The updates actually write the entire image when updating - I am using the same sd card in my new T62 so I have the update.zip still on it. Here's the update script:
ui_print("Checking Update Package Matching"); package_extract_file("android-info.txt", "/tmp/android-info.txt"); assert(file_getprop("/tmp/android-info.txt", "board") == getprop("ro.product.board")); ui_print("Done Package Matching\n"); package_extract_file("u-boot-no-padding.bin", "/tmp/u-boot-no-padding.bin"); ui_print("Writing Bootloader..."); simple_dd("/tmp/u-boot-no-padding.bin", "/dev/block/mmcblk0", 1024); delete("/tmp/u-boot-no-padding.bin"); package_extract_file("logo.bmp", "/tmp/logo.bmp"); ui_print("Writing Logo..."); simple_dd("/tmp/logo.bmp", "/dev/block/mmcblk0", 3145728); show_progress(0.1, 2); package_extract_file("boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img"); ui_print("Writing boot image."); simple_dd("/tmp/boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p1", 0); show_progress(0.2, 10); ui_print("Extracting system image...\n"); mount("vfat", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p4", "/tmp/flash"); package_extract_file("system.img", "/tmp/flash/system.img"); ui_print("Writing system partition...\n"); simple_dd("/tmp/flash/system.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p5", 0); delete("/tmp/flash/system.img"); unmount("/tmp/flash"); #ui_print("Formating data partition"); #format("ext4","EMMC","/dev/block/mmcblk0p7");

Heh any returns I make would be a hassle, since I'd be using it in Venezuela, though amazon is very good with returns. That is the only thing making me hesitant to purchase this device or that Boyue t62 one running android.
If the update actually deletes everything, and it seems to rewrite everything from what I read from the script (bootloader, system partition) then the problem is probably hardware related (In my uninformed and hopefully wrong opinion).
