I have the update for my android based head unit Sony xav-601BT. I'd like to get it open and get root access and maybe sideload some custom apks if its possible. The update is a bin file but it will not let me access it using 7Zip or mount it using Deamon tools so I'm thinking its encrypted or I'm trying to access it incorrectly. Any information at all would be greatly appreciated.

I am facing some difficultys two with the .bin files . Altough it is in another app , still i cannot find an tool wich can open this file .
So far i tried , renaming it to other formats , obiously it did not work I tried adding an .cue file ( saw that on youtube ) and openning it true Deamen and UltraIso . Tried VoiceEditor but al that no avail . IS ther another way to crack this baby ?

any tool for opening a .rar file on wp7.5 ??
i am also looking for something like that.
Opening - for what? What would you like to do with rar content?
Presumably, the same think you'd do with the ability to open ZIP files on the phone, which it already has (I've never actually needed to do this, except for hacks, but it works).
The RAR format has some annoying restrictions around its use; some developers don't like it for that reason and are therefore less likely to develop for it. You'll probably need to get a C/C++ RAR library and then port it to the phone and access it through COM. Doing it all in managed code would be cleaner (and would let you put it on the Marketplace) but I don't know if there are any managed implementations to work from, so you might have to write the whole thing.
@sensboston
actually i wanna open the mail attachment whic come in .rar format..
GoodDayToDie, here is the managed code to work with rar archives: http://nunrar.codeplex.com/ (and project already has SL implementation so it can be easily ported to WP7 platform). Technically it's possible to create .rar extension handler (for full/policy unlocked devices) but I see no reason why this should be done...
vivek27, I still don't get why do you want to open rar attachments? What are you going to do with unrared files? You can't play 'em or install 'em or read 'em. Just unpack to the rar-handler isolated storage file? Why?

Hi there!
I was tinkering about on the system files of my Galaxy Beam, and (maybe) accidentally messed up with the partition of the device.
The device runs on Jelly Bean 4.1.2 and now its mobile data service is disabled, and when I checked the baseband it says "XXXX" (I believe this is the same case as baseband unknown).
I tried to repair it using Szaby59's method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2145464), but to no avail.
I wonder if there is another way to restore the baseband of my phone? I understand I might have messed with the efs and modemfs files, will it help if there is anyone who is kind enough to share his/her stock efs/modemfs files, and I get to use those files to my phone?
Hope the information was clear enough, thanks in advance.

I just registered and replied this post with many thanks! Because I also had headache with my i8530 phone which lost the baseband info.
Your file of "modemefs.zip" REALLY worked on my I8530 phone! I unzipped the files and copied into the root directory of "modemefs", then reboot, finally the baseband came back!!!:good:
I almost decided to throw away this cell phone before I found this post. You have greatly helped me to solve my problem.
Many thanks again!

how to replace the modem file in root directory plz tell

First make sure your phone is rooted and Root Explorer is installed.
Open Root Explorer, copy the files to /modemfs directory.
If failed to copy, one reason may be that /modelfs directory has insufficient space. Because Android system allocates different space for some specific system directories.
When you turn to /modemfs, Root Explorer will show "XX MB used, XX MB free" on the top.
If the free space is very little, you will NOT be able to replace the model file, so you need to consider to delete some useless or irrelevant files inside this directory.
I have the stock rom for the Galaxy S6 Cricket variant... I am having trouble in getting the build.prop from the system.img. I have tired many methods from other threads but none seem to work. Any suggestions or working ways to extract the build.prop from the system.img or any way to open up the .img file.
I am doing this to post the rom in the ROM WIP section for the root.

Try the tools in this thread . I used them last week to extract a build prop.
Just load up the system.IMG and drag the file from the system folder to your desktop.

I got your PM. Sorry for the late reply. I'm posting here in case someone else needs the info.
Download Ext2explore.
Extract to your PC.
Run as administrator.
In app: go to file - open image - (find your system image) and open
It will display your image in tree and folder view
Use either one (depending on your preference) (but your build.prop will be in the first view as its in the root of the system).
Right click the file/s you want to extract
Select save
Save your file.......profit
Hope this helps

Hi!
I'd like to know where the OTAs are stored in our M2. Anyone that hasn't done yet the update download, and that has Root permissions, can use this app to find where they're stored, and if possible, upload it and post a link to it.
Thank you!
Do you still needed the file, sir ?

Yep. It's for some research
I think, the app didn't work sir. After I wait 30 minutes, none of the files were copied to my storage. Then I try searching using manual method, I found one file, the file size is as large as my OTA update. The nama file is "update-package".
The file extension is not ".zip", in the folder recovery (internal storage). My estimate, the file extension .LZMA or .tar.LZMA or .zipx.
I've tried to extract and decompress in the PC (windows os) using some programs, but failed.
If you still need the file, I'll upload it now .

Okay, so this is what I got:
The update zip refuses to be flashed in UBL devices. FOTAkernel system is broken after you open the bootloader, which leads us with an unused partition (but that's other thing). The recovery logs just say: WARN: Status Rooted, ERR: Bootloader is unlocked.
I've tried to force it using AOSP Recovery commands
Code:
echo 'boot-recovery' > /cache/recovery/command
echo '--update_package=/sdcard/update.zip' >> /cache/recovery/command
reboot recovery
But just got a big nope.
So, now time to have a look at it. I tried to unpack it several times but no luck. The reason seems to be, very probably, because this is a LZMA compressed file (as 7-Zip reported) but with 2 additions at the end (which corrupts the entire read of it): An unencrypted/uncompressed XML which points out which is the software available right now in the phone (<source>), and which is the version that is going to be installed (<target>), plus, some a weird <generation> section. This is the XML
Code:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1'?>
<metadata version="3.3">
<product>
<manufacturer>Sony</manufacturer>
<model>D2302</model>
<hwplatform>msm8226</hwplatform>
</product>
<update>
<generation>
<version>1.1.2</version>
<date>2015-12-28T12:10:19Z</date>
<rb_version>7.0.15.117</rb_version>
<rb_ua_version>7.0.15.117</rb_ua_version>
</generation>
<source>
<software>
<revision>18.6.A.0.175</revision>
</software>
<customization>
<variant>1281-0464</variant>
<revision>R2C</revision>
</customization>
</source>
<target>
<software>
<revision>18.6.A.0.182</revision>
</software>
<customization>
<variant>1281-0464</variant>
<revision>R2C</revision>
</customization>
</target>
</update>
</metadata>
And, right after that, I can perfectly see a SIN header, so I isolated it and, looks quite similar to the FOTAkernel.sin included in FTFs (330613072905Z010U S1_FOTA0 ‚"0), I personally guess it's a very, very small ELF binary, by the size of it.
So, the problem now comes to isolate the 3 parts, the LZMA file, the XML and the SIN, separetly. After that, I think we can probably have a look insde them.
How about linux os? Can we unpack or decompress that file on linux os, sir? Do you have tried?

I've tried many tools and combinations (ext4, .img, etc) and none of them worked... I'll think more about it.
Please anyone senior to comment of what I do and what's the right way ?
- I decompressed Chinese firmware for P40Pro. Finally extracted bunch of partitions as IMG files and I am lost now:
Linux says
>file system.img
> DATA
while I expected EXT4. Maybe extraction went wrong ? How do I now open IMG partition and get my Call recorder from it ? What other API I would need to extract to allow access to mic and speakers... Anyone can put some light on all this topic ?
Where did you get the firmware, If I could give it a try, I might be able to retrieve the apk (not sure, but there's always a chance if the apk exists).
Huawei switched away from the EXT4 file system to EROFS
Works like charm :

I found it here at easy firmwares. I also have found a script on XDA which should extract content of IMG file which is not EXT3 indeed.
Here is a thread about mounting EROFS
Maybe this helps someone ?
I get an error when I updated. it looks so error 412 #23234sQwerRddgg? Who can help me?
