@Manu11, are you referring to extracting the boot.img from the firmware?

No no i wanna unpack boot.img so i can change its contents or in simple way create a insecure boot.img
@Manu11, I have seen few such tools but frankly I have no idea and no experience in this regard.

I unpacked my boot.img with android kitchen, but on recompiling its size went 5mb less and on flashing it directly enters fastboot.
The android kitchen is no longer continued from 2011, so the binaries haven't been updated since then.
I suggest you use "android image kitchen"

I recently installed that fitdroid 2.0 rom with KPL firmware... And I just dont want that image of fitdroid that comes before boot animation.can we change that too??? Thx b4 for your attention all.
Not very hard...just flash with the boot.img of original KPL !!
Hey,thanks for the solution partyush. But how do i flashed it? With Odin? Could u please explain it to me step by step? And if i did the flashing with original KPL,will it destroy data on my phone or not? Thanks

OK,now i'm really need help on how to do that (if it's really possible). I already did extracting the zip archive of the fitdroid so i can see the boot.img and then i replaced it with another boot.img from other FW (including CM7 and original KPL) then i make zip with winrar,copy it to my sdcard and install via CWM (succesfully). The result is the logo before bootanimation changed and then it's stuck,it won't go trough the bootanimation. I really curious ,is there's a special way on creating zip archive or it' just not possible to insert another boot.img to archive?
And then i found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654042 it's HTC Eris thread,so can i apply this on Fit? Sorry for my english and many thanks for your attention

I'm on a doubt whether you meant unpacking or extracting boot.img. Anyways if its unpacking -> you can use Ketut Kumajay's boot.img unpack/repack tools or dsixda's Android kitchen etc.
If you meant extracting boot.img -> you can get it by taking a Nandroid backup in CWM recovery and extracting from it.
Thanks guy

Welcome Bro,
Its simple. Download any rom which is without boot.img in it. The file will be in .zip format. Just install Winrar into ur computer. Download any boot.img files you like from this page Here. then open the Rom file which doesn't contain boot .zip file using winrar. Click on "ADD" button and select the boot.img file you downloaded. Thats all you now have the rom with boot.img file in zip format dont save because you need not to, its already saved . Make a backup of all your files and Kindly follow all instruction from Developer. ( MY Suggestion:-download one more different ROM because if one rom fails then you can try to install another )
Please correct me if I have said anything wrong. :highfive:
This is a thread on how to unpack and repack the system.img.dat file of your Android Rom,to see its content.
Starting from Android 5.x (Lollipop) Custom roms are not compressed like on previous android versions. Earlier all Files were inside the /system folder.And we were able to see all the system files
The problem started in >=5.0 versions because rom size increased and it was necessary to highly compress them again.
You Must Have Following Files Installed in your PC
1. Java SDK = Click here to download java
2. Python 2.xxx= Click here to download Python
How to decompress /Repack these files? Its Sipmle !!
Follow the Instructions Below To do that.
Download the Android Unpack Repack adithyan25.rar from here

Still unable to repack the dat.
Windows says rimg2sdat is not a valid Win32 application.
It works under Windows 7 at work but not under Windows XP Pro like I have at home.
Someone got another version? Is there a XP compatible version of rimg2sdat?
Thanks

but i still have yet to find a way to repack the files back into a .img to flash via fastboot

Where are you getting stuck? I've had no issues personally

Yes, the tool extracts payload.bin and further extracts boot.img, system.img, vendor.img etc and allows you to work on them and will repack them after :highfive:

fingers crossed
then we can finally have a decrypt base with no avb on partitions, I'll try this soon, do you mind if I PM you if I get stuck?
do I *need* to donate?
I'll help if I can but it's Super R's work and I'm sure he is more than happy to help if you get stuck.
