you need a valid update.zip file or use any of the templates that are available all over.
now extract the system files from tar file, extract the boot.img and copy them to the update.zip file(delete the older files in the zip before)

The steps can vary somewhat depending on the device. I'm assuming it's some sort of a Chinese device, most likely a tablet, with the uboot file... What's wrong with just having the nandroid? It's not like you can't share that with others if you're needing to.

Its not about sharing. I've just bricket my phone. But i had a nandroid backup. I restored it but nothing happened. So i made a cwm flashable zip using kitchen and included only system.ext4 file and boot.img file. and i stuck at boot loop. I think i'm doing something wrong. i just wanted to ask if uboot.img is essential for cwm flashable zip?

Well, if a nandroid didn't work, then not likely that making a flashable CWM zip with the same files would make any difference. You might just need to flash the stock firmware and start over.

How to convert efs folder to img or tar file?

Guys can I convert efs folder to an img or tar file. Because I've flashed a custom rom without backing up my efs in a img or tar file.
Does anyone knows how to convert it guys?
Makes no difference what format the backup is, as long as you make one before you flash.
You mean. I can convert it to a flashable zip and flash it on recovery.?
You can do what ever you like, provided the efs wasn't corrupt before you made the backup.

create .img file from directory?

Is it possible to create an .img file from a directory? Lets say a system.img from /system?
Or userdata.img from the userdata?
To have some kind of backup and easily restore the system with fastboot flash ....

Is there any difference?

Good day!
Hi!
In creating flashable zip of /system...
What I've read is to extract system.img from phone and unpack it (convert to .ext4 then extract using some tools) then make it flashable zip.
Is it possible to directly copy the entire /system of the phone and make it a flashable zip?
(Without extracting system.img of the device...)
Thanks!
