hi all!!! can someone help me how to repack NON-HLOS.bin?!!!
i extract NON-HLOS.bin and i see image folder and many files in this folder, so i change some files and i need to pack all this files back to .BIN ( NON-HLOS.bin)
As far i know you can't just build it from a folder, you need to mount the old one and replace needed files.

i haven't manually from the command line using the tools built a system.img file from scratch but i know in linux you're able to mount an already existing system.img and extract out the files.
Code:
mount -o loop -t ext4 /home/user/system.img /mnt/system
not sure the command or tools to create the system.img ... perhaps yaffs would work for this? the only way i've created system.img files is through using aosp and cm7. looking at aosp/cm7 is prob the best place to start in answering this question as they have scripts and tools to create the system.img file
hope that helps point in the right direction!
Hello!
As I'm currently learning about ROMs etc, I feel its important to be able to convert sin->img and then extract on my own.
The problem is however, I haven't been able to do that with the Xperia S system.sin.
I know that the .img is ext4 and not yaffs, but stuff I've tried without luck;
sin2img - errors out
aIUP - gives bad block no matter what
sin2img.py under ubuntu 10.04 - completes, but the output file seems to be corrupt (won't mount)
flashtool->sineditor->dump - same output as sin2img.py. ext2explore can extract the apps folder but nothing else. build.prop comes out corrupt
I redid the sin2img.py to .exe and ran under windows, produces same file as sin2img.py, still not working.
I've seen a couple of extracted filesystems from Xperia S, but I want to find out how they got extracted. PMs often get ignored or people are just too busy to respond so I ask here instead.
I've tried following firmwares;
LT26i_6.1.A.0.452_NCB.ftf
LT26_6.1.A.0.452_Generic_CH_1257-3740_.ftf
LT26_4.0.4 _6.1.A.0.452.ftf
Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!
I'm also encountering this problem.
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
If someone could provide a successfully converted system.sin to .img, I could look at what goes wrong at my computer. And I'm talking about system.sin from ICS firmware.
Else the only thing I can think of is that all the system.sins I've tried have been corrupt or something likewise, since userdata.sin converts just fine
Bumping this because I have the same issue with the Xperia S system.sin and Xperia ion.
Getting an error such as this in the dmesg | tail after doing the "mkdir system; mount -t ext4 -o loop system.img system" command when trying to make a prerooted system image
EXT4-fs (loop0): bad geometry: block count 262144 exceeds size of device (140642 blocks)

He already mentioned ext2explore and that didn't work.
Sorry to revive this old thread. But I'm having the same issue and hopefully a solution has been reached within the last 2 years?
really don't understand what your guys talking about but im using winrar to extract ftf firmware file, then use flashtool to extract .sin file, then use ext4_unpacker to extract ext4 image file, thats all.

My Flashtool is just null when you try to open a .sin file. So something isn't right lol.... Nevermind.. I think it really WAS a corrupt file. Tried fresh and it is good now

Hi bro, what did you do to make it work? I've tried many times with different firmwares, extracting the system.sin with Winrar, then Extract data with sin editor in flashtool, and when I use the ext4_unpacker with the system.ext4 file, it says "Unknown file format". :crying:
In case my files are corrupted, how can I validate that? Please any help is really appreciated. Thanks!

Well... I am not exactly sure what causes that 100% but I think in some cases there might be some kind of encryption or something that is not allowing it to fully decode. But if you have tried many of them, I think something must be going on on your side. Maybe try unpacking with something besides winrar, etc. Also make sure you have the latest and greatest sin editor?
Are you able to successfully extract the data without errors in your sin editor?

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.

UPDATED 2016-08-12 I HIGHLY RECOMMEND A BETTER METHOD FOUND HERE:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/remix/remix-os/guide-using-jides-remountrw1-method-to-t3431595
FEWER CHANCES OF ERROR :laugh:
UPDATED 2016-08-09 TO INCLUDE 32 BIT DIRECTIONS MANY THANKS TO @ireMaN FOR INPUT
THIS IS MODIFIED NOW FOR BOTH 32 AND 64 BIT!
THIS IS ALSO ONLY FOR HDD INSTALLATIONS
Fellow Remixers:
As many have found out, version 3 of RemixOS doesn't allow changes to the system. This is because instead of a system.img it now uses a system.sfs. For most of us there is no advantage to this, and it makes it impossible to perform even simple mods to the build.prop.
So we must convert that pesky system.sfs to a system.img and substitute a modified initrd.img.
There has been so much interest in this that I have tried to write a guide. I hope it is accurate, but I encourage feedback to improve it. EDIT 2016-08-03: WORKS FOR 3.0.102 ALSO
EDIT: 2016-08-09 WORKS FOR 3.0.103 ALSO
Here it goes:
ALL OF THIS IS DONE FROM WINDOWS. From File Explorer, navigate to your partition with RemixOS folder. Note the drive letter; mine was d:
1 Open the RemixOS folder on that drive; you should see a system.sfs file.
2 First you need to download the correct (32 or 64) modified initrd.img from here:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B3gcDbDvV4MkTm5raUZRZXl4NkE
3 Use File Explorer to navigate to the Downloads folder; you should see a file named initrd_(32 or 64)_rw_3.0.101.img
4 Copy that file into the RemixOS folder on the drive where you installed Remix.
5 Open the RemixOS folder; you should see both the original initrd.img and the new initrd_(32 or 64)_rw_3.0.101.img
6 Rename the initrd.img to oldinitrd.img to save it in case you need it
7 Rename the initrd_(32 or 64)_rw_3.0.101.img to initrd.img
8 Next convert that system.sfs file to a system.img file
9 Using your web browser, download and install RMXTools from http://forum.xda-developers.com/remix/remix-os/rmxtools-remix-os-data-img-t3308158
10 Then in File Explorer, navigate to Downloads folder and extract the RMXTools zip. (EDIT: You may need 7zip to extract it)
11 Then navigate to the newly created RMXTools folder and navigate to the bin64 folder
12 Open a command window by using shift&right mouse button and selecting the Open command window here
13 Assuming that your RemixOS folder is on drive c: type unsquashfs.exe -d c:\temp c:\RemixOS\system.sfs
If your drive letter is e: for example, you would substitute e: for c: (EDIT: Do not change the -d as it is part of the command)
You should see it writing blocks for a few seconds
This should create a new system.img file on drive d: in folder temp
14 Now you need to navigate again to the drive with the RemixOS folder. You should see your newly created system.img in the temp folder
15 Copy it into the RemixOS folder
16 Now open the RemixOS folder; you should see your new system.img alongside the original system.sfs.
17 Rename the system.sfs to oldsystem.sfs to keep it in case you need it again
OK now time to reboot into Remix
You should now have writable system
Hope this helps
If it works for you please hit the "thanks" and if you're REALLY happy then I can always use coffee money
NOTE: TO TAKE OTA UPDATE YOU NEED TO DO THE Following FROM WINDOWS:
A In File Explorer, navigate to the RemixOS folder
B Find and rename the initrd.img to initrd_(32 or 64)_rw_3.0.101.img depending on your version
C Find and delete system.img
D Rename oldsystem.sfs to system.sfs
E Reboot ti RemixOS and download the update and select the Reboot option.
F After the OTA is installed and you are at the desktop you need to repeat steps 6 through 17 above
Any suggestions to make this easier please let me know. Please PM me and I will answer your questions.
Thanks a lot... Will try and reply you soon.... But I'm sure it works

Thanks a lot. Not only you are a very helpful person , you have lots of patience. Thanks for all your inputs and guidance. I checked using CPU-Z and find all sensors are working including rotation sensor. I alos see that the new build.prop has the line ro.remixos.box is set to flase. But still my surface pro does not auto rotate to portrait mode. I am also not able to force it into portrait mode. Can you help please?

Yea, stickmount seems to need the [updated] superSU su binary; so either system.img rw or systemless root would do [also the build.prop edit mentioned above might be an alternative to stickmount but editing build.prop needs system rw anyway].
Addendum; if anyone is using my 32bit su.img; you need to make a /su/xbin_bind folder and reboot before SuperSU will update the binary

You're very welcome my pleasure
I'm at a loss as to how to get this working on a USB install on my system. Are people using hard drive installs or USB flash drive ones? I'm using a 64gb Sandisk Extreme flash drive.
1st off - using the Windows tool that comes in the installer from Jide's website (downloaded file I have is Remix_OS_for_PC_Android_M_64bit_B2016072603.zip ) to "install" RemixOS onto the flash drive works flawlessly but after that I'm unable to see any other volumes other than one called REMIX_OS which is not a system volume. I've formatted the flash drive 4 times already and redid the installation each time. Each time the install is perfectly bootable but in terms of being able to boot into windows and brows the RemixOS folder to modify system files there is no change, I'm unable to see all volumes on the flash drive. I only see one volume while in windows and that one appears to be an SD CARD (It's called REMIX_OS and only has an Android and Lost folder in it) rather than the system volume for Android.
If I insert the flash drive into my Macbook I'm able to see two volumes, the volume called REMIX_OS I referred to earlier and another volume called REMIXOSSYS which does have the system files in it (with the initrd.img and system.sfs that need to be replaced) . .
So after using the RMXTools on my Windows machine to create a system.img file (which ends up ballooning to 2.6gb, is that the right size?) and downloading the requisite initrd_rw_3.0.101.img and renaming both original files on the REMIXOSSYS volume (using my Mac) and copying the new ones onto the flash drive volume I'm able to boot into RemixOS on my PC normally.
Everything works fine until I actually try to edit build prop as a test at which point I'm unable to. The system itself operates just fine otherwise but system still isn't writeable.
I'm not quite sure why others are easily able to do everything they need to do on their PC's using windows explorer to modify the system files and I'm not. I tried it on both my home and work PCs and the result is the same. Nonetheless I'm thinking that since all that is supposed to be required to make system writeable is to replace the initrd.img and system.sfs with the modified initrd.img and a system.img file then it really shouldn't matter if I do it using a Mac or a PC . . i'm confused at this point lol.
Any thoughts?
