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:
Hello xdawesome forum,
If I want to make my own .zip file to flash it using CWM and boot in some linux distro; say debian, what should be included in this .zip file?
Is it as simple as putting my .img file in a .zip file?
I think your best option is to follow this tuto : whiteboard.ping.se/Android/Debian
If you try to flash directly a debian img, you'll miss some libraries and won't even boot.

Hi, I downloaded the zip folder: sm-t550_p550_p555_cf-autoroot. When I open it there is no .tar file, only cache.img.ext4 and recovery.img. I've rooted many times before and have normally had no issues following the xda links to the .tar files.
Sorry if I'm being a dumbo, help appreciated.

I am making a custom ROM based off of stock for the Zenfone 2e using firmware from the Zenfone ZE500CL and apps from a Zenfone 5 CM12 Build. I have gotten deodexing down, and modding APK's down. But for the life of me, I can't figure out how to create a flashable zip that works. I have tried other custom ROM's zips with correct partitions and such in the updater-script, (not trying to steal other's work, just a test.) and I can't get it to flash. If anyone could help me, I would truly appreciate that.

I forgot to mention that I am using Ubuntu as an OS, so that Windows tool won't work. But, I have found a half-way hack method of building a rom. I did it by decompressing the dat file into an img file, mounting it in Ubuntu, making my edits, repacking it into a fresh ext4 img file, repacking it back into a dat structure, and finally placing the finished files into the stock rom zip which retains lity to flash even on the Zenfone 2e without swapping firmwares. But, Thank You for your help. Too bad I will have to find a way to help in 10 posts before posting my rom, which is nearing completion.
I used the tools I found here to unpack the DAT just in case anyone else wants to know.

Hello,
MD5 is used as a checksum to verify data integrity, but only against unintentional corruption.
You can't make a zip out of MD5 file.
You have to make out of stock firmware for your device.

Hello,
You need to do it manually.
Add meta-inf folder from any ROM of your device and zip it.
