type "exit" to leave the terminal. (keep teh command window open the # should disappear) then type in "adb reboot recovery" < I think wait for roguelj to confirm (or give it a go worst theat happens is it reboots)

I cant really advise from here onwards as I dont have my scroll :( Roguelj is the one to ask

To flash the nanopad image, you need to reboot into the bootloader:
Code: Select all
adb reboot bootloader

This should reboot the scroll, but it will look like it has stuck on the splash screen.

You can then enter the fastboot commands given earlier.

** AT YOUR OWN RISK!! **

It worked for me, I can't promise it will work for you.

The adb commands needed are on page 7. I am going to make a zip with a pair of batch files and everything else needed in it.

In fact it is here:http://www.mediafire.com/?lsbapov3av0u9da

Run the batch files in order. The first will reboot into the stock recovery (so the frozzen splash screen mentioned above). the second will run the fastboot command then reboot the tablet back into the normal system.
If you want to go back into recovery again just run the first batch file and see if its changed to the new one.
