I want to use odin to install the original 4.0.4 version but it still fails because the file that downloads images from Google is factory extension .Tgz can tell me how to do it by odin? I downloaded a. Tar site that supposedly works and my I get the following error. Thanks in advance and sorry for the translation made by google.
Why don't you just flash it through fastboot? Or use a program like 7-Zip and extract it to it's TAR extension.

You need to load the tar file through PDA not phone...

As I make it? of. tgz to. tar as to decompress the. tgz 1 zip and decompress multiple files.
Como lo convierto? de .tgz a .tar ya que al descomprimir el .tgz se descomprimen 1 zip y varios archivos.

Install 7-zip. Right click on the .tgz file, and from the menu select 7-zip>Extract files. You'll end up with a single .tar file which goes in PDA.
I recommend Fastboot however as it's the best way to flash the Nexus with factory images, etc...

The solution was perfect, it turns out to unzip a file using Winrar. Zip and. Tar and 7zip is solved, thank you very much to all and sorry for the inconvenience of a novice.
Greetings and THX TO ALL for reply
I think ODIN is ****, and even more so for the Galaxy Nexus. Fastboot is the best way to flash files to the Gnex.
Hi, other problem, files .sig not found?
Odin is still in operation although the extension is. Tar gives me the same error I posted above to see if someone gives me a solution...

Hi all
I am trying to locate the yakju-icl53f-factory-89fccaac.tgz file on googles website, but they've changed the file to yakju-icl53f-factory-89fccaac.tar now.
Does that mean I can flash it with Odin now?
If I try to extract the contents with 7-zip its just a single file without an extension - no separate bootloader, etc files.....
Any ideas???

When you hold your cursor over the file links they say TGZ, but when you click to download its TAR..
Try that

The fix, if anyone else has the same issue as me, just rename the file back to TGZ, then use 7-zip to unzip it. For some reason Windows 7 changes the TGZ to TAR at the time of download.

Interestingly, it seems to be Internet Explorer renaming from .tgz to .tar. Downloading in Firefox just appends the .tar (eg "----.tgz.tar")
(Windows 7, and Firefox beta 10 & IE 9)

Thankyou was scratching my head for a second there.
I downloaded factory image from code.google.com,and I extracted a file who name is system.img,but I don't know how can I unpack it.
I don't know unpack it with what software,Is not always able to unpack the file when I
tried some softwares.(yaffs2img,winimage,winRAR and something else)
what is a right way to extract and edit it?
Thank you!
you don't extract .img files.... you flash the img file through fastboot.
google on how to use fastboot for more details.
You can extract them just fine. I used dsixda's kitchen to extract system.img so that I could pull the gapps.

Yes, it works ok. Just put the system.img in the original update and choose to make a rom from that file. It will guide you through extracting the system.img. You might be able to get it to build the entire rom if you just zip all of the .img's together and choose that for the input file.
Thank you so much and I'll try. ^^
You can use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15333542& postcount=135 to convert the image to an .ext4.img and then use http://www.diskinternals.com/linux-reader/ to mount (if you are using Windows).

Hi, I am new to Android and rooting and I am attempting to root my Galaxy S3 and I have been following mr.Robinsons guide. However I can't manage to get the .tar file I need. I download the AT&T RAR, extract it and see 10 or so files with Recovery images,boot image, mbn files..etc.
Why is this happening?
Anyone aware of what to do?

I reread his guide, just to be sure I got my instructions correct. You should have downloaded a .7z file. Extract that and now you have a .tar file. Do not extract it. Open up Odin, click on pda, and point it to the tar file.
Hi guys, I would like to extract boot.img from a Stock ROM without the need of installing it on my (Galaxy Note 2 T-mobile). All I found on the internet is how to extract it from an installed ROM.
So I would like to:
1. Extract the boot.img
2. Then flash it through ODIN to my custom ROM (Jedi Master 14)
Thanks in advance and please help me :crying:
Why would you do that?
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
I don't know how you going to use boot.img to fix your problem. But the .md5 rom files are just zipped files. unzip and you will find the boot.img file. Are you sure that this will fix your problem?
Are you trying to change your boot image?
Use a tar archive program (7-Zip, Winzip, Winrar, PKZip, this format is pretty universal) to extract what you need from the official Samsung ROM images. (Check out sammobile.com if you haven't already, you will need to register.)
You might get some error message about the end of the archive, that's normal and due to the presence of the MD5 hash at the end of the file, which most programs will be able to work around nonetheless.
Repack the relevant file with a *nix tar binary, or under Cygwin on a Windows machine. (YMMV, but those are the two only ways I've managed to have the files work with Odin.)
Reboot phone to download mode and flash with Odin as usual.
Done.
Thanks a lot. Thats exactly what I am looking for.

Totally lost. Try to download marshmallow tar and update. But I download, open heimdall and use browse for file. But it is not valid to open and put in cue. I don't know what to do. Is it a different file for Apple. Mac socks by the way. I have no other choice.

Tried again. Just fails to load pit file. Doesn't recognize tar file. Can't even choose file. Tried jodin, can't download. Tried smart switch but apparently sprint doesn't allow that either

You have to extract the tar file. What you actually flash is the file with an extension of .MD5.
