Hello, I have an i9003 which only has external memory (sd card), I removed the nand as it was faulty and caused the phone to loop restart and stuff.
I had to root it and modify the vold.fstab file to make use of the SD card as internal phone memory. My question is: is there a way to modify the content of the vold.fstab directly in the .rfs image before flashing? I read mounting on linux there are problems with permissions and this is a read only file.

Thanks, the problem is that I get an error writing to file. I believe vold.fstab is read only. Solution?

Don't login as root.
use sudo command instead.
the result is the same with sudo. The system can't write file to rfs.
Please whosoever reads this post and has got a solution to this please reply as i need a solution desperatly.This is my third post of the same help and till now i have not got any help.Is this is what xda all about????

hello,
I am using a virtual box with Ubuntu 16.04 as guest and Windows 10 as host
I have downloaded the binaries such as simg2img img2simg,etc...But whenever i am using the command
Code:
sudo ./simg2img system.img sys.raw
i am getting the error
Code:
[email protected]:/media/htc_desire$ sudo ./simg2img system.img sys.raw
sudo: unable to execute ./simg2img: No such file or directory
I have also tried the command
Code:
sudo chmod +x simg2img
but still i am getting the same error.
Is there any other way to make the binaries executable and is there any other way to extract a raw image of out a spare image and then mount the raw image inorder to obtain the system folder so that i can access files and folders such as apks and jars.
Can anyone please help me how to use the binaries such as simg2img,img2simg,make_ext4fs,etc... relations to extracting a rom in Ubuntu 16.04. I have been trying to get the system folder out of the sparse image since a week but i a unable to do so.And i have a system.img file in the rom folder but i do not know weather its a sparse image or a raw image.So can anyone please tell me how to differentiate between a Sparse image and a Raw image so that i can extract it accordingly.
Are the files in the same directory as your terminal is? If not you can use the CD command to change folders or you can use a file explorer and right click open terminal here, and then try running the above commands. Also right click on the files your executing and go to permissions tab and tick the box that says something along the lines of "allow execution of file" (sorry can't remeber of the top of my head).
Also another you can try is using the mount command to mount the system .img to a directory of your choosing and then modify the files. A general example can be
Code:
mkdir /temp-sys
mount -o loop auto system.img /temp-sys/
Note: don't use that exact code but do some research as that was also off the top of my head. Good luck.
Hello all,
My Chinese notwellknown phone model does not have TWRP, but I have made live TWRP/CWM (yes both) backup files:
system.ext4.win (TWRP) and its md5
system.ext4.tar and (CWM) and its md5.
If one day, I have a bootloop and want to restore those file via Bootloader: (Power button & Vol-)
then: fastboot -S 130M flash system system.img
So how do I create a "system.img" from one of the files above (system.ext4.win or system.ext4.tar) ?
A) Before someone sidetrack the topic, I have done MANY TIMES SUCCESSFULLY the command: fastboot -S 130M flash system "stock-system-file.img" with this phone ( .img extracted from stock zip/tar). (* 1)
B) I didn't ask: "Is there other way to restore ?" I asked: How to convert *.ext4.win (twrp) or *.ext4.tar (cwm) files to .img files just like the ones uncompressed from a stock zip/tar.
(*1) Of course there are other ways to restore, like temporarily fastboot boot twrp.img then restore from there or from twrp>adb. But that's not what the question is asking.
........... Thank you everyone ...........

Here is a thread for converting TWRP/CWM backups into a flashable zip. I know you aren't looking for how to create a flashable zip but the guide instructs how to extract the system.ext4.win and system.ext4.tar to get the system.img from the backup, this is the part that you need.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2746044

first, system.img usually can be downloaded somewhere, no need to restore twrp backup for system. don't you think you will find a download? second, if you restore system you may required to restore vendor and boot too. boot.emmc.win can be flashed from fastboot directly, but for vendor you need to convert. the same way. third, system.img can have different formats. you need to know which file system type, partition size, and if it is sparsed image or not. file system type is EXT4 in your case because twrp backup is named system.ext4.win
for "converting" the system.ext4.win* file(s) into system.img you do it in two steps. first you need to create a empty ext4 image file. after the empty disk image is mounted somewhere, you simply unpack the backup files into the mounted disk. so it's not really converting, more like copying.
You need a linux machine for this
so let's begin with partition size
on a working device you can simply check from system or recovery. find the symlink, resolve the symlink for system, get #blocks (=size) for respective block partition, for example mmcblk0p99
for some reason xda blocks code for ls -l (lower case -L there is no space between)
Code:
find /dev/block -name by-name
ls - l /dev/block/platform/bootdevice/by-name
cat /proc/partitions
Note: the above commands need to be run on target android device only. use adb shell or terminal emulator. all other commands below need to be run on host linux pc
if gathering partition size on the device itself is not an option for you, if you have a mediatek chipset you can simply look into scatter file. OTA zip files most likely contain scatter file. if you don't have a scatter file for your ROM version, you can create your own scatter file with WwR MTK
use hex2dec calculator for partition_size: 0x9C800000 = 2625634304 bytes = 2564096 KiB (#blocks)
if you don't have mediatek device i am running out of ideas. you can boot into twrp from fastboot and check, or find a ROM and check the file size hopefully it is not a sparsed image.
Once you know the partition size, now proceed to create a empty file (avoid to do this on fat32 host if size is bigger > 4 GiB)
and format the file to ext4 (or f2fs if needed)
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=system.img bs=1 count=0 seek=2625634304
mke2fs -t ext4 system.img
if all went well you can create a mount point on host and mount the empty disk image. the following commands need to be run with root permissions. you can do it from sudo or as root
Code:
mkdir system
sudo -i
cd /home/$SUDO_USER
mount -t ext4 -o loop,rw,noexec,noatime system.img system
you can now unpack the tar files into system. make sure the folder structure remains intact, if the archive contains the folder /system you should unpack to ~ (this will create all files in ~/system) otherwise you need to unpack to ~/system (or cd into ~/system)
for cwm all files need to be concatenated. for twrp do not concatenate each file is a standalone tar archive. if you have android > kitkat 4.4.2+ make sure you use the proper flags for selinux context
Code:
tar --selinux --xattrs --numeric-owner -vxpf system.ext4.win000
tar --selinux --xattrs --numeric-owner -vxpf system.ext4.win001
or
Code:
cat system.ext4.tar000 system.ext4.tar001 | tar --selinux --xattrs --numeric-owner -vxp
the unpacking may produce errors malformed header or something, make sure all files extracted anyway. i have read somewhere better use star instead of tar which can handle twrp files in the right way, unfortunately haven't tested yet
to avoid any problems with permissions you should check/set for system again
Code:
chown -h 1000:1000 system
chmod 0755 system
chcon -h --reference system/bin system
after unpacking just unmount the disk image
Code:
umount system
rmdir system
exit
If you want to create a sparse image you can use the img2simg tool
Code:
sudo apt-get install android-tools-fsutils
img2simg system.img system.smg
This method is just written on the fly especially for your request, everything untested. I really don't know if this file is flashable from fastboot, do it at your own risk!

Cygwin works as well, it doesn't necessarily "have" to be Linux.
There is a post for using Cygwin as well in the thread that I linked.
More than one way to "skin this cat", so to speak. I'm sure they'll figure it out with the information they've been provided.

i don't think so, twrp archive doesn't contain a system.img it only contains folder /system. therefore you can't extract system.img but only the files inside, which have to be extracted in the right way including metadata. the cygwin untar.exe won't handle secontext flag. besides this it is generally bad idea to extract linux files to windows file system. ntfs is case insensitive and not all ascii chars allowed in file names, you will lose all file permissions owner/group and selinux context (except you untar it directly to ext4 image like i said). This might not be important for flashable zip because everything is lost inside a zip anyway (that's why META-INF is needed) but for creating a working ext4 image you must set everything to drw(x)r-(x)r-(x) system system ubject_r:system_file:s0 (i can be wrong always double check for your ROM) things become more complicated when we talking about data.ext4.win or vendor.ext4.win
even if you compile star or gnu tar and all other binaries for windows like mke2fs chcon or so, you won't be able to mount the ext4 disk image r/w in the right way on windows..
anyway thanks for suggesting cygwin, might be a simple alternative for windows freaks. i personally prefer booting live distro from usb stick

Yeah, that is true, it should only be the system folder.
Since they must use TWRP/CWM to create the backups, maybe it would have been better to suggest that they should instead, boot into TWRP then connect to adb to use adb shell commands or to use the terminal emulator that is built into TWRP to run a system dump or dd commands to dd a copy of the system.img over to PC.
Or maybe there is a way to mount/run the extracted system folder in terminal then using terminal to dump/dd a .img from that. I don't even know if that is possible(never heard of it, but it's a thought) but it seems to me that if the system.img is what is written to the system partition when flashed and this is what creates the system folder, there "should" be a way to pack the contents of the system folder back into what was originally contained in the system.img. It might miss a few things though, like the kernel for one, the kernel is sometimes part of the system.img but I don't know if that necessarily means that the kernel will be in the system partition/folder when the system.img is flashed. Thus, making it impossible to reverse engineer back into a proper system.img using only the contents of the system folder obtained from a nandroid backup.
A system dump, dd the .img or extract the system.img from the stock firmware file are the way to go, preferably, extracting from the stock firmware file, because that is easier and less risky than using shell, terminal and Linux for the uninitiated.

I use VM, Live USB and dual boot, depending on which system I'm on(I have more than one rig) and depending on what I'm doing. In some cases, using Windows running Linux in VM is handy because some things are easier in Windows and some are easier in Linux, VM allows switching back and forth between Windows and Linux "on the fly" instead of having to move back and forth between two different systems. Another advantage to VM, your actual system is effectively immune to viruses when browsing the web inside the VM, only the OS installed in the VM is vulnerable, if infected, just wipe that OS and reinstall in the VM and you're clean again, your actual system that the VM is running on, never gets effected.

yeah i wonder how did create twrp backup without actually having twrp. busybox tar isn't able to do it, at least full tar binary is required. would be better to create backup in desired format from the very beginning. easiest way is adb pull /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system system.img (with proper path of course)

They booted a live temporary session of TWRP without actually flashing it to the recovery partition. I've done the same on an Intel tablet and a couple of RCA tablets. Booting it directly instead of flashing it onto the device doesn't trigger the locked bootloader. The locked bootloader won't allow booting unverified software that has been installed in the device's hardware itself, but it does not block booting unverified software from an external source.

After reading other source, someone said the ext4.win are just tar. One only needs to rename them to ext4.win.tar and you uncompress to img.
I guess the truth is more complicated than that because img (from stock, ready to be ODINed/Bootloader Fastboot) are raw images, including zeros. That's the difference.
In the end, if I had to do it again, I would have to dd the whole /mmcblkxxx(system) to a microSD. Yes 16-20Gb takes a much longer time than 2-3Gb (system.ext4.win) but that what <fastboot flash system system.img> requires (raw data and zeros).

Thats exactly how it works see post #3
if you add entry with file system type "emmc" in /etc/recovery.fstab TWRP produces flashable disk image system_image.emmc.win* instead of tar archive (which you can probably concatenate into system.img)
Code:
/system_image emmc /dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/by-name/system flags=display="System Image";backup=1;flashimg=1
So I tried everything.. Changed filesystem to EXT2 and then back to EXT4...
Anyway.. when I try to flash it always FAILS because of failed to mount /odm.
Someone help me cuz don't know what to do its making me mad tho

I returned to Oreo successfully in a J415G with U1. However, trying to restore odm doesn't seems to fix the extra icons on the settings.
Idk if I'm doing something wrong in the terminal (recovery) or if I'm missing some commands. Any thoughts? or an alternative way to flash odm?
Also: thanks for the guide, it really make back my J4+ performance.
Do you still have the working links for this solution? I'm also having the same problem and if it's not too much to ask, can you give me step by step instruction on how to fix the problem.
Thank you very much!

mount: ../sunfish-rq3a.210805.001.a1/system: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error.
The image seems not to be an ext4 images, but it's not packed as I can see selinux marks in it.
Which tool do I have to use, to make a raw image or extract the files from it. Or how to get the offset for mounting it?
Maybe this helps...

This might do it. I have done this before, though it wasn't for the system.img in the pixel zip...

No, that's Linux commands. Windows has WSL that gives you a Linux shell that might be able to run such commands? I have not used it though because I have a Linux server handy.

Did you convert the sparse image into a regular image before mounting it?
yes fixed in win10

i'm trying to get a wifi module to work on a rom, following this guide
5) Now run Ext4 Unpacker which you previously extracted from somewhere, you will see it has a Windows Explorer style interface, easy to use. Now using the button on the top right of the box navigate to the .img file you just extracted earlier and open it. You will see a tree folder structure which are the folders contained in the Android system folder. go inside Vendor then inside modules, select the module you need (in my case the 8192cu.ko file) then right click and select Extract, then decide where to save it.
6) having done this, copy the file onto a USB stick, start the mini pc and connect the stick containing the file to it, then from the file manager transfer the driver file to the mini pc memory
7) you need the terminal emulator, if you don't have it already installed do a search on pc with google
"terminal emulator apk" download it, copy it and install it in your mini pc.
8) start the terminal emulator and go to the folder where you previously copied the driver file, suppose you copied it to /mnt/sdcard, you will have to type cd /mnt/sdcard followed by enter.
9) from the terminal emulator type su followed by enter to become superuser (administrator)
10 type insmod followed by the name of the driver file (in my case insmod 8192cu.ko) and voilà the game is done!
but the insmod command gives me error "exec format failed"
any help?
