How do I upgrade to a new version of Android? Possible Duplicate:
  How do I update the OS on my device?  




So, I got an ePad AKA zenithink zt 180 (I know, I know it's cheap and I should have got a better piece of hardware, but i was too eager to get a tablet and this one was affordable)

It has 2.1 on it and I want to upgrade to 2.2 (for adobe flash).

The copy of Android looks like they just took the developer edition (i see a dev tools app pre-installed... not sure) and slapped it on there with no customization.

So, can you guys help me with step-by-step instructions on how to upgrade and where to find the latest copy?

I have a developer account already if that helps...

I would appreciate any help as I'm afraid of bricking it. There's no way to automatically update this thing either (that i can find) :-/
You'll need a version that is specifically designed for your device that has all the drivers necessary to operate your specific hardware configuration.  If no one has compiled a ROM for it you'd have to build one yourself from scratch.  You best bet finding a 2.2 ROM for you device is over at the XDA Developers forum.  Then even if you're able to load 2.2, Flash is going to be a whole different story.  I had the Viewsonic g-tablet with Froyo (which as a Tegra2 Processor) but the Flash that I side-loaded wouldn't work at all.  Force close after force close.  Then with my newest tab, the Archos 70, even after they released 2.2 it was a while before anyone could find a version of Flash that would run without force closing and it still operates poorly.  I suspect you're going to be disappointed with your Flash experience, especially if you have cheap hardware.
