simple way to extract files from *.img is put in your sdcard (ex: system.img), mount to folder and backup using tar
Code:
cd /mnt/sdcard
mkdir -f system
busybox mount -o loop,ro system.img system
busybox tar -cf system.tar system
busybox umount system
you got your system.img content in system.tar file. if you extract in linux you got original file attributes.

i try so many tools for windows and finally work good for me Linux Reader
install/Open Linux Reader -->Drives -->>Mount Image -->>Raw Disk Images-->>open System.img-->>Save File To Ur Folder.....
for linux use XDA kitchen (u know about it) .............
the file is encrypted. common tools won't work. I always use CWM to make a nandroid backup to extract system files from stock rom.

it is not easy on phone but on computor it becomes easy
bro this for windows 7 and series that is easy for u r using linux but we are not using it
Somekill i know ur purpose but i think irfan info is very usefull.
Why don't u make this thread general information to extract *.img from windows and linux.
If u don't have good knowledge of linux (same with me - lol) u can add link to irfan or other member that have knowledge to share.
This can be usefull thread not only in sgy but other device i think and hope usefull info not gone with spam or junk thead.
All we need is usefull information and applicable to sgy so can make our device more better.

[GUIDE] Noob Friendly RFS Browsing/Extracting Guide
Ok guys, So after having seen a million and one questions on how to extract RFS files and all the complex answers we keep getting on mounting rfs files in linux and blah blah blah (all a waste of time if all you need is to view/extract files from an RFS file from some firmware)... and now there is no excuse for those few requesting other members to extract stuff for them.. you can do it yourself! Here is the easy/fast way to do it without having to go through all the trouble NOTE: This, mind you is mainly for extracting/viewing. Not for editing RFS files. Go to: -http://www.magiciso.com/ -Download MagicISO (its free trial but that don't matter for viewing/extracting) -Install -Open MagicISO -Hit File->Open -In the section "Files of type:" - Click the drop down and select "All Files (*.*)" -Select RFS file of your choosing (For example: factoryfs.rfs where all firmware apps are located) and.. VIOLA! Browse/Extract anything you need... No hassles. To extract you can simply click and drag to another folder/desktop as needed Cheers!
TY for this guide. Unlike htc hd2 forums I really have hard time getting answers to my questions in tab forums so this kind of guides helps me very much. Again TY.
You sir, are very welcome! Glad it helped. Thats what we're here for!
Make it a sticky !
add it to the wiki rather than making this post sticky. http://modadroid.com/index.php/Main_Page
Just tried it with UltraISO. It seems to work, too. Thanks

MagicISO didn't work for me. I copied the .rfs file to a directory on Linux and mounted as read/write and was able to modify the file system. Then, I unmounted it and flashed the changes to my GT using Heimdall. Sent from my SCH-I800 using XDA App

Click to collapse This guide is only for browsing and extracting RFS files hence the name. It is not for modification.
I'm aware of what the original post was explaining. I tried that solution and it failed. That's why I suggested another method. MagicISO didn't work for me. If others try it and it doesn't work for them either, at least they have another solution that will always work and the option to modify the file system, if they so choose.

That's the Linux command line, right ?
#mount -o loop factoryfs.rfs /mnt/rfs
Otherwise on Mac OS X, you can use this:
#sudo mkdir /Volumes/RFS
#sudo hdiutil attach -imagekey diskimage-class=CRawDiskImage -nomount ARCHIVE.rfs
#sudo mount_msdos /dev/disk{n} /Volumes/RFS

Please don't forget when you finished on OSX to run:

i can't open the factoryfs.rfs of a samsung galaxy s. can anyone send me the /lib folder from galaxy s and the flash apk in the app folder...thanks

Two were exe files of significant size... Samsun_Mobile_USB_Driver.exe, and ToolLauncher-Bootstrap.exe. All the files apk files are probably empedded in the first of those, but no further extraction was possible from the .exe file using MagicISO. I'm trying to find the origianal VZW Vcast apk files that I stupidly deleted instead of just renaming. I need them so the EC02 update script will run. Any ideas, anyone?

Where is the thanks button!! It worked for me..!! I needed it!! one question: I am unable to extract one particular factoryfs.rf of one rom, MagicISO says it is not an image file. Can you help me there?
Use linux disk reader to open ext4 files (even .rfs files can be ext4) @neo yea magiciso says so on ext4 archives

.ops to .zip?
Hi guys I wanted to ask if there is any way of converting a .ops file rom to a .zip one That would be very helpful, because i want stock rom as base for mine Thanks EDIT: Okay it's not a .ops it's a .tar XD Okay I opened it with my winrar but i cant see nothing that makes sense there, system.rfs boot.img etc
Mate no questions in development section . Please delete it and move it to general , XDA rules
dont begin on doing it if you don't know what you're doing. Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda app-developers app
ask on general section
... You guys don't even help -_- Extract the tar with WinRAR/7zip Extract system.rfs using MagicISO and save contents to a new folder called: system Now you have a system folder and boot.img. Now you'll need an updater script. Preferably from my S5660DXKT8 ROM. Copy it's META-INF folder to the directory where you have your system folder & boot.img. Zip these 3 items & now you can flash on your Gio using a Custom Recovery P.S - Questions like these belong in the General thread. Hope this helped

Click to collapse FTF files are regular ZIP files. Open it with 7-Zip/WinRAR and you'll find some .sin files inside (.sin is a proprietary format used by Sony). Some of these .sin files (like system.sin) can be decrypted by Flashtool by going to Tools => Sin Editor => Extract data. This will leave you with an .ext4 file (like system.ext4). This file can be mounted and edited directly if you're on Linux or you can view and extract its contents by using ext2explore or another similar tool on Windows...
