Do any of you have opening tools for phone repair ? I wanna try disconnecting battery and connecting it back but don't have the toolkit for it.
How about you guys ? I might have to get it from Amazon.
It's quite clear to me that mindlessly pressing the buttons won't
do it.
Let me know.

Did your tablet's LED turned orange or green after charging it all night ?
A guy from Lenovo's Support says we need to leave it on charger until LED turns orange or green. Then the tool will work.
I've had it charging for 2 hours now and it's still red.
@fp2andfp3-user
I've reached out to people who maintain the downloads and recommended them to add a warning to that particular ROM for others to avoid it. That way more people won't end up with dead tablets.
@fp2andfp3-user
Well it may not work on my tablet because my tablet isn't just turned off like @Luksus but it has ROM that won't boot and that's why it's turned off. @Luksus just turned it off while his tablet is in working condition.
That's just an opinion.
If his way of doing it works for you there's a good chance that I'm doing something wrong.
@fp2andfp3-user
Date of manufacture of my tablet is stated as 16/04/2021
@FP2andFP3-User has this ^ worked for you ? It hasn't for me.
The flash tool doesn't react when tablet is connected at all on my end.
@fp2andfp3-user
I hate to say this but quite a few people fixed their non-responsive tablets by opening it up, disconnecting the battery for few seconds, connecting it back and then try to power it on.
I don't like the idea of butchering a new tablet but if we don't do anything we got ourselves a pretty expensive paper weight.
I noticed the dead tablet is still sort of detected by Windows
but the tablet isn't listed in either fastboot devices nor in adb devices
@luksus
Yeah I'll leave it charging for few hours. Though when I started messing with it the battery was well over 50%. No harm in leaving it on a charger.
@kugiigi
Yep ... I've tried to torture the buttons in many different ways.
@kugiigi
I've got completely dead tablet. Won't power on.
Things I've tried and done:
pressing and holding different combos of buttons to invoke
fastboot
checked if tablet can be detected by SP Flash Tool
downloaded and installed Lenovo Rescue Tool and checked
adb and USB drivers. (tool won't detect tablet on pressed volume up and plug in)
posted and researched on XDA site.
@fp2andfp3-user
These tools should detect device within few seconds. It shouldn't take minutes.
I'm just wondering what we've done with it that even this tool can't seem to help.
I'd like to suggest to flag (or delete) that ROM from list of downloads. At least 3 devices are dead because of it.
The last thing the UT community needs is more dead tablets.
@kugiigi
No the flash tool isn't detecting the tablet. Good thinking with the Lenovo Rescue Tool. It has option to restore completely "dead" device. Sadly the restoration progress is stuck on "connect device and do flashing". Following:
) and disconnect from PCIt looks like even their own tool can't detect it.
Will keep trying. All UT devices I've had were acting up at first and then they folded and UT was on it.
@kugiigi
Unfortunately I'm sure as it is the second ROM I tried and it was 10. I reckon it was the oldest release in that downloads folder which is little bit odd since it was supposed to be downloads folder with Android 9 releases.
I'm trying to find out if there's any chance of getting TWRP working on it but how if it won't even boot into fastboot.
@kugiigi
I had TB-X606F_S100015_191127_BMP working on the tablet. But it was Android 10, not 9. Then I went on the next ROM which is the ROM ending 923 and the tablet won't power on.
@kugiigi
Yeah that's right. I'm trying now just to get Android 9 working on the tablet.
@luksus
OK so it looks like me pressing the power button had no effect on the error. It outputted the same error without me touching any buttons.
Failed to connect DA is at least some clue.
I don't know if it helps but I noticed this error output when trying to flash the tablet with another ROM. Right before it fails it outputs:

I got this output by pressing the power button while the flash tool is attempting to connect.
Hi all,
I got this tablet just today to flash it with UT.
I've followed instructions here https://gitlab.com/ubports/community-ports/android9/lenovo-tab-m10-fhd-plus/lenovo-x606#install
One of the steps is to downgrade the tablet to Android 9.
I tried ROMs from here https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/lenovo/Tab_M10_FHD_Plus_2nd_Gen/ one by one to find out which one is Android 9. After flashing the third ROM tablet won't
power on anymore. LED indicating charging is on but pressing
the power button does nothing and holding volume down + power button does nothing either.
SP Flash tool gave no errors during the flash yet the tablet won't
power on.
My model is X606F MediaTek.
Any suggestions ?
@dobey
I'll be testing it and if it keeps crashing on my devices I'll report it as an issue so the community knows.
