Great job! now wait for SPRecovery and we will be free for 2.01mod

1.Download the file there and rename iit to update.zip
2.Put it on to your sd-card
3.shutdown the phone
4.press the camera button and the power button and hold bothe pressed until the warn sigb appears /!\
5.when the sign is there press the camera button and the volume + trigger at the same time (maybe you will need sometime to try it because it has to be rly at the same time)
6.when you have pressed those the recovery menu will appear, just apply the update.zip there

Maybe the will be an error, dont worry its normal, to make sure that its rooted you can just apply the update again

This is not the 2.0.1 update, its just a root patch.

Hi P
I was not following (catching) up at all on Droid scene, which latest version was the recovery image on? 2.01 or 2.1? thanks.

[dst6se]

It should , but the problem is that if i try to extract and repack the recovery image the same way as you do on the droid/hero recovery.img the milestone does not want to boot into recovery , the bootloader cames up instead.
I have tried with the milestone orginal recovery just repack and compress it again with same result !!

Hi,

I just rooted my milestone. I tried to install 2.1 launcher by using adb emulator. Now my phone doesn't start up ("android" flash screen is hanging). I bricked my phone
I also tried to reset it but the setup wizard forced close. I can't get into home screen.

Anyone please help!!!!

andrea tested the droid-recovery, but the mtdblocks are not the same as on the droid.
-> a new recovery image must be created.

Also the mtdblock's between South American and European milestones are different.
The difference is that they insert a "logo" mtdblock in mtd2 and pushed the rest down.
