hello,
i have two sch-r930 phones. (samsung galaxy s aviators) and through countless forums's and googling i cannot for the life of me find the recovery partitions, among others. even tho i have attempted all possibilities (the ones i found atleast) to find these, i ask others for assistance.

anything needed as far as output's from any commands or binaries can be provided.

help?

exhausted that

Looks like this might do the trick:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cls.partition

or if you prefer to know how manually, then there might be some helpful info on this thread:

already attempted those. actually any app with partition in the title ive downloaded from the playstore and tried.
i have tried to ls -l /dev/block/platform and looked for a by-name in either location to no end. i have chekced the last_log from the cache/partition. i have used onandroid, romgen, romdump, flash_image, dump_image, etc to no end.
i need someone who can help me narrow it down by some other means.
is it possible that its wrapped up in with the kernel?
