I noticed that oreo was released on the Mate 9, I needed to grab some files from this device, particularly a file named "gps.default.so" or something around that located somewhere in system/lib64 or system/lib but a system dump would definitly be nicer.
Or, you can help me out in extracting the oreo firmware, I've downloaded it and extracted UPDATE.APP and used HuaweiUpdaterExtracter to then grab the system.img. But I can't mount it or extract anything from it. soo yeahhh

You can use superr's Android kitchen to extract everything from the system.img, he has a free version https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/superr-kitchen
And for your information, that "update extractor" doesn't give you usable images as it strips the necessary header from the image. I had to use "splitupdate.pl" to get usable images. I have the extracted images, and there is no file called "gps.default.so" anywhere in the Oreo images, not in /system/lib, /system/lib64 or in /vendor/lib, /vendor/lib64. I do not have a dump of the nouget to check but the file does not exist in the Oreo images
EDIT:
Found the file, it is in the vendor partition, specifically /vendor/lib64/hw so you're going to have to extract vendor.img to get the file.

if u wanna extract system.img then use dsixda kitchen.
put the img file in update original update folder then go to cygwin and choose make a working folder from rom.
it will identify your img file and then give an opt to extract it.
Hi,
I am trying to port a rom, it had the file system.new.dat, I managed to extract the system folder from it, now I have made the changes I wanted, but I need to return the system folder to be system.new.dat
Or if there is any flash without having to go back to .new.dat

Hi, I downloaded firmware eml-tl00 using firmwarefinder . I wanted to get apk file ( I need hwcallrecorder from emui 9.1 , I wanted to update my old file ) . I used Huawei update extractor 0.9.9.5 to unpack update.app file and I saved system.img. I tried various unpacking programs like ext4extractor, appimagemaker, imgextractor, ext4unpacker, romzhushou and I was not able to unpack system.img. i'd very appreciate if someone could tell me what programs to use for unpacking firmware
What about renaming the file to *.rar? Many compressed files can be renamed to unpack it with WinRar or 7zip.

unfortunately it doesn't work
Convert to raw
(You could use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.redlee90.imagekitchenforandroid )
Then mount raw.img via device's command line on a path allowing that.
Hey. If you can upload the full firmware for me or link me to it somehow... Whatever works... I'll give it a try in my kitchen. I've yet to come across any firmware that i can't unpack. Especily system.img files.
Stuck using a p20 for a bit. Can't handle the no root thing.. I can't even run google keyboard. But i'll unpack the.img!

Hello, I´m a newbie on this matters.
I´m trying to cook a custom rom from a stock rom for this android pc with RK3328 chip. The rom I´ve downloaded is an 8.1 android image version, an the app I used is RK3xxx_firmware_tools_5.78.35.00 that I´ve downloaded from the chinagadgetsreviews.
When I uncompressed the rom.img, system.img and boot.img with this app, I got three folders called: "Android", (with a "Image" subfolder with the boot.img, kernel.img, recovery.img... and a package-file file), "boot", (with a boot.img.unkrnl.dump folder who contains many folders and .rc files, boot.img.unkrnl.cfg file and boot.img.cfg file), and "system", (with the app, etc, bin... folders and the build.prop, compatibility_matrix.xml, manifest.xml and vendor files). Also got a system_statfile with these 3 folders.
I´d like to remove some apps from this rom and include others, and if it is possible, changing the recovery.img from it. The recovery partition has 64MB of size, and the original recovery.img has only 9057 KB. The recovery.img I´d like to install is the twrp_RK3328_v3110 adapted for this chip (who has only 5258 KB), but I wonder if I could simply replace the original recovery.img with this twrp one on the "Image" subfolder I said (renaming it first to recovery.img) and after repack the rom, or, like I'm afraid, more things have to be done.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Anybody doesn't know how?

All I can say is, extract the ROM until you get to the system folder then look for /system/app and /system/priv-app folders, delete the apps you don't want and add the ones you want. Then, remove your recovery.img and place your TWRP.img in its place then repack everything into the file format that you need then try flashing it.
If that doesn't work, you'll have to start doing your own research to get your ROM put together correctly.

I have Micromax canvas unite 4 pro/q465 running Android 5.1 [lollipop] and I want to root my phone with magisk. To root my phone I need boot.img of my stock rom because ramdisc is showing YES on my device and is there a way to extract boot.img file on NON-ROOTED PHONE ONLY ? If yes then please also mention a suitable website to download the stock rom, your effort will be appreciated.
To diectly extract boot.img from phone its Android must be rooted.

I really appreciate this method , unfortunately I can't root my phone, so I have to download firmware and then extract boot.img from it right?
The firmware I downloaded
https://www.mediafire.com/file/edza...SW_V8.1.3_HW_V1.0.0_021116_Volte_SPD.zip/file
I tried doing this but didn't any images instead I get 3 files which I don't know too much about, is the problem is that I have to extract it using pc ? because I extracted the firmware on my phone with this app
RAR - Apps on Google Play
Create RAR and ZIP, unpack RAR, ZIP, TAR, GZ, BZ2, XZ, 7z, ISO, ARJ archives.
play.google.com
Is this app was the problem with extracting ? Or the firmware was faulty ?
JOOC downloaded the ZIP you linked to, too, and unpacked it.
Noticed that the firmware is is stored in directory Firmware, it's housed in archive zsl859p_mmx.pac.
You've to convert the .PAC file to a .ZIP file, e.g. with ezyZip tool, to access its content.
I really thank you for your effort, I will let you know the results after doing this.

I tried to convert the .pac file to .zip from this tool but it takes too much time , I mean that convert to zip button never loads for hours so I thought to view that .pac file first to just to get to know what's inside it and when I viewed it, I didn't find any usefull files which contain boot.img.
