Hi,
I have a GT-I9300 I can use to test.

However, I understand from your mail from august 9 that you know no way to backup restore AND boot partition.

If I understood well, does someone else know how to backup all partitions?

If I did not understand you well or if I missed something, how could we do this? I can use my phone to test and write some doc for the wiki.

Regards,

- Fil.
