Check for existing files when Pixel firmware is selected #243

Closed V0latyle closed 3 weeks ago

Instead of needing to re-process the file every time you select firmware for a particular device, have Pixel Flasher check to see if the firmware has already been processed to save time.

PF does appear to check for a previous patched boot image.

It already does that, for day one. You process a firmware only once, which extracts the necessary boot / init_boot / vbmeta ... And you also patch only once (as long was you don't want to patch differently) there is no need to create a patch again. In fact if you load the same firmware from a different path, it even recognizes that and finds the matching processed files. All this assuming that you don't delete the processed files.
