Lmao the tablet has a security mechanism

When battery reaches 5 %, it won't boot anymore

Probably to prevent a CMOS reset

that's the battery protection probably

That means that if I deep uncharge it, I risk fucking the battery because the system tries to prevent me from doing it

Locked down tablets hurray

you probably just need to remove the screen

It's not that easy, it's an aluminum frame with a few bolts and no screws

I could probably bent it open

Dremel

lmao that's drastic

But fun

I'll just tell him to toss the tablet if that doesn't work, I'm helping out of friendlyness

@porco what model is tablet

You could see if it can be forced via usb-tools

It's some dell with x86 bay trail cpu, not sure about the exact model

Lemme see

There are a few that look like that

Looks like it could be a dell venue something

I can't verify unless I reset the bios

Venue probly if its gaytrail

Can power-vol down make it into flash ?

I've put it between two books so that the power button gets constant pressure so that it turns on the screen to show the battery warning every few seconds

I'll go for deep discharge

No I tried everything like that

It does go into flash but I don't see the screen and it doesn't take any input

If I plug it into the computer via USB, I can't write to the device either

The owner fiddled with the bios to install Linux and now it's ded

Aww shuck

Aint dells configed to autoupdate from usb stick ?

I mean throw new fimware at it

It shouls auto-process it as far as i know

And ofc in process reset bios
