Hi,
The company Ainol release their latest updates as img files which we than have to flash using a program called livesuit. Does anyone know the process (or have any tips) on converting these img files to clockworkmod zip files?
I can extract the system and kernel files using something similar to this tutorial: http://www.techknow.t0xic.nl/forum/index.php?topic=1679.0
That tutorial explains how to modify the img file and then repack as img. I tried moving the system directory and the kernel & ramdisk over into a clockworkmod zip that i know works and overwrote the files in that with the one i had extracted.
when i try to install it, i get the e: cant open cwmzip.zip
(bad)
any ideas? Maybe i need to get the updater binary from the extracted files somehow?

It really all depends, how many images? What are the images called? What are in each of the images if there is more then one?
thanks for replying, i think i have it right. I ran a log and saw that there was an invalid filename in my zip and sure enough, i looked in the app folder and saw a file with a lot of chinese characters. Deleting this file has sorted this problem
Thanks for replying anyways!
Can someone extract this .IMG file for me in Linux and upload all the files inside it for me please
Good evening,
I'd like to apologise first for my english, as it may not be perfect.
I'm trying to backup some app with adb backup (giving me a .ab file), transform the .ab file to a .tar file, extract the .tar file and change some files in it, then repack the .tar file (this is my problem) , then restore it to the phone.
I'm using windows, and my phone is not rooted.
I managed to get the app with adb backup, managed to transform the .ab file into a .tar file, managed to extract the .tar file and change some files in it, but i can't find how to repack the .tar file. This is the main problem, as i think once the .tar file is well repacked, the restoration with adb will be easy. I found some topics about it, but seems that repacking a .tar file is not that easy as I need to get the header from the .ab file and recreate the .tar file with it. All the solutions I found are for linux, and I'm really not quite good with it, so any solution with Windows would be awesome.
Hope anyone can help me,
Thanks
I accidentally deleted DefaultContrainerService.apk and now I can't install apps. Can someone tell how can I extract system.img.ext4 to get it back?
I think Android Kitchen can do that.

7-Zip
7-Zip cannot read .img.ext4 files. I used program called sgs2toext4 and now the file is .ext4.img and 7-Zip can read it but it can't extract any .so files. I need to get libdefcontrainer_jni.so from /system/priv-app/DefaultContrainerService/lib/arm.

Use for that the EXT2 unpacker tool,

Select Package and then the directory where you want to extract it.
Doesn't work. It can't save that .so file.
same problem here, i try to extract cache.img from S8 firmware (G950FXXU1AQJ1/G950FOXM1AQJ1/G950FXXU1AQJ1/G950FXXU1AQJ1 , 20171018104053) . using ImgExtractor 1.3.7 it extracts , but the extracted zip cannot be opened by any program, with ext4_unpacker (after i fix the img header 4 bytes using sgs4ext4fs) it gives 'list index out of bounds' when i try to extract the zip, using CacheRipperUX it extracts the zip from img but when i try to open the zip using 7-zip it only sees a few files, when i try to open with Winrar it sees full list but cannot extract any of them because it give archive corrupted.
i found a solution: convert the original cache.img (samsung sparse ext4) to raw ext4 using simg2img , and the resulted .img file open with 7-zip and extract the content. My zip content was extracted correctly.
Is there any app for android which can extract .img files like system.img?
hello, i used WindowsLGFirmwareExtractor to extract a kdz file to a dz file. then i merged into a system.img file. then opened that file in ext2explore. there is an app folder with all the apps in it. what i would like to know is first, can i delete the apps i dont want, and second, re-create a kdz file and flash that. and how do i make a new file to flash? would i delete the whole folder, or just the apk inside the folder?
