Huh? Which you could do before with boot.img?
No, boot.img didn't work, but recovery is about 32MB and I can open it with 7zip.

A quick check with imgutil /v or /l should print out nice stuff.
Recovery has a ramdisk so /l should print a lot. (Don't bother pasting.)

I put up a new version (at the same old link). You can see that it's the new one because it's 114,688 bytes. The command flags have changed a bit.
Code:
edl.exe /?
--- help info for the command line ---
edl.exe /u /g
--- print GPT table ---
edl.exe /u /precovery_a rec.img /t
--- get recovery and truncate it to minimal size ~20Megs ---
edl.exe /u /precovery_a rec.img
--- get recovery and leave it at 100Megs ---
edl.exe /u /p7 rec.img
--- you can go by partition numbers too ---
[/QUOTE]

I did downloaded the new version.

I think I'm going to revisit this again once firmware 3.2.1 comes out to see if they changed the boot.img. If they don't and its the same form the previous one I can use the old prepatched boot.img after updating OTA.

Thanks for all the help here! Awesome support and greatly appreciated
