I have made a backup of my ROM after I rooted my Acer Z110 (MT6575 based) and made it ready for a possible flash with SP Flash Tool. I wanted to extract only stock ROM (without any app, user data and IMEI info) so that it can be flashed on another Z110 from my same country (Italy, Acer does not provide italian rom) just like the official UK rom that can be downoaded from Acer website.
Additional info: original stock rom and backup have in common boot.img and recovery.img
OK, this might be lengthy, so hang on.
Is it a zip? Is it a rar? Is it something else? Tell me what it says after the dot (e.g. something.zip)
Now, if it is a zip, open it, and delete the data or user files/folders/images/archives.
Try flashing it and see if there is any data left over.
Let me know how it goes
It's a set of .img and .bin files just like the original rom
Code:
MT6575_Android_scatter.txt
DSP_BL
boot.img
cache.img
recovery.img
secro.img
system.img
userdata.img
userdata_nvram_only.img
logo.bin
preloader.bin
uboot.bin
Original ROM lacks cache.img and userdata_nvram_only.img while userdata.img is considerably smaller than the backupped one (6mb vs 171mb) just like system.img and secro.img (these two however are not so different in sizes).
I think that MTK Droid Root & Tools makes also a nandroid backup if necessary but it can't be flashed on the device as there is still no custom recovery for it.
Also it could be helpful to know that originl rom is for a dual-sim version of the device while mine is single-sim (they however are different only in software as someone flashed that rom and everything works, except they can't insert SIM2 as there s no space in our device).
Please, upload your ROM

Thanks in advance!
Hi all. I have some problem with update. After update from root b021 to b023 system version not changed. it's b021 and huawei app remind me update via ota to b023 every time.
How i update?
1. Download full rom (b023) from huawei site.
2. Extract system.img & boot.img files (b023) from "app" and flash them via fastboot.
3. Reboot phone.
Why version OS after update system.img & boot.img has not changed?
May be i need flash not only system.img and boot.img?
if extract update.app i see some other files:
Do i need flash them via fastboot too?
BOOT.img - flash
SYSTEM.img - flash
3RDMODEM.img
CACHE.img
CRC.img
CURVER.img
CUST.img
DTIMAGE.img
EFI.img
FASTBOOT.img
HIFI.img
MCUIMAGE.img
MODEM.img
MODEM_DSP.img
MODEMNVM_UPDATE.img
RECOVERY.img
RECOVERY2.img
SENSORHUB.img
SHA256RSA.img
TEEOS.img
TRUSTFIRMWARE.img
USERDATA.img
VERLIST.img
XLOADER.img
What purpose of all of this files?
Does anyone know?
I have the stock boot image file of SM-G955FD Oreo (8.0.0) Indian firmware
in .tar.md5 format I need it to be converted to .img as .tar.md5 format is not supported by MagiskManager for patching.
Here is the stock boot image of SM-G955FD Oreo (8.0.0) Indian firmware :
http://www9.zippyshare.com/v/HVR3TIEb/file.html
Please any body provide me this boot image file in .img format or tell me an easy way to do so.
Thanks a lot in anticipation!
You don't convert .tar.md5 files into .img. .tar.md5 is just a regular tar archive (ustar format) with md5 checksum appended to it. You can unpack it as any other tar archive, it contains the device images you are probably asking for.
Oreo images are lz4-compressed, so you also need to decompress them, after that you will be left with usable .img files for different partitions.
Edit: Here's G955FXXU1CRB7 boot.img
Can you give me link to Galaxy S3 SGH T999N boot.img please
Hello,
I have an ASUS K01A tablet with a blank system partition and unusable recovery. I can flash img files to their respective partitions just fine (boot.img, droidboot.img) in fastboot, but 'system' in the stock firmware zip is a directory instead of a flashable image. Of course, this (and other reasons) means I can't just flash the stock firmware in fastboot, nor flash over the entire 'system' directory.
I need a system.img to recover my tablet from softbrick, but I can't for the life of me compile one. I've exhausted every method and tool I could find in both Windows and Ubuntu.
I beseech the community; if there is anyone reading this who could build such a file for me, I would be eternally grateful. I believe I only need the system.img to recover the tablet.
The stock firmware is at the ASUS website. Here is the download link: UL-K01A-WW-12.8.1.41-user.zip.
Thanks in advance!
Why not extract the system folder of the ZIP linked to, then pack it into a ZIP what you then convert to IMG using an online-convertor that does the job?

"Why not" indeed; that sounds like it would more than suffice. Can you please recommend one?
Anyone? I have been unable to find this "online-converter" despite days of searching; still at square one.

Thank you, but I've tried this one and all the others on Google, and none will handle the filesize (~650 MB). It must be purpose-made for Android .img files it seems, which I've been unable to find.

I built it finally using IMGBurn to create the raw img and Sparse Converter to convert it to sparse img fragments.
But now the tab has formatting error, and with -u option, flashing errors (all partitions and imgs now). Ah, well.
Thank you to everyone! Hopefully someone else reading this will have better luck than me.

Download the attached file from the link at the bottom of this post and unzip it somewhere on your PC. It is a temporary recovery launcher. We'll come back to it in a moment. Based on your original post I'm assuming you already have your stock firmware downloaded as well as ADB and Fastboot setup. From your stock firmware unpack the following files: fastboot.img, splashscreen.img, and boot.img and place them in your ADB/Fastboot folder. Copy the stock firmware to your sd card (in its original, unzipped form...the way it was when you first downloaded it). Put the tablet in fastboot mode. Run the following fastboot commands from a command prompt.
- fastboot flash fastboot fastboot.img
- fastboot flash boot boot.img
- fastboot flash splashscreen splashscreen.img
Reboot back to fastboot mode. Go to wherever you unzipped the temp recovery that you downloaded earlier. Double click on launcher.bat. Type accept in the window, then type T2 and your device should boot into CWM recovery. Now choose install zip>install from se card>and choose the stock firmware.zip that you previously copied to your sd card then let it do its thing. Once its finished go back to the first page of the CWM recovery that you're in and select reboot system now>no>no. You should be golden now. Post back if you have any issues.

Trying to flash the Omni Rom for my Moto Stylus. When I unzip the folder I do not see,
boot.img, system.img, product.img, vbmeta.img ? What I get is a folder with Meta-INF, care_map.bp, payload.bin, payload properties.txt. Says folder is unziped ? Unziped with a couple different programs, always the same.
