Root ClockWorkMod

The bat file there will fail in at least 1 place, and not bother to check the return value. It does this:
Code: 
Files\adb shell "ln -s /data /data/gpscfg/gps_env.conf"

However, the phone does not like this:
Code: 
$ stat /data/gpscfg
stat: can't stat '/data/gpscfg': No such file or directory
$ ln -s /data /data/gpscfg/gps_env.conf
link failed No such file or directory

Yea, we don't have that directory or .conf file.

We have:
/etc/gps.conf -> /system/etc/gps.conf

That's about all I can find.

We also don't have either of these files
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh
/system/recovery-from-boot.p

I'm not sure what's currently on this block, but not stock recovery:
/dev/block/mmcblk0p17

I'm certainly not an expert, but this script doesn't make much sense to me.

salvy512,

Are you interested in dd-ing this new CWM build to your phone? LOL.

EDIT: Nevermind.. I dd'd it to the recovery partition (mmcblk0p14) and it doesn't work. It will not boot into recovery. I put stock recovery back.

:-(

How many builds have we tried now?

No it errored out

Tried commands in terminal just to see what would happen. Got stuck in a boot loop but luckily go out of it
 
Bob,

I'm pretty sure our bootloader is locked. As far as I know no one has been able to get into it. When your installers attempts to boot into bootloader it justs reboots into Android.

Hopefully, I don't stike out: installrecovery.zip
Again 1) unzip on PC, 2) plug phone into PC, and 3) run install.bat

adb reboot bootloader (unfortunately, this command does not work on this phone, it just reboots the device normally)
fastboot.exe devices (fastboot doesn't work either)
fastboot.exe flash recovery BobZhome_recovery.img
fastboot.exe reboot
