Flashing on Cygwin now works just fine.
Just install the default base Cygwin category plus unzip and then run
the ./shallow_flash.sh latest in a Cycgwin terminal
(you'll need adb and fastboot as per the instructions on MDN)

Marek,
Many thanks for your information!
Actually, it seems I need admin rights to do whatever it takes to update my
Flame to 2.1 using the only available Linux machine at my work place. I

I'm afraid there are things I don't understand how to do such as:

Gabriela,
you certainly can try adding android.rules for your Flame to your ubuntu
machine. Yes, you may need sudo access to edit the file. Can you find out
who can give you the administration rights?
Once you obtain them, follow this

Hi,I used the latest ubuntu,and no udev rules were necessary to update -
could also be the case of your current distro version...

Hi Tony and Marek
Very sorry for my delay!!!
Tony,
I have an Ubuntu/linux machine at the palce I work. I've installed adb but
now, according to the TCP channel people trying to help me, I need to
create a file for the udev rules and then enter 2 lines in it. I need
administrator rights to do this
Hi Gabriela,
Agree with Marek. Do you have a linux distro machine that is running ADB, that
you can just transfer the files and flash from ?

I discourage you to try it on Windows+Cygwin, it failed me always.
In it's stead, use yoru USB stick, install some linux live distribution on it,
boot and do whats needed...

Hi all,
Could any one of you help me flash 2.1 to my Flame device using Windows
please? If so, I would greatly appreciate it!!!
I already have the Windows drivers, the Nightly build and the Gaia zip but
I need the appropriate command to flash them using Windows and I would need

well, yes. I'm on Windows with Cygwin and flashing v123 image works perfectly.
However, my next attemt to flash nightly fails again and I no not know why.
Perhaps someone with deeper understanding will, after look to the logcat
outputs, tell me.
In the meanwhile, I'll try to laborate with the fl
I believe I've had the same issue as you.
I needed to flash the base image and then it worked.
Are you ever in a good state?
Or only after you try flashing?
It seems that after flashing the base image (v123) you are back to a
good state, however, I don't want to assume so.
NOTE: I don't know much

Just FYI, in WebIDE, there are buttons to root the phone when it's possible.
In Runtime > Runtime Info.
We use run ADB for the user, and run scripts to root ADB server side.
