I can't use it since I don't have a system.dat file. I only have system.img file.

Oh , I thought you were running Ubuntu , because with Ubuntu you can mount the system.img with a command and browse it with the file explorer as if it was an USB removable disk.

Abhi,
is this what you referring to?
Use NANDROID backup instead of FTF. Cooking ROM from FTF is very lengthy procedure.

Copy "System.yaffs2.img" file from your memory card CWM backup folder to your PC local drive and extract it using "unyaffs.exe" for that give command "unyaffs system.yaffs2.img". It will extract your system folders and files. After extracting complete delete "lost-found" and "sd" folder if present.

Thanks i did that already ..but kitchen needs system.img file ?? how to get that ?? I dont want to extract ..but find system.img
Use the system.img from a nandroid back up is easiest way to start. Just copy to working directory from SD card

Arey yaar why you need system.img! Create new folder in kitchen and give it name as WORKING_XXX and put these system folders and files which you have extracted from system.yaffs2.img and also put the META-INF folder and Kernel (boot.img) in your WORKING_XXX folder. After that start DSIXDA kitchen and change the updater-script into update-script. Now you can able to modify your ROM as you want. After your modification complete change the update-script to updater-script. Go to META-INF folder and edit updater-script and remove following line :
assert(package_extract_file("boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img"),
write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot"),
delete("/tmp/boot.img"));

Now select 99 build your ROM. Thats it!

This needs Linux, as written in the Guide. But yes, installing Linux through VirtualBox in Windows will do the trick, on the other hand if you ask.
@ OP, this is a tool for windows. Check this out, and see whether it works.

Hello!
Can someone explain to me what differences are between these roms? (see attachements):
I have MT6755 device and it's stock ROM has inside a boot.img, system.new.dat, system.patch, META-INF, etc..
And then I found a device which ROM has inside just boot.img, META-INF and system folder.
What's the difference?
If I want to port a custom rom, does my device need to have in a custom rom these files(system.new.dat, system.patch...) too, or can I use a "structure" of the ROM zip with just boot.img and system?
As far as i know You just need only System,boot.img and meta-inf also data if you wish to add an app as user

So if I want to port a ROM from device that has (system.new.dat, etc..), I need only to extract system.new.dat to get system folder and just use it?

I extract system from spflash (to make .Img into a folder), and try to add to my meta-inf and boot.img and it doesn't boot... the script is correct, I'm sure of it, it just formats system, and drops the system folder to /system, but it still doesn't boot.. what am I doing wrong? I've made stock based rooms for other devices but the stock rom was already in system folder type(I didn't have to extract system.img) and I guess it's something to do to the way I extract system.img.. how can I fix it?
Hi.
Did you convert the sparse image? If you extract the img without converting it, then it will not boot. Use simg2img to convert system.img.

Ps. Please attach script.

I converted to ext4, then from ext4 to a folder.. Packed everything and flashed, still didn't boot (I used the unedited system.img), do I have to change the boot.img to make unsecured or it doesn't matter?
