I've got a working recovery installed on my device (cwm) and I was going to try an alternate version for various reasons. I no longer have the original file for the current version. Is there a way to pull the recovery img. straight from my device and save it one my hdd?
Did dd'ing it work for ya, of course ya gotta know what partition your recovery is on- can get that from your recovery log, probably in /cache/recovery.
If log says something like this-
0 /tmp ramdisk (null) (null)
1 /recovery emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p22 (null)
2 /boot emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p21 (null)
You see recovery is on mmcmblk0p22
So dd that, in terminal emulator-
su ( press enter)
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22 of=/data/local/recovery.img (enter)
I like to dd to /data somewhere, n then copy to where it's wanted.
I was recommended to an app called Rashr, it works well on my device for saving recovery
Good day brother
