Hi I edit your post to remove your personal info.

But as far as the phone goes, a custom recovery is device specific that is why it wouldn't work when you try to flash one from nexus. Do you know if your device has a locked bootloader?

Thanks you!
This device has bootloader as Xt720, and i think it has not locked... i'm not sure

[dlamber7]

Can you run these commands separately for us and post the results in a .txt file?

adb shell
cat /proc/partitons
cat /proc/mounts
cat /proc/mtd
cat /proc/emmc

This will help with the dev tree.

Also, if the bootloader is unlocked, @j_r0dd could possibly help create a recovery, if we ask him nicely

[hong_anh_gau]

I've finished typing the command and this is the result

[dlamber7]

I've called in some help, just time to be patient. Looks good tho so far. First step is custom recovery, then rom. Will take time, but hopefully we can help.

I need a recovery.img & a boot.img from an ota or firmware. What version of android is on it now?

I used "Rootexplore " to find in the rom, but did not find any file named "recovery.img, boot.img". however, I have some information on the system of Im-A650S

IM-A650S running android version 2.2.1

Thank you for helping me! please say to me when you need this device (SKY IM-A650S)

[dlamber7]

Run this command

adb pull boot.img > c:\pantech\boot

You may need to create that directory of you don't have it already, not too familiar with adb and windows.

No that won't work. I will upload the dump_image binary.

Edit:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3174573/dump_image
Move it /system/bin. then 'chmod 755 /system/bin/dump_image' or use Root Explorer and make sure it looks like the picture below. Next type on the phone from a root shell or adb shell as root: 'dump_image boot boot.img' we also want the recovery as well so 'dump_image recovery recovery.img'. Hopefully you didn't already flash over the stock recovery because I really need it! That's why I was asking if there was an ota available or a firmware somewhere.

[hong_anh_gau]

I have done as j_r0dd guide, on a brand new device.
Outline:
"error opening boot.img# jump_image boot boot.img
error opening recovery.img# jum_image recovery recovery.img"

"error opening boot.img# jump_image boot boot.img
error opening recovery.img# jum_image recovery recovery.img"

try this instead 'dump_image boot /sdcard/boot.img' && 'dump_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img'

if that doesn't work we can use dd also.

dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd0 of=/sdcard/boot.img bs=4096
dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd2 of=/sdcard/recovery.img bs=4096

[hong_anh_gau]

I have successfully copied "boot.img & recovery.img" to sdcard. It is taken from the brand new device's firmware (android 2.2.1)
Thank you so much! Please say to me if you need something about A650S. I hope to have SKY custom rom soon

[hong_anh_gau]

Hei!

[j_r0dd]

is that a button at the bottom of the phone under where it says "sky"? what function does it replicate? home? i am working on the recovery, but need more info! i also need the output of 'cat /proc/filesystems'

and please test this http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3174573/recovery.img
