Yes, and that exact same procedure should work just as well if you substitute your own *.m0 image built from my leo2moko-r1.tar.xz source in the place of calypso-moko11.m0. I say "should" because I haven't tried it myself - like Richard Stallman, I avoid proprietary software, so I use my own fc-loadtool instead of that fluid.exe for which I have no corresponding source. Just give it a try - if you don't like my illegally-free GSM fw, you can always reflash back to the official calypso-moko11.m0.

The GSM modem has its own processor, its own independent address space, its own address and data buses, and its own independent flash memory (NOR in a Multi-Chip Package combined with SRAM). Neither dfu-util nor the AP (application processor) bootloader it is talking to knows anything about that separate hardware block. In order to reflash the GSM modem, one needs to establish communication with Calypso's own boot ROM. That can be done either from a running Linux system on the phone's AP (i.e., from inside the phone) or externally via a classic "T191 unlock" cable plugged into the headset jack. (The latter approach makes more sense for FreeCalypso developers.) Either way, one needs Linux software running on the phone's AP in order to control the power to the modem and to enable the headset jack serial channel if you wish to use the latter.
