I just traded my X1 for an x7510, but find many of the settings not reacting at all. It's apparently running a version of 6.5
USB to PC does nothing when clicked, along with various other settings such as Device Information and Format Microdrive.
I can't connect to my PC, so I can't even begin to sync or think about updating the ROM to something that might work again.
Does anyone have any useful tips how I could get this thing working again?
Go into bootloader, its camera button and reset. And it will work. Thats the whole points of a hard-spl...Make sure you have the correct drivers in windows.
...
Well, that's such an obvious solution I rightfully feel like a n00b now.
Thanks.
Just noticed that the Chinese site Rerede.com has finally managed to build support for the WiFi card in the Surface Pro in a build of Android-IA.
This build seems to support everything, apart from bluetooth:

Thanks for this, it's really working, although far from perfect. Fastest touch response on android =))
Here's the direct link to download: http://rerede.com/surface.android-ia.rerede.com.vPRC2.zip
Could you get the front Cam working?
Turns out that front cam doesn't run by default. I fixed it along with some other things like youtube playback, play store etc. It's almost perfect now
Surface 2 Pro
Has someone tested these instructions on a Surface 2 Pro ? Working ?
Unfortunatly, I have a Surface 1 Pro and encounter the following error:
FATAL: ASERTION FAILED bootable/iago/plugins/gummiboot.c:gummiboot_execute:154 'efibootmgr' encountered an error (status 100)
Gummiboot the EFI bootmgr does not install. Maybe it would be possible to install it manually.
Secure Boot is disabled, and I also tried different USB sticks and the original unmodifed Android-IA image. No success.
Current progress: managed to boot into Android-IA using Refined, which itselfs loads Gummiboot.
However the overall stability of Android-IA on the Surface Pro is not good:
- Wifi most of the time does not work. Turning it on/off does not help. Neither does it help to disable power saving features. Maybe we could try a different driver
- Sometimes when the device is not used for about 2 minutes and goes black, it cannot be turned on again. I have to hold the power button to force a shutdown.

You need to use a USB hub, so that you can have you USB stick and USB keyboard attached simultaneously. This installation program does not recognize the Surface keyboard, but it does recognize a standard USB keyboard.
I, however am having a different problem. I get (almost) to the end of the whole process, after it says press enter to continue with the installation and does a bunch of stuff, but then give the following error:
FATAL: ASERTION FAILED bootable/iago/plugins/gummiboot.c:gummiboot_execute:154 'efibootmgr' encountered an error (status 100)
It was mentioned earlier in this thread, but no one seemed to shed any light on the subject. In other forums some have suggested that it was just an incompatible memory stick, but I have not tried multiple memory stick by different manufactures...
Others have suggested that you need to disable AHCI and instead run in IDE mode, but with the Surface Pro 2's woefully underwhelming BIOS, I haven't yet figured out how to disable AHCI. There's some that say that simply changing some registry keys will do the trick, but I haven't gotten that to work yet, and I don't have extremely high hope for it when I do.
Does anyone here have any thoughts about this error??? Anyone run into it who has successfully gotten it working after seeing this error? If so, how?
Thanks!
please help: Fatal Asertion Failed... (status 100)
Does anyone have any light to shine on the follow error? Please?
FATAL: ASERTION FAILED bootable/iago/plugins/gummiboot.c:gummiboot_execute:154 'efibootmgr' encountered an error (status 100)
I've detailed some of the (failed) solutions I've found on other boards/threads regarding to how to get around this error on other devices, but none seem to be the trick for getting past this error on the surface. I'm really surprised that there don't seem to be more people trying to install Android on the MS Surface... or perhaps there are, but for most people things go more smoothly. Any help our there, please?
Thinking about returning the surface if I can't get android on it. I'm really interested in a powerful tablet that can dual boot windows/android.

When you get this error, it means that efibootmgr is unable to create the boot entry but all the files are in fact in boot partition. I also received this error, but since I also had Ubuntu (well, you kind of also need Ubuntu to access Android partitions easily anyway) I used the efibootmgr in Ubuntu to manually create Android entry. This way, I'm able to select advanced boot options under Windows (created desktop shortcut) and switch to Android really easily. You should leave the Windows as default so that you might never need a keyboard attached for boot menu. If you don't want to install Ubuntu just to solve this error, you *might* get away with a live Ubuntu CD, however I never tried that.

Hi ozkaya, this sounds really promising, and I've even kind of gotten it installed, but it was going crazy (constant nonstop scrolling to select a boot mode as if I were holding down the arrow key; ended up being like Russian Roulette booting), so I decided to clean the slate and try again, the only problem is, I keep getting this error again... As a side note, I'm not overtly familiar with Ubuntu though I do have OSX successfully running on the Surface Pro 2, but I'm using a thumb drive to boot into it.
A few follow up questions:
-Are you saying that you use grub to boot into Android rather than gummiboot?
-Would you be willing to described "used the efibootmgr in Ubuntu to manually create Android entry" in more detail?
-How exactly to you select advanced boot options under Windows & create desktop shortcut?
*sorry if any of these questions are super basic. Back in the early XP days I was fairly savvy with dual/triple booting, but windows 8 and the Surface Pro's lackluster BIOS options are completely baffling me.

1- No I'm not using grub, in fact I also tried to daisy chain grub booting gummiboot booting Android and it doesn't work. I'm using native EFI entry.
2- I don't have it written up somewhere, I did it as I was reading and trying. But basically, you first need to install Ubuntu with dual boot with Windows. Have a look at the /boot partition, you will see the gummiboot files and config files there. Then research command line parameters for efimootmgr program and create the entry for the gummiboot file in /boot partition.
3- Just use google for this one, you can select advanced startup options somewhere from the settings in Windows 8 fancy menu. You can also create desktop shortcut for this. Once you completed Step 2, you will see Windows, Ubuntu and Android entries there. Since, Windows will be default, when you would like to switch to Android, you just double tap the shortcut and select Android. In Android you just power off and next restart will be Windows again. No keyboards, mouse etc needed. I also got the front cam and youtube playback working. Only bluetooth doesn't work.
Surface Pro 2
Anyone got this to work with Surface Pro 2? I am thinking of getting one, and if it could run android, im definitely getting one!
(I don't really see the point of getting Surface 1 when the 2 is out now)
I have followed the instructions and it installed fine, and then booted to android however as soon as I reboot I can no longer run android (or fastboot/recovery) without reinstalling it all over again from USB.
The error I get from gummiboot is:
HandleProtocol (DiskIoProtocol): Unsupported
Failed to start boot image 'Android': Unsupported
I would really appreciate some help from anyone who has a better understanding of this since I couldn't find anyone with a similar problem.
(I am using a 128gb Surface Pro 1/Original)
Thanks
when turning trusted platform module on and off it works sometimes

I'm having the same problem over and over .. still no luck
Dear XDA-Community,
I'm writing to you after extensive google search without any proper help for this weird situation. I'm on a Galaxy S2 with a rooted android 4.1.2 afaik, and unfortunately I'm only the type of "forum expert" that can follow complex instructions but has no real clue about what exactly the software mechanisms behind are.
The phone has been encrypted for years now, password never changed and password is the same as on my tablet. The phone occasionally reboots because the second phone in my pocket pushes against the power button of the S2. Has been annoying but never a problem.
Now today, the same happens. Phone reboots and asks for decryption password as usual. I type it in, short delay, "Please type again". I carefully retype and get the same result. I check keyboard layout or anything and type again while checking every character carefully -> same result. Because at this point I doubt my own intelligence, I check if the same password works on my tablet and it works without problems.
So basically it appears as though my phone "forgot" the pass, if that even makes any sense. I know enough about encryption that that should be impossible and trying other passwords is basically pointless.
What is strange, is that it seems as if there is almost a second delay between submitting the correct password and getting the "please type again" answer, while with incorrect passwords the prompt immediately shows.
I've tried some useless things like entering the pass in recovery mode, whiping the cage and davyk cage (iirc). Restoring obviously don't work because I didn't backup before. Backing up to internal SD yields the following messages:
ClockworkMod Recovery Screen after Backup attempt:
-Start-
ClockworkMod Recovery v5.8.1.8
SD Card space free: 1902MB
Backing up Boot Image....
Backing up Recovery Image...
Backing up System...
Backing up Data...
Can't mount /data!
-End-
only change that might have taken place recently is that a week ago the superSU software successfully downloaded an update and I'm not sure but the phone may not have been rebooted since. Can SuperSU mess with any encryption/decryption password things?
I'm down to 7 chances before my system is whiped and let me say, the amount of idiocy regarding what is on that phone that is not backed up somewhere is unimaginable.
So there I am begging for your wisdom.
Has any of this happened randomly before?
Thank you so much in advance and I wish you the best of days.
P.S.: Back that data up - from a moron who doesn't want to share his feeling of remorse with other undeserving droiders
Greetings to all the developers and registered users on this site... Yes, this is my first post, but I read here pretty often and I used the search function, trust me! Seriously, I've tried all I could and I am at my wits end, but this is technology, we can't let it own us, we gotta continue owning it and that's what online communities like xda help us do, so thanks for all your past, present, and future contributions here. So I got this Metro PCS Kyocera Hydro Wave (C6740N) that I can't factory reset for a number of reasons, but mainly because I believe that there is either no boot-loader or no recovery partition as a result of Metro PCS flashing the ROM...
Anyway, lets get to the juice:
- Device powers on/off, but no combo of Vol -/+ and Power buttons bring up a recovery menu or anything (holding any combo down just boot-loops)
- Device has no SIM and no micro SD card, and the battery is not removable
- Device is locked... Like, pattern-locked/google account info/too many attempts/yada yada yada
- Device has no data and no WiFi connection active, so I could not use the google account to get past the lockscreen
- Device does not have USB debugging enabled/Google drivers for ADB do not work (Windows 7 auto-detects when I plug in the phone and installs a generic Microsoft driver which cannot be removed even after uninstalling the device, and also I pointed the Device Manager to the correct Google drivers I installed with the Android SDK Tools, as well as the Samsung Naked Universal Drivers I found on this forum, and Kyocera ADB drivers I found through Google which all failed, Windows returned a message stating that the most up-to-date or best driver for this device is already installed)
What I've tried (everything possible really):
- Hard reset/Recovery from phone: FAILED
- Connect to Linux and install ADB, then tried running the adb shell, adb devices, fastboot devices, etc but phone not detected: FAILED
- Connect to Windows 7 and install ADB (Android SDK Tools), I literally checked every single box and installed Platform-tools, google drivers, everything, got to the command prompt as admin, cd to the ADB directory, ran same commands as in linux, also tried commands on several forums and posts like adb shell rm /data/system/gesture.key to remove the lock but everything: FAILED
- Connect to Windows 7 and attempt to install proper drivers using RootGenius, MoboRobo, PDAnet, and several other suggestions which all were oblivious/unable to detect the device despite Windows recognizing it, so they all: FAILED
- Connect to Windows 7 and attempt running ADB through a Cygwin terminal, but the command "sudo" was not recognized/not valid, so: FAILED
- Connect to Windows 7 and use XRYViewer to extract data from the phone, possibly to see the system files and get an actual understanding of what everybody is saying you need to mount from the recovery partition, but no clue how to use this, since I can't find an XRY file in the internal storage, so: FAILED
- Connect to Windows 7 and access data/recover data from device using "Wondershare Dr.Fone for Android" and "iLike Android Data Recovery Pro" but both programs instructed me to enable USB Debugging, which is not possible, so the both also: FAILED
Despite this being my first post, I have scoured the forums here in addition to every other forum and webpage regarding this issue as well... There just isn't much about this phone except negative reviews, and I have come to the conclusion that on this particular model phone, I am out of options... I have a paperweight... I'm not very familiar with Android... So please correct me if I'm wrong...
Any input?
I'm curious if there are any options at this point, I have been trying to get through to this phone on several computers for the past couple days and it is frustrating me... Any input from the community would be much appreciated...
Mojo2XL, I guess you did not find an answer?

may be this:
*2767*3855# - Think before you give this code. This code is used for factory format. It'll remove all files and settings including the internal memory storage. It'll also reinstall the phone firmware.
I found code in internet, but may be it works? can't check, my "wave" comes to me from USA by post for a few weeks..

I accidentally stumbled upon a something weird. I've managed to make the camera crash to the home screen somehow. I believe this was a result of holding both volume buttons and opening numerous menus while using the camera. My guess is that it overloads it after a certain amount of times and causes it to crash. I've gotten the android UI to crash like this before. I will try to recreate the scenario and update you guys on this. it's on a Kyocera Hydro Wave. Running android 5.0 I believe. Try going wild until the phone starts to lag. eventually stuff will crash and the lock screen may go with it. use this to your advantage and enable USB debugging as quickly as possible because it will reset itself after about 30 seconds. Someone else on YouTube has recently told me that it worked for them. I would look into doing that.

Is there anything a little more realistic possible? Lol, I can see an update available, can't connect to WiFi to update haha. The stuff they lock these phones with anymore i swear
I'm new to this forum, but NOT new to this site . I have visited here on numerous occasions seeking the help that needed . With that being said, I would like to offer a Bonafide, Tried and True way to factory reset the Kyocera Hydrowave . I KNOW that this work's for I have done in on numerous occasions for a friend of mine that works for Metro PCS ....
Step One: Completely power off the phone .
Step Two: Hold the Power AND Volume DOWN Buttons SIMULTANEOUSLY .
Step Three: DO NOT release any buttons, even when you get to the Boot Menu . (Very Important, If you don't do it right, you have to start all over lol ) .
Step Four: Once inside the Boot Menu, ONLY release the Power Button; or the Boot Menu will close and you have to start all over again .
Step Five: Use the Volume Down Button to Highlight the Wipe/Factory Reset Option .
Step Six: Use the Power Button to Select the option .
Step Seven: Watch the bottom of the screen for the progress, and then use the Volume Up Button to restart .
And there you have it . I hope that this helps out SOMEONE out there, because I feel good giving back for the help that I have received on here .
PS.( If you would like for me to post a Video Tutorial on this, can someone please tell me how to post the Video; I guess by me being a Newbie on here, I'm not allowed to do as of yet ) . If Anyone needs to contact me, as I'm not on here very often, my email is [email protected] .

As unrealistic as it may sound it actually works Trust me on this. its similar to the LG attack which... is nothing but entering a long password.
betanews.com/2015/09/16/bypass-the-android-lollipop-lockscreen-by-entering-a-really-long-password
Just give it a go. it already worked for one dude on youtube. it takes a while but it honestly works. If you can get it, update the phone as soon as possible turn the screen timeout off and let it update. when the phone resets the update will install and you will be able to factory reset.
I mean it couldn't hurt. if you're locked out with no factory reset and ADB tools won't work what else can you do?
Hi guys,
I am looking for some time now into the possibility to recover data from a data wiped phone. The phone is not rooted and basically stock with MIUI installed (Xiaomi 10T Pro).
First, I tried “normal” windows data recovery programs but with these I am not able to select the internal drive of the phone when connected to the PC just the hard drive of the PC. Then I read this could be when the device is not in MTP mode but after enabling it I still couldn’t select the device. I tried different programs also some mentioned here on XDA like DiskDigger, TestDisk, GT Recovery, Restoration and so on.
Then I tried it on the phone itself with the DiskDigger App, GT Recovery, File Recovery, Photo Recovery and so on. I got the feeling that all these apps don’t really look for data or do a deep search. The progress stops usually after a second with no results at all. Access to the storage was given.
Then I tried different recovery programs for Android I found on google like EaseUS, Android Data Recovery and so on. At least a dozen of those programs. Some of them unfortunately weren’t able to recognize the phone. And honestly, most of the programs look quite the same, have similar stile websites and installers and all claim to be number 1 in restoring. I also read that they scam people but I can’t really tell because they usually want you to pay for a result. Don’t get me wrong, I have no problem in paying a price to recover some pictures but I have to pay before I even get a result if some data can be recovered. If I would get at least a preview that something was found and can be recovered I would give it a shot.
Is it really so hard to find a decent software or app that can help me with trying to recover some pictures?
If anybody can lead me in a good direction, I would really appreciate that.
Thank you!
As anyone EVER recovered data after a Factory reset?
As anyone EVER recovered data after a Factory reset? There are so many people who just give blind advice to use android recovery software which actually doesn't work. I have contacted all data recovery they claim it's not possible after Android...
