Can we save the SBL from live phone for backup?

Re: Jolla C is now a brick
 

A good idea to do so, helpful I believe once its figured out how to extract the needed files.

The partitions of J1 is like this, not sure of C.

Re: Jolla C is now a brick
 

Interresting - so, the C have backups of the critical partitions.

Re: Jolla C is now a brick
 

What are they good for if you delete their table too :eek:

Re: Jolla C is now a brick
 

Teaching people who shouldn't be messing around, the hard way.

Re: Jolla C is now a brick
 

No that's the task of what follows if you mess with them ;)

However - what are the backup partitions good for, can the primary ones get corrupted? Is it used for some ongoing check against?

Re: Jolla C is now a brick
 

It's probably the recovery method since we know it will be different to that on the JPhone due to lack of Btrfs.

That doesn't help you, but as you found out if you aren't super careful when running fdisk as root you can break things :P
