I am unable to extract boot.img from the .DZ file - General Questions and Answers

I'm trying to install Magisk in my LG K41s (LM-K410HM) and I only got as far as downloading the firmware, extracting the .DZ file from the .KDZ file, and nothing more. I was using the LG Firmware Extract Tool and it detects the files but when I extract them it leaves a 0 KB file. And the logs say it's due to "Bad State (Incorrect Header Check)".

That's exactly what I did, I extracted the dz file from kdz file successfully, but when it comes to using the LG Extraction Tool to actually extract boot.img from the dz file, it just returns an empty file.

(LG GW620) - KDZ to IMG Help!

Hi everyone!
I'm asking for a fix!
I did the conversion of files for all existing tutorials and it doesn't work!
Procedure:
========
1) Downloaded at LG sources my original Firmware: V10B_00.KDZ
2) Extract .CAB files by LG Utils, Extract with Winrar the dz.file, Extract files by DzDecrypt
Now I used CYGWIN Linux apps emulator:
===============================
3) Used unmbn to generate zImage_Ramdisk.mbn.new
4) Extract all system files with unyaffsmbn
Note: a error happens when i try to extract APKs: "invalid CEN header (bad signature)", All other system files are ok!
What i should do?
Note2: Can someone convert this files for me without errors?

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 :
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

For Pure time consumption reasons, this guide may take me a while to complete, however the steps above should give you a rough idea of how everything is going to be written...
To start with, the information is so much at once, that I've made a video to help people go along with it...
The video is in 2 parts & in English... Please watch these first, that'll cover about everything in the steps except a few things like compilation of extracted IMG files.
The second video should be watched after the first video, so I've put that link in the description of video 1.

OK... Now you've seen the instructions, you can work through extracting every partition you'll need for a firmware backup.... You don't need all of them !
After that, Copy the following files (you should now have them all ) to a new folder called Stock Firmware for SP Flash Tool ..
boot.img
cache.img
lk.img
logo.img
preloader.bin
recovery.img
secro.img
system.img
trustzone.bin or .img
userdata.img
MT*****_Android_scatter.txt
Now you need to edit the Scatter file using NotePad++ or another program that won't wreck line endings... Word pad & Notepad will wreck line endings and destroy the scatter file.
Edit the scatter file to now have the correct file names, eg.....
preloader_******_njh_gjb_.bin TO preloader.bin - The same as your copied file name.
boot_example_mt.img TO boot.img - The name of the file for boot.
Now the scatter file, Image's & Preloader should be all together...
ZIP the folder to remove empty space in .img files, Shrink the Firmware to a Zip file.....
You just need to extract the zip file and open the scatter file in SP Flash Tool v5.16+ .. Then select Download to do a firmware installation.
I will edit this guide in time, however I just wanted to get out how I do this on my MTK Device's... People keep asking me how to do it, so I released the video and this extra information for them... I don't make money on YouTube so everything here is provided free & I don't make any money from helping !!! Sorry about the terrible audio !
