Hi guys, im new to smartphone, how can i convert files from .rar to .apk?
if this question has been asked before just send me the link, i did tried to search and i did not find similar request.
Thanks
A "rar" file is a compressed archive, like a ZIP file.
www.rarlabs.com to download the program.
I open it with winrar and i cannot find any .apk file on it, i only see some meta-inf folder and .dex .xml and .arsc file.
any advice from experts?
thanks
See the tutorials link in my sig.
i do it this way !! u can either do it thru any file managers thru ur phone ( which is always better) or thru ur system.
just change the .rar /.zip to .apk
eg:- angrybirds.rar to angrybirds.apk !! simple!!

sorry super senior...
i was try but.. it never work..
i use convert tool..
i have read previous comment..
* 1 - Download Converttool
* 2 - For simplicity, extract it to your C: Folder
* 3 - Go to C:\Program Files\Sony Ericsson\Update Service\db\13740270(this number may be different)\blob_fs and sort the files in size order. (this is presuming you have already got SEUS installed [on your c drive] and have already used it to flash your phone with the firmware you are wanting to decrypt).
* 4 - Copy the three largest files (one is around 145MB, one is around 15MB and one is 57kb) and paste them directly into the Converttool folder that you extracted earlier.
* 5 - You should now have three files in your Converttool folder in the format "FILE_XXXXXXXXX" (mine are called FILE_277668258, FILE_277660897 and FILE_277196791)
* 6 - Open up the 'Run...' command in windows and type the following :
C:\ConvertTool\SeusDecrypt.bat FILE_XXXXXXXXX (replace FILE_XXXXXXXXX with the name of your largest FILE - mine is FILE_277668258 so I would type C:\ConvertTool\SeusDecrypt.bat FILE_277668258)
* 7 - Press Enter, wait a moment and you should have a compressed folder with the same name as you have just entered but with the extension ".tgz" within the Converttool folder.
* 8 - Repeat step 6 then 7 but replace the text FILE_XXXXXXXXX to the name of your second largest FILE.
* 9 - Repeat step 6 then 7 but replace the text FILE_XXXXXXXXX to the name of your smallest FILE(this bit is optional really)
* 10 - Now extract the largest ".tgz" file USING 7-Zip BECAUSE WINRAR WILL REPORT THE ARCHIVE AS CORRUPT!!!!! then you will get another compressed folder, this time in the format ".tar"
* 11 - Extract the second largest ".tgz" file USING 7-Zip BECAUSE WINRAR WILL REPORT THE ARCHIVE AS CORRUPT!!!!!
* 12 - Extract the smallest ".tgz" file USING 7-Zip BECAUSE WINRAR WILL REPORT THE ARCHIVE AS CORRUPT!!!!!
* 13 - Extract the largest ".tar" file (this time you can use winrar if you want ;-p)
* 14 - Extract the second largest ".tar" file (this time you can use winrar if you want ;-p)
* 15 - RENAME the smallest ".tar" file as "loader.sin"
* 16 - THATS IT! you should now have extracted all the files you need. The steps with the smallest file are optional because Bin4ry has included the "loader.sin" files with flashtool anyway. Very last thing, before using the files with flashtool they will all need renaming eg. from "kernel_S1-SW-LIVE-AC12-0001-S1-PARTITION.sin" to just "kernel.sin" etc.
im stuck at step no 6..
please guide me...
this db my file
I do not think this procedure has been updated to reflect latest SEUS and PC Companion. They do not leave the larger files in the db\13740270\blob_fs folder. The largest I have is 10kb after the SEUS repair.

Ok, what are the names of your 3 files?
Edit: I have downloaded your files, they are named as follows:
FILE_277441866, FILE_277410324 and FILE_277196791.
so you need to open the "Run..." command and type into it :- C:\ConvertTool\SeusDecrypt.bat FILE_277441866
then repeat for the two other files.(eg. C:\ConvertTool\SeusDecrypt.bat FILE_277410324 and then C:\ConvertTool\SeusDecrypt.bat FILE_277196791)
thanks for reply...
i wanna let you know...
when i run C:\ConvertTool\SeusDecrypt.bat FILE_277441866
nothing happened... it just blinking cmd command in second...
then it fade away..
you have any idea about that...

Hello,
someone knows if it possible (and how) extract Wallpapers from the firmware downloaded with NaviFirm?
Thanks
I haven't explored the sync features in Zune yet - are you sure you can't get them through that??
Otherwise, .esco files can be opened like a normal zip. Look for the big .esco firmware file (around ~370MB) and extract the .img file from it. If you can read the contents of the .img file, I reckon you could get them...
THanks Tj,
no works...I found the big .esco, extracted the boot.img...and that file is "empty"...no Winzip no winrar no Dtools can how what's inside it...I wanna extract a carrier's wallpaper... :/

Hi
am new here in this site , and I couldn't find the suitable forum to add this thread
I was in need to add a new locale to an FTF file (flashtool files for sony), I got how to unpack the FTF and unpack the .sin files inside , I was guided that the "system.sin/framework/framework-res.apk" was the file that holds the languages entries in the "settings>languages & input>language" in 4.0(ICS) , so I had the "framework-res.apk" file that holds more languages and replaced it with the original one that holds less languages , now I need to repack the system.sin file , the question is how ?
Same Problem, but KK
Hello,
I have quite the same problem.
I have extracted the folders from system.sin file (to remove some .apk) but I don't know how to repack it to make a new system.sin file to make a .ftf file to flash with Flashtool.
Can someone help ?
I have downloaded a stock rom as a .md5 file and I want to edit the rom so I need to extract it somehow...
Does anyone know how I can realise this???
