Convert Wotan Flash to FTF? or SIN?

Is it possible to decrypt Wotan flash files? here example:
for E10:
The Client Window with 2.1.1.A.0.6 UK
The files it flash:
RXC65499ceaf51319f40237f173e65b0114
WinRar:
RXB55c89f553e952b96609d23e686a668ad
WinRar:
RXD4c3a39d5624f20d3fc783e3817502a66
WinRar:
*Now the problem is, when I rename the files to SIN and make bundle FTF with Flash Tool, it stuck, I try every file there, but it can't flash them
**I need it because I have Prototypes, and they flash-able only with Flash Tool.

Unfortunately not.
I tried a few weeks ago: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1126409#postcount15007369

what about rename all files to *.sin ? after that try to convert to ftf

Good luck in your endouvers, please call me when successful!

It IS possible!
Extract all the files wotan has downloaded in the /data/flashes folder with 7zip. (they have no file extension)
Now you should have files with extensions like "*.s01", "*.s02", and so on.
Rename all files to "*.sin"
In Flashtool (I used 0.6.8.0) menu Advanced -> Bundle Creation
Select all *.sin files, right arrow to Firmware content
Fill in the Device, Version and Branding field
Press OK
Now you have your selfmade *.ftf file!
Edit: It doesn't work on my LT18i! But it should!! You hear from me.

Work??
It's Work???

How do I extract ftf file so I can flash kernel.sin via fastboot?

[Q] How to edit system.img

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).

DO NOT PRESS 1 - IT's a waste of time!!
Just extract your ROM onto the dsixda kitchen (using WinRAR or 7zip)
Rename the folder to WORKING_xxxx
Where xxxx is your ROM name, or you can call it whatever
Make sure inside WORKING_xxxx you have:
META-INF
system
boot.img
Then hit 0 & 20

thanks all i done my work

[Q] [GT-I9192] Extract .img from original ROM

Hello guys, good evening!
I`ve downloaded the original Rom for S4 Mini Dual SIM and unzipped the file, and now I have the partitions image files...
I've already unpacked the system partition (system.img.ext4 file), but I can't unpack the boot.img and recovery.img files.
I'm using Ubuntu 13.10 x64 and I searched some threads on xda to unpack this but unsuccessful.
How can I unpack the img files to modify what I want?
Thank you so much!

You can unpack them via Android Kitchen. Search on XDA...

anyone can help me?

Hi! Just follow this guide... But start with step #10
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2642081
The first root from this device started with the jap version so you guys should find it easier to root than the global variant.

Ohh btw if you do that rooting method please do take note that after the procedure you would end up having a generic ROM and not the docomo ROM.

Can i flash the docomo ROM replace generic rom in the final step
Gửi từ SO-02F của tôi bằng cách sử dụng Tapatalk

You would need to create a ROM dump then... The final step is flashing the file z1c-43-uk.system.flashable.zip in recovery which contains a UK generic ROM. Now what you need to do if you want a docomo version is
1. Download flashtool
2. Extract system.sin in ftf file of docomo
3. Extract ext4 image from system.sin using flashtool
4. Extract the contents of system.ext4 and replace the ones in the z1c-43-uk.system.flashable.zip
then flash the zip file you just modified. You should then get a rooted docomo ROM. Kinda hard to do if you don't know how but that's the only way for now sorry I could probably create one for you but that would be after a couple of days as I'm pretty busy this week.

tks u so much for help me, i will try it now and if this isnt work, i will ask u for help a next week :victory:
tks u ver two :laugh:

Ok here's a little more easier guide for you....
1. Download Docomo ftf
2. Extract the ftf using winrar, 7zip, winzip or any archiving tool.(I suggest 7zip though)
3. Get the system.sin
4. Open flashtool. http://www.flashtool.net/download.php
5. Navigate to Tools->Sin Editor
6. Select system.sin
7. Select Extract Data button
8. Flashtool should dump system.ext4 image
9. Download this application http://www.diskinternals.com/linux-reader/
10. Open application and open system.ext4
11. It upon opening it should show system files.
12. Extract everything and put it inside z1c-43-uk.system.flashable.zip
Special note: z1c-43-uk.system.flashable.zip has a tgz archive inside. You need to put all the system files you extracted inside the tgz file for it to work.
13. Flash your modified sz1c-43-uk.system.flashable.zip thru recovery
14. Done.

If you do that in Windows then you lose all the file permissions information. I do not think it is really a good idea. It is much more reliable to mount the ext4 image in Linux with options "-o loop,ro" and then create the system.tgz natively using tar in Linux.
I have done that myself (with 142 DE-T ftf) and it worked just fine at first try.

Ahh you're right! Just looked at the script right now and it doesn't set permissions upon installation. I was assuming it would like any usual flashable zips.
