recovery are mainly to flash roms meaning operating system, and kernals... not many devs out there... fact i havent seen a single one who will mod the radio... so when this radios come out... they usually come on for the usual stock running users... but than if devs out there notice there is a radio upgrade they will pull that out of the OTA and help us all with it.. chances are it isnt modified so all moto signatures are still there.. in other words its safe to flash on fastboot... my understanding is once you unlock bootloader it stays unlocked no matter what... i mean you can even take OTA updates (not recommended) but you could, since you can flash root back into it.
I couldn't have said it better. He is right, even uprooted, and locked should be able to flash via fastboot. I didn't touch the file. I just pulled it from the update. Also, I haven't seen a flashable of the new update. Is that something some of you would be interested in? I could do some deflating by request. I will not do deodex. Personally, I do not like deodexing. Let me know guys.
