I need a dump of /system/lib and /system/lib64, if anyone is kind enough to provide i would appreciate it.
dump it trough adb yourself? (from the current phone)
or better way would be to just download your stock/nonstock rom
and just extract from there

I don't own this device, I need dump for technical reasons. What you said by extracting is a good point but I can't get the system.img to open because its EroFS and windows doesn't know how to work with this filesystem.
google extracting android rom .
mostly linux tools though

Android is based on Linux(and kind of java also) so you would need Linux and java knowledge also, if you want to customize the ROM throughly.

Simple custom ROM, yes. But it is only MY IMO. You NEED Linux knowledge, you need some android knowledge, and you need to understand what are you doing to make really OUTSTANDING ROM.

Can you explain what linux knowledge you talking about ?
For example, in your v4, i saw remount tweak, and there was JOURNALISM removing for ext4 partition. But you noticed that it is only for /data /system? Our partitions are in yaffs2, so we don't have journal.
Knowledge comes with experimentation ... keep it up dude
Does anybody have the Apk for this?
thanks!
why ?
need to install it on my prime
why do you assume it will work?

You can try to install "TB" or "My backup" and do some backups. After that, copy what you want from backup.
Good luck!
For install on another ta let. It is not possible.

Video player most likely won't work- it seems that there are other files in system it depends on ("native linux" binaries and libs)
For other apps- can't say for sure, I don't know how much they depend on framework
if we can get the Apk,then we can determine if it work or not.....

One note- ICS firmwares use modified/incompatible squashfs header which unsquashfs can't handle. Just mount unpacked .suqshfs as loop if such problem occurs
I extracted the code for the most Archos apps awhile ago. I can tell you they all rely on Archos frameworks(starting with mediacenter which handles video+music and ending up with a systemmonitor), so you need to get that on your Prime first. And you shouldn't forget you can get some signing problems when compiling them.
P.S. G8 apks are more easy, but they all still use archos frameworks.
Hi can someone help me to unpack
G850FXXU2ANHD_G850FOXX2ANH7_G850FXXU1ANHD_HOME.tar

Maybe "Total Commander" does the trick? There is a free Demo Version available. TC helped me out a lot of times when nothing else worked...
First you need to run s2img (not sure about the name) it is part of the CM tree. After that you can mount it as a loopback device.
out/host/linux-x86/bin/simg2img system.img system.img.raw
mount -o loop system.img.raw /mnt
already done from beginning first Rom was out....
use Android Kitchen

post deleted, moved to correct thread.
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?

Lineage has a script for that on every device repo. You have to be on stock. I don't know if your device is supported though.
Manually you can always copy the blobs on system/vendor/lib and system/lib .

1. Maybe someone has uploaded them to the internet. This is not weird, is usual to find system dumps out there.
2. Extracting them from your stock ROM (while having it installed).
