Tesco Hudl1: Tesco Hudl 1 - blind factory reset

Tue, 20 Oct 2020 06:25:23 -0700

I have this Tesco Hudl 1 which a friend literally found under a hedge, and gave me to see if I could fix it. It takes charge and if you try to power it up there are signs of life (faint screen backlight glow) but no display. However if you plug in an external HDMI screen it produces a display, and even responds to a mouse and keyboard plugged into the USB port. But it boots to a lock screen and I've no idea what the password might be.

I tried a replacement screen but it was no better. Presumably the problem is with the LCD driver. However, it'd be neat and an interesting challenge to get it working with the external screen, mouse and keyboard and possibly to root it.

It should be possible to do a factory reset by pressing the power and volume-up buttons, which should show the system recovery menu, but unfortunately this menu is not displayed on an external screen, and I don't know how many times to press Volume Down to get to the factory reset menu item.

Could someone please tell me the system recovery menu structure and the precise sequence of button presses to do a blind factory reset, including any delays necessary after releasing the power and volume-up buttons before the system recovery menu appears.

Tesco Hudl1: Are there custom ROMs for this device?

Sun, 29 Nov 2020 12:22:30 -0700

This device is running Android 4.2.2 so some of the apps I want to use aren't compatible. The Hudl isn't getting any more updates so I need to find a custom ROM but my usual sources haven't discovered any (xda devs).

Tesco Hudl1: How do I get off erasing screen?

Sun, 10 Mar 2019 06:18:05 -0700

Right, so I bought my son the Hudl, from an exchange shop, was setting it up and noticed it was running very slow.

I hard reset it and when it gave me the options to factory reset etc i accidentally pressed the “update using ADB’.

I am now stuck on an erasing screen, if I press the power button and the volume up button I then get the “send the package you want to apply to the device with ‘adb sideload’” I have no idea what I’m meant to press on this, if I press the volume up and power it goes back to the erasing screen and will stay on that for ages.

I just need to get back to the hard reset page so that I can press what I need to press.

Can anybody help?
