LG Expo ROM Decompiled - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

I was asked to help get a file working today. and So I did.
Download the Official LG Expo ROM.
That will extract the files to C:/Users/All Users/LGMobileAX/Phone
you will then have a *.dz file
Copy that file somewhere it wont matter where, just so that DZDecrypt is in the same directory.
Once you have that, just either drag and drop the .dz file to DZDecrypt or load it up from CMD window.
You should get something like
C:\Users\Conflipper\Desktop\[LG] kitchen_2.0\TOOLS>DZDecrypt ROM.dz
DZ-Decryptor v0.5 *final* by BIGB0SS from COPS.
[■] Opening file "ROM.dz".
[■] Unpacking informations:
- Unpacking "amss.mbn" (Packed:0070CFF2 - Unpacked:00E4A000).

[■] Closing file "ROM.dz".
This will give you all of the files that you need.
Please note that you need to use the file I have attached. This file has been edit so that it will allow for the larger Expo ROM, it was designed to be used with LG Incite and so here it is for the Expo.
Thank Copsfrance for the SRC and orginal tool.
Here is the .dz file broken down to its indivdual parts.

Expert Skinners please help

Hey guys im trying to learn how to skin a dialer for windows mobile 6.5...but when i put my own button in it just shows up as white..im using the stock xperia dialer...what am i doing wrong or what do i need to do...if someone could help please
i guess it shows where ur keys are when you locate them via GPS...it's a wild guess though.
im talking about skinning the phone canvas.... i cant get what i change to show it just shows as white...not referring to anything with gps..thanks though
it is the dll you extracted them from..
you have handled these steps?
- unsign dll
- extract images..
- edit images
- put images back in dll
- sign dll
if not follow it!
i think the problem is the signing
well i extracted the images from the cab file jacks xperia dialer using cab manager and just replaced the png file with my edited one...do i have to sign a cab if thats even possible?

[Extract|Build] LG DZ Tools (updated 03/06/11)

Hello.
WP7DZExtract extracts every partition from DZ file and converts flash.bin to nb (opens by htcRIE).
My second tool WP7DZBuild builds DZ from partitions and their table (mb it will be not required, please pm me LG device owners).
By the way, files from that topic were extract using this tool.
Usage:
WP7DZExtract.exe input.dz output_dir, there input.dz is DZ ROM file, output_dir is directory.
In output directory will be created many files, one of them, flash.bin, is nb file, just rename it to flash.nb and open it using htcRIE or any tool.
WP7DZBuild.exe input_dir output.dz, there input_dir is directory constains flash.bin, output.dz is out file.
Note: This tools requires .Net Framework 4.0 (at least Client Profile). You can download it form Microsoft web site.
I hope it works (althrough my device is LG, but there is no way to dump or flash it's ROM). Any bugreports here.
Thanks!
I've used standart GZIPStream (works well for unpacking), but it's output doesn't equals original, i've tried to use SharpZip, DotNetZip and even gzip, but uselessly... LG Flasher doesn't work on my computer (why?), so i can't check my work, i fully hope on you, LG owners! Sorry for my english, i dislike online translators and write as i know, though my english skill is pour (too).
Very nice. Hope to get using this very soon.
Yes support for lg devices i am loving it :3 Thanks.
I will tested out.
thx for sharing
Build tool is ready!
Great work!
I'm getting a "#46 Cannot load. Invalid file format" when opening flash.nb with HTCRIE
Please post the link to your ROM, mb i broked down something while developed build tool.

Everything works well. Mb you are using old version of htcRIE? Try to donwload most fresh. At least WP7DZExtract checks hash after unpacking and compares it with dz included, so if hash matchs file is successfully unpacked.
Screenshot
Your correct. I was using "0.5.0.12" Upgraded to "0.7.0.19" and it works.
I was able to get the LG Quantum dz and use these tools to have a look inside the rom and the registry. It makes me wish we could rebuild these roms to unbrand them.

That's right, i wanted to build my own rom, but as i wrote above there is no rom for my device. Please test it LG owners, i want to check my gz.
WP7DZBuild
I have been working on my own encrypt/decrypt program. The decrypting is fine, however the trick is encrypting the extracted files back into a flashable image. Using GZip or Zip on linux produces a ROM that is 200 KB smaller than the original LG C900AT ROM. The LG flasher program gives the error "ErrNum 501 Load Image."
So I tried using your WP7DZBuild tool to create a ROM and it's size is 214 MB, the original ROM is ~191.8 MB. The LG flasher program does not give an error when using the ROM built with your tool, but the ROM will not flash to the phone (LG Quantum C900). The LG flasher program just sits waiting. It seems as if the recompression of the files is the key to making the build process work. The original ROM from LG contains files that are decompressable with GZip, but using GZip to recompress results in an invalid file.
I have looked at the binary file produced when using both GZip and Zip, both contain the filename which is not included in the Original ROM . Also, looking at the GZIP file format, some of the Data headers are empty in the original ROM, but both GZip and ZIP fill these fields in.
Do you guys have any ideas as to a ZIP program/library that can output a valid Zip file for inclusion in a flashable ROM that does not include the name of the file that was compressed to make the file? Maybe the original LG encryption program deletes/zeros certain fields in the Zip file header?
Also, just taking the decrypted original ROM's files while still compressed by whatever method LG used, I can create a flashable ROM (it's actually what my phone is running right now!). I'm thinking of GZipping the files and then going back and zeroing out the fields so that the data headers match the original. Maybe that will work.
Has anybody else tried to rebuild a ROM and flash it to the phone?
Everyone test on kdz g5 ?

Just to know before I use your tool (or the other one in freaktab)
Some device makers post their firmware in one file, normally titled "update.img", in this are included all is needed.
Are flashed back using RKBatchTool ... your app will generate such file?
TIA

Some files in "update.img" (RKAF) don't contained in devises partitions. For example: bootloader (like RK3188Loader(L)_V1.24.bin for RK3188), recover-script, update-script. You can add files and make own flashable fw (imgRePackerRK with option /rkaf)

Use rkDumper​
Excellent and reliable tool, thanks a lot!
Works much better for me than the other image splitting program which, for some reason, keeps aborting, telling me that I have 0.00MB or free disk space although I have hundreds of gigs free.
RkDumper is nice too, but I prefer doing a full NAND dump using RK Android Tool and use this one to split it.
Yet another one of your very, very useful tools, RedScorpio.
спасибо !

unpackimg Compression used: data Error!

Hello Comunity
I want to play around with my own build of Cyanogenmod. I have an not yet supported (Mediatek) device and want to give it a try... (It probably will not work and I will hardbrick my device but thats better than just throw it away and buy a new smartphone because mine is quite old).
I have the stock ROM already with the boot.img and recovery.img and a Windows version of Android Kitchen which contains unpackimg.
Now I tried to unpack an image (I tried both boot.img and recovery.img) but it gives an error:
Code:
Android Image Kitchen - UnpackImg Script
by osm0sis @ xda-developers
Supplied image: boot-sign.img
Removing old work folders and files . . .
Setting up work folders . . .
Splitting image to "/split_img/" . . .

BOARD_RAMDISK_OFFSET 01000000
BOARD_TAGS_OFFSET 00000100
Unpacking ramdisk to "/ramdisk/" . . .
Compression used: data
Error!
Then I read about "lokied" images, which seem to be protected somehow. Because of that I downloaded the Loki-Addon and tried unlokimg. That gives me a new image which results in the same error as above.
Sorry, but for some reason I am not allowed to add links to this post, maybe because I am a new user...
But the program I used could be found in [DEV][TOOL] Android Image Kitchen - Unpack/Repack Kernel Ramdisk [Win/Android/Linux] by osm0sis.
Is this a common error and is there any way to use those images for building my own Cyanogenmod?
+++ I just found a solution:
The Problem was that I have a Mediatek device. Mediatek SoCs seem to use an different type of packing their ramdisk files.
But you are able to process such files with this tool: https://github.com/bgcngm/mtk-tools
