I have a AudioVox T852 tablet that is stuck on logo, there's no button combo to enter recovery only thing it has is a reset pin hole tried numerous times and nothing my computer recognizes the tablet but can't find driver.. I reached out to the company and asked for the USB drivers and firmware if possible.. There reply was "Sorry to hear your having trouble but this tablet is no longer supported" to which I replied " No longer supported so **** me right" so how can I or what drivers can I install so I can try and fix it.. Thanks

I don't have this device and I personally can't locate any real threads for this as well...
The best thing I can do is to provide you with the following links that will, hopefully, be helpful to you.

Yeah ive been up and down those links every link but cant do anything without the drivers i tried force installing drivers that come close but nothing. I was even thinking of writing my own usb drivers for the heck of it but ill check every other option before heading down that road ...thanks anyways

When you say that you tried force installing the drivers and came close but nothing, what do you mean "came close" exactly?
Do you have the driver install .exe to install them? When you install them, does it say they were successfully installed but you still get nothing? If so, you may have to manually configure the driver through device manager. I've had to do this with a couple of tablets to get PC to recognize the device while in fastboot.

Just to be clear theres no drivers for Audiovox T852 tablet at all, even the damm company that makes them refuse to hand it over. They said since its not supported anymore anything and everything for the Audiovox T852 is deleted out there system (when does anyone actually completely delete anything?Right?) Now when i say close i mean i did force install a USB MTP Driver but with a error 10 something along service or drivers could not start. My pc reconized it T852 but with a ? But anytype of commands or software i use to try and anything just wont work without The Damm drivers.. o 1 more thing the T852 also has no fastboot mode or recovery to get into..

It's hard to believe that the drivers haven't been stored/posted somewhere else by someone using some kind of online file sharing site or forum, even if they weren't kept by the manufacturer.
I looked up the specs for your device, the specs say that you have an Amlogic Cortex A9 CPU architecture, have you tried drivers for other devices that use Amlogic Cortex A9 processor?
Also, when in device manager, try selecting the device on the list then right click then select "properties" then select the "details" tab then click on the drop down menu under "property" that shows "device description" by default then select "hardware IDs", write down the ID values, it will be more than one line of ID codes, then do some Google searches to find drivers for those ID codes? Sometimes that will find drivers that work for those hardware IDs, even if the drivers weren't specifically built or offered by the manufacturer of your hardware. Sometimes installing a driver that matches the hardware ID gets that particular hardware ID to work and gets it recognized by the system but then the system detects another "layer" of hardware with its own hardware ID that also needs a driver. Sometimes, if you go layer by layer installing drivers for each new hardware ID that gets exposed by the last driver that you installed, you can eventually get to where each "layer" is recognized, if you are lucky enough to find drivers for each hardware ID layer, you get to where the device is completely recognized correctly. I've done this before to get hardware recognized when I had nothing to go by to identify the device or component.

That's why I said I'm down to writing creating my OWN drivers I've litterly did the ins and outs and then some..

I know it's frustrating, I can't stand the crap that comes with messing with Chinese devices. You asked, I posted everything I could think of.
Also, I wouldn't brag about changing a blacklisted IMEI and cracking software here at XDA. That kind of thing isn't tolerated here because it's illegal in most places. Guys that do that kind of thing around here get banned from the site.

I wasn't bragging is was intended so that time isn't wasted with noobish, common sense, or beginners replys that's all, but my fault going over what I said i definitely missed the point I wanted to get across..

It says you need to have a developer unlocked phone and also have chevron.
Either a developer account, OR Chevron. Chevron only works on the older OS, and not the newer.
A $99 investment for a developer account is a small price to pay to load any application you want onto the phone (including c++ code to get to that Bluetooth radio!). You even get a nice little XAP deployment tool.

well you try it? and how is it working?
Has anyone got this to work? My Arrive is developer unlocked but I can't get the driver to show up in Device Manager on Windows 7 64bit. It seems to connect to my laptop but then no internet connection on the laptop from my arrive.
Thanks for any help,

Same here. has anyone got this to work?
I can't make it work.
Anyone have any new info on tethering the Sprint HTC Arrive?
I spent about 3 hrs on this today. Sprint arrive developer unlocked tried on my windows xp 32bit. It appears the drivers dont want to take. It says not recognized or something along those lines. Its a fairly common problem on the other thread but i have some ideas hopefully ill get to try in the upcoming days.
I have had some success. If you read the dfrouter thread than you are familiar with the process. 2 drivers must be installed on the pc first for it to work. I have the usb modem driver installed after messing around with the file. If i can get the other driver to go i believe ill be able to tether.
This modified driver is running on windows xp and appears to be ready. If anyone has a xp 32bit pc and please pm and we'll see if the driver works for you as well.
If I get the other driver to go ill tether and upload everything.
progress
I spent a few hours on trying to get the vcom driver working last night to no avail.
-on my first attempt i was able to get the driver to be recognized by the pc as the htc diagnostic tool but at the last screen it always said failed.
-on my second attempt i was able to get the driver installed but i dont think it was done properly because it was not recognized as the htc diagnostic tool.
I pm'd a few members on here so we'll see if one of them comes to the rescue, otherwise i'll try again this weekend.
after i get the xp drivers working i believe the windows 7 drivers will be easier.
To get the usbmodem driver to work i only had to change the device id to match the arrive's. the vcom doesnt appear to be that easy, df wrote that it has to be installed as its some kind of qualcom security check.
The weird thing was that i got the 6xx error that others reported when dialing out but it would only dial out in "zune mode" and not "router mode". I dont know if that is because of the vcom driver or not but that behavior was not mentioned at all in the other thread.
Driver?
I posted this in the "Update" thread, too....but figured it was relevant to this discussion....
So, I got the update a couple of days ago, daughter yesterday, wife this morning. I've got two more Arrives to go.
One thing I noticed was that when the phone was put into update mode, my Win7 gave the "found new hardware" dialog and I have a HTC 9#### (I don't remember the number but it was something like 96300 or so -- and a quick google the other day revealed it to be the right model number) driver show up when I clicked on the details. When I plug it in now, it just goes to Zune software again and I can't see the number.....but a driver got loaded.
Did MS push a driver or did whatever flashing mode cause Win7 to recognize it? This might go alonEg with the tethering work being carried out......
EDIT: 93100. Looked through history.
Thats good to know. ive yet to update but i seen it was available so i will do so tomorrow.
Does this driver remain when shown under device manager with the phone plugged in? I will upload the xp 32 htc usb modem driver tomorrow to this post. perhaps this driver can help.
After getting the update, when I plug in the phone, it shows up as "Windows Phone USB" (or was it USB Windows Phone) and not as the 91300. It only showed up in that mode when the phone screen was in a different mode....so, I guess similar to the HTC USB Modem driver screen shot shown above.
EDIT: Found a picture of what the screen looked like when the "New Hardware" was found.... http://www.wp7connect.com/tag/ssl/
success
I'll be updating this afternoon
Here's both the vcom and usbmodem drivers
I was able to get it to work after wahwka helped me
They should install 1st time when you manually force the drivers
here's the thread which I found very useful
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922000
Now here's what's really interesting
The modem ONLY dials out in "Zune Mode" not "Router Mode" which is the opposite of what everyone says on that thread.
So it would seem the dfrouter app is not needed at all on the arrive.
Like the modem can be used right out the box if the PC had drivers.
More people need to test what I've found.
I have not been able to connect yet I get error 692 but it may be just a setting is wrong as people have posted in that thread.
I will get working on some windows 7 drivers and see what happens on that PC
I believe the pc I have at my disposal is windows 7 64 so thats what I'll get working on next.
ALSO this app may be dangerous if you're only chevron unlocked read the thread
theres a possibility you may not be able to sync with zune.
I'm developer unlocked so I don't worry about this.
The developer took a lot of heat for this program and he was only trying to help the community so read first.
Id recommend making a backup first. Ill post the win 7 32 bit drivers here tomorrow. I'm still getting error 692 on this [email protected] computer too. I'm begining to wonder if something needs to be changed/tweaked in the phone program to get it to work. Ive just started learning silverlight so maybe ill ask dfvn.
Windows 7 32 Drivers attached.
I'll begin working on windows 7 64 next.
W7 64 Drivers
Windows 7 64 Drivers
This one seemed to be a b&%$h to install
Here's how I got them to install
I plug in the phone via usb
A bubble appears in the bottom right corner saying windows update is looking for drivers
click it
when the next window pops up click the cancel installing drivers
(These steps have to be done quickly or drivers will install and you will have 2 devices portable device HTC T7575 and windows usb device)
If done quick enough you will have two unknown devices _MI01 and _MI00
Force the drivers to install as previously written and ignore the MS warnings and they will install.
From here I notice the same things in all 3 PC setups
The drivers only appear to install in "Zune Mode"
In "Router Mode" I can only get one device to show up
"HTC" MI_00 and MI_01
If I uninstall, click usb sync, htc modem, no matter what I do I cannot get 2 unknown devices unless its in "Zune Mode"
--This needs to be tested by others--
If others come up with the same results
Then this tells us 2 things
1. Our phone or the way it interacts with dfrouter is different than the other wp7 phones that dfrouter works on
2. There is a chance that the htc arrive can be used as a modem without dfrouter and anybody will be able to use it as a modem
Has anyone called Sprint to see when they will offer tethering?
I have been using the APN "internet.com"
If this is not right it could be the reason I have'nt been able to connect
because the modem does appear to dial out
I might be wrong, but I think the APN is supposed to be blank for CDMA carriers. I can't post links but Google "tcp_apn_etc_for_sprint" and see the pinstack thread.
I have already been having problems with my Arrive's EVDO modem getting stuck in "null state" (kills all wireless data until RTN wipe) so I will probably wait for a more stable tethering solution.
For what it's worth I am running WinXP 32bit and using the attached drivers when playing around in QPST/QXDM and in USB Storage Mode. Hope some of this helps you!
I need some help. I will set up the scenario first. My Cap has had the unbrickmod performed on it about 8 months ago. I had the battery fall out ib the middle of a flash. I was getting the phone /computer "you screwed up a firmware install" animation. I tried to get it cleared up with Odin and now it is black screen no matter what I try. Can't get download, or recovery, and the usb jig won't even get it into download. I am completely unschooled and self taught with pc and phones and I think I have done pretty well. Now, I have taken another big step and after reading up on what to do next, I installed successfully, Ubuntu in my laptop (xp pro)and I can dual o.s. or boot either o.s. individually and everything seems to work fine. I downloaded UnBrickResrectR40, HIBL.zip, and java jre7.0.5. Ihave no clue about Linux or command lines,but after reading a million different claims on how to install these files i was finally able to get the java installed. But, I can't get the unbrickres file to install. I always get an error saying file not found by regex. Now I have copies in downloads,desktop, home, files, and have changed permissions and types(jar,javaw.exe,zip.gz) and still nothing. No forums or help pages help. They all give directions as if you know what you are doing already. They must figure if you got this far you are a tech or a dev, not a noob electrician who can't even type. I need some seriously slow,detailed,step by step,hand holding through this one, if someone has the patience. Back to the phone. The only thing that shows any life in the phone at all is when it is plugged into my laptop. It doesn't show up anywhere but under device manager. It shows under "universal serial bus devices" as, SEC S5PC 110 Test B/D , location 0,device is working properly,driver provider-libusb.org, driver date-7-13-2009,driver version-6.7.7600.16385, not digitally signed. That is it. I need some direction. What do I do now? Hopefully someone feels adventurous.Thanks

Have you tried the Windows tool Windows32DriversAndCommandLineApp.zip ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242466
Thanks for the advice
Thanks Silvertag, I appreciate the fact that you even read my post. I was running late for work, but wanted to get something on the boards.
I will check out the link you suggested. Much appreciated.
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..

Hey hold the buttons as follows volume- & power at the exact same time while your phone is off be warned if you phone was preowned you need the goole account originally activeated with that phone if you do not have that then your in the same vote as me i cant remember any of my gmail account info to my wave from when i had it active I have litterally tried every thing to recover the info and i still can't recover it

let me work on this, been trying to master as many FRP bypasses as i can. I don't have the device but a client is in the same boat
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.

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.

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?
I am a PC technician and don't know much about phones. A customer brought me in a mostly dead phone and wants pictures of his kids recovered. I believe this is probably possible given the state. I want to give enough information without overloading anyone looking to help, so I will put it in sections.
What I know about the phone:
I never saw it working and I'm not a phone guy. The back says the model is XT901. This customer is not a tech, so only push updates would have likely been done., if even those were done. It came in roughly 2 weeks ago. That is pretty much the extent of what I know about the phone and its OS.
What the problem is:
When booting normally the Motorola logo comes up with the swirling blue around it. It stays on that screen forever.
What the phone can do:
I can get into a couple different menu systems with different key presses (which I don't exactly remember right now. It's kind of trial and error to get into the one I want). The less helpful menu has a "Recovery" option which just makes the phone boot to the swirling logo again. By retrying with different keypress combinations I can get it to show the android on his back with the exclamation mark. From there I can reboot into a different menu, where I found QC Diag, among other things.
What I need to do:
I need to connect the phone to a Windows 7 Professional 64 bit computer to recover, especially, pictures of his kid that he didn't have backed up.
The problem I ran into:
Four devices do show up in the device manager as "Unknown device". I did manage to get the QC Diag port set up following the instructions here:
googlebought.blogspot.com
/2014/12/motorola-qc-diagnostic-driver.html (separated because I can't post links, but the information might be important)
I used the PID listed on the page since I have no idea what to change it to or even if I need to change it, but it did seem to work for one unknown device. I then right-clicked on each of the 4 "Unknown" devices and browsed to that folder. One was detected and updated, the Motorola QC Diag Port on COM3. This did not make a drive letter show up as I had hoped.
What I have tried:
Downloading a few dozen drivers to get all 4 of these devices detected, starting with the latest standard drivers for the phone, Motorola Device Manager 2.5.4 and Motorola Mobile Drivers Installation 6.4.0. This is how I got to just 4 devices listed as "Unknown". Of course, there are currently only 3 unknown since getting the QC Diag port going.
My technical abilities:
I have been a PC tech for about 15 years and am pretty good at it. I have rooted Android devices before, but frankly that's just "download a program, push a button". I am utterly unskilled in Android, but I can follow even complicated instructions.
I am hoping that there is a mode I can go into (I believe I've tried all I can get into) or a driver I can install which will allow me to browse the directories on the phone. I realize this is more complicated than it sounds because of the difference in file systems. I would imagine that since I can see these devices in certain modes this is probably possible.
Thank you in advance for any help you can offer. I'm sorry it's long-winded, but I wanted to be thorough. Hopefully it's organized enough that you can skip over any information you don't need.

Hi and welcome to XDA.
Your device has a dedicated forum here but it's very quiet as it isn't the most popular phonein the world.
You can try posting your query there or in: Android Q&A,Help and Troubleshooting.
You'll have to create an account to post in the main forums.
Good luck
Have you done with this site? Happy new year by the way...
Dont expect people to post in relevant sections when the section links point to bloatads.... btw, where are the relevant sections now?
Ok I'll try here... got a lenovo TB-X103F, repairing it for an old woman next door, but hey, guess what, seems lenovo have killed it in every way... for instance...
I deduced at first the battery was the problem, but after removing battery packs and applying power direct to battery terminals, it was not JUST the battery... she could not even click her account to login!, so she buys a new one, and tells me to keep this one. So I fire it up intending to root it, only adb wont recognise device.. fastboot wont recognise it, so try the qualcomm drivers, the qpst drivers etc, nothing, all it shows is unknown device in my win 7 x64 machine.
I factory restored it, but cant even login to wifi, strange, because it is going through my cmts and network switch, and doing some data transfer, yet all it does on screen is say either saved, or wlan connection failure, proving lenovo ****ed this poor old woman over as I guessed, in order to make her buy a new tablet, which she did, and it was not a lenovo, haha, so in a nutshell, I'm trying to bring some kind of life back to this device, but the skip is greyed out at the choose wifi screen, and without adb or fastboot showing...? Any hints?
