Here is under the tape. Not sure if you can remove the card or not. To me that yellow capacitor, resistor looking thing might be in the way. I tried moving it gently ( the SD card ) but it would not budge.

Look like you rin the same boat as me. Ive been trying other hero tab firmware but some works and some do not. I tried one which seemed to work the most but I was unable to get passed setup screen.
If you open the zip file and look under /system/build.prop ( I think is where I saw it ) you should find something like: " run setup = " I've seen the = be 1 or 0 also yes/no and a few other responses. You might try putting a " # " in front of that command causing the system to skip over that. Might resolve your setup problem. Remember to re-save the zip before trying to install.
Don't know if this will help or make things worse.

you have to slide the metal clipforward and it pops up. moves like 1/8of an inch.

Once you remove the thin strip of tape from the ribbon cable, getting to the sdcard is very easy. I retape after changing the card just to ensure a good connection.
What build were you having the most success with? I am not a pro at this but could be a fun project.
Good call on the build.prop file. I will take a closer look at that when I get home this afternoon.

this is the one im using right now. Haipad_M7_322_rootable.ziphttp://leeyuentuen.byethost15.com/blog/?p=1667 soft buttons dont work but wireless and volume control does. and the market also works. and also i played around with the Apad firmware wich also works to an extent.
Before i even started to flash the gingerbread on the OP, I cloned my 4gb to an image using Easus TODO backup. Everything is original before I tried to flash anything. There are about 3 linux partitions and the usable fat 32. I dual boot ubuntu and looked in the linux partitions and there are system files didnt mes around with it though.
Ok bulldogg i used the haipad firmware you posted and flashed it. On mine I got force closed and the setup wizard I could not get passed.
Using daves advice I change setup wizard from OPTIONAL TO DISABLED AND I removed all the apps that were force closing which included (phone, maps, google voice, and other apps not necessary). After I removed all those apps and edited the build.prop with daves advice, My tablet booted straight up with only the core apps which are (gallery, music, browser, settings, market, camera, calendar, calculator, email, and clock).
My tablet is running perfectly. The only thing that does not work is soft keys, and the camera app. When I open the camera its all green. Market, google sign in works perfectly. All other gapps can be downloaded from market. Also the soft keys light stays on after I lock the tablet.
Android Version 2.2

Maybe it will we don't really know. However, I would wait on trying other firmware on your " brick ". I may be wrong but at this point my thinking is the other firmware is irreversible.
