Default Question About recovery-windows.bat

Do we need to run that every time we want to get to the recovery screen? It's not a big deal if that's the case, just curious since eventually I will be playing around with a bunch of zip files.

I'd like to know this too. When I went in to flash the Froyo ROM, I couldn't figure out how to get to the custom Recovery without using the BAT script.

The batch script is currently the only way to get the custom recovery, until we find a way to unlock the recovery NAND partition. As it is, recovery unlocks /system for us, allowing us to flash ROMs, but the recovery partition itself is still locked, meaning we can't replace the recovery.

No rush! I'm just happy that all this is happening BEFORE it's out! Love this phone!
