Hi
I've got a HUAWEI u8815 phone stuck in boot loop - I can use Fastboot to flash BOOT.IMG and RECOVERY.IMG to it fine.
Thing is I need to flash a SYSTEM.IMG but the only backup of the System is a CWM backup that is not in *.IMG format.
It has
- system.ext4.dup
- blobs (folder - containing loads of folders and files)
Question is can I make a SYSTEM.IMG from these files... or flash the blobs - but if so how?
I'm very stuck so any help appreciated.
Thanks

Fixed - by using Fastboot to update to latest ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.2.7 that allowed me to access the file system by mounting the SD cards... I was sweating for a bit.

Thanks first.
Is possible that copy files to recovery partition via adb?
The way it is, I'm porting CW Recovery to a new device, flash img to recovery, it's not work at all, stop at bootlogo.
I try to extract ramdisk.gz from native recovery.img, but failed, gunzip/cpio is useless. someone said copy files to recovery partition, CW Recovery worked. How to? via adb?
If it's possible, copy compiled files first, dump_image recovery secondly, packbootimg finally.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
My EVO 3D backup consists of the following:
.android_secure.vfat
cache.ext4
data.ext4
recovery.img
boot.img
system.ext4
I had created the backup using Rom Manager. Now when I am trying to restore the same using rom manager, the mobile restarts, shows some process and nothing really happens. When I am try to do a recovery using CWM, I get the following error:
system.img not found
data.img not found
cache.img not found.
What should I do?
Any help would be appreciated as I have no clue regarding this.

Flash 4EXT recovery and then try to restore. I dont think this format of backup is compatible with cwm recovery
Okay so I have a tablet that not many have CWM was not supported. a Pyle Astro 7 Tablet
Heres what i did so far.
1. Got Root Access and busybox successfully
2. Backed up Recovery.img System.img kernel.img Boot.img successfully via terminal emulator.
3. Used builder.clockworkmod.com and made CMW recovery for my device by extracting the recovery.fstab and using the stock device recovery.img
4.moved it to device
5. removed the install-recovery.sh
6. couldnt locate any other recovery related .sh or .p files except autorecoveryon.sh and autorecovery.off.sh also removed them for the time being.
7. attempted to flash cmwrecovery.img via terminal via following code.
flash_image recovery /sdcard/cwmrecovery.img (i named file cwmrecovery.img for easier access.
8.rebooted device into recovery.
Still stock recovery...
Am I missing anything?
Any help would be awesome! If needed i can upload the System.img Boot.img Recovery.img CWMrecovery.img and Kernel.img
Thank you in advance!

How did you root your Pyle tablet? Any tips on the procedure? Im having trouble getting mine rooted.
Thanks!
Unpack the system.img file as shown in the image below link, how can I create a file ".img" to flash by fastboot on an android device?

now you have to make an update zip and flash it through CWM/TWRP recovery!
(assuming that your phone has custom recovery installed)
Hi guys I have a nandroid backup files Which contains System.ext4.win(it is a TWRP backup file) now i want to convert it to system.img.
I don't want to use TWRP recovery for its restoration. Just want to restore via FASTBOOT commands. If you guys have any Ideas or sentiments then please provide the guide HOW TO CONVERT IT INTO .img file. Any help would be appreciated.
NOTE=[Please don't tell me that you can restore it ONLY via TWRP!!!!! I am STUBBORN I JUST want to FLASH this file ONLY and ONLY via FASTBOOT MODE ]
Rename system.ext4.win to system.img & flash it.
