Root Stock Recovery B11

We don't have this yet so I thought I would start a thread to see if we can get one

If anyone has a rooted device with stock recovery, here are the steps:

In a terminal/cmd on your computer:

Code (Text):

1. adb shell
2. su
3. dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13 of=/sdcard/b11_stock_recovery.img

OR

In Terminal Emulator on your device:

Code (Text):

1. su
2. dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13 of=/sdcard/b11_stock_recovery.img

When it is finished you will have a 16MB file in the root of your sdcard called b11_stock_recovery.img. Upload it. Post a link. That's it.

This is very easy to do and is not dangerous at all (as long as you follow the instructions).

 

it does something to partition 13 in the recovery script. I have no idea if it's a new version or not. Unfortunately it's a 1.7MB patch, so i can't grab the file from the update.

 

just use the unmodified stock b11 no root and let it replace recovery on reboot after flashing

 

i was not sure if they changed the stock recovery with b11 since i have never seen it. We already have unmodified stock b11 roms that will replace cwm recovery if you let them. That seems like the easiest way to return to full stock.

 

the unmodified stock roms use the stock recovery installer that came with the b11 update so it should work flawlessly

 

It's not that i don't appreciate it but personally i have no use for stock recovery lol. I do the same as you are doing...think of things that may help others and put it together. Occasionally I ask for others to do things that will help others, like grab an img of the stock recovery while they have it available so it can be added to junkies tool in the future. But as you can see, you are the first person to even attempt to assist and for that, I thank you
