If you used an image made for Q5 on a Q7 (even one with a Q7 kernel), then it wrote the Q5 versions of qi and u-boot to the iNAND, so now it looks for SmartQ5 on the SD when you try the upgrade procedure.

I have to say -
ITS A BETA FIRMWARE!!!
if you want to use your machine - use the smart firmware
mer - its for the hardcore...
not me or you
I installed Mer on Q7 just now. The issues:
1. It can be started with AC power. The screen kept being sparkling. Once passed the very initial time point, I can plug it in.
2. I can't make the wireless work by this tutorial : http://www.jiongtang.com/blog/html/s...r-smartq5.html
It says: No network devices available.
3. The big USB doesn't work. It can not recognize USB keyboard or mouse.
4. The device can not be shutdown.
5. That screenshot does not work?
I have several questions:
1. How to calibrate the touch screen. I didn't do right when it was first booted.
2. How to make the usb keyboard work?
3. Where is the up down left right key on the soft keyboard? Because I need it to recall my last command.
4. How can I install more software? After the wireless been solved?

sd8686_sdio: probe of mmc2:0001:1 failed with error -1
I just realized that other devices have arrow keys but there are no such on Smart Q7. Is it possible to map '+' '-' to arrows or add them on top of soft keyboard?

-Did you use the SDUpdateToolV1.1 with the u-boot-7.bin then you build mer?
If you didn't it can explain why i cant flash the machine (wrong key binding)
