How to extract .ftf file??

Any one know how? or how to add and remove a file in the .ftf in flashtools?
1.Unpack .ftf file(as .zip or .rar) to get the file : system.sin
2.Use SIN2IMG.exe to transfer system.sin into system.img
3.Use unyaffs.exe to upack the system.img into resources you need
You can download SIN2IMG & unyaffs from the Internet
It's not an easy thing to add resources into .ftf file
Actually,Linux enviornment is required to pack the resources into .img file
But you may use Cygwin(HTC [email protected]) to help you do such things.

Thanks, now how do I repack it to .ftf ?
i need the same help
Unless you are modifying the baseband or kernel, it may be easier to make an xrecovery zip from system.img once you unpack and modify it however you want to.
Seems all 2.3.3 SE roms are on the same kernel/BB so if you're on the right ones already all you'll need is an xrec zip to build the rest. If you are on an older/different kernel/BB then Doomlord has an ftf package with just those 2 things & detailed instructions on how to get it going.

how were you able to unpack the .img file
I am able to extract the system.sin
then create a system.img with sin2img.exe, but when I try to unpack the .img file, unyaffs.exe only gives me stackfiles and not a new directory.
can you help with this, am I doing something wrong ?

Thanks for the links i already got guides to make my own rom.Am using dsixda' android kitchen and as the per the instruction given.For xperia x10
"First reinstall a Android 2.1.
Then root it.
Install a XRecovery.
Then backup it.
Now you will get system.img in backup folder."
My doubt is wether this backup should be dont with the stock rom itself or can i use an existing custom rom?And if it should be from stock rom then is it enough use the system.img file obtain by extracting ftf and then using sin2img?

How to Flash a ROM with boot.img and System folder only?

HI! Is there any way to flash a custom rom using PC?
SP FLash tool needs a scatter file
but my ROM doesnt have any.
I tried to make my own scatter file but I cant find the system.img
The system.img is a folder
how can i convert the system folder to system.img?
PLS HELP
Ive done this but it was year's ago while making an odin flashable firmware for sgh-t599. Sorry to say I can't remember the procedure but I used guides so the info is out there.
You'll need Linux, and you must know the size of system partition and if it need to be raw img format or sparse img format.
With the right commands these img's can also be extracted straight from a working device.
