if you still want to extract those files just upload them to rapid or somewhere else and give the address i am using ubuntu GNU/linux i may help you by extracting and repacking to tar.gz or zip whichever you want and send it back?

Hi,
I was wondering if there was a way to convert .zip files of ROMs/themes into system.img files so that they can be booted up via the android sdk emulator?
I've seen that it's possible to launch system.img files in the sdk emulator, but after searching for quite some time I wasn't able to pinpoint a method for creating system.img from update-cm-4.2.12.2-signed.zip (for example).
Thanks.

i made a post about those system.img files earlier here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609090
in theory it's possible using the mkfs.yaffs2 tool, but i'm not sure whether the emulator supports danger SPL roms, because the system image file size is limited in the emulator as well...

it's the mkfs.yaffs2 tool

Hi,
Thanks for the link, but I'm quite a newbie in these things, so could someone please walk me through process? I've downloaded the archive in the link.
How many times do I unzip it (I can unzip it up to three times and then I get 5 files numbered 1 through 5)? Where do I paste it? How do I use it? The explanation in the other thread was slightly too complicated for me sorry
Thanks
DT

I am looking to do the same thing
Get someone to Nandroid backup the ROM.
It creates a system.img, recovery.img, data.img, cache.img and boot.img.
Not the easiest method but it works
Can someone show me a way to reseal File/Folder to System.img.
I extract these file/folder from Stock Nexus 4 zip. What I want to do is install a font then zip it back to System.img so I can flash it.
Thank

There are ways to repack it (I've never done it myself, but if you search, you'll probably find some tools), but there is an easier way to just install a font: package it up in a recovery-flashable zip. A guide on how to create recover-flashable zips can be found here.
I managed to dd the recovery image from partition.
I tried use lot of tools from web mkbootimg, extractor, unpack and etc.
But none of it able to extract it contents. Dont know WTF how it build.
I only managed to use binwalk to extract the ramdisk folder but no kernel file,
so without kernel file I'm no able to pack it back.
recovery.img attached below,
Please help, XDA expert around the world. Thanks

Or just mount it to a virtual disk drive.

Hey all, I've looked all over an can't find the answer to this... I have a NAND backup I made using TWRP, however, I had the problem many have had with getting errors when trying to restore it. So I thought I'd try a different way by creating a TWRP flashable file from the NAND files. I have taken the files from the backup and extracted them using CYGWIN. I read a thread here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2746044
But I'm stuck on a couple of things... First, the part about using the META-INF folder from another ROM... I've checked the files in in the META-INF folder and notice that the updater-script is what loads the files and directories. But none of the META-INF files I have found matches my backup files.
The files I want to flash are the complete system folder, complete data folder and the boot.img file. Is it possibly to flash these with TWRP without the META-INF folder/files? If I have to use the META-INF how do I make sure all the files and folders are flashed?
Would it be better to create an ODIN flashable file and just use Odin to do the flash? If so should I put the system and data folders into one file and then use the boot.img (or would I put the boot.img finle into a tar) in the Bootloader spot in Odin?
Thanks in advance.
