Yes, haha I know

That is a great idea, the script can easily be added to the application.

Some say it's not possible, some say it's possible? Anyone know for sure?

Installed cannibal last night. It truly was the easiest thing I've ever done to my phone as far as mods and flashing and such.

flash_image on devices with mtd, device specific methods on others (ex. dd to an internal emmc partition) I think that info can be found in the devices.js in koush's rommanagermanifest repo on github

Will be uploading the source in a little bit tvall. I was adding helpful comment lines when my PC crashed.

it in not possible. when you shut down the phone, all apps and tasks are killed. and since the phone is not on and there is no power to it, there is no way to tell it to keep a certain app going.

Now I'm wondering how a car works...... You turn it off and you can turn it on with the click of a button, you can close and open doors, even the trunk.

The same way a car radio works. It has a 12volt keep alive connection.

Re: [APP] Recovery Installation Utility

Source code has been uploaded for those interested, check the OP.

Update will be showing up in a couple hours... added a check to make sure flash_image works with the phone

thanks
GPL issues with people not handing it out notwithstanding, it's always nice to be able to get source code.

Is there a GPL issue if you don't hand out app source code? I was under the impression that GPL only applied to kernels... I could be wrong though... I'm still a noob in many ways.

gpl applies to anything licensed under the gpl. the linux kernel is gpl. most of android is apahe2 licensed.

i din't see a license when i looked at your code so i was going to ask you about that.

i personally prefer a 2-clause bsd license and use it for all my original code (so.. i don't use it often)

Wait so what am I supposed to do to my code? Add something saying I own it and license people to use it to all the code?

Some devices use fastboot commands to flash recoveries and kernels
