Hello Everyone,
Thank you in advance for any help on this item.
I have an HTC Sensation phone which is already S-off and has CWM in it.
It also has "su" previleges in it and I was able to modify CID too.
The ROM inside it is stock ROM.
I have been reading and following several guides on how to modify default.prop for other devices. And from what I gather I have to do the following :
1. Unpack boot.img.
2. Modify default.prop.
3. And repack boot.img.
The problem here is that I tried all sorts of things only to end up failing in the "repacking" stage.
I want to modify default.prop to be able to set adb daemon (adbd) to have root previleges and eventually be able to "inject" into HTC sensation my own custom-made versions of framework.jar and other files.
Is modifying default.prop possible?
Is the method I am using correct?
Is it possible to have my own customized framework.jar inside the HTC Sensation?
I hope you guys can point me to some sites and links which can help me in what I intend to do.
Thank you all very much.
Use dsixda kitchen.
Hello Sebastian,
Thanks for your response.
I also tried to use the dsixda kitchen.
What I did was :
1. Downloaded a backup of my phone using ClockworkMod Recovery.
2. I took the boot.img file from the backup generated.
3. Unpacked boot.img using the kitchen.
4. And then repacked it using the kitchen again.
5. I then flashed the generated boot.img into the phone.
6. The phone went into a forever loop in the start up screen.
Did I do it right?
I am rechecking the notes on the kitchen again though. I might have missed something.
Thanks again.
Upload your boot.img, I'll check it. Do you use fastboot.exe to flash boot?
Hello Again,
Thanks once again for the support Sebastian.
"Upload your boot.img, I'll check it. Do you use fastboot.exe to flash boot?"
I use fastboot.exe first and then try to use the ClockworkMod Recovery Advanced option to update the "boot" only part.
I am attaching here my dsixda-kitchen generated boot.img.
This boot .img was generated with the following steps :
1. Unpack htc stock rom boot.img generated by CWM nandroid backup.
2. No changes were made in the ramdisk nor in the kernel part.
3. Repack the ramdisk and kernel using dsixda kitchen.
4. Used fastboot.exe to flash the boot part. "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
5. Wiped the cache partition of the phone.
6. Wiped the /data/dalvik-cache directory.
7. Restarted phone in normal mode.
8. Phone hanged up in startup image.
Many thanks again and more power.
In this guide I'm going to tell you about unpacking/repacking your boot(kernel),recovery.
I won't be responsible if u kill your phone and your mom beat the hell outta u.
Please do some research before trying this stuffs.
Method 1----
Put your boot or recovery.img in root/cache/here folder.
Get apktool mobile.
Open it and navigate to root folder.
Press hold on cache folder
Click on 'Get access permission(root)'
Now click on your img file
Select and click unpack all(mt6***) and bang...
U will see unpacked everything there.
And to repack click ramdisk folder and hit repack mt**** ...
Method 2---
Get unpack repack boot.img apk from google play
Put your boot.img in your SD card(default write disk)
Create a folder and name it unpack in SD CARD.
open that app and search for boot.img in SD CARD
Select it

Hey, today in this post I've discussed on the topic
"How to unpack/repack img without PC or android tools (android tool is a little complicated and sometimes doesn't works)."
So let's get started
First of all download & install 'android image studio'
1: open it and click on repack/unpack
2: select the port ROMs boot or recovery img.
3: we get two folders
a.) Split_img --->> contains kernal zimage.
b.) Ramdisk----> contains init.rc recovery. Fstab etc..
4: to delete any file long press on it and click delete
5: to import any file click on import button in right panel & select the file
6: after making desired changes. Repack the img using repack button
7: a file will be created with the name image-new.img
8: export this file using export button and select the desired location.
Congratulations you have just ported an img without PC easily.

I need more help, trying to open a .IMG boot file for Samsung s5, it gives the "No Image Supplied" error
Screenshot
Using AIS. Trying to port custom recovery but first thing I've tried is to just unpack and repack stock recovery. When repacking output of AIS is new IMG and new ramdisk. New IMG is smaller than original but from what I've read this should be okay. Flashed new IMG and attempted reboot recovery and all I got was black screen. Flashed stock recovery and it booted recovery fine. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I used AIS to open the new image it created and then kept doing file/folder comparisons on the output. I narrowed down the difference being recovery.img-ramdisk.cpio. But when I unpack with cpio the contents of the archive are the same. Additionally, I repacked the contents with cpio but it still comes up as not matching the original recovery.img-ramdisk.cpio. My device can and does make replacement recovery images using applypatch with bonus files and boot img. Any help greatly appreciated!
Hello all, I want to make a custom ROOM STOCK for Samsung devices so that it can burn in odin but all the tools (Tool Unpack Repack DAT + IMG) that create the file system.img require the file_contexts that I do not know how to get it (this is Android 4.1.2. File inside the boot)
I realized that I use the make_ext4fs file only because I do not know how it can be used by anyone who can help. I will thank him very much.::

Compile Firmware for SP Flash Tool.
Edit & Remove proprietary information from firmware for custom release.
Leave stock for stock Firmware extraction.
For Pure time consumption reasons, this guide may take me a while to complete, however the steps above should give you a rough idea of how everything is going to be written...
To start with, the information is so much at once, that I've made a video to help people go along with it...
The video is in 2 parts & in English... Please watch these first, that'll cover about everything in the steps except a few things like compilation of extracted IMG files.
The second video should be watched after the first video, so I've put that link in the description of video 1.
https://youtu.be/e2_U68EGSlY
OK... Now you've seen the instructions, you can work through extracting every partition you'll need for a firmware backup.... You don't need all of them !
After that, Copy the following files (you should now have them all ) to a new folder called Stock Firmware for SP Flash Tool ..
boot.img
cache.img
lk.img
logo.img
preloader.bin
recovery.img
secro.img
system.img
trustzone.bin or .img
userdata.img
MT*****_Android_scatter.txt
Now you need to edit the Scatter file using NotePad++ or another program that won't wreck line endings... Word pad & Notepad will wreck line endings and destroy the scatter file.
Edit the scatter file to now have the correct file names, eg.....
preloader_******_njh_gjb_.bin TO preloader.bin - The same as your copied file name.
boot_example_mt.img TO boot.img - The name of the file for boot.
Now the scatter file, Image's & Preloader should be all together...
ZIP the folder to remove empty space in .img files, Shrink the Firmware to a Zip file.....
You just need to extract the zip file and open the scatter file in SP Flash Tool v5.16+ .. Then select Download to do a firmware installation.
I will edit this guide in time, however I just wanted to get out how I do this on my MTK Device's... People keep asking me how to do it, so I released the video and this extra information for them... I don't make money on YouTube so everything here is provided free & I don't make any money from helping !!! Sorry about the terrible audio !
