With xonar's LG Bin Firmware Extractor, we are able to extract the bin files into partitions (the image files for our device).
So, what can you do with this you ask?
Well if you ever deleted a system app ( /system/app/*.apk ) or anything else (ringtones & etc), you can recover it from the kdz file.
This thread was a follow-up on Cmahendra's guide, extracting kdz files into .bin(s).
However, thanks to our siblings in the LG-P970 forum, we have a simpler way to extract the kdz into images.
@jes0411 and others ( @t0g3, @Ilko, & @navossoc ) created a really sweet program to do all the thinking for us here.
I just stripped it down some and modified it to extract the kdz into images faster and simpler.
Alright,
1. First you will need a kdz file. Don't forget to thank @cmahendra
2. Download and extract my OPTIMUS_L9_IMAGE_EXTRACTOR.zip to any folder.

Please check Md5sum with this free program WinMD5.
3. Open the "Place KDZ HERE" folder and put your kdz file(s) inside. Then double click on the "RUN BINEXTRACTOR.bat", select the # for your kdz and press ENTER
NOTE: The System image takes awhile to extract.
4. To further extract the system image, double click on "EXPLORER.bat" and give it Administrator rights. Navigate to the system image (9-system.img), click "open", and right click Save (to any folder).
The other batch script (EXTRACT TO BINS.bat) will duh, extract the kdz to bin files only. I also have instruction on how to extract the x-loader with a hex editor (for those hardcore nerds, like me ; )
I have flashed the x-loader, u-boot, boot, recovery, & system images, so all image are :good:
Question? Why are some images blank (0b)? Answer
Credits:
The first person to thanks is navossoc for creating his program to extract the kdz into .bin(s) files.
The second person to thank is Xonar_ for creating the LG Bin Firmware Extractor to work for our device. (Thank you for all your hard work, and for teaching this noob something : )
Third, to the creators of ext2Fsd
Fourth, to @jes0411 and others ( @t0g3, @Ilko, & @navossoc ), I've learned a lot about batch scripts, by dissecting y'all work
The last but not least person to thank is Cmahendra for creating all his threads full of information. I would have never found all this information on my own :good:
Thanks, really useful
That's simply AMAZING
Thank you very much!!!!

Y'all should thank xonar_ for making his program compatible for our devices. Another thing, he updated his source so we don't have to be run in compatibility mode, I'll upload the fixed binextractor later tonight.

Send me a screen shot of what looks like. Extexplore must be ran as administrator. Check out the text or in this thread on how to use those programs. Another thing, how big is the system img size?
To use extfsd you need to install virtual clonedriver first,
Right click on the system img and mount with virtual clone
The how to geek website does not say that extfsd must be installed as administrator, but it does.
Righr click on extFsd and (run as administrator) install, Once opened, click on the tool tab and select "Service Management" (or just press F7 key) then press the "Start"
Note: I HAD MY SYSTEM CRASH WHILE USING EXT2FSD, SO DON'T USE IT WHILE DOING IMPORTANT STUFF!
BETTER YET DON'T USE. UPDATING THE THREAD

Thanks a lot for this guide with good screenshot images. Already had this bin-extractor info but recently I did not get enough time to put all the things together. May be earlier I was working like demon-possessed person but then few people started bugging me and killed my passion. May be you noticed it.
Anyways thanks a lot. Many people will find it useful :good:

Ext2fsd has never crashed on me ever with my laptop on windows 7.
I don't change compatibility mode and I don't run it as admin. Don't know why its unstable for you. Maybe this system.img isn't as stable as other ones I've extracted?? Idk.
I've mainly only extracted bins/tots from the the msm8960 processor phones. Hmm, I'll check it out sometime.

I had it happen twice, I still use it though , the crash might be happening because I'm using it with virtual clonedriver. If the website (for Ext2Fsd) states it can crash your system then that's proof enough for me. I just want to make everyone aware of that possibility. I only noticed the crash taking place right after I take my computer out of sleep and I had the image mounted

It depend on the apk, you might have an updated apk (larger) currently on your phone. The system apps you extract are the original apps. The best way to check, is to install cwm (artax182 clockworkmod) and make a backup. Then turn your phone back on and swap the app with the one you extracted, if it works all is good.
Now about the blank partitions ( 0B), xonar_ reports that they are blank because no new information is written to those partitions. Whatever was put on the phone with the factory install doesn't get changed. He made it blank to show that nothing gets replaced/over written when you flash the kdz. Which is why the mlt partition keeps the same information when flashing new roms (I'm not sure if you know what i mean, but some that have been around for awhile do )
In addition, the x-loader.img is not created because (like the others) nothing is changed (x-loader stays the same). I was wondering about this myself but xonar_ cleared it all up for me
Question? Do you mean some files from inside the system.img are blank? If that is the case it's probably an error for sure. Things are always bound to go wrong with computer (Humans make them )

Yeah that definitely seems like an error. I'll upload the updated binextractor (you won't have to run in compatibility mode) with a md5 sum (to check if it all good)
The virutal clondrive & ext2fsd is faster, once it's all set up and (the image is mounted), it's like opening any folder (copy & paste by dragging)

What I'd like to do is to pull off all the files (keeping the structures intact) and either create an image file (.bin/.img) or something along those lines.
I know of DDMS and Android Commander, but I don't think they have the full power to get everything and I also understand the phone has to be rooted (which is not a big deal). Has anyone had any luck/expertise in this area?
If I can get this to work it then it would help out with some of the research that I am doing since it'll be easier to mount the image file in linux and go from there.
Alternate idea, does anyone know if when making a backup of the rom with CWM or BM does it hold the same type of data? If so where is the boot.img located?
Thanks for the help in advance!
I think there're a couple of threads in the development section regarding the images dumped from this phone.

You can use an app called App2card at below for your need. It has the data tools for backing up any file/folder on any kind of storage (internal flash, fat32, ext2/3/4...) and ability to restore them in original structure as they were when backing up

Thanks, I tried that last night but the init.rc and other imortant files cannot be copied due to permissions access.
I eventually used CWM to make a backup of the phone and pulled the files that way. I just wonder if it has all the files on the phone (haven't had time to root through it yet)?

I think you can post your question in RomRacer's recovery thread; it's in dev section
What the Glob am I talking about?
Alright so due too my ****ty signal at home I am very curious if there is a way we can make a mod too enable us AT&T Galaxy note users to make internet calls without the use of a 3rd party app such as Google voice or GrooVe IP.
So Lets begin, Im aware of how T-mobile users have the feature of making calls through wifi, but recently I ran into a thread that posted that states how to"Add native android SIP stack for Wifi & 3G calls in ICS " Link > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1674592.
We know it used to work on the international galaxy note until samsung pulled the feature out when upgrading to ICS. we also know the old method does not work for ICS ROMs. Yet I believe here in xda we can make it happen wether we use some other sort of method to achieve this mod.I was looking around xda forums & other users are saying it has too do with the kernel yet others say you have too mod the framework-res.apk ..im a bit lost.
Here is an article from techsilver.com too back up my post of this thread.
Restore Wi-Fi Calling On The International Galaxy Note Running ICS [How-To]
A new method from XDA Developer’s forum member ‘mrcasmir’ for ICS users restores Wi-Fi calling.
It basically works by modifying theframework-res.apk to allow SIP. This in result allows Wi-Fi calling. In addition to enabling internet calls (Wi-Fi and 3G) the mod has other useful features too; it enables all orientations on your phone which means that your phone’s screen can rotate all around, a rotating lockscreen when in landscape and portrait orientations, your phone screen staying dark when you connect USB/charger as well as tablet like dialogue boxes.
Your device needs to be rooted for this method to work on it. Follow the steps below to be able to use your mobile for internet calls:
Please perform a backup before you begin, just to be on the safe side. TechSliver is not to be blamed for any accidental loss in data or in case your device gets bricked. Proceed at your own risk.
Step 1: Download android.software.sip.voip.zip—> (courtesy of mobilegalaxy).
Step 2: Extract and copy the .xml file to /etc/permissions using ES file explorer, Root Explorer or any other root browsing app. The file can also be pushed via ADB but you must be rooted in order to do any of these.
Step 3: Download the framework-res.zip, then extract the content and copy it to /system/framework. Alternatively you can also push this. This framework-res.apk has been tested on the following ROMs:
LPY
LPF
LP8
LP9
LQ2
Kingdroid 2.0
Use it on any other ROM at your own risk.
Your phone will freeze for a bit and then quickly reboot. If it does not do so, reboot manually after giving it some time to copy the files. Your Galaxy Note should now have internet calling enabled. Enjoy!
If unfortunately something goes wrong whilst you follow these steps or it doesn’t work for you, just push back Stock framework-res.apk or re-flash Non-wipe ICS ROM.
For additional information, head over to XDA Developers Forum.

What's my point ?
Well for one I would love too see the day I can make wifi calls using my AT&T Galaxy Note and second It seems too me that some IF not most everyone is a bit thirsty too know if the method used on the international verison of the GNote works on their device/Rom & I myself am guilty of that. On the original thread by mrcasmir i posted my framework-res.apk to see if mrcasmir would reply and test my framework to see if the mod works but nothing has happend yet...
Why dont I try this out my self you say?
We all have a life and beside here on xda we less gifted non developer "noobs" ask alot of questions too those highly ranked, Sometimes we are scared to mess something up or we just dont know where too begin. I respect all developers and non-developers such as my self & I appreciate the OP mrcasmir for taking the time to make the mod availble for the international GNote. But i will not lie I am a little intimidated too edit my framework and screw some ish up but I will take pride and proceed too see if this works on my Rom and my Galaxy Note so stay updated and i will check if it works or not.
If ANYONE or if some recognized developer has any insight on this please shed some light & help us/ME out. Any help or clarification would be useful. Im not sure if its possible but yet nothing should be impossible.
(if that makes any sense) Lol
UPDATE!! THESE ARE INSTRUCTIONS DIRECTLY FROM THE OP FROM THE ORIGINAL FRAMEWORK GIVING YOU WIFI CALLING OPTION ON YOUR GNOTE GIVE THANKS TO HIM AND ME IF YOU WANT xD
Just a little changelog of what the modified framework-res.apk can do
Enables internet call (Wifi & 3G)
Enables all orientations (your phone rotates all round)
Rotating Lockscreen (Landscape + Portrait)
Screen stays off on USB/Charger disconnect
Just download one of the .zip files below extract and copy android.software.sip.voip.xml (its in this folder \system\etc\permissions) file to /etc/permissions using ES file explorer, Root explorer or any root browsing app. You can also push this file via ADB but you must be rooted in order to do any of these. After copy framework-res.apk (its in this folder \system\framework) to /system/framework, you can also push this. Your phone will freeze and quickly reboot, if not reboot manually but give it enough time to copy the files.
You should have internet calling now and all the other extras.
NOTE: Always backup incase something goes wrong, I am not to be held responsible for any bricks.
However, if anything goes wrong, just push back Stock framework-res.apk or if not reflash Non-wipe ICS ROM.
This framework-res.apk is specifically tested on the GNote ICS ROMs listed above, use it in any other ROM at your own risk.
--------------------------EASIER STEP FOR NON-ROOTED ROMS--------------------------
To simplify these steps, I have made a flashable zip. Download one of the .zip files and put it in your sdcard (external)---Do not extract pls.
Boot into recovery (Vol up + Power button + Home button all together)
-------ALREADY HAVE CWM DO THIS-------
Scroll down to 'Install zip from sdcard'
Then 'Select zip from Internal/External sd'
Find the zip where you saved it and select it
Select Yes to install.
NOTE: CWM uses Vol up & down to scroll and Home button to select
----------STOCK RECOVERY DO THIS---------
Download CWM Touch
Copy to External sdcard
Boot into recovery
Scroll down to 'Apply update from external sdcard'
Locate CWM and select it
Select Yes to install
CWM Touch will load automatically
Click 'Install zip from sdcard'
Click 'Select zip from Internal/External sd'
Locate the zip where you saved it scrolling with your finger or with volume button
Click on it and select yes to install.
NOTE: Stock recovery uses volume up & down to scroll and Power button to select while CWM Touch uses hand + Vol up & down for scrolling and Touch and Home button to select.
When all is done, go back and select Reboot system.
If you have any questions post it here.
THERE ARE FOUR DIFFERENT WAYS TO GET THIS DONE
1. Copy using root explorer
2. Push using ADB
3. Install using CWM Touch temporary
4. Install using CWM kernel installed on your phone.
FOR STEP
1. You must have root and root explorer app, just download the file, extract and copy each to their respective directories (refer to the step above).
2. Push the two files using ADB but you need root in order to do this.
3. Install temporary CWM Touch via stock recovery and flash the zip. This does not install CWM in your phone, it disappears as soon as you reboot.
4. Install CWM kernel for your ROM and use it to flash the zip.
if your looking for the download go to the original thread and scroll till you see the downloads.. (sorry i couldnt past them here)

there are a few roms that have SIP as one of their main features. I recall one rom-maker even talking about it in his Youtube video. I'd check out the ROMs with youtube videos.

Alright guys so good news remember that thread I listed above about the framwork mod? Well I spoke to the OP of the thread and I sent him my framework and he managed to incorporate the "wifi calling" option into the phones settings..
do this after you flash the .zip file go to Settings---> Call----> Internet Account Settings. That is what it adds to your phone where you can setup your Internet calling accounts like SIP in order to use them to make calls instead of your mobile network. You still need a SIP provider but you can just google (android SIP client or i think you can configure google voice as well) I personally havent gone any further and gotten an SIP client but i found a forum that tells you how to use google voice > > >
http://androidforums.com/android-ap...voip-calling-using-google-voice-sipdroid.html
Anyways below is the link to the thread I was talking about and all the files are there needed to flash it. You can either flash it in cwm or just do it manually. Good luck!

I looked at the other thread, and the framework-res.apk that he has is about 18.7mb, however the Goldie ICS rom which I'm using has the framework-res apk at 12.6mb, so I'm sure its not compatible with the one on the other thread, has that apk worked for you? If yes which rom are you on right now?
EDIT: nvm, I'm editing the framework-res.apk from my goldie and I'll see if it works, if it does I'll post, and on success I could edit the apk from other roms as well.., lets see.
I just uploaded the goldie modded file,
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27597907/modded-framework-res.apk
rename to framework-res.apk and put it in \system\framework
do make a backup of your original framework-res.apk
Also add the xml file to the respective directory from the original thread, please note this is for the SGS3 TW Goldie Rom ONLY.

This mod just allows you so you can setup your Internet calling accounts with SIP in order to use them to make calls instead of your mobile network.
here are a few link i found useful:

I do not know of how to set it up using another client and not google voice but like i said a quick google search will solve your problems. I personally use google voice i dont see why not.

I looked at the other thread, and the framework-res.apk that he has is about 18.7mb, however the Goldie ICS rom which I'm using has the framework-res apk at 12.6mb, so I'm sure its not compatible with the one on the other thread, has that apk worked for you? If yes which rom are you on right now?
EDIT: nvm, I'm editing the framework-res.apk from my goldie and I'll see if it works, if it does I'll post, and on success I could edit the apk from other roms as well.., lets see.
I just uploaded the goldie modded file,

Im taking a guess that this mod of the framework will work with many roms but i suggest if you do more than one mod too your framework you keep a back up of original and each and every time you do modify it make sure you edit it properly and always back up every time you do insert a new mod. Get me?

I'm glad it works! And if someone has a framework file that is significantly different from the file size of the one I posted, please do not overwrite yours, instead post it here, and I can mod and re-post the file.
I'm also looking at setting this up, I have very poor signal at home too, and this would be useful. :good: Once I have something working, I'll post what I did
So I managed to get Google Wallet working on the AT&T Galaxy S4 using what has become common place now - using files from Sprint's phone. Since they have an MDL release, our files are actually very similar making this easy to do. Of course, that also means you should be on MDL to use this. It may work on older releases, but I haven't tested that.
Since we don't have a recovery, I've attached a zip containing the files you need in the directories they should go in. If someone wants to write a batch file to install it, feel free - but I'm a Linux user I don't use batch files. You will need to install Xposed framework to use this. You may be able to use a region / device patched Wallet APK directly, but I haven't tested that.
Steps:
0) Root is required. A de-odexed system is required.
1) Install the files from the wallet.zip on to your phone, placing the files from the zip in the same directory layout on your phone. Reboot.
2) Install Xposed framework. Run the App, install the modified app_process and reboot.
3) Install the Google Wallet Xposed mod. Run the Xposed Installer App and enable this from the modules tab. Reboot again.
3) Install Google Wallet from the Play Store (I pushed it from play.google.com but whatever works).
4) Run Google Wallet. It should sit as "Setting up Google Wallet" for a few minutes (mine took 2 or 3 minutes) and you should be able to configure Wallet from there.
5) Optional: Restore the AT&T build.prop if you wish. I haven't noticed any side effects from not doing and I like the "4G" icon.
build.prop changes:
Code:
ro.product.model=SAMSUNG-SGH-I337
ro.product.name=jflteuc
ro.product.device=jflteatt
ro.build.product=jflteatt
This is not for inexperienced users. You assume all risk by attempting the above procedure.
I would highly recommend you make a backup of the Google Wallet app and data using Titanium Backup after setup. If you wipe data down the road, it may be impossible to reset your Secure Element without doing this. You have been warned!
Edit: My initial upload missed feature.xml in the csc folder in the wallet.zip. Re-download if your does not include a csc folder.

I don't do videos, but I would be happy to link to one if someone else provided it. I'd also be happy to attach one of those "copy it to your SD card and run run.bat" if someone provided it. I'm just here to provide the groundwork and foundation

So I copied the wallet.zip files on to my system dir. Rebooted my phone and now it's a blank screen with just the blue LED pulsating. I"m sure I did something wrong here, not sure what it was. Still at the 1st step.

Sorry, I feel bad for missing that. I'd use Odin to restore if I were you. It will preserve your data, so you will just need to re-root (and re-OTA if you want it).

It works on AT&T; there's just no recovery to install an easy to use zip for you yet. It has to be done by hand. I'll repack this once an unlocked bootloader is available.

I attached the Google Wallet Xposed patch I use; it works. You do have to edit build.prop (or use the included one) for initial Wallet setup. This is because this information is used in initial provisioning and there's no way around it (this is required for the SGS3 / Note2 / using with AOSP / etc).
Yes, the only changes to feature.xml was in the NFC section.

Aye I changed my build.prop back to AT&T, I modded systemui to show AT&T as eupoean for signal icons/ signal bars set to 6 so I did not want to lose that lol.
Thank you for confirmation on the features.xml I use a few mods in there and was easier to copy NFC the each mod.
Hopefully I dont kill my phone like ive been doing messing with /system hacks. I dont want to go through it all again lol.

Hey, in the attached zip (apk), I want to extract the loading screen to have as a wallpaper.
I for the love of god couldnt get a screenshot of it (seemed like there where some conflicts with loading+screenshotting)
and I cant seem to find it.

You can try using 7zip to extract the image, many .png and .jpg images will be easily obtainable this way. If that fails try brutall's apk decompiling tool, just Google it, its easy to use. Or I blevie daneshm (something like that) made a different one based off brutall work. Either way there are many to chose from and all easily found with the search button

RE: What you can do is look on xda for an android app called Zarchiver. This opens many file types. Make sure to download the arm version.
Then navigate to the apk file, hold the touch screen and click open as archive. Also, goto <filename.apk> and navigate to /res/img/hdpi then grab your image. Here's the link to Zarchiver- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2154241 remember, get 0.65 arm (the first link).

But while trying to replace the file using Solid Explorer my phone got Restarted
And ended up in Boot Loop :crying:
Lucky I Had a Nandroid Backup of 20th August.
Restoring Backup had fixed the Boot Loop
But I lost many of my mods
Its my fault

The problem was that you're editing an important file of android os. You can't edit that file when using phone ,you have to replace file through recovery and set correct permissions to file.
So you need to create an update.zip (I can do this if you're not in hurry)

Unfortunately, I found out you could fix the problem without losing data ,asking me how? I'll tell you(bad news ,yea?)
You could access recovery right?so you could do these to make your ROM back to life:
create nandroid backup from the unbootable ROM ,do wipes ,flash new ROM ,updating recovery(as you said dear laura) +make files ready to flash(move or what ever)
Then restore the defective ROM and flash file (android.policy.jar) ....
That's it, everything works again without losing any thing! Sorry if I made you sad again :banghead:
Plus ,are you sure "killing via back button" option doesn't existing in settings /developing (named as " stop app via long press back button ")???? Cause almost all of custom Roms have this feature.

The file manager can have any name. You just install it like any other zip.
From the recovery file manager, try replacing that jar again, and use the terminal included in the file manager(menu > terminal) to chmod the replaced jar file.

Actually Omega Rom (Which i used) has this Feature....
But i have moded so much, now it doesnt even look like Omega rom.
I removed many of its features and Added many extra mods.
While doing so i had changed my android.policy.jar a couple of time.
by doing so i lost "Stop App via long press Menu button" feature

I Use PhilZ Touch Recovery
In PhilZ Touch Recovery i have to do the following steps for Aroma File Manager Support
Download Aroma File Manager from its Home Page
Get the 1.90 version and name the file aromafm.zip
Put the aromafm.zip in clockworkmod/aromafm/aromafm.zip in external or internal sdcards
In recovery, tap the Aroma File Manager menu or double tap any part of the screen outside menus
It will launch the file manager automatically
Double tap gesture linked to Aroma File Manager can be altered in the GUI Settings menu

If the file name is not aromafm.zip then it wont work.

Aroma File Manager Support Adapted from amarullz and sk8erwitskil
You get here the possibility to browse your phone with root access in a friendly GUI file browser, while being in recovery
You even now get a terminal emulator to run in recovery

Building a Rom is not an easy task.
And I'm not sure that whether everyone is going to like my rom.
After all I'm a girl, my likings will be entirely different from you guys...
But i do have a Custom Rom.
I had flashed it to all my friends who has S3.
They liked it very much (But they all are Girls)

If you don't create a thread for your Rom then you'll never know it'll be popular or not.most of girls don't like cyanogen cause of color less UI , but you know what do girls exactly like
Ps.How do you create build.prop? I mean some serial numbers or build numbers should not change to fake num. Right?
