Hi,
I was playing around with my chinese "monster" phone, and would like to have TWRP/NANDROID/Clockwork Recovery on it.
Following is what I already know:

I have no idea why this is, or what the first 8 bytes are (I'm guessing checksum of maybe even the "Chinese (UTF-16? for RECOVERY).
!!! --> I had to get the recovery with "dd" since it is part of the "rom" (mmcblk0).
Anyone any ideas? Even adapting this image is ok for me, I just want to be able to backup/restore...
Thank you for your effort,
