What firmware version was it on before you tried the upgrade? The one on their website is only for the version 1.00 firmware.

Have you tried accessing the recovery menu? (hold vol+ key and power on until you see the android guy, then press the menu hard button)

My mistake, it is the home button you need.

What options do you have visible in the recovery menu? There are os images in the forum for various firmware versions that can be flashed onto the device using adb.

As it looks like you have used the official upgrade from Storage Options and that has messed up your scroll - It would be best to contact them to help you fix it or get them to replace the scroll.

As for your firmware version - if you are not able to boot the scroll into a complete working mode (ie get to the home screen) - you are not going to be able to find out the info. If you can the info is in:- Setting >> About Phone (you get to the settings from the home screen, by pressing the hard menu button or the icon in the top right-hand corner of the screen, that looks like 3-4 lines)

You could try downloading the boot.img from the
posted firmware dumps on this site, either 1.02 or 1.02s.
then use adb to flash the boot.img.

Please don't ask how too use adb..lol
