When you extracted the file.. He created a folder name [GingerFroyo.1.4.16]
Just open this Folder and inside you will see another folder in the same name..
This is one that you should copy in xrecovery/backup/ folder.. this file contains 4 files..

Just make sure you have downloaded the new one. Extract it on your PC and you will have a folder named GingerFroyo 1.4.16
Put that folder in SD > xrecovery > backup
Restore and make full wipe

maybe my download was the problem..i'll try to download it again...thank you for helping

better try to redownload, and see what will happen

I just downloaded the file just now, and when I extracted the file it came with the folder [GingerFroyo.1.4.16].. and inside that folder I saw a folder again in the same name..
this is the folder as just copy in xrecover/backup

yep, there is 4 file..drag the folder again to sd->xrecovery->backup. and put the folder there. reboot with xrecovery, choose back up and restore, select restore->GingerFroyo.1.4.16. after finish installation, make sure u make factory reset (full wipe). then reboot.

The dev folder isn't needed for anything other than devs from what I remember, all you need to copy is the root folder (this goes in the android folder eg SD/Android/Root) and replace your existing zImage with the one included, simply put extract all minus the dev folder

camera n compass u flash it in xrecovery. u can flash both then reboot without having to reboot after each flash.
as for mddi u need to do it manually for now i don't think doixanh made a xrecovery zip yet
the meta-inf folder basically just contains a script to tell xrecovery where to copy the files.

problems with flashtool

im unable to make a ftf file with flashtool. i unzip the file. then search it, select it in source folder. The flashtool never opens the file and subfiles. It never displays in the left column. Ive started with a zip file, then unziped it. Ive also tried winRAR to extract the files. Im using 2.9.1 Java 1.6.0_24 os 6.1
Any help or tips would be appreciated
Hey, you must sure that in the zip file just one file .ftf, if so, extract it. If there are 4 files like system, data ... you must rename the .zip file to .ftf

All the files you want to bundle need to be in one folder and look similar to this
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27083072/XDA/files.JPG
Then open flashtool and find the folder when you get to teh folder the location shoold appear blank, click open and you will get this
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27083072/XDA/bundle.JPG
copy them to teh right, fill in the top, Device, Version, Branding and click OK

OK, what you have is wolfbreaks rom, this is installed on your phone via xrecovery not an ftf file, if you want to install it you need to install xrecovery on your phone first, then install this from there.
You need a rooted rom for this, so is your rom rooted and what version are you on 2.1 or 2.3
I have x recovery on my phone know. That's how I upgraded from 2.1 to 2.3, because my phone is sim unlocked. Super user is v2.3.6.1 I followed a thread on the upgrade. I can link which thread when I'm home.

Pull it from your ROM's zip file (the one you flashed to your device), copy it to your sdcard and from there push it to your phone with your favorite Rom/file explorer.

[Help wanted] How to flash files and folders ?

I've extracted my system.img and have on my computer all the files and folder's from said image.
What I'd like to know, is there anyway to be able to flash those files and folders onto my phone?
Say for instances I make changes to some of those files(eg system/lib) , how can I flash or copy those files or folders I've made changes too back to my phone
I should add I'm using a lineageOs 7.1.1 and a twrp recovery
You need root for these sorts of things apparently.

You cannot flash a file or a folder .
You can delete and cut and paste files/ folders .
Nandroid system backup is what most would do .

Hmm that might work, I could take a nandroid, modify the system there, but I'm not sure if I can recompile the nandroid and have it still workable. I'm pretty sure you can flash folders and files, in fact I have a few zip files that do exactly that, I'm just unsure of the exact process, I believe it would involve creating an updater script, it also would seem that no developer has looked at my question lol
You asked how to flash folders not how to make zip .Look at any zip and see the layout and paths what to do .
Or open rom zip cut and paste your files close and flash.Nandroid restore if a problem .

Thanks for your feedback, yes I asked how to flash files and folder's, but that doesn't exclude zip files as the delivery system for said files. I'll look into other ROMs, but most nougat ROMs use a different file structure
XDA forum hardware development hacking etc should have details how to make a zip ##
