Hey cristian,
Thnxx for the reply... I would be carefull.
I knw there is no way to access the fastboot I too myslef tried to find it.

adb reboot boot-fastboot

got my tablet into fastboot mode. (none of the other equivalent 'reboot' commands worked though.)

And even the app manager in firefox coudnt detect the device..any help on
this??

Erm, yeah, there was an issue there. When in fastboot mode, Mac OS X does not see the USB device; however, glinux did, on the same hardware. I think 'lsusb' shows you the device and then you have to play with permissions to get access to it; and note the USB info is different in 'fastboot' mode and in 'adb' mode! Personally, I had to reboot into glinux to actually flash the images. I suspect the USB info sent out by the device is invalid so Mac OS X filters it out but glinux show it to you and does not care. Either that, or the USB connection of the tablet is flaky.

I wonder how to flash the device if I make my own flatfish version. As adb
cant detect the device??
And I ven the full factory image come der is no option to self update the
device? So how to update it? Or we continue to use 1.4 till any alternative
comes??

The tablet is built on an AllWinner System-on-a-Chip (SoC) which has a kick-ass feature that it will *by default* try booting from the sdcard first if it finds a zip bundle of the right name. So we could learn to hack the tablet simply by putting a zip bundle on the sdcard card ... maybe ... someday. Note I have not yet successfully built the boot.img and wasted lots of time getting a functional tablet once again so I have not yet tried this approach.

I would recommend you to not try that. Because it is very possible to
brick your device.
I and other few guys we bricked our tablet when we tried to update tablet.
And it seems it screwed something in the tablet.
I've tried to fix tablet, but it seems there's something with the
partitions.

And there's tablets with no access to fastboot.

Stay safe! At least till we get factory full images for tablet.
