A1 passes ball with two hands to A2 and A2 does not see pass and A1 retrieves ball A) with one hand and dribbles, B) with two hands and dribbles ball.

First, I'll assume (yeah, I know) that (a) A1 hasn't dribbled before this, (b) the "pass" hits the floor before A1 retrieves it and (c) A1 didn't lift the pivot foot before "passing" the ball.

IF so, then the "pass" is really a dribble. So, the Parts B (where A1 retrieves the with two hands) end the dribble. Subsequent dribbles are a violation.

The Parts A (where A1 retrieves the ball with one hand) are referee judgment. IF A1 just continued the dribble, the play is legal. If the ball came to rest in A1's hand, then that act ends the dribble and the subsequent dribble is illegal.
