How to make yaffs2 img on windows - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody
I'm new on this big forum, so this my first post...
I have made a backup for my chinese tablet (MT6582) by using MTK droid tools, and I have installed a recovery for it and I installed a rom but it didn't work. So I want now to restore the first stock rom by installing the backup with the SP flash tool ... I have all the wanted files (img) just the system.img file because I have just the system folder. So my question is: How to convert(pack) the system folder to a yaffs2img file. :good:

up ; I'm waiting your answer

please help me

No, this isnt good. I need a full rom dump of mtk6575. Boot.img, recovery.img, preloadet, uboot etc etc... i search on google but i foubf nothing fir emmc partiton of 6575. Only for mtd partitoton if 6573 but it isnt good for 6575. I m looking for it again

You can try to ADB not really sure if it'll work but it'll worth it
You can use this To make the backup
adb backup -apk -shared -all -f C:\backup20111230.ab
And this of you need to restore it
adb restore C:\backup20111230.
By the way I thanked you by mistake
i think he is referring to partitions, rom backup, firmware, etc not applications backup
If you have gained root access, don't you have a recovery mode?
In recovery mode it is possible to make a full backup.
Make full rom dumb for mtk 6575

[Q] Huawei G700 EMUI 1.8 B124

Hello
here i am posting here because i cant post on Miscellaneous Android Development , how ever i think i post there before while working on B5512
I Just got new G700 it came with B115 middle east channel , phone is good but as a start is there is a update i must ask my self is root ready , and CWM for sure so i start the digging
@chamaruco thank you for your great thread which saved and helped many people
now i got a file and i think you were looking for it ""G700-U10_V100R001C00B124CUSTC432D001_Firmware_Portugal_Channel-Others_4.2.1_EMUI 1.8_05021LMW.zip"" it contain usb upgrade and sd upgrade with drv and flash tool
i notice EMUI 1.8 not 1.6 which i saw for example a permission manager with it on P6 is that here in that rom too ?
is that rom improved than mine b115 phone is good for first look but
(in B115)
1-camera quality is strange i dont mean bad but it look very strange it is like very poor on quality
2-in call volume is too low in my opinion all " in test mode"
Question now did any one get that update "EMUI 1.8 B124" can tell is there is any improvements ?!
Question am i able to flash CWM image directly with flash tool to save some annoying procedures ?!
a member here provide flasher and cwm.img and orginal recovery.img
i did not work with the phone yet need to shift data from old phone remove ext2 part and prepare for change , and feeling lost here
want to strike it all once
i will upload "EMUI 1.8 B124" soon as it came from a private server
any suggestions are welcome
When you install 1.8 you will notice there is only a tap error from uploader..it is a 1.6 emui. That's all.

But my mobile does not boot into CWM recovery mode as i have seen in my previous Qmobile A8 it always restarts in the defualt recovery mode which only give options to "1. reboot, 2. update from SDcard, 3. update from cashe, 4. wipe/delete user data and wipe/delete cache and in the last there is a calibarate TP, AND OFF COURSE THESE ALL ARE THE ANDROID BUILTIN RECOVERY STEPS NOT OF THE CWM
And off course there is not any file or folder named update.app in the downloaded .zip/extracted file. "as i have mentioned above the folder contains a folder named META-INF and three img files named as boot cust and system while a .bin file named logo too.
THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND HELP.

So after I select the Reworked scatter file there is only the sec_ro partition checked to flash. So after flashing it do I now select the previous scatter file and then flash everything (including preloader)?

[Q] Problem with using android kitchen. Help needed.

I had been trying to make a custom ROM or porting a ROM for Micromax Canvas A 96. It has only one custom ROM found in 'needrom' site. As the stock ROM is in a format suitable for SP Flashtool , I wanted to make a CWM flashable ROM in zip format, so that porting will be easier. For this purpose I need 'METAINF' Folder with updater script. So, after searching I came across a guide on 'Converting boot.img +system.img' to CWM flashable zip ROM. I followed it and used android kitchen and got a ROM in zip in the output folder which I re-named (during working on 'cygwin' window). Now I checked it by extracting with 'Express zip' windows software, and it says " The zip is corrupted or encrypted or empty or in an incompatible format'. Now, I do not know how to go about it. Please help me.

How to Flash a ROM with boot.img and System folder only?

HI! Is there any way to flash a custom rom using PC?
SP FLash tool needs a scatter file
but my ROM doesnt have any.
I tried to make my own scatter file but I cant find the system.img
The system.img is a folder
how can i convert the system folder to system.img?
PLS HELP
Ive done this but it was year's ago while making an odin flashable firmware for sgh-t599. Sorry to say I can't remember the procedure but I used guides so the info is out there.
You'll need Linux, and you must know the size of system partition and if it need to be raw img format or sparse img format.
With the right commands these img's can also be extracted straight from a working device.

how to flash a stock ROM that was backup using GSM Aladdin

Hi guys
I want to ask something
I just backup my stock ROM using GSM Aladdin (using the read flash feature.also i ticked save as scatter) and it completed successfully so i went to the folder where it was saved (something like MT6580xxx) and i saw .bin files like boot , system , preloader etc
So my point is they are all .bin files (excluding the scatter.txt)
And i want to flash that to my phone using sp flash tool so do i need to make the .bin files to .img files or can i use directly? ? Or is there any other step ? Please help
