I had a quick look at the bootloader from a dumped Tracfone C139 firmware. Its nearly the same the Osmocom loader supports, however this special bootloader checks a flag in flash memory to decide wether to allow RAM download or not. If it is disabled, only the FTMTOOL check is done and no RAM download at the boot stage is possible. Best regards, Dieter -- Dieter Spaar, Germany spaar at mirider.augusta.de
