How to unpack system.img file from UPDATE.APP - EMUI Requests

UPDATE.APP unpacked, everything is fine. But system.img (super.img) does not want to be unpacked in any way. Maybe there is some software for this?
EMUI version: 9.1.1, 10.1 (I tried on two)

[Q] system.img file extraction

Hello guys,
I am trying to extract the system.img file from the Note 10.1 2014 edition stock ROM. It seems that Samsung had also manipulated the file system again. I used to generate an ext4 img file, so that I can mount it in Linux Reader on Windows. However, this method is not working any more.
The tool I used was sgs2img.jar, but as I said, it gets stuck on 32 bytes.
Any idea??

I managed to extract a previous version of firmware of P600, MID, using first Chainfire's sgs4ext4fs utility - https://github.com/Chainfire/sgs4ext4fs - (compiled for Windows). First I trimmed the img with "sgs4ext4fs --trim system.img systemt.img" then I used sgs2ext4.jar to make the systemt.ext4.img file that could be mounted with Linux Reader.
However, the new MJ6 version doesn't work like that.
Maybe someone else could find out what's changed with the new versions.
I attached the Windows version of sgs4ext4fs utility because the source code must be slightly modified for Windows.
and.. did you extract the system.img ? I cant do it also from MK1 base for P600, and i wanted to make rom for that type

[Q] Can you mod ODIN-flasheable firmware?

Hi, I have this idea and can't seem to find how (if possible) to do it:
I got the stock firmware for my device and I'd like to mod the AP tar.md5 file so that I can either remove the stock recovery.img from it, or switch it with the TWRP img file? If I simply extract the files and repack them in a new tar file would it be flasheable in odin?

Help: How to convert .tar.md5 file to .img file

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 :

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

how to flash these

So yeah...
I've downloaded a full dump files for my firmware on my tablet.
After i've downloaded the files, i'd extracted it and .IMGs files
were extracted. These were: backup.img, boot.img, cache.img
kernel.img, kapanic.img, metadata.img, misc.img, recovery.img,
system.img, userdata.img and loader bins. How could i flash these
files for my tablet to work again since a firmware needed to
flash on it. Please tell me how or which should i do or which
tool should i use. I need it asap :crying:

Problems unzipping Omni Rom for Moto G8 Stylus

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.
