pre cwm flashing think tank

---

so while the cwm issue is being resolved, let's try to figure out a way to flash custom roms without it.

one thing i noticed today was that if you do a factory reset, it recovers system from an obvious recovery image.

could this image be decompiled, modified and recompiled with the same file name, then flashed with the wipe data in settings? upside would be quicker access to custom roms for the A2, downside is if it doesn't work as planned, you really have no way to recover.

any other ideas?

that recovery image is probably locked/read-only NAND

I know on the X10 flashtool was used in some instances, would that be a possibility?

Not the actual flashtool, but a similar tool could flash the nand recovery image

I know when it came time to upgrade my X10 to GB, I used flashtool to flash the kernel and baseband, then xRec to flash the actual rom. But I know flashtool can flash the rom too because I accidentally flashed it the first time tried. whoops.
