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
this is the file i downloaded. its a wb zip file. so i unzip it. i have a ziped and a unziped file on my desk top. then i open flashtool in administer. advance> bundle creation>select source folder.

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.

Firstly you have to install update.zip extract it from the rar/zip you have download and copy that file in the root of your sd card.
Also check if you have download the file properly and there are no spaces in between the name of the file.
And lastly try using a 2+ recovery.

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.
Sent from my R800i using XDA
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.

How to convert kdz rom to zip rom

Hi, Can anyone tell me how to convert kdz rom to zip ROM?
Sent from my LG-P700 using xda premium
Firstly u need to extract KDZ file with LGExtract. It will extract cab file and dz file within. Then u needs to extract boot.img and system.img with DZDecrypt, but to get boot.img u need to use 0.5 version. For system.img use 1.0 version. If u have that 2 files, download dsixda kitchen and follow what screen says

Sry, you meant you can't extract cabinet file? Remove cab file integration in 7zip and it will open in windows explorer.

Yes. I have done so, but I still do not unzip the file. cab. I have tried the following in cmd:
D: \ LG \ lgextract-KDZ F180K20K_00.kdz
after it is completed, I get the file F180K20K_00.cab
Next, I used the command:
D: \ LG \ 7z x (or e) F180K20K_00.cab
and I get the error message: Error: Can not open file as archive
After all, I've tried many versions and 7z LGExtract but they all failed. So what is the reason? Does windows version?
p / s: sorry for my english is very bad.

I've read that thread before. But I can not unzip the file. Cab with 7zip or winrar.
In case 2, used to extract UpTestEX.exe. KDZ ->. dz, I can not unzip it. 2 dz by DZextract and DZDecrypt tool.
The reason is that the OS version or ROM version?
Sorry, I just recently see that you're trying to extract F180 (Optimus G)'s firmware. These methods are only for first generation of L series (L3, L5, L7). It certainly won't work on newer phones. (Yes, although the format is still kdz, the extracting method will differ between devices).
if i extract/ convert a kdz file to a zip zom can i install it in virtualbox
i installed android 4.3 on virtualbox so can i use my phone firmware on my pc??

No. You don't use anyone ROM in computer. You only can mod, cook it. Demo just on the phone. The dev-app can use Android Studio/eclipse.

(Dev){sony}[Q] Make .sin Rom file

Hi
Is there anyway to make .sin file from the system folder and put it into a ftf file and flash it through flash mod?

No, that is not possible as sin files are signed by Sony. Only Sony can do that. Btw, wrong section.
