It makes ftf from the files you have...for example if u have kernel.sin and loader.sin, then u can convert it into an ftf
If u really don't know much I won't recommend u
But no harm in giving a shot
Press THANKS if I helped,

no dont worry I know enough. I know the files after unpacking ftf are like you told. I just had this little hope that it is making ftf from zip. Great work and will try it in some days. Thanks hitted

Maybe you should explain a bit more how it works and what I can use it for
Because I guess there will be some people who want to build a ftf with their own modified /system folder, so better explain all files that "could" be in the input folder and how your program works :good:

I don't really think that it will be possible....but u can give it a try....if anyone want's to try, try to do the following:
1. Change any custom kernel to sin if possible.
2. Then download the stock ftf ROM for which the kernel is made.
3. Then extract the stock ftf and get loader.sin from it.
4. Combine loader.sin and kernel.sin together.
5. Then compress them in ftf format with this tool.
6. Then try to flash it and see if it works.
Most chances are that it won't so try anything at ur risk.

Nice tool bro.
Creating custom kernel as .sin files is not possible for our Xperia 2011 devices. Only Sony can do that. There is a way for Xperia 2010 devices but it mostly won't work on our devices. Good work though

i dont know about headers.... and so its editing

Check- "No final verification" and continue....btw I don't think if you had unpacked a sin file, edited and repacked it, it will work....if it wud have then we cud flash custom roms via flashtool
