im trying to extract the nhb file from the open touch biggie ver 4.0. im on my last step and ive been looking around all day on how to extract that file. i have 7 zip and winrar and ive tried to use both but they would not work (i mean im know doin something right, lol) ive been reading all day because im reluctant to ask on here but i need help. what am i donin wrong. i read the noobs guide, the wiki guide and just bout every guide on here so please if you know can u help me. i just need this last step to finish my first flash
you downloaded the file, right? you should open the zip/rar file with 7zip or winrar. Then, drag/extract the file to your hardspl/uspl folder
yea i did dl it...that must be the step that i am missing dragging it to the hard spl folder. i used winrar to extract the files from the folder. then when the box comes up with the file drag it to the hard spl folder, then click that ruu folder? i think i might have to go back a re-read that last step because ive been so focused on getting that file out that i forgot what to do. thanks in advace for answering me
problem fixed. i was overthing things..after i downloaded the biggie file i extracted the file using 7 zip then i drug the file (nhb) and put it in the rom utility folder and ran it. problem solved this site is great. hopefully whoever else is searching for this problem finds this andit helps
I found this on http://cliq-development.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=13
hopefully this can help anyone who is trying to develop a way for root on the cliq.
To get where we are at in development you must learn about a few things
.SHX = A re-flashing file similar to a .nbh on the HTC brand. It is a full re-flash of everything on the phone, full stock. When extracted it creates three files the main one is the CG2
CG2 = A file extracted from the shx that hold the main partitions that will be flashed to the phone.

How to extract a shx
(http://modmymoto.com/forums/showthread.php?t=525344)
A developer by the name of Meiner Einer created a program named SbfRecalc. With this program we can extract three files and as i stated above the most important one is the CG2
How to extract a CG2
(http://modmymoto.com/forums/showthread.php?t=525477)
A developer by the name of Skrilax_CZ created a program named CG2 Parser. With this program we can extract all of the files within the CG2.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After you extract all of the files from the CG2 you will find that some of the names were similer to the partitions of the cliq. With a little file manipulation i recreated a boot.img and a recovery.img from some of the files. The guys over at modmymoto dumped a full system partition.
(http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?t ... oot_Images)
To recreate both the boot.img and the recovery.img just do these simple steps
1. Create a directory and put either bootsec.mbn or recoverysec.mbn from the CG2 dump inside it
2. Download the split_bootimg.pl from the link above and run it with the file in the directory to get both a kernel and a ramdisk file.
3. Using the mkbootimg from the android source code you can recombine the kernel and the ramdisk files to create your boot.img/recovery.img strait from the re-flash file
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With the system dump from modmymoto and my boot.img(+a little root) I created an update.zip file with root ready to be flashed when the keys are ready.
This is where we are at any help would be greatly appreciated.
Wow, nice work!
This could really so with a sticky...
Thanks for the update! The cliq goes hard. Once rooted its ova, best android phone on tmo!
Nice! It would be really great if you could repost this at android-devs.org over in the cliq development section of the forum
Since XDA is only for HTC phones and most people here most likely don't have the cliq and there really isn't a correct forum to have this posted in..
I'd reccomend using android-devs.org forums

It's pieced into 3 parts, so use programs like Winzip or 7-zip and extract as normal.

sorry i don't have nh1 so i can't help you but what about four threads for the same thing , it's not realy serious man if you need help just post one time
if you have a pc :
domload your rom from Sam
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/36186/G7102XWUBNI2_G7102OLBBNI2_XSE.zip/
--extract it yoy will have G7102XWUBNI2_G7102OLBBNI2_XSE.tar.md5 use 7zip and extract it
--When you have completed extracting all of them, you'll find many files including many .img files. For Apps you need to extract system.img. Unlike normal nandroid backup's system.img file which in yaffs, this stock one in different. So, unyaffs tool can't unpack the system.img
--To extract the system.img, download this tool: sgs2toext4 (created by drphrozen). On extracting it you'll have sgs2toext4.jar file.
--Open a command window and set the directory where you have .jar file.
--Now type sgs2toext4.jar and press enter.
--The .jar will run in a new window & will ask you to drag & drop the system.img file there. Do the same and wait till the process completes.
--When the process completes, you'll find a file named system.ext4.img in the same folder where you had the system.img file.
--Now download ext2reader and install it. Then open the program open your system.img.ext4
--Now navigate in to find the apk you need and extract it copy to your phone

Unfortunately this doesn't work. When you drop the system.img.ext4 file onto the sgs2ext4 tool, no file is produced. The tool just keeps endlessly repeating:
"system.img.ext4 32 B 0 B/s"
I think that tool is too old (2.5 years old) and doesn't support the newest Samsung firmwares.

The T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910T) NK4 firmware. I can't find any instructions online on extracting Samsung firmwares other than these, which were originally written up by rwilco12 a long time ago and reposted endlessly.

I found that the Linux method works on my Mac. Took a ton of tinkering and restarting the emulator on my machine.
sgs2ext4.jar did not work for me in Windows. It just hangs.

The SAMMOBILE firmware or the system.img? I'm not yet downloading it. Let's see if I can resume the download.
Hello everyone.
I want to create my own Custom ROM. I want to make it based on Stock ROM, but I don't know how to extract it.
I downloaded the firmware from SamMobile, extracted the .tar.md5 file with 7-Zip and got the *.img files.
I read some guides about how to use Android Kitchen but I don't know how to start with the Stock ROM to make my ROM based on it, and then, use the Kitchen.
Sorry for my English.
Thanks in advance.
Greetings!
Same procedure. Extract the .img with 7zip.

It didn't work. I get a message saying "Can not open file as archive".
Any answer?
There's loads of guides around, maybe adjust your google search terms.
Seriously, there are a massive amount of guides for this, you can't be looking very hard
