[Q] Pack custom system.img.ext4 on KDZ - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys.
Is there a possible way to pack a system.img.ext4 into a .KDZ file to flash normally with KDZ Updater? or transfer to phone after install the stock rom?
I saw some tutorials to how flash the custom system.img.ext4 but never works for me.

Stock Roms .nb

There are Custom rom's RainbowMod, Lumiatrix etc which are .nb files that can easily be flashed via Nokia Lumia 710 downloader —— One key tool for flashing custom ROM
is there no stock roms that are .nb that could be flashed like that easily as I need to take me phone to a Care Centre and need to go back to stock rom?
You can download any official esco firmware, open *_boot.esco fipe as zip archive, extract boot.img, rename boot.img as blahblahblah.nb ad flash it via nss pro/lumia downloader etc.

Help Unrooting S3 on Mac? No ABOOT in Heimdall!

Hello,
I want to return my Samsung S3 to unrooted stock firmware, I have just reset my flash counter but I am having a few issues following this tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2343338
I have acquired the stock firmware, and booted my phone into download mode, Heindall can connect to the phone and I saved my .pits file successfully to the Desktop of my Mac.
However, wafter extracting the .md5 file the tutorial starts by loading the 'ABOOT" file in Heimdall and I don't have an ABOOT file. After extracting the stock firmware I have these files:
boot.img
cache.img
hidden.img
modem.bin
recovery.img
sboot.bin
system.img
tz.img
Can someone advise me ion how to procees flashing the custom firmware? I downloaded the latest UK stock firmware which is unbranded (as is my phone) and matched up the baseband etc so I know it's the correct version. I just want to unroot/re-lock the bootloader etc.
Thanks

Sboot.bin is the file you are looking for. Aboot is only for Snapdragon phones, yours is Exynos.

[Q] [QUESTION] How to create a KDZ file?

Good night!
This thread is a "2 questions", really.
I have a D685, know as LG G Pro Lite Dual. I want to try make a custom ROM, but, for now, this model don't have a recovery to flash ROMs, or CWM. It don't have bootloader (wich is locked) or fastboot mode. All it have is a stock recovery, which is nothing but and android opened (the keys do nothing), and a "download mode".
The only ways to flash a ROM into this phone is using LG Mobile Tools (the offline method) in download mode, or official LG Program. With the offline method, we flash a file with a KDZ extension.
I can extract it, it give me a CAB file. When extracted, I have 2 files: a DLL and a BIN file, instead a .DZ or .WDB file. I can't find a program/way/thread to extract the BIN file... anyway to do this?
The intention is get the system.img (or whatever) inside the BIN, cook it, and reflash it. Then, you ask: "How to reflash, if this device don't have a recovery?"
Well, this is my second question! If I can create the KDZ file, maybe I can "integrate" the system.img into the KDZ, and flash using the offline method!
By this way, maybe we can have a recovery and boot images, too... If the BIN file have them, maybe we can cook boot and recovery, too... maybe... All depends what is inside the BIN file, and of course, if we can create or recreate the KDZ and flash it.
Any tips for these questions?
Thanks!
EDIT: we have root, at least. Tried to get boot and recovery with MTK Droid Tools, but the phone don't boot. It gives a security error just after turns on..

[Q] I hope to help the problem in the firmware installation

I need help in the problem of non-completion of the installation of the firmware
phone Galaxy S6 Edge Model SM-G925I
Root was rooting , When you attempt the firmware installation is not completed See attached photo .
The file was the inauguration of linkage here and then returned to life, but so far the inauguration of the firmware can not be the same problem .

now..comes the part that is not simple..there non online..you must get it from your phone..the best is a rooted phone..there are some tutorials and tools online..simple google search it..I tried but was tired with my non rooted phone..
BTW..what you can try is to extract the firmware and make your own with only system and kernel firmware..look in the general thread for new Vodafone firmware..I will try that also...it should bring a few updates..

I got the same issue many times with some regional FWs on my old GS5, just follow these steps and you should be ok, i guess it's a mismatched "hidden" partition size, you don't need anyway, i contains only some bloats most of the times.
- Extrat the FW with any archiving tool (i recommend 7zip).
- Remove "Hidden.img"
- Repack all other files as "tar" archive with 7zip, OR linux command line "tar -cvf G925I_AOD1.tar sboot.bin cm.bin recovery.img boot.img cache.img modem.bin system.img"
- Flash it through Odin

Hi kepiro,
you can extract modem.bin from the firmware image with 7zip or WinRAR, ignore the error message and extract the file. For changing your CSC you can have a look here.
Flashing modem.bin is possible with odin.

The modem.bin is located in the root of the compressed tar, here's a picture of the opened archive: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-alpha/help/lolipop-modem-t3185495.
You can take the modem.bin file untouched to flash via odin.
