The Tools can open fastboot img file!
You can unpack img file!
But the language is Chinese!!!!
LOL, I'll give it still a try. I think, that these asian apps all got their own style, don't you think so?

dsixda AndroidKitchen has tools integrated to extract and build boot images
For extracting boot.img files I am using dsixda AndroidKitchen for a long time.
In the menu under Advanced you can extract the boot.img file of a rom into a separate folder, change anything you want and repackage vthe boot.img file.
The tool is in English.
Best regards,

from what i understand... you can apply an image file with an NBH extension through fastboot... and you can also apply an image file with a ZIP extension through a flashed recovery mode.
what's the difference between these two kinds of files and two methods of flashing?
also... the instructions that i followed on the cyanogenmod website had me perform these steps.... 1) flash NBH in fastboot, 2) flash recovery using app installer, 3) flash cyanogenmod through recovery mode. my question is... why was the first step (flash NBH in fastboot) necessary? why couldn't i have just gone straight to flashing the recovery mode and then flashing cyanogenmod using recovery mode?
thanks for the help everybody!
anybody? somebody must know the answer to this.
i think nbh file contains all of the rom function such as spl, radio, system,image while zip file contains onyl apps, boot image and system folder

Hey guys,
I am trying to repack the stock kernel as I have made a change to the ramdisk (ro.secure=0) I wasn't able to split the boot.img using split_bootimg.pl as it could not find android magic in the header so used flashtool to extract the kernel.elf file which gave me 3 files.
These were "kernel.elf.Image" "kernel.elf.ramdisk.gz" and "kernel.elf.3"
I have managed to extract and make the changes to the ramdisk and recompile it but im stuck at merging these 3 files back into the flashable kernel.elf file any help would be much appreciated

Maybe you should PM @DooMLoRD
I'm sure he will help you. He will surely reply to your message when he'll have some time.
This guide will help you to convert a stock ftf file to a flashable zip file for CWM or TWRP or any other Recovery. Be sure you know what your doing before proceeding!!
Steps.
1: Extract the ftf file using any unzip manager or winter etc. You will see a bunch of files, but we only need the system.sin, boot.img, and META-INF files and folders for this procedure.
2: Go to META-INF->com->google-android folder and edit updater-script with a Text editor. Go down to package_extract_dir("system", "/system."); and change that to:
package_extract_file("system.sin","/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system");
3: Save and exit.
4: Now create a zip of the boot.img, system.sin and META-INF files and folders and flash in Recovery. Enjoy!
If bootloop occurs then you may have done something wrong. Edit ROM again in PC and move to phone sdcard and try to flash again. If bootloops again, just flash stock ROM back.
Thanks!!!

It isn't specific to your device but, try going to this thread and download ONLY the TWRP 3.0.0.3 for SPflashtool file.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/k3-note/general/sp-flash-tool-tutorial-to-install-twrp-t3346041
Then extract the file, then replace the scatter file and the recovery.img in that file with your scatter file and your recovery.img(make sure to rename your recovery .img to "recovery.img")
Then just follow the flashing instructions listed under the "Now, the flashing part" in that thread.

You didn't understand anything about what I said
I did not tell you to use the recovery in the link that I posted.
I told you to download the file that is linked in the thread that I gave you.
Then extract the file that you download, open the folder that extracts from it then delete the scatter file that it contains and delete the recovery file that it contains.
Then you need to place a copy of the scatter file for your device and the recovery.img for your device in the extracted folder. Make sure that you change the name of your device's recovery file to "recovery.img", otherwise, the program will not recognize your recovery file. After placing YOUR files in that folder, you are ready to flash the device.
If you didn't understand that clearly then I can't help you.
