Na we ain't lol all we got is the one I found

[Guest rickywyatt]

The K800 seems damn near identical apart from the screen, this shows when looking at the strings. I think flashing the bootloader should be okay, but don't hold me to that. In addition, I'm not so sure it's an engineering bootloader as the ROM has been build in release mode and not engineering.

l

yes but this rom is a delta rom

[Guest]

How did paul look at kboot on osd ?

[Guest rickywyatt]

as he lol that's news to me

[Guest]

Oh maybe I am misunderstand lol I thought he said the bootloader was kboot, so I assumed he had seen it in some way.

[Guest rickywyatt]

pauls got he's hand on an engineering bootloader but he said he had no why to flash it well he dose now

[Guest]

He still offline, I pm and tweeted him so hopefully he be about soon.

So wait......if we can flash the engineering bootloader we are well and truly sorted right? lock, stock, clockworkmod.

Lollolololo

[Guest rickywyatt]

one of us is going to have to be brave lol

[Guest shootomanUK]

if i had the reciept for my phone i would flash but i aint :-(

[Guest]

Brave is ok if it not blind brave lol.

So if one of us is brave and flashes what, bootloader or uses the flasher to flash the ics leak ?

What are the odds of recovering from a brick, seeing as we have more recovery tools now I guess ?

Show us your war face, fix bayonettes :lol:

[Guest shootomanUK]

tbh i think it will either flash or not, i.e it will say wrong version/hardware e.t.c

[Guest]

Or it will flash and magically a brick appears.

[Guest kabirsaini2011]

Every one is standing on a mountain and discussing who will jump first

[Guest rickywyatt]

id only flash boot.bin as we can now flash xolo boot.bin

[Guest ben1066]

There is nothing to loose trying to flash the leaked ICS now, we can flash back. This tool MAY ignore the signature though it's hardly certain.

[Guest rickywyatt]

and we can flash the boot.bin with fastboot

[Guest ben1066]

Wait it doesn't check the boot partition? Well, it'd be a pain in the ass to do, but we COULD theoretically boot from what it thinks is the data partition. Or we could boot from a partition on the SD card.

[Guest rickywyatt]

No if your using fastboot exe
