I managed to get it to work but was happy that I had a restore image since my first attempts either didn't work or bricked my Glo.
Ihavent yet figured out how to replicate the structire , when viewing the zip contents inzarchiver it shows the root folder being the relative path period, which doesnt show up me when i rezip the contents. im not sure if this is a zarchiver thing or if its actually there. besides ive already been thrpugh the trouble of pryingthe back open, iwant to keep waiting until i can be bothered to reopen it beforeiexperiment.

how did you overwrite the factoryrestore partition? utook the sd card out correct? not using the zip file
