Hello everyone...I want to share a guide on how to extract system files from FTF!...You may find many guide out there on how to extract system files but it is not updated...I will use a latest version of flashtool to extract the system files so the method is different and you can't extract xperia l system.sin if you use the old flashtool (v0.9.10.1 or lower)
Requirements:
1.A brain [IMPORTANT]
2.Latest version of Flashtool Here
3.Android EXT4 unpacker Here
4.7zip Here
First,extract system.sin from FTF using 7zip.

Yes with option 5
Not to compete, but here's a more reusable script to zipalign any APKs...just place them in the folder named "Input", then run b-zipa.bat...they will be in "Output"...remember not to leave spaces between the names of the APKs..."b-zipa" actually means "Batch ZIPAlign", so you can place any number of APKs in "Input" and the script will zipalign them all...

but where should I put the file folder to zipalign?
For Windows OS users, I wrote a script to incorporate Zipalign.exe in Right-Click Context Menu for super easy zipalingn apk anywhere in your hard drive,,
Here is a pic from my PC after Right-Click and showing Context Menu.

"lightbox_next": "Next",

And after Zipalingn process.

I just checked it, it still works fine, you should disable ad-block from your browser and select the green download button not the blue one.
I did already, but connection time out attempt downloading, stable connection, server issue with downloads
Sorry, could you re-upload the link ?

Of course it's not easy, they need to be ported, need smali modification and other dependencies like permission and lib.

All , and when you are going to flash , exclude all and just leave the file you want to flash. I know it doesn't make sense , but if you need to flash it all , you'll have a full firmware.

It's strange, did you manage to crate the FTF file ??
You just need to select the folder and then flashtool will recognize it's contents, all you need to do is select the model of the phone and give a name to the file and the click on create . There's a tutorial over here on how to create the FTF file.
