Hi,
Is there anyway to extract the rom with extension ofp to install it using QFIL or QPST? I can't find anywhere how to do it :'(.
Thank you!
I have the same problem, messed up my RMX2170 and still unable to flash due to not being able to install PDANet (cant run system, bad flash), but I did learn something, you can use a tool called MCT OFP Extractor. Be careful tho, sometimes it comes with virus.

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

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

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)?
I am looking for ways that i can capture an android rom (.img file) and restore it to other same devices by using Rockchip Batch Tool 1.7
Here is my situation:
We have lot of android devices need to be deployed (MK 902). The original rom was 4.2 and I use Rockchip Batch Tool 1.7 to reload a rooted 4.4.2 img file. then I installed some APPs we needed. I dont want to go through app installation on all devices. So I am looking for a way that i can capture the img file after all APPs installed, then later on i can only use that Rockchip Tool to restore my img into rest of devices, just like Windows image restore.
I did some researches but didnot find any easy way to do so. looks like i have to unpack the image, modify it then repack it again. ....... I dont know how to modify the img file so i am looking for an easy way to do this.
Anyone knows any App or easy way?
Guys, please help. I tried everything with Flash Tools and nothing. There are a few Russian sites that claim to have rooted it, but my Russian is simply zero.
Anyone?
Bootloader is locked too.
Your help will be much appreciated.
Do you still need root ? i kinda find a way how we can root every chinese phone if there is SP_Flash_Tool package for them.
how: ?
download : "HOMTOM-HT20-Pro-Android_6.0-R15-20180302"
unrar, inside are 21 file (atlest for me) , (dont delete original boot.img, make copy somwhere else, then delete it from homtomp package folder)
Then copy boot.img to your phone
download magisk manager, instal it, open magisk manager, press instal, chose Patch Boot Image File.
patched file need to be in downloads as patched_boot.img, copy it to HOMTOM-HT20-Pro-Android_6.0-R15-20180302 folder
rename it to boot.img (original boot.img alredy backuped in different location), replace original boot.img with patched boot.img .
use SP_Flash_Tool , you can flash all, or chose only boot.img (i used firmware upgrade, but if it not work, use download only)
then you shuld be able to instal magisk manager and acces root. Tested mydelf with homtom ht20 pro, all works, can spoof pokemons etc.
I am looking for flash file Homtom HT20 with android 7.0 or higher. Any help?
Hi. I am a newbie in flashing phones. I am having a Lenovo A850. I was planning to flash it to Android Marshmallow (CynogenMod) . It was really hard to find the ROM. Somehow I managed to find one here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/le...rom-unofficial-cyanogenmod-13-lenovo-t3724018 . Once I downloaded it, I noticed that it is in RAR format. I tried entering CWM in my phone, and the RAR file doesn't show up. CWM probably does not support flashing RAR files.
What should I do now?

What you do for a quick fix is to open the .rar file on your computer using a software like winrar, or 7zip. Then compress it using the software as a .Zip file then you can flash it easy as that.
Doing this is changing the file format all correctly with correct conversions so it should be alright. But be aware that this is a quick fix which I use and have success with. Not sure if it would work for you But it should, if it doesn't don't hit me ~ QAQ
Note that this is possible as well on phones using file manager with inbuilt rar,win support
Hi,
Long story:
This is not a question about a specific device, although it involves one (A95X MAX) which has made it extremely difficult to modify. I have a ROM that I want to install, but it is essentially only a system.img file in a RAR file which is only accompanied by a file SECURE_BOOT_SET. The stock recovery doesn't know how to use RAR files and, if I unpack the system.img & SECURE_BOOT_SET onto an SD card, stock recovery doesn't know how to handle that. Stock recovery just wants a zip file. (I can't use USB to send ADB commands to the box or use the Amlogic burning ROM tool. I can't get USB communications going, though the USB cable supplies power.)
Examining a TWRP.zip I find a relatively simple structure that I think should be able to get my system.img onto my TV box. It looks as though I just need an updater.script buried in a sub-directory off META-INF with the system.img in the zip's root directory, so, the updater.script...
Short version:
If I only put this command
package_extract_file("system.img", "/dev/block/system");
into the updater.script and reconstruct a system.zip with my desired system.img is this sufficient to flash the system.img?
And another (hopefully simple) issue, do I need to sign the zip? If so, how do I do it? (Google has magically pointed me to how to sign a zip file.)
Thanks!

maybe a stupid question but is the "System.img" purely the system partition or is that the entire firmware just called system.img?
the "SECURE_BOOT_SET" file suggests its the entire firmware and not just the system.img in which case "USB Burning tool 2.1.6.8" will do the job

Not a stupid question. I'm pretty much in the dark. You may be right that it is the entire firmware. I have no way of seeing inside the package, but a developer elsewhere suggested I take the line of restructuring the package with Simg2img and dd it into the system partition. I renamed it system.img to try to restructure it with a version of Simg2img. And SECURE_BOOT_SET contains nothing readable, if it contains data for the install at all. The package containing these two files looks like no full firmware installation I've seen.
I cannot establish USB communications with this box (it doesn't behave like other S905x2 boxes in circulation, though it seems to have the same central hardware; no-one seems to be doing work on the box and there's no technical support), which makes the USB Burning Tool useless, as I understand it.
your system.img isnt a true system.img, its the entire firmware, which is also a .img file that has several other .img files inside it, this includes the proper system.img , boot.img and recovery.img etc.
i have the A95X Max and i have used USB Burning tool to flash firmwares to it.
Install USB Burning tol 2.1.6.8.
Go to whichever folder you installed USB burning tool in and create a new folder called "license" and put the the "secure_boot_set" file in the "license" folder.
start usb burning tool, select your firmware (.img) then hook the A95X Max to the pc via the back USB connection while pressing the reset/recovery button (hidden in the 3.5mm socket) and then insert power cable.
should pop up on USB Burning tool. press start.
Note: make sure the is nothing else in the USB slots while flashing or the HDD slot.
