1. format your sdcard2. open firmware using 7zip3. drag "script" folder from 7zip to sdcard4. place sdcard on device5. boot device

How do you make it work? I try to follow the steps but the screen go black and nothing come up. I formar and try to make it again, and nothing. Now i cant use the device.Any help for this???I use winrar to copy the files, has to be 7zip???

Use anything to open the compressed firmware it's a Zip or RAR file (I forget), use your preferred unpacking software. There will be a folder marked "Script", you take that folder and you put it on the SD card, insert the SD card in the device and turn it on, it will then update your machine.

I bricked one using winrar. use 7zip as it uncompresses the files exactly as they were compressed. Too many have bricked units and the only difference was winrar which seems to add some noise to the files.READ BEFORE TRYING TO UPDATE ROM!

7zip is also not a good choice, when using Vista, it seems. www . devcomments. com/jnlp-problem-with-Windows-Vista-at264396. htmHaven't looked into the other OS's.

i still cant make it work. i decompress with 7-zip and the tablet dont do nothing, i only see green light and black screen. Any tip to save the tablet or i just lost them?

Green light? Are you sure you have an m002? M002 units do not have a green light.

Sato92 · Nov 10, 2010

after updating to firmware from ekengroup.com. m002 said to remove sd card. but then screen goes black and nothing happens. only blue light goes on. making update by manual

mammlouk · Nov 10, 2010

You can try a few things. 1. Reflash2. Reflash with a different firmware/rom3. format and clean sdcard and try again.

Gonzo2K · Mar 25, 2011

Firmware upgrades have started just fine and then get to the point of erasing system files and fails...
