the risk is very slow, just insert your dc adapter keep power enough.

flash spl is just use 1 second,that's risky

and the newer version,will mandate flash spl because will change the flash oob driver portal


changelist:
1 usb function adb push/pull w/r: 250KB/750KB
2 only sd work in mass storage function w/r: 3MB/11MB (not compatible with adb,need flash kernel)
3 usb host gps test (not sure)
4 usb host wifi support rt8188/8192 (need removed orginal 3070 module at first )
5 battery life maybe longer
6 factory reset

For testing usb gps:
1 burn adb kernel
2 connect usb host with gps module
3 boot up
4 connect to adb
5 run adb shell
6 ls /dev/ttyUSB* and see if there is ttyUSB9 is appear

i just tested it

2. connect to pc and make sure device has been fully charged
3. press round button and power button
4. pc will detect new hardware (if you do it first time), install driver from secbulk
5. run burntool .exe , if driver was installed successfully , there is a green block in the first line
6. click start (do not change settings)
7. zt180 will displayer message "show enter downloading "
8. wait and until it shows "update successfully , please unplug your your usb cable"

I'm liking 1030 and don't want to take a risk testing this if you can't flash back to it, so I'm going to wait for an official release I think, or at least feedback from people who own more than one tablet and can take the risk of testing this on one...

BTW, the password for the burntool settings is zenithink for those who are going to try it....

Please read the following too..

JT, have you tried this? I believe you are supposed to flash everything at once with the new burntool, it has different settings, from the look of it, again, I haven't burned it to the tablet and probably won't, and you know why, but I did unzipped every rar and looked at the contents and tried to see the settings in burntool.....

It's in the provided burntool, and I think you can't go back because it will create new "recovery" partition, so the new nand parameters won't work with the old ROM files, but I could be completely wrong...

Update: Yeah, I was wrong (I still haven't tested, but from reading others who have), no recovery partition, just changed the oob values, that's why you can't flash back apparently.

update method:

1 first, it's a test version.
2 don't try the password in setting button. if you do,and you don't know what you are doing,please delete the ''burn.ini" if it exist.
3 copy ZT_Bx.spl ZT_Bx.boot zImage system.pack.img userdata.pack.img to burntool.exe directory. do not copy burntool to last old version directory(there has burn.ini).
4 connect to usb and press menu button,make usb update connect.
5 when device10 show green,just press start directly

just keep power is enough when you update spl/boot
you don't need update spl again in new version if you update once

why can't rollback to last version:
1 we change the oob layout in nand because we add mmc/sd update system and compatible with CE
2 we change some nand bad block marked rule because of some constomer's strange problem
3 this is compatible with newer version and last ce/android double systems version

thank you pay attention to zt-180
update is your decision

I don't understand, you say not to enter the password, but how are you supposed to tell the burntool where to get the files from, when I openned the burntool with the password, everything was blank for Android, only WinCE settings were set and they weren't even checked, in the old burntool, it had the previous settings for Android. So is this 2.1 or 2.2? Why change the update method without making sure you could flash a previous version? It is great to have improvements, but not if it changes what previously worked correctly. Does the mic work with this ROM? Or is this test only for adb and gps? ...
