Maybe using AndRoot; I did not used it but you can give it a try.
after # shows in the shell window, what is the next step? type this "cat /data/recovery.img >/dev/block/mmcblk0p7" , or?
I'm a beginner, maybe I ask some stupit questions
Thanks
it depends: if your recovery.img is already in /data/ the answer is yes.
keep in mind that the cat command doesn't show anything if it works correctly.
before fanything you will need to enable the tegra drives do the following so your folio is recognised as and adb interface:
you dont need this if your folio is allredy recognised has a adb interface in device manager.
1) Install the Adb driver.
For driver :
- Download the android SDK
- Edit "<your-android-sdk-folder>/usb_driver/android_winusb.inf"
- Add the following after [Google.NTx86] (or [Google.NTamd64] if 64 bits windows)
Code:
;NVIDIA Tegra
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0955&PID_7000
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0955&PID_7100&MI_01
Maybe you can try via fastboot mode:
1. power on your folio
2. wait until the toshiba logo come out
3. then press three times the power on button and then volume up (+)
4. your folio will show a message saying is in fastboot mode
5. your pc should ask you for drivers
6. go to android-sdk folder an then in tools folder
7. from a command window type: "fastboot devices"
8. if you see something like "???????" displayed you're ready to flash
9. then issue: "fastboot erase recovery" and "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
10. DONE! type "fastboot reboot" and enjoy.
There are a lot of problems doing this procedure under windows (driver issues).
If it doesn't work for you, try to switch to mac or to linux (also a live cd is good).
You can get fastboot commands from this post.
Download the fastboot command for your os and try.
For those os no drivers are needed to use fastboot and it always works fine.
Good luck

2 now for the flashing
make sure you have the following
- adb on your computer
- recovery image(recovery.img found inside update.zip from folio mod
- folio must be rooted(use superoneclick1.6.5 or over)
- and last the app (root explorer)
lets start
step 1. instal root explorer on your folio
step 2. copy the recovery image from foliomod in your computer to a memory card
step 3.with your memory card inserted in your folio using root explorer copy the recovery.img to this directory like this /data/recovery.img note:if found another data folder inside past the recovery.img there aswell
step4. exit root explorer now in your computer type this in comand prom (cmd)
"adb shell" without quotes it should say demon started sucessefuly.and a $ sign should be there
now type this "cat /data/recovery.img >/dev/block/mmcblk0p7" without quotes
if nothing happens it means it worket
now for the flashing do not factorise do it after instaling the mod your trying to install.
alternative way:If you get the permission denied error, type in: "su -" and on your tablet superuser should come up with a permission request. Allow this and you are really "root" as the # shows in the shell window.

I have the following problem,
My pc has installed drivers allready. I try to manually point him to my edited driver.
I get an error:
The specified directory does not contain a compatible driver for your device.
Check if the driver works with Windows for x64-based
computers if the folder contains a driver.
Does anybody have an answer to this?
Thansk in advance.
if you did not use my methord u can always share how you did yours
