ecastor, In recovery mode the player will not accept a dump as there are 10-12 files missing. It is not possible to extract a full firmware forrecovery but it is possible to merge a full version and a dump to turn a dump into a full version using s1fwx.

To create a merge.bat copy the red text to note pad and save as a text file then renam Merge.bat.

@echo off
::make script from full.bin to recompile from
s1fwx s full.bin > merge.script
::extract files from the full.bin
s1fwx x full.bin
::extract files from dump.bin overwriting files extracted from full.bin
s1fwx x dump.bin
::rebuild full firmware with files from dump.bin included
s1fwx a merged.bin:afi < merge.script
::delete surplus files
for %%t in (dump full merged) do ren %%t.bin *.bak
for %%t in (script ap fw bin bi$) do del *.%%t
ren *.bak *.bin


Place it in the s1fwx folder. You need a full version firmware named full.bin and your repaired dump named dump.bin. Then just run the merge bat and the files within the dump will be copied to the full version and any files the same will be overwritten. The result will be called merged.bin.

It does not always work but you have about a 50/50 chance. If you have no luck try a different full version for the merge.
