TWRP can flash .img files without having to do anything special.

I dont think you've booted into TWRP yet, I think you're looking at bootloader, select recovery and see if it boots to TWRP.
TWRP has more than just 2 options, are you sure you have TWRP? What version is it? Does it look like this?

If that's what you have, select Install then find your .img and flash it.

I remember now that TWRP doesn't flash system.img correctly, system.img isn't a standard .img, you need PC and use fastboot.

I know it is too late, but you can enter in Advaced > Terminal and then run this command:
dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system
If your mobile phone doesnt have by-name symlinks you will need to enter the correct partition.

hi aex, I have the same problem but I dont have the folder
/bootdevice/by-name............
can you help me?
it will not work.
try to make a folder and "mount -o loop file in it.
and it will be not mounted also if you specify file system type.
(if it work probably you can use the file)
so ,i don't know how fastboot write in partition or probably
in to file system.
however if you do a dd of your current system partition in a file , after will be correctly mounted , or rewrited correctly in the original partition if you need.
then probably you cannot use fastboot system.img directly in twrp shell (using dd)
this is my experience (e2303 sony / pexorom 3.0 twrp 3.1.1)
if you are searching a fast way to know system partition device block
cat /etc/fstab
and look for system
or just mount system in twrp , then in a terminal do a
df -h
and search for system
for e2303 was /dev/block/mmcblk0p30
(example)
twrp have busybox and light kernel.
so , is linux.
for better support try to ask

u need to use simg2img
(sparse file format compression)
system partition device name can be different on other phones.
done.
img can be write by twrp whitout pc/fastboot.
c'ya
giuseppe
just go to file manager and search for system partition, and on first part type your system.img location and 2 part type just system location
I did this Steps on my Huawei P8. Sim2Img reported a non sparse image, so i moved directly to the DD steps. But after writing the image to the partition, the /system Partition cannot get mountet...
What the hell iam doing wrong ????
I extracted the system.img from an update.app Firmware file.
Its the same Firmware file i flashed before with the dload method.
I want to install TWRP on my Phone with an faulty USB Port. So i have no PC / ADB. I Installed the Firmware via the official Dload Method from Huawai. Then i used this crappy Kingroot to get root and installed TWRP. Now i wanted to flash the stock system partition to get rid of Kingroot for Safetynet.
But why i cant just flash the systempartition ?
Or is there another way to gain root for 15 seconds without traces ?

Why not just use the settings in Kingroot to remove root? Or convert from Kingroot to SuperSu then use SuperSu app settings to remove root?
You don't have to flash the stock system to remove root.

Kingroots uninstall leaves traces in /system/xbin and Safetynet wont work. Why i did not try Supersu ? :-/
But i managed to flash the system.img without problems.
First i tryed an extracted system.img from the Huawei Firmware extractor and Sim2img reported an invalid sparse image. So i thought it must be a raw image.....And this was my mistake. It is a useless image for TWRP.
So i created a flashable zip (TWRP cant flash this, too and the /system partition is not mountable after flashing / installing this zip.
BUT, the system.img INSIDE this zip is a spase image, which sim2img can handle. It gave me a nice raw image which i just dd´d to /system and BINGO, my phone starts up normally
The Short Version :
- Create a FLASHABLE ZIP with the Huawei Firmware Extractor
- use SIM2IMG in TWRP Terminal to get a RAW Image.
- dd´it to the /system partition
System img
You use the restore in twrp to flash your system img, you just until the other boxes
Edit: Sorry wrong thread
Lenovo K5 Pro ROM img
After flashing img file (using TWRP 3.3.1) the phone (Lenovo k5 pro) starts in bootloader mode. Everyone can help?
Help u
Hi u can download a deodexed rom because ais doesn't support some stock roms for ex ch Samsung roms. then decompile it.then decompile it with rar or zarchiver or etc. Then install android image studio (ais) from google
Then open it and tap unpack/mount and select system.img or system.img.ext4 file in decompiled rom . After mounting, copy all files to a directory for ex emulated/0/system/system or another. Attention if you copy it in another directory, rename it as (system) now copy the boot.img from decompiled rom into emulated/0/system .then download this file
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...oid-o-beta-redesigned-emoji-set-t3608280/amp/
Extract meta-inf file into emulated/0/system using winrar or zarchiver or etc. Now you need to have a system folder,boot.img file and a Meta-inf in diractory emulated/0/system. Now compress system,boot.img and meta-inf into one archive and after completing, turn of your device and boot it into twrp recovery and wipe data and cache without wipping internal storage then select install. Then tap select storage and select internal storage.then go to the file and select it and turn off zip singuature verification and install it after installing tis rom, install root zip file and wipe cache/dalvik art and then reboot your device. It may take between 5-25 minutes to boot. Enjoy your new rom
#issues
Sometimes your device maybe take bootloop so you need to install your stock boot.img file and after installing your root zip file choose wipe cache/dalvik art and then reboot your system.
#Alert
1.Don't install the recovery.img file which exists in the decompiled rom because it takes your device into recovery mod and not boot anymore and after you need to install the stock rom using PC
2.your device maybe take bootloop in this method so do it with your own risk

Reboot your device and install twrp official app and open it and select flash image from a directory and select your own twrp and reboot your device [root]
Connect your phone to a PC and install stock rom using ADB or another app which was made for your smartphone [no root]
Is there anyway to flash a full ROM already rooted older version for this model?
This would remove the step to return to factory initial condition to take the upgrade? (I know the device is young, but some established phones this is the way to do it if bootloader and modem is up to date) so the first question is possible to create such a ROM and post?
You could use https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/extract-dat-marshmallow-lollipop-easily-t3334117
extract system.img from update.app, unpack system.img using Imgextractor.exe.
Unpack boot.img from update.app.
Extract boot.img using Android Image Kitchen.
Preroot ramdisk.
Make a flashable zip from extracted system.img and boot.img. Set up permissions, copy files..., etc in updater-script. Make the script flash boot.img.
Done. (In theory, I've not built a rom for any Huawei device yet.)
But to answer your question: Yes.
Just look at the KangVIP roms over in Development. You could just build a stock rom with root.
Edit: Imgextractor actually saves permissions to a file.
Edit 2: You could just flash the newer boot.img in TWRP and root it there, then extract boot image using dd and include that in your rom.
OR use su in /system/bin/
Edit 3: Any rom makers here? Would VENDOR and PRODUCT need to be extracted and flashed as well? (Assuming you're on a pre B183 C567 stock rom)
Nevermind, system.img is unextractable :/
Or the tool I use is not compatible with android N.
That would be awesome I'm stuck on c636 and have no way of going to c567 without paying.
Your headed in a direction, lots of us owners have been waiting for...

Benefits of 567 over 636?
Hello,
I have a phone that I would like to root, unfortunately the bootloader is locked. There are some pre-rooted stock roms around that you could flash using fastboot without unlocking the bootloader. Unfortunately the latest version of the firmware is not available in pre-rooted form.
I downloaded the lastest official firmware (an update.zip package) from the website of the manufacturer and installed it on my phone using the stock recovery. Now the only thing that I need to do is modify the system image and flash it back in the phone.
I converted the system.new.dat file that was included inside the zip package into a raw image that I can easily mount and modify from my computer (I use Debian Jessie). How could I modify the system image to include the su binary and a Superuser up (SuperSu, or equivalent) and convert it into a format that I can flash using fastboot?
I'm running Android 6.0.1 with SELinux set to enforce. The device is an Asus Zenfone 2 Laser ZE550KL. I've posted here because the process of modding a stock rom should be almost doable regardless of the phone manufacturer
