Hi Dears,
I have extracted the partitions from an LG K10 using the method posted here.
Now I got all mmcblk0 partition in bin files format but I can manage how to mount this files or extract the data.
I tried from windows and from linux but no luck.
If I inspect the bin file in linux with an Hex editor I see a lot of data inside but inspecting the same file in windows only 0´s show.
Can someone help me in this ?
Tks.

I don't know, where did I get it, so it may be outdated or something.
mkyaffs for windows
Here is mkyaffs2 exe file compiled for Windows using Cygwin.
Archive contains makeyaffs and unyaffs files and needed dll's.
P.S. I tryed to use that compiled "mkyaffs"-file to create system.img and img-file really was created, but when I tryed to unpack that system.img (using unyaffs that works normally) I just got "OK"-message from unyaffs and nothing more! No one folder was created! So I think my compiled mkyaffs doesn't work properly. It's creating corrupted img's. :silly:
So the most reliable and right way to pack folders into img's is use mkyaffs on Linux or virtual machine (with booted Linux of course).
P.S.S. I found tool named Yaffey, but I don't know how to get it create system.img

Thank you so much! It's what software I look for exactly.
Is there anyway to convert my extracted system files to .img from computer?
Hello,
I am having some serious trouble modifying a ROM. I download the entire ROM in the form of an .img, and thanks to a reRepacker am able to unpack the contents of the rom, each part into individual .img files. I then use file ext4 explorer to open system.img, then save as an ext4. I then use ext2 explorer to open the now ext4 system.img, and I save the contents in a file folder within the unpacked folder. I make all of the edits I need, and then use WinRar to "add to archive' the file folder as an .img. Note that it compresses the size of the file bu about 40%. I then throw the dump folder into the repacker and out spits the new "modified" rom ready to be flashed to the device. I then use the batch tool to "flash" the compute stick. Flash being a relative term because it does not get past the boot image. EVEN IF I EDIT NOTHING and just convert to ext4 to ext2 and then to .img it still won't boot. Maybe this is because I am going from an ext2 to an image? When the file is supposed to be ext4? I'm not quite sure, hence why I ask here. Anyone have any ideas?
I have a Huawei Y536A1 US version. I am attempting to port the Y536A1 Canada Rogers version as it appears to have no carrier apps within it. I installed Cygwin and dsixda' Android Kitchen but the optiuon to extract the system.img file (ext4) does not work. I found the post for installing perl, split_update, ext4 unpacker exe, and huawei finder. Following the steps, I can unpack the system.img and extract the build.prop file. However I am totally lost at how to either edit the Canadian build.prop or how to replace it with the US version. It is simple enough to replace any .img file within the output folder, but I can't figure out how to replace or edit files inside the .img files once they are unpacked into the EXT4 unpacker. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, if I am going about this incorrectly, any info on redirecting my efforts to be used with a different tool would also be appreciated.

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.
