How to factory reset Onyx M92 (via hardware shortcut)?

SadTimes · 03-11-2018, 07:34 PM

Hello all

Does anyone know if there is a hardware shortcut to initiate a factory reset of the Onyx M92? Something like holding reset and power for 2 seconds...

My M92 is bricked but I just unbricked a Kobo by pressing Home and reset, so it got me wondering if my old 9.2" reader could be saved with the same technique. Kobos include a back-up partition for the factory settings though and I'm not sure if Onyx readers do.

If not, I'm open to talking more about how to unbrick my lovely M92.

Cheers

But I don’t own this device. Good luck.

There is a reset hole in the rear under the BOOX logo.

After the reset, you can flash an original firmware.
