search in google carliv image kitchen download use in command regular android for unpack repack when asked because our devices boot.img uses gz type compression anyway good luck
Extract boot.sin with flashtool , choose tool-unpack sin, and now you have boot.elf, and then you only extract it, results is 0 and 1 file, Extract 1 result is 1~ extract again 1~~, taada... Boot.elf now unpack but i try to port this rom is failed.
Anyone tried?....

Whenever i type unyaffs system.sin and any parameter (2036..etc)
get error !
invalid parameter!
You can't able to extract the sin file directly with unyaffs.
I can able to extract the .431
By this method:

Note:You must have flashtool v9.0.0

Hi everyone,
I'm noob here. I'm using Xperia S. And now learning mote about android.
However I have a question, how can I make boot.img from my ftf file?
Sure, I extracted the ftf, decrypt the kernel.sin into kernel.elf.
From kernel.elf, I decrypt it again and get 4 files, one image (I suppose it is kernel zImage), one ramdisk.gz, one file forgotten and another is elf.4.
Okay, now the problem comes.
The main purpose of me is to change the bootlogo of my Xperia S.
I searched for a day to change the bootlogo, most need to add the rle file into boot.img file (ramdisk).
For sure I read through the site how to unpack, edit and repack the boot image.
The kernel and ramdisk of mine are extracted from ftf but not existing custom Rom,
1. Can I directly use the mkbootimg program to create boot.img? Will it work out?
2. Do I need to aware of any parameters or setting for Xperia S? Since I worried that different devices have diff setting.
3. Is it better to make it on linux? I found mkbootimg.c in c language file but not precompiled program as tutorial, the link given is broken. Can work also?
Sorry, I'm really quite new and very noob, I tried searching and many other things, but still can't figure it out.
Hope that pros here can help me...

how did you decrypt kernel.sin ? can you explain step by step ? Im also a noob

For how to decrypt the kernel.sin, you can use Flashtool (not Sony official one)
Under Tools (perhaps I remember correctly), there is a option about decrypt SIN, and then you can choose the kernel.sin you want to decrypt.

From what i understand, u want to extract only the kernel file from the official firmware .ftf file that u have right???
here is what u gotta do.
1. first download 7zip application(google it).
2. then right-click on your .ftf file from wich u want to extract the kernel and select 7zip.
3. then select extract files and select their destination folder.
4. after extraction u should be able to see various .sin files among them u ll have ur kernel.sin.

THE FOLLOWING GUIDE IS FOR OREO IMAGES.
TO UNPACK AMLOGIC 9.0 PIE IMAGES, WATCH THIS TUTORIAL VIDEO: https://youtu.be/exDD6YOC4HU
Hey Everyone! Many people requested me on forumXperience to make a repacking/unpacking guide for Amlogic Oreo/Pie Images. So yesterday, when I had time I started to create my own windows tool for you guys to unpack and repack Amlogic Oreo/Pie Images.
You can now easily extract files in a few clicks and edit them to flash on your devices!
Very simple to use and it works great and is also faster than stock Amlogic Customization Tool which unfortunately doesn't support Oreo images.
There may be a few bugs that I am unaware of, so please let me know if you run into any problem. Later, I may add recovery and kernel unpacking option in the tools.
Thanks to Ricky for his Customisation Tools, I used his binaries for this project
The tool is pretty much open for everyone to edit and modify, it has batch scripts so you can easily edit with Notepad and learn the process of Amlogic Unpacking/Repacking manually [emoji23]
Here you can download the tool:
[Amlogic Unpacker by Nayam.zip]

it works fine. thanks.....
i was going to buy the other tool but this did the work without any money

Good to hear. This has been flying under the radar and people really didn't care about this tool. Glad to see atleast there's someone using this.
Yes it does unpack/repack oreo images but it doesn't (yet) unpack recovery and kernel which I thought were not really important for the time being. Unpacking vendor and system will do all the work if you want to mod ROMs. Kernel and Recovery modifications are really not required and can be avoided by using alternative ways.

But Image Pack Failed (Android 9 Pie)
Level 1 repack doesnt work with A95X Max.
Copy Level 1 folder into Ricky Customisation tool "tmp" folder and repack with that.
like your tool..

and with rickys tool I can only pack lvl1 when i try to repack lvl2 it dosent work .. can you please explain to me briefly how I have to do it?
Thanks

get rickys customisation tool, in the folder of ricky customisation tool, create a folder called "tmp".
Now unpack your firmware with nayams tool (both level 1 and 2) and copy the level 1 and 2 folders from the "unpacked" folder and paste them into you newly created "tmp" folder.
start rickys customisation tool, edit and repack your rom from there.
hope that make sense

I'm sorry for not explaining everything correctly.
Level 2 is unpacked after unpacking level 1.
You cannot unpack level 2 without unpacking level 1 first.
Similarly, the repack script I wrote first repacks level 2 and then repacks level 1. If you want these separated, I can provide that too.
So you need to run the scripts in order.
Run script number 1, then 2. Then make changes in level 2 folder and then run repacking script.

Thanks for confirming, I'll fix the repacking script If it's causing problems.

If Pie images aren't working, please wait for a fix. I'll try some pie images out and will update the commands

Thanks.
it does repack the firmware but after flashing the a95x max, it just hangs on the boot logo and doesnt get to the boot animation.
as said before, if i take the unpacked level 1 contents from your tool and repack with rickys tool, A95X max flashes and boots perfectly.
level 2 to level 1 repack doesnt seem to be an issue, purely level 1 to img repack.

I tried it that way. Unfortunately, there is always an error message "Failed to repack system, default will be used"..
The image will be packed correctly, but my changes will be overwritten again.
Do you use AMLogicTools_V6.0.0?
