You sir, are a saint!
Here you go http://www.megaupload.com/?d=3DM54Q10
ahh, that rfs isnt unpacked
well does anyone have to skills to unpack it? you can get the actual file from the above post
im pretty sure you need linux to do so, but i might be wrong
*edit* posted tut to unpack it

I came from HTC Hero to the Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000
So I had never problems with cooking something up, but in the Galaxy I faced .rfs files and a flashing tool I can't use on linux...
So I searched through some boards to find a way to extract the .rfs files here a working guide for the S I9000.
What you need
Linux (tested with Debian testing)
It's pretty simple, execute this commands as root on your computer
SHORT WAY (thanks to mimocan)
Code:
# mount -o loop factory.rfs /some_dir
LOOOONG WAY
Attatch the rfs file to the loop device
Code:
# losetup /dev/loop0 /somedir/factoryfs.rfs
Create a directory to mount the device
Code:
# mkdir /somedir/mnt
Mount the device
Code:
# mount /dev/loop0 /somedir/mnt
the content of the rfs is NOT saved on the sdcard! you have to copy it!
Now you can copy the content from the /sdcard/tmp directory to the sdcard
Code:
# cp -R /somedir/mnt /somedir/factoryfs
hope this is helpful for someone

You can unpack rfs by loading it through magiciso on windows
Free trial version will work fine hehe

looks just like ultra ISO, and i have ultra ISO ill check it out
uhhh? adb pull /system? and rar it up? or adb pull /?

Here's a NON-flashable, fully deodexed version of the OTA-JI6 /system directory, yeah, I know its not the full contents of factory.rfs, but its a start.

Sorry man, misunderstood your request. Let me get on my linux box and unpack it.
Ok, unpacked it, transferring back to my home PC, and will upload to megaupload.
Sorry for the goof.

i have successfully unpack around 10 SE x8 system.sin files..

If someone back up system image of rooted 2.1 phone then i flash my phone with this image will i get rooted 2.1

it's not easy as you think. to flash the rom, you need rooted system.sin. .sin files only can be signed by sonyericsson.
take a look at this thread instead. all your idea is in this. lol. btw, this method works

No. that app used to convert .sin from decrypted rom from SEUS to .img..you can extract it using unyaffs. trust me.
Ok convert sin to img.
Why then cant convert img to sin.
Coz SONY sign every sin they do, phone doesnt take unsigned sin files

can anyone help >.<
usage: system.sin System.img
so in cmd
you write sin2img [path to your system.sin file] [path where you wanna to put new created system.img file]
This is freakin' brilliant! Thanks!
Edit: Make a Linux version.
have a try
It works with mono?
Edit: Okay.. So now it's a .img file. How do I crack this open and start playing around with it?
greetings..
thanks to all for trying...
as i recall there is kernel support for yaffs imgs with cloop.. or something..
but hey i'm xp user..
So the file is yaffs?

I only need to convert it to img... i dont need to unpack it... Why there isn't any mirror with that tool ? is there something wrong with it ?
I've become somewhat of a flash-aholic recently and brick my phone quite often. Especially with all the experimentation with dual boots and kernels and such.
Is there a way to convert my backup .img files to .sin/.ftf files so that they may be flashable via flashtool? I've looked all over the internet and XDA, but can't quite get everything together to make this happen. I know that being able to flash data could be troublesome, but I get tired of having to flash stock firmware and then root, then xrecovery to get back to my backups.
And by that time, I've forgotten what I was experimenting with/where I left off and what baseband I was on.
I'm not looking for a walkthrough, but just a finger-point of in the right direction.
Checked out Doomlords posts, SIN2IMG and the such, but that's to go in the opposite direction that I need.
(I highly doubt, but) If anything, a way to flash xrecovery via flashtool without having a working rom.
unyaffs.exe
Gonna play with this in a bit.
I'll report.
Let me know if you've used this.
Still accepting all help offered.
Compile .sin
Also looking how to compile a .sin file.
Google gives me one of three types of info:
sin(sine wave) - trigonometry
.sin - Microsoft game files (Age of Empires, Rise of Nations, etc.)
and of course, sin - Christian morals
Okay....I cannot find a valid link to Jerplea's SIN reconstructor. Only dead links.
Does anyone have a copy of this? Seems like it'll be my only hope.

unyaffs worked great. Just drag and drop then you get your system, data, and cache from the corresponding .img.
Now I'm using the ConvertTool to break down the .sin but cannot figure out how to extract the .tgz that comes out. 7zip says that it cannot open it as an archive.
Wanting to look at the file structure of the .sin.
...Back to work...
Thanks to all that......uh............helped?
Hi andrewddickey,
Appears you have been successful in converting .img to .sin/.ftf
If is it true can you make a post telling how achieve this ?
Thanks in advance.
Yea I'd be interested in knowing how to do this too

hy
unfortunately the ones that can create sin files are se
sin is an signed img file , signed with se certificat and we dont have that certificate
img file is an yaffs2 image
after 2.3 release you will not need sin files

Hi Andrew,
Unfortunately we cannot create proper .sin files from yaffs images - .sin files are signed with SE signature and we still don't know the public/private keys.
The .sin structure is quite simple:
[sin header]
[signature1]
[signature2]
[body of the actual image]
If the rumours about bootloader unlocking are true, soon you will be able to flash backup images via fastboot

How to Convert *.img file to *.sin or *.ftf??

You can download the msm7227.7z . Extract it and the contents are some apps and some folders.
One of them is 'sinTools'. Inside it are some applications, i think, that can help in making .sin files to sign these.
Please try and help me what to write in the command window.
Thanks in advance.
anyone found a solution yet? would be nice to be able to create your own ftf's
guess it's somehow linked with cryptographics so it's only one way, but i'm too tired to check right now.
Some htc devices are having issues with touch working in recovery and recently @Captain_Throwback made a hack for that.Sir can you explain it to me or refer a post by others. Here's my scenario, I'm having nothing but my stock rom and of course a device tree and vendor blobs but No twrp due to this issue and there is no kernel source for my device so can you explain it to me sir.
Have you checked for kernel source here? https://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads

I already posted instructions for you. It's not a process for a novice. It sounds like you don't even know how to unpack a boot.img, so you should start by searching (XDA, Google) for how to do that.

I gave you instructions for patching the kernel already. It's the procedure that I follow. I'm not sure what else you want.

You mean to do this sir Patch the uncompressed kernel binary for touch as indicated below:
Code:
# Replaces string 'recovery' with 'rec0very' so htc_get_bootmode() doesn't know we're in recovery
sed -i -E -e 's/recovery\x00/rec0very\x00/g' <name-of-kernel-file>
You'll then have a patched, uncompressed kernel binary. To compress it, you'll have to find some similar kernel source, and compile it, but replace the "Image" (uncompressed kernel) with your patched one (and make sure it doesn't get overwritten on change), so that you have a kernel binary that's similar in size to the one you started with. Alternatively, you can just leave the kernel uncompressed and repack it back into the image (which will be much larger since the kernel is uncompressed). If it doesn't fit on the partition due to size, you will have to find a way to compress it.

Hi JamFlux,
I tried to unpack a vendor .zip with the utility using the .bat but I got an error anyway.
I think it's best to use scripting commands than .exe binaries when possible, they are easier to spot and analyse. You can use administrative command promt aswell. Which tool do you use to make executables from .bat files? Is it from reputable sources?

In my opinion, I don't think it's a reputable tool, the developer's webpage doesn't work, and uptodown is not exactly a trusted source.
We must be extra careful these days as they put virus everywhere in executables.
That SUR.exe file is detected as infected by several engines, I think you should consider removing it from the tool.
