uys, correct me if I'm wrong. Apx mode is after android device boots with pressed adequate combination of buttons. Then we see eg. " android system recovery ( rev.29) <3e> " If yes I ve just entered in it several times on my tablet s.
When tablet is off push and hold vol + - togetha and next hit power on button and wait

That would be recovery menu. APX mode the screen is blank and comes up different in device manager.

Only screenshots can convince to us:laugh:
Problem, i cannot get back on APX mode once i do it once so you better try yourself and see where you will go like: Press and hold volumeup while in system then shutdown while holding the up button ect.
Has i already tryed also, the others managed to get in once but they cannot get back in :p

Condi,
I also got apx mode once by chance, but i didnt manage to do it again.
I entered into recovery several times while rebooting and pressing the recovery buttons, one of the times it just got into apx...
Same thing after my first try of getting in with Volup+Power connected to the PC :D

Hmm not working for me. Did it come up with installing new drivers etc in windows?

No, i had Printers and devices opened, the S1 was on and i was holding Volume up while shutting down and powering on, it worked and after that, i tryed to do it again but all i got was the Sony logo screen flashing a little then it powered off.
By the way, i was using Windows 8 Release Preview.

today again i've entered apx mode.
i've installed nvflash for tegra devices.
again (3rd time) when I try to load bootloader.bin it gives me:
Code:
nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --getpartitiontable partitiontable.txt
Nvflash started
rcm version 0X4
Command send failed (usb write failed)
Anybody has some experience with apx mode,
if I will get again apx mode, then I would like to know
what would work better, then gives error and exits apx..
