My laptops have ran Linux for as long as I can remember. In the past I have always borrowed my friends computers to SBF and do various other phone 'hacking' things. I would love to be able to rely solely on my Arch Linux machine, but i dont know of a way to SBF using a Linux Computer.

Is it possible to SBF with a computer running Linux?

Thanks so much guys! The community here is amazing!

EDIT - im getting the error "error unpacking ./sbf_flash"

-- Fixed that by intstalling cpio

EDIT AGAIN - Im getting the error "Data[0]: Header corrupt !! failed"

--Wow im not that sharp today... i was trying to SBF a .zip file... forgot to extract. Forgive my ignorance and thank you again.

+1 sbfing is so much easier on Linux. As are most things if you know what your doing
