recovery mode but with a serial of 0123456789ABCDEF
Still no joy with any adb commands....
Just a few reboots to blank screen again with no adb.
So I reset again and held the two volume buttons to get back to the Android with red exclamation mark again.
Some more googling found a different type of Rockchip based tablet that suggested NOW pressing the power button and volume up quickly..........
Well it turns out this tablet DOES have its own recovery!!!
No amount of googling told me this!!
So after days of messing about with drivers and button presses it turns out it is a simple task to reset from recovery.
You use the volume keys to choose from the minimal options in the recovery menu and use power to select.
Due to the amount of googling I did with no answers that worked (or even came close to an answer) I thought I would share this in the hope it would save someone else from pulling their hair out and keep their child happy!
[emoji1]

you're legend, mate ... I've been trying to put google services and youtube on it for ages. Now it seems it can be done!

No mater how i press the buttons the android robot never appears just the normal start screen please describe the key pressing combination again

Press the reset button with a paperclip whilst you hold BOTH volume buttons then press the power button for a couple of seconds.
Keep holding the volume buttons and you should get the Android robot with a red exclamation mark.
NOW press the power button and volume up quickly..
This should get you into 'recovery'

Thank you. I ll give it a go. Do you know who makes the barbie tablet? I would like to get inttouch with them if it doesn't work.

The seller is no good. Only problems with him. I am in dispute with him becouse the screen is cut of almost 1cm at the botom.Ifvyou have any other seguestion i am all ears.

I wrote this in another thread, but you can try this method.
1) Hold power button to turn it off (about 5-10 seconds).
2) Let go and shortly afterward (1-2 seconds) hit the power button again. This should keep the unit off and prevent it from automatically restarting.
3) You can then hit the power button again to turn it on, and it should go into recovery

I have the same unit (at least looks equal). Can you get in recovery? I'm still trying.

Can you post a picture of the front of your unit?
If your unit is anything like mine, the rst (reset) button does nothing to get you into recovery. The post by vnamee (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67552738&postcount=6) works for me. My unit does not have a recessed power button, it's just the volume knob.
Also, ignore step 3.

First it is wery important,to turn on the lights that you see what is hapenning on the unit. Then press and hold the reset button until the unit shuts off and the lights start blinking. Now the hard part. When the lights blink relise the reset button and when the lights go of pres the reset button.the screen will shut off then press the reset button once more and the unit wil go in to recovery.

After many attempts its works thanks.

To save thread space: (I came across this when I wanted to get into recovery mode but it didn't have my info)
I have a Joying RK3188 2-DIN 1024*600 unit. It has a power switch on the side (push the volume dial) and a res button recessed in a paperclip hole.
You don't actually need to use the RES although perhaps that's another way to do it.
To get into recovery mode hold down power. After ten seconds you'll see backlit keys blink three times quickly. Continue to hold the power key for three more seconds (I counted 1 Mississippi. etc because it's a little tricky there) Then release power and press it again normally a single time. Don't hold it this time.
Wait for the recovery mode to come up. If you see the joying or car icon you've booted too far and you need to retry. The three seconds after the blink seemed to be the key to it.
Before your flash I would practice rebooting and getting into recovery a few times so you know you've got it down in case something goes wrong.

this worked for me as well on my unit for chevy cruze. I just had to put my key on accessory. then 10 secs , 3 more seconds then push power one time.

I have a HotAudio MTCD unit and this has worked for me everytime.
Turn on your lights so that the hard key lights are on. Hold the power button for approx 10 sec until you see all of the buttons flash 3 times. Keep holding the power button for approx 3 more seconds, then release and immediately just press and release it again once. It will then boot right into recovery.

I have no idea why they made them so complicated to get into recovery mode with the 5.1.1 versions. All the old 4.4 versions it was simple as reset+power, let go of reset and hold power button. These new ones are much more tricky and you have to get the timing just right to get it into recovery. Usually takes many attempts for me to finally get it into recovery mode because I do it so rarely.

How to enter recovery?
