1- here: https://github.com/Biktorgj/quectel_eg25_recovery#flashing-with-fastboot the host is the pinephone? 2- if 1 is the pinephone and not a desktop distro how do you get fastboot working in postmarketos? 3- if 1 is a desktop distribution how does the AT command work at all? https://github.com/Biktorgj/quectel_eg25_recovery/blob/EG25GGBR07A08M2G_30.006.30.006/flashstock#L3 4- if 1 is a desktop and the AT command needs to be run on the pinephone we could update the documentation to reflect it in 2 steps.

I think my english as second language is not allowing me put the entire picture together.

@sbe-arg the host is the Pinephone, that is the device where the modem is attached to

look how much easy it was for me

1) the modem had a SIM and was connected to the carrier in a fully working state 2) I downloaded the repository as a ZIP file 3) I unzipped it 4) I entered the folder 5) I ran the ./flashstock command 6) the modem disappeared for some seconds and came back again fully working with the new firmware

that's all

@sbe-arg I did it on Manjaro and I had installed a package called android-tools which contains fastboot, search for something similar in your repositories

[sbe-arg]

I'm gonna try a different distro. Thanks for the comments @mouffa In postmarketos installed android-tools but I get fastboot command uknown, adb works wich is odd.

@sbe-arg here it says it's in /usr/bin

https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/contents?file=&path=&name=android-tools&branch=v3.16&repo=community&arch=aarch64

you can try reinstalling android-tools

Did some cleanup and reinstalled android-tools and worked.

Interesting. And thanks for the heads up explanation above!
