Well done! Now that you mention it, I remember I had to install Windows USB drivers too. Hopefully, all future updates will be by OTA.

My question is, how can I unbrick the tablet and restore it to its original state, without installing the new firmware? I took the precaution of doing a full backup prior to attempting the upgrade.…[Read more]
