Extracting files from ftf files.

Im on ubuntu at the moment and i need to know how to extract the sin files from an ftf firmware.

Rename it to .zip instead of .ftf and unzip it!

if you want to extract the sin file use sin2img.exe then unyaffs.exe to extract the img file.

You have to run the .exe files in Windows

Can anyone confirm this?

or..... just install 7zip on your PC. right click on the ftf files and select unzip.. Done.
I use 7zip for these all the time. Fast

This method requires your device to be rooted.....
1) Firstly check whether the application can run on arm v6...(go to app /lib/if their is folder named armebi then u can install it on sgy)
2) check whether app requires lib files...if yes then copy it to your sdcard
3) now go to system/etc/permissions
and check xml files which required for app to be installed...
Copy that xml file to your sdcard
4) open above xml file ...
In that file, their given a framework file......
Copy that framework file from /system/framework to your sdcard
5) copy all files at appropriate place in your system...change permissions and reboot......
6) after that install apk.....and enjoy.....
Sorry for bad english.....
