ZTE Z998 [msm8960]





While I'm working on porting my TouchNav Recovery System to the ZTE Z998

I thought everyone might enjoy Philz Touch Recovery for the device.



Personally I hate non-touch recovery builds,

and the standard cwm builds are quickly becoming obsolete and utterly undesirable.






either flash it or boot it from bootloader


PHP:
to flash, assuming recovery.img is on sdcard

dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery

PHP:
to boot from bootloader, assuming recovery.img is in the directory your terminal is opened from, and assuming you have an actual working fastboot in your root /bin directory of your linux box

sudo fastboot boot recovery.img
