Editing the image

Project root is in the src directory.

A file named recovery-8110.img will be created.

Flashing the image

Acquire ADB root on the device and then run on the PC from the working directory (needs Bash):

make backup
make deploy
adb reboot recovery

To restore, mount the partitions and run:

mv works/backups/recovery.$RANDOMID.img ./recovery-8110.img
adb deploy

Getting to the root shell in the recovery mode

The patched recovery includes Busybox-based root shell. To use it, run adb shell.

Signing the update packages / patches with the image keys

The zips will be packed and signed with the same keys recovery was generated with.
