Samsung tar.md5 files are just standard tar files you should be able to open/extract them using winrar on windows or using a command prompt
Code:
tar xvf <file name>
Obviously you need tar installed and in your PATH for that to work
Hope That Helps!

Glad to hear it, It's been a long time since I used windows in anger so the memory fades a little :laugh:..... I think If you remove the md5 extension winrar will work but no matter!

Hi,
I downloaded a ROM from sammobile.com for my galaxy tab 10.1, and all I want is system.img which is located in a tar.md5 file .
if I extract is with 7zip I get a message "there is no correct record at the end of archive"
and dsixda kitchen don't seem to recognize it .
any ideas please .
thanks.
Well its simple just rename it to .tar and use winrar to extract it. the md5 extension makes odin calculate a hash to check if the firmware you're flashing is not corrupted.
hi,
I did that and I got a message "there is no correct record at the end of archive"
the files are extracted but I think it is corrupted because dsixda kitchen can't read it.
just extract it by 7-Zip and don't care about message
I have this problem too, my 7-zpi say that can´t open file format unknowed or damage.
your download maybe interupted, try download it again and do md5 checksum

You might be opening the wrong file.
You have to download 2 files:
xxxx.tar
xxxx.tar.md5
the first one is the one you have to open.
the second one is the one that only have the MD5 result of the first.

Redownlaod and try to unzip again. Kitchen should open it, make sure u have kitchen scripts for your phone or edit from flashable zip. Afaik

dont use 7zip but use unoversal extractor. it will extract everything.
I have the same issue for 5301. I have to get either the recovery or system img for creating a custom rom. Usually samsung firmware files can be extracted using izarc, 7zip or universal extract tool. some can be opened with ultraISO or similar tool. I tried dsixdas kitchen as well. That does not even acknowledge this ROM. These firmwares come as a single tar file with md5 sum attached. There is something different about this ROM file that wont even let let the regular tools see what is inside the file. I tried to open it with a hex editor and it looks similar what a regular tar.md5 file would look. Looking at the log file from universal extractor:

0.6% (.LZMA) LZMA compressed file (1/1)
7-Zip Tar archive extractions cannot be logged.
If Odin can flash these files using the same boot, recovery and system... images then there must be a way to extract these img files. wonder if odin extracts to a temp location?

Use odinatrix to extrat system.img n modem files..
Its the easiest tool do so...
U may also use splitfus2 bt its way trickier to use than odinatrix.

Your pc shud b superfast so that odintrix can work witout lag.
My HP G6 lapi took around 10 mins to extrqct the one .tar.md5 file..
The tool will automatically extract diffrnt .tar files such as modem_xxx.tar pda_xxx.tar n csc_xxx.tar
Now u can use these to flash through odin witout any prb.
U can use pda.tar in kitchen to get boot.img n system.img.
Kitchen will also help u extract sysmtem foldr from system.img.
U can also flash through odin the single .tar.md5....
Choose that in pda field...
Odin is smart enough to do rest of the part.
Don't be lazy.

Appreciate the quick response. I guess my question was not clear enough. I extracted the recovery and created a clockwork recovery named recovery.img. Now I want to flash this recovery back on the device. I created the tar file using:
tar -H ustar -c recovery.img > CWMrecovery.tar
md5sum -t CWMrecovery.tar >> CWMrecovery.tar
mv CWMrecovery.tar CWMrecovery.tar.md5
When I flash this using odin3_v3.07 md5 is verified but he flash does not go through and stops at NAND write start. Is there a special way to create a odin flashable tar.md5 file foe these turbo firmwares?

an .ftf file is just a zip-file with a different extension, just rename it, right-click on it and change .zip to .ftf
I believe you have not open the option to see the extention of your file. open it in your windows, then you can change it. or, just use mobile phone explorer to do it.

you are not suppose to change the file. zip is zip, not ftf. It is like you changed cloth but you are not becoming to another person.

The built-in Windows Archiver used to zip folders doesn't use the proper format for files that need to be flashed. You should use Winrar or 7-zip if you have unpacked the zip-files.
If you've just downloaded the files without unpacking them, just rename them to .ftf without unpacking. Because your browser recognises the .ftf's as .zip-files it renames them on download-completion, simply renaming them back will solve your issues.

Sometimes you download a zip, you have to extract its files and then, create the ftf file with flashtool, using the option...tools/bundle creation. Try doing that.

yes, just take whats inside the zip and make it into a tar.md5 file and that way you can flash it through odin.
PD: it's better to make it .tar.md5 in a linux machine, don't know why doesn't seem to work on windows.

Ahh, that's because in the \system\etc\terminfo\e\ directory there are two files with the respective names: Eterm and eterm. Linux file names are case-sensitive, Windows file names aren't,so Windows will overwrite one. If you then create a gz file, one of the files is missing.

I have tried this already....
but Odin Pops up a window saying: ".md5 binary is invalid"
tar/tar.gz from zip file
have seen this question a lot.
to create the tar file, you normally have to be in a Unix environment and an app like File-Roller can do the job of compressinf the files you extracted from the original zip file.
Allright, the solution is simple. You don't even need a Linux machine!
First, check your ZIP file. Does it contain a folder only? And are there some files in that folder? Then you have to make a ZIP file, which only contains those files, otherwise Odin cannot flash it. If there are just some files (and folders?) in your ZIP file, you can just leave it as it is.
Then, you have to download this little tool (direct link) and the thread here . Extract it somewhere you like to have it.
Place your ZIP file in the main directory (the folder where Runme.bat is located) and rename it to yourfile.img, then run Runme.bat (as Admin, probably?)
Now you have a TAR file!
Have a nice day,

Assuming you are using Microsoft Windows, you will need four programs to extract files from the .ftf file.
1. An archive file tool like WinRAR or 7-Zip. Use the tool to extract the system.sin file from the .ftf file. You might have to change the .ftf extension to .rar or .zip to cause WinRAR or 7-Zip to open the file.
2. sin2img.exe. Use it to create a system.img file from system.sin file.
3. Ext2 Volume Manager (aka ext2fsd). It is a Windows driver. Running it will allow Windows to access the EXT4 partitions in the system.img file.
4. OSFMount. Use it to mount/unmount the system.img file as a Windows drive.
When you have the system.img file mounted as a Windows drive, you can extract whatever files you want.
