<div>Also, the Mele is the first A10 device I know of that has a
*working* recovery partition, for OTAs. The rest of the
manufacturers leave the upgrading process exclusive to Livesuit,
although the recovery partition is still there and, when there's
a recovery, you can boot it to it (on tablets) by holding a
volume key.</div>

Yes... i successfully upgraded from 1.2 to 1.3 via OTA without
problems... <br>

The device is *unbrickable*, not at an Android level, but at a
SoC level. There's a firmware image for the 1.2 firmware on the
Mele website. You can use it with a tool called PhoenixCard (it
is included) to create an "special" SD card image which will
flash the firmware to NAND.

Due to I was deinstalling hardcoded chinesse apps the launcher (and
the device) turns unestable and get lots of error in screen....
(TIP: First you must delete the widgets from the desktop and then
(and only then) deinstall the apps ... )<br>
<br>
I must to "burn" a special recovery SD to restore it... <br>
<br>
As Alejandro said the tool is PhoneixCard... <br>
<br>
This tool is a little tricky ... Only works (almost with my tests
on Windows 7 ) only if you has an only removable unit and this
unit is your SD unit.... If you (like me ) has an integrated usb
<br>
MMC , MS, SD, XD, etc. multireader.... you must disable ( at
windows device manager ) all of the related unit except the SD
one... <br>
<br>
You select the image , check the "Product" option , press the
"Burn" button and wait a few minutes... and voila! you get a
recovery SD<br>
Now, power offf (if not already) the Mele device insert the
recovery SD and turn it on ... The blue led ... starts to
blink... <br>
You must wait to the blue led stop blinking ... then extract the SD
and turn it on... The device should be completely recovered <br>
<br>
Here some firmware links.... (I used the last 1.4 version ... )<br>
