Root [Boost Mobile] Stock Recovery IMG

Ok, obviously you all are not understanding what is being asked for.
I need the STOCK recovery Img.
The one included in the nandroid is not the stock recovery img.
I do not want CWM, I do not want modifications.
I want an IMG file of the stock recovery that came with the phone originally.

Hopefully that clears things up for those not familiar with terminology.
 
I think you have to flash clockwork to get the stock recovery img to show in that folder?

Can someone confirm this?

:)

Or If you give me about an hour I can go home and upload it :)
 
UPDATE:

Found a port it would communicate with. So now need to get stock recovery img so I can get ftm mode back so I can put it all back to stock.

Thats what I had to do last night. I rooted/cwm as soon as I bought the phone home and didnt update to b08 firmware. I'm leaving work in ten mins. I'll upload it as soon as I get home.
 
Have stock recovery back now so I can put it in FTM mode (which is the only mode QPST will communicate with it in)....

But the handset update tool will not communicate with the device even in FTM mode. I must be doing something wrong.

EDIT/UPDATE::

Had to manually update the FCU driver so now all seems to be working.

Again, thank you so much for posting that img file. I know I'm not the only one who was in need of it.

same problem here - how did you get the driver? - i got FTM mode but handset update tool keeps saying the phone needs to be in FTM mode ... help me please...:confused:

EDIT:
I got it now. It's a driver issue for sure (I'm running Win7 64bit) because i connected it to a different laptop (XP Home) and it worked.. Thank you everyone!

Win7x64 doesn't like the drivers it seems. I also have WIn7x64 on my laptop. I had to manually navigate to the ZTE driver folder that the handset update tool created in Program Files and update it that way. Then it worked just fine.

I may root but I'm definitely not putting CWM back on here until a way is developed to also allow FTM mode. QPST will only communicate with my phone in FTM mode. Also, CWM refused to mount my sdcard making it useless for flashing anyway, not that we yet have anything to flash but if we did I wouldn't be able to so stock recovery it is. My phone is back to happy.
