Maybe "Total Commander" does the trick? There is a free Demo Version available. TC helped me out a lot of times when nothing else worked...
First you need to run s2img (not sure about the name) it is part of the CM tree. After that you can mount it as a loopback device.
out/host/linux-x86/bin/simg2img system.img system.img.raw
mount -o loop system.img.raw /mnt
already done from beginning first Rom was out....
use Android Kitchen

No custom rom for the moment. Mike said that he made a recovery mode, let's see what will happen in the next version and if it will be possible at that moment.

In fact, you can mod the current firmware if you know what to do... I activated the software keys on mine (you know, the home, back, applist). You just have to mount the img file, or use adb and you can try to change things.

Mounting the img file needs Linux (you need something like mount -t ext2 -o loop polishblood_Nightlyi1.img ../the_folder_you_created_for_mountpoint) but if you just want to make smaller modifications (eg. replacing one apk, or editing some configfile) adb on Windows is enough. If you use my kernel then you will have write access to /system, too.
As a "proof of concept" I "ported" a firmware from Galaxy S (AOKP). You can experiment with it, just replace the polisblood_Nightly1.img (and preferably replace data.img and cache.img with the original ones.)
Here you are:

WinHex can open and extract files/folders from *.img ...

But for starting research WinHex is enough.

There are no such tools... You can find scripts to extract the initramfs but that's all. You have to compile your kernel to make real changes.

I've been wanting to try the kitchen out to see if I can try deodexing and zipaligning etc on the stock touchwiz ROM I'm running.
Do you think it would work? (despite it being discontinued)
yes it works still, works on ics & jellybean (i use it myself to deodex and zipalign)

Yes dxixda kitchen works but you will need to add another file with gs3 parameters in the edify_defs folder with name m0..still the updater-script does not work . It gives me errors in the installing boot.img stage.. . Anyways you can use the kitchen to create your rom and then package your rom manually using updater-script and update-binary from some other working rom.. Then sign it..
If you or anyone finds a solution to that problem do let us know..

Deodexing will work just fine..no probs..some times you might get an error with one or two apps..just use the option to deodex a single app and you will be good to go..
:good:
Edit:
Most important change the api level to 16 before deodexing..
just make a copy of your zipped rom, drop it into the working folder, deodex the files you want to and then pull those files out of the working folder and drop them into the original rom zip folder (minus the original odexed files)
no need to change anything, no need to drop new files in or mess with update script
as you will use your existing update script/meta inf folder blah blah blah, it means you can say yes to the mods the kitchen wants to make as you will only be taking the deodexed files from there, nothing else
(does that make sense? - im guessing you will ignore this anyway like my previous post))

Nah, I basically said "f*ck it and deleted the whole thing.
Gonna let someone else deal with zipaligning, deodexing and all that.

Sorry for dragging out an old thread but I thought I would have a go with this. I have the kitchen installed, I have put I9300XXDLI5_I9300OXADLI5_I9300XXDLI5_BTU.zip in the original_update and have the m0 file in tools/edify_defs
I then try and extract the ROM but I get an error Error: No system folder found!
How can I not even get started? I must be missing something basic here!

IIRC, the archive file must be a tar archive containing at least a system.img.

Can't I start with the ODIN file of the leaks? It must have a system image in it? Where do you start with this? I thought a whole flashable ROM would be ideal.

Extract the tar file and put the system.ext4.img and boot.img in the update folder.. Then Dxixda kitchen will recognize it..

Oh yeah, I forgot, the system.img must be coverted from yaffs img to an ext4 file. I believe the utility is called ext2fs (or something like it)
Dsixda's tool should provide that program anyhow.
Well I unzipped the ROM and untarred the md5 and then it at least got me started. I am now just working out what I can do and what I need to get. Thanks for your help.
[edit]Well I built the ROM and tried both the update and updater scripts but both fail. Will go and re-read the help. [/edit]

My Answer is for kagouro - Becouse i Don't see your post when I write.
If Your Phone is dedected in adb you can use logcat (adb logcat in windows cmd) if phone don't dedected in adb - flash recovery via fastboot, join in recovery , instal working rom and found bad files in rom (try add modyfication singly - first root, second busybox etc - in this metod you can see whad mod don't work - probably stupid method but work :cyclops

Kitchen will replace certain necessary parts of your ROM if it isn't compatible with the kitchen, it puts them back when you compile. When you compiled your ROM did you take the guided option? Also, and probably the first thing I should have asked, is your phone compatible with kitchen?

OK, just for giggles try this, take the meta-inf folder from a rom you know works and using 7zip replace the one in your rom. Let me know if that helped at all:beer:

Hello!
Can someone explain to me what differences are between these roms? (see attachements):
I have MT6755 device and it's stock ROM has inside a boot.img, system.new.dat, system.patch, META-INF, etc..
And then I found a device which ROM has inside just boot.img, META-INF and system folder.
What's the difference?
If I want to port a custom rom, does my device need to have in a custom rom these files(system.new.dat, system.patch...) too, or can I use a "structure" of the ROM zip with just boot.img and system?
As far as i know You just need only System,boot.img and meta-inf also data if you wish to add an app as user

I am trying to build a TWRP version for the SM-J530F following this guide by Dees_Troy.
This is my first time trying to build a recovery, so I could use some help.
It would be great if someone could tell me or help me writing the Boardconfig.mk as I am not sure if I got everythingright and everythinh what is needed.
The recovery.fstab should be correct , although I am not sure for the usb partition. The files I am using for building are in the attachments.
Last and most important thing for me to start to build would be if someone can reach me out a proper firmware or whatever i need to put in the /device directory of my build environment.
I have tried sammobile.com/SM-J530F and some other site I can't find anymore but I could not get the .img unzipped by 7zip out of the md5 files to mount(tried on Win and Linux) . Any hint on that?
I am building on a Virtual Box on a Win10 machine running Linux Mint.
Thanks in advance!
