Those aren't for android though

I'm afraid that I don't think there is one. You're probably stuck using a computer.
Or you could try to get unrar (linux command line) running on your phone and then do this from the command line
Code:
unrar e -p{password} file.rar
Let me know if you get unrar compiled on your phone

Upload the .rar and click the button
It will upload it to the site and then decompress it for you, then you can download the decompressed file and voila, bobs your uncle, your shiny file is ready for use.
Updates by me.

quick search in market, gave me Unrar from Twanky Deuce Software

I use AndroZip for zips and rars, works well

Unrar is closed source, can't get it compiled for ARM.
Unrar and Androzip don't support passworded files.

.img file is a zip file (more or less). Use 7zip for that.

You could use dxisida's android kitchen to do all tasks, you put the system.img and boot.img in the 'original' folder and then make it a update.zip rom through the kitchen.

if u wanna extract system.img then use dsixda kitchen.
put the img file in update original update folder then go to cygwin and choose make a working folder from rom.
it will identify your img file and then give an opt to extract it.

[Completed] Need an update to my RK3066 that isn't in RAR type but rather ZIP.

i need an update to my RK3066 to 4.4.4 kitkat that isn't in RAR type but rather zip. I've downloaded a couple different ones from the Malaysk profile on XDA and then converted to zip only to have my device recognize it as a bad file. any options?

Hi !
What did you use to convert it ? The zip or rar are the same
You maybe want a zip file in order to flash it in recovery but you have downloaded a rar which isn`t recognized
Open the rar archive and use the files from inside of it , it may contain an image an you have to use that one
Good luck !

i did try and flash update w/ the rar but the tablet didn't recognize a rar ext. So i converted to a zip and the tablet stopped because it stated it was a bad file. I thought something may have messed up during the conversion and did it again but same result. I've looked everywhere for updates to 4.4.4 for this tablet but no luck. the ones that i did try and flash would open update and then abort the install.

As I said, I understand what you have tried, now please listen to me, the rar file is not a flashable zip and you cannot just convert it to zip in order to flash it, the flashable zip file results from building the ROM not converting rar to zip
Rar and zip are indeed both archives but the zip you need is a flashable zip as I mentioned above
Open that rar and tell me what you have inside
As for roms, if here on xda aren't available then contact the manufacturer's website or go deeper into Google, as far as I can see there is no ROM for your device here on xda
