First of all you will need to download burn tool and 1170 update.
DOWNLOAD unquote
My superpad APad Flytouch 2 device is already updated to 1170 update.zip by the seller when I received it.
So in case something goes wrong while I will be making a "system update" with 1561 update.zip which I have already downloaded from the Internet I will have to follow the above instructions with the exception that instead of 1170 update.zip I will be using deb-r 2.1.1623 update,zip which I have already downloaded and keep on the desktop of my WXP PC. I also downloaded and I am keeping usbburntool for ZT-N180 software, but I think this is same for Flytouch2 version device.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks a lot.

Andre

You can do that if you wish but i would recommend updating through the system update app and if that dosent work and it hangs ant the infotmic screen i would recommend just re installing with my 1170 update and then using the system update. But it should still work if you want to do it straight to 1623 but that's not an official update. recommend going to 1561 for now
Is there a programme by which I could test and detect if the 1561 sitting on my SuperPad screen is corrupted or not before I start the system update??
my tablet is the same as the one you mention (superpad mod 10002i)
i want to foolow your steps but i cant's see them, can you help me please. The screen is green too, with the logo wowpad. PLEASE help

I have a question but u have to be much more patient with me
my tablet details :
10.2" Android 2.1 Tablet PC
CPU: Infotmic ARM11(1GHz)
Model : PC1002i
one day after I bought my tablet, I switched off and on again and that's it !! doesnt work !
- I downloaded things from the Market.
- I changed the font from ( System/fonts ) because I want to read and write using my Language
- I changed a file called ( libwebcore.so )
it was working properly but some programmes doesnt allow me to write by using my language. I decided to change libwebcore.so again.
- I restarted my tablet ... not working until now !!!!!
from where and how can I get my tablet fixed ?
no recovery image is found, try to recover from SD
this was the last message i saw on the screen
sometime it show me ( Green screen with WOWPAD logo )
sometimes only the logo of Infotmic !!
it is killing me man ... what is next ?
xaueious from this website suggested this :
That's most likely a Flytouch II variant.
now i'm asking you. what is the solution ?
Can I follow your instructions ?
Finally , I have USB cable type A ( male ) to type A ( male ). do u think I cam make it and get it fixed ?
sorry .. I really apologise .. i talked a lot ... again sorry for the inconvenience
Thanks in advance.
How to update your flytouch 2
This is my first post on this site and i hope to continue to help.
I have had my fly touch 2 for 3 days now and i have been going through 1000 of post on trying to update my flytouch 2 but no one could really help me and there is a bit of confusion on how to get in the recovery menu. Now i have been doing a bit of research which will help people who got stuck like me and hopefully get this community of the floor with more builds coming out every week like the zt-180.
First of all you need to find out what build you are on ( Settings/about device/build number)
Firmware: deb-r2.1.1561 - Official release
Firmware: deb-r2.1.1480 - official release
Firmware: deb-r2.1.1170 Seller Installed
Firmware: deb-r2.1.1001 Factory Installed
Now what i have found out is that the factory ships these devices out with 1001 and ships the seller software to update the device via a pc, the the seller is supposed to update the device to (Firmware: deb-r2.1.1170 Seller Installed). But many sellers are just shipping the devices out with the 1001 firmware. The problem with this is that there is no recovery menu and you cant install of the sd card you also cant use the system update app. So if you have been spending your time pressing button combinations and it keeps getting stuck on infotmic logo then your on 1001.
People that are on firmware 1170 and above can update using the system update app.
But if you on 1001 your out of luck you going to have to go down to your local electronics store and buy a male(A) to male(A) usb or make one if you want. I dont recommend buying of ebay, might fry your tablet if wired up wrong.
So now you know what firmware you are on and you have your usb or you just want to install updates via usb then this tutorial is for you.
MAKE SURE YOU BACK UP YOUR FILES FIRST WITH TITANIUM BACKUP AND MAKE SURE YOU KNOW YOUR REGISTRATION KEY MINE IS ON A STICKER AT THE BACK IF YOU HAVEN'T GOT ONE CONTACT YOUR SELLER
First of all you will need to download burn tool and 1170 update.
DOWNLOAD
Step 1: Extract the zip file to your desktop there should be 2 files burntool and android.
Step 2: Switch of your flytouch 2 and plug the usb into the top usb slot and into your computer.
Step 3: Hold down the menu+home+power, this will put you into usb mode.
Step4: Your computer should say a new usb device has been found and it will promote you to install it. Now if your on windows xp a window should pop up saying Install automatically or Install from know location. click install from know location and browse to your desktop and click burntool folder and click ok, it should install and promote you with a continue anyway message. For windows vista or 7 it will try to install automatically and fail and ask you for the location of the drivers.
Step 5: Now we are all set up to update your tablet. First i recommend watching this video so you understand how burntool works.
Step 6: Now your connected to the pc open up burntool (windows 7 and vista right click and run as administrator), there should be a green box in device 10.
Step 7: Click Settings, and tick burn. now copy this picture below all the files are in android folder on your desktop. If you cant find uimage in the folder make sure you its set to all file types.
Step 8: once you have located all the files click the left button at the bottom of the setting page and then click start.
No once this is done your flytouch should boot up into the new firmware, once on the home screen re register and connect to wifi and do a system update to go to the latest vision.
Just a few more things
>Yes this will fix the green screen of death.
>Make sure you keep the power plugged in at all times.
> Always remember flashing can be dangerous and it is possible you can brick your device please ask if you have any problems im sure i and others can help.
I did exactly as you mention, but i couldn't find UIMAGE, so i didn't browse it but i did everything as in the video but now that i turned it on, the green screen is still there and now the epad is turning on and off in seconds. What can i do now?

Hi All
I appear to have a flytouch and of course I have turned it into a brick by removing the power to it during the first few seconds of reloading a ROM, so it is dead dead. I have reloaded the ROM a couple of times because its an Ebay special and keeps falling over. I have used the WMT2.1.2_105 Roms kindly supplied by Tipster(Thank You Tipster). This time its just a black screen with a green LED no life. As I have killed it I have taken it apart to see if there is any way to resurrect it and lo and behold it has a Male (A) usb port on a daughter board hidden in it. I get a flashing LED but Windoze refuses to talk to it saying its a unknown USB device. I have tried the driver in Burntool and PDAnetW20, but its still not known any ideas? the motherboard is a WMS8105C and its chip is WM8505. It looks like I need a way to reload the bootloader but need a way to get the usb port recognized. There are 2 chips on the USB daughterboard one is HYNIX 7UAG8T2 MTR and the other is FC8508. I have a picture of the board if anybody is interested.
