My Keedox A10 quadcore TV box is launching directly into XBMC upon powerup and bypassing the factory OS and launchers.

How can I reset this device to factory settings? I no longer have access to a file manager or android settings.

Thanks in advance.

I will pray for God to miracle it back to initial condition

You are sooo screwed...😃 (just kidding).

I mainly use it for XBMC anyway, but have lost ability to launch any other apps or manage files.

Tinfoil on the antenna will fix a TV box most times.

Have you signed up for ObamaCare yet? Registered Democrat? Pledged to join the local party-state organ? Your passcode will be handed out at the next community meeting.

Haha! I was thinking the same thing.

I just don’t wanna get yelled at!

Nope, nope and nope.

I’m not familiar with the Keedox A10 but found this link which seems informative...

Not sure if it covers the topic you’re looking for though.

Good luck.

What have you tried? If it’s like an appliance, try unplugging and replugging it. If it’s like a computer, maybe there is a preferences panel that can allow you to reset it. Otherwise, relax and try going slowly through the manual. Also, there may be an online support forum for your Keedox A10 at the company’s website that holds a FAQ post that will tell you how to do the reset.

Another YT video shows a reset hole next to the card slot at about the 01:58 mark. It may not be the same model as yours but look next to the card slot anyway.

This is what went away.

Take it out to the car, put it on top of a tire, then slowly drive forward 8 feet. Travel back and forth several times and I guarantee that it will never screw up again.

Hillary is the “reset” expert.

...And maybe there is something in the XBMC preferences/ manual/ support site that will tell you how to bypass it to get to the OS.

Trying to be helpful here.
