Your tablet may be stuck in flash or recovery mode.

One of our users discovered the other day that if you let the battery completely drain to 0%, the tablet will reset and you can return to flash mode and flash the ROM.

First, try to flash an earlier version of the firmware...then you can reattempt to flash this newer version and see what might have caused the problem. Double check the instructions and make sure you didn't miss something. Try a different USB cable or port...a bad USB connection is often the cause of flash failure.

Maybe you are right,today (after 2 days) I tried again to flash the stock firmware 1.1.2, a when i tried to swith on by pressing Volume- and Power the sp flasher for some second was connected but report me an error about something wrong or missing.
When I try to flash the stock rom 1.1.2 what I need to select on SP Flasher, Download only, firmware upgrade or format all+download?

Now I don't get an "unknow device with" but a "DA USB VCOM Port", anyway the SP Flash Tool don't start, only one time is started but after 4-5 seconds give me and error for something was different and ask me 3 question about the rom I need to flash, if I get again this error message will put here, maybe someone can help me.

See if you can flash the 1.4 ROM. Some others are reporting problems with the 1.5...but it flashed OK on my tablet. http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.p...S-RileyROM-1-4

Thanks very very much to rrileypm, I solved my brick with your advice, I wait until the battery is empty, then :
start SP flash tool
pushed download button
Connect the tablet
Then after 1-2 minutes I can hear a windows ding for usb port, checked the sp flash tool and can see the program is working.

Now I'm happy and on last 2.0.1 firmware.
