Yeah, you can either zip it or just change the extension to something innocuous like .prc
I had done previous work on a Leaf2 custom recovery, but I never got it working. You may need EDL if you get your device in a jam. |

No, I'm just saying that is the worse case if you get stuck.
If you can buy one easily and cheaply it's not a bad idea. OTOH, if you have plenty of cables and can make one, that's an option too. |

So, here's how to try out a recovery.
Code:
C:\>adb push rec.img sdcard C:\>adb shell $ su # getprop | grep slot _a -- it will say either _a or _b, use that in the next command # dd if=/sdcard/rec.img of=/dev/block/by-name/recovery_a # reboot recovery See if ADB is active, it should be. If not, press the power button for 10 seconds to reset. If ADB is there just type some commands to make sure ls -l or whatever. When you're doing this you should download and run my usblog.exe (in my sig). That way you can watch for USB interfaces popping up and down. 05c6/900e is a kernel crash. After reset make sure that the clock is correct. Last edited by Renate; 07-08-2024 at 04:44 PM. |

You can do it all with EDL.
There may be issues going from Chinese 3.5.3 to US 3.5.1 (which is all that is available). Code:
adb reboot edl edl /lqcm2290.bin edl /g -- see which slot you are on edl /w /precovery_ab rec.img edl /z adb reboot recovery |

Use the same one. Nobody has checked it out yet. I don't anticipate it working.
