Possible to flash modem.bin from recovery ?

[chareos12]

Hi,
I have only a MAC, with Lion.
Trying to downgrade my SGS2 radio to KD5 (best for H3G italy, accordingly with many italian users), using heimdall command line.

note: I had this working in the past, while rooting the phone 1st time. Done that, I moved to many roms, namely CM7 and MIUI.

Back to today, when I try to flash the radio file I get the
"unable to find a compatible device in download mode".
Phone is plugged in USB, and already in download mode (vol- home power pressed 3 seconds; vol+ to confirm).
No matter what I try.

Being unable to fix the problem, I'm now trying to workaround it.
Question:
is there a way to flash the radio from the working recovery ?


Thanks

There is but you will have to create a compatible zip file for CWM recovery. Alternatively you can find a CWM modem zip file and just swap out the modem to the one you want.
