Flash at your own risk. I am in no way responsible for any damage done to your device. This will wipe your entire device except the EXTERNAL sdcard.
If you are using Windows make sure you have installed the APX drivers before continuing.
Nvflash Windows Drivers
md5sum: 9aa3a4814ca63366329d85a22ed01f64
To boot into APX mode
1. Power off
2. Hold down the Vol - and the Vol +
3. While holding the Volume keys down, Power on
4. The display should go black, and both LED's on either side of the home button should light up. This is APX mode. If using Windows make sure the drivers are installed
Instructions
Windows
1. Extract the K1_Stock_120109_nvflash_R2.zip contents to a directory
2. Double click the "flash-windows.bat" file
Linux
1. Extract the K1_Stock_120109_nvflash_R2.zip contents to a directory
2. Open a terminal and cd into the extracted directory
3. Copy and paste the following command
4. Run either
or from a root prompt
CWM Controls
Power = Back (Any submenu), Toggle Display (Main Menu),
Vol+ = Highlight Up
Vol- = Highlight Down
Home = Select
To boot into recovery
You can now use the built in app or widget to reboot to recovery
**Superuser may crash during the first couple of reboots to recovery. Dont worry
Or run 'k1recovery' from the terminal or adb
Notes
If you try to flash any of the OTA update.zip's, it will probably work, but you will be shut out of CWM and will not be able to get back in unless you reflash everything via nvflash
