You can download the XTZ bootanimation.zip file from THIS POST. To use it on a different device, you probably will have to edit the desc.txt file contained in the bootanimation.zip file.

Assuming you are using Microsoft Windows, you will need four programs to extract files from the .ftf file.
1. An archive file tool like WinRAR or 7-Zip. Use the tool to extract the system.sin file from the .ftf file. You might have to change the .ftf extension to .rar or .zip to cause WinRAR or 7-Zip to open the file.
2. sin2img.exe. Use it to create a system.img file from system.sin file.
3. Ext2 Volume Manager (aka ext2fsd). It is a Windows driver. Running it will allow Windows to access the EXT4 partitions in the system.img file.
4. OSFMount. Use it to mount/unmount the system.img file as a Windows drive.
When you have the system.img file mounted as a Windows drive, you can extract whatever files you want.

Any one know how? or how to add and remove a file in the .ftf in flashtools?
1.Unpack .ftf file(as .zip or .rar) to get the file : system.sin
2.Use SIN2IMG.exe to transfer system.sin into system.img
3.Use unyaffs.exe to upack the system.img into resources you need
You can download SIN2IMG & unyaffs from the Internet
It's not an easy thing to add resources into .ftf file
Actually,Linux enviornment is required to pack the resources into .img file
But you may use Cygwin(HTC [email protected]) to help you do such things.

Thanks, now how do I repack it to .ftf ?
i need the same help
Unless you are modifying the baseband or kernel, it may be easier to make an xrecovery zip from system.img once you unpack and modify it however you want to.
Seems all 2.3.3 SE roms are on the same kernel/BB so if you're on the right ones already all you'll need is an xrec zip to build the rest. If you are on an older/different kernel/BB then Doomlord has an ftf package with just those 2 things & detailed instructions on how to get it going.

I am able to extract the system.sin
then create a system.img with sin2img.exe, but when I try to unpack the .img file, unyaffs.exe only gives me stackfiles and not a new directory.

Thanks for the links i already got guides to make my own rom.Am using dsixda' android kitchen and as the per the instruction given.For xperia x10
"First reinstall a Android 2.1.
Then root it.
Install a XRecovery.
Then backup it.
Now you will get system.img in backup folder."
My doubt is wether this backup should be dont with the stock rom itself or can i use an existing custom rom?And if it should be from stock rom then is it enough use the system.img file obtain by extracting ftf and then using sin2img?

hi all
how can i convert ftf bundle into rom or to its system dump?
thanks
1. Open the .ftf file in some sort of archive manager and extract its content. You should be left with a bunch of .sin files.
2. Find a tool called SIN2IMG. Use this tool on system.sin. You should be left with an .img file.
3. Open the .img file in an archive manager and extract its content. You should now have all of the contents of /system for you to play with.
Pretty sure that's how to do it...

So with SIN2IMG I just bash in 'SIN2IMG system.sin system.img' ?
And I assume to to repack it, you repack up the /system folder into a .img, use a tool (maybe sin2img?) to convert it to a sin, then re-archive it up as a .ftf using same archive manager?
I'm using 7z..? Would like to have a butchers really, see what's changeable.
Random Question.. could one push binaries like su or apt-get to the phone by stickin' em in with the kernel/system images?
Many thanks!
Which archive manager? I can't mount it and unyaffs gives segmentation error (ubuntu), tried mounting with one from software centre, had an empty folder..

I have download firmware in .zip format. in my pc i have install WINRAR. this shown only zip. if i extract there i not find .ftf file. i try to rename but its shown zip. how i change get .ftf file. plz reply me
an .ftf file is just a zip-file with a different extension, just rename it, right-click on it and change .zip to .ftf
I believe you have not open the option to see the extention of your file. open it in your windows, then you can change it. or, just use mobile phone explorer to do it.
c3poyoda said:
you are not suppose to change the file. zip is zip, not ftf. It is like you changed cloth but you are not becoming to another person.
If you do need ftf format, download only ftf, not the zip.

The built-in Windows Archiver used to zip folders doesn't use the proper format for files that need to be flashed. You should use Winrar or 7-zip if you have unpacked the zip-files.
If you've just downloaded the files without unpacking them, just rename them to .ftf without unpacking. Because your browser recognises the .ftf's as .zip-files it renames them on download-completion, simply renaming them back will solve your issues.

Here I'm posting how to convert .kdz file into a Flashable zip file, The list of files you needed are
Official kdz file
kdz extractor
LGwinTools
ext2explore
Cygwin (If you are a windows user) from here
dsixda's kitchen This Thread
1. Extract the kdz extractor to the new folder, just drag and drop the kdz file to the unpack_kdz.bat. You will find the .cab file in the same directory where you have kdz.
2. Drag and drop the cab file to unpack_cab.bat. The dz file will be extracted to /dz folder in the same directory.
3. Now extract and open LGwinTools file->open locate the dz file. Items will be displayed in bin files, now click on save to any new folder.
4. We need two files SYSTEM and APPS. Extract and run ext2explore then locate the SYSTEM file, it will load. Now click on save to any new directory(make sure the folder name is system)
5. Now rename the file APPS to "boot.img" (you have extracted from LGwinTools)
6. Make an archive .zip containing \system boot.img \META-INF(attached below)
6 Next process will be installing "Cygwin" read this
7. Installing dsixda's Kitchen read this
8. After you installation you have move the created zip file to \kitchen\original_update (In my case it is "C:\Cygwin\home\Santhoosh\Kitchen\original_update")
9. Run Cygwin
Code:
cd kitchen
./menu
10. Setup working folder and go to Advanced option select "Deodex files in your rom" MAKE SURE YOU SET THE API LEVEL TO 19 and choose both system and framework
11. After this "Rename the app folder in /system to app1" "priv-app to app" in WORKING Directory
12. Now again go for Deodex and deodex the remaining files. after completion rename app to priv-app and app1 to app.
13. Make sure the updator-script is untouched
14. Do zip align(optional) and make any other changes you want.
15. Remove unnecessary app like GooglePlus etc. Remove the Qtranslator and Polarisviewer apk and odex files.
Note: After Deodexing the LG Keyboard will not work, Remove it and add any other keyboard to app folder.
16. Now move to working folder and make a zip file of all. (/system /META-INF boot.img)
17. FLASH IT :laugh::laugh:
18. To Gain root access you have to download this and flash SU
I tried to unpack kdz file, but the programm (unpack_kdz.bat) didn't work. The text in a window is : "Error! LGExtract.exe is not internal or external command, programm or batch file". Why did this error happened? I use windows 7 x64

Use for that the EXT2 unpacker tool,
https://androidfrog.com/5gt67f
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?
