To read the partitions (in order to back them up) you shouldn't need root access, regular adb access should be enough. Run 'adb shell mount' to see which partitions are available and where they're mounted. You should backup 'system' at the very least if you want to experiment. You might also want to check for /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name or something similar under /dev to see if you have functional names for all the phone's partitions if you want to back all of them up. Once you found the partitions you're interested in just us 'dd' to copy them to an external sd-card. You will need to use fastboot to flash them back later so check if you can enter fastboot on your device (by some power-on key combination). > By the way, after several months now, Alcatel/TCL still doesn't offer source > files for the device, though they are in my understanding legally required to! > see http://sourceforge.net/projects/alcatel/files/ > > What is your opinion on this at mozilla? IIRC until now Alcatel has always provided their sources. Not sure how timely they were with that though. Gabriele
