If your PC using linux system,I recommend you to use Virtual Box.
If U using windows system,you must configuration Java environment first,and then install a software who name is Cygwin,You can use it to extract the system.img and boot.img.
when zipping a rom in 7zip can you set it to ultra,if not what is the best setting to use?
Thanks for the help
I don't think your suppose to compress it at all but I could be wrong
I was going to say the same thing as Deuce - in this situation, the zip file is just a container to hold it all together in one file

I don't think the zip itself can be compressed, but you can put the system package into a tar, then compress it into a LZMA file within the zip. Any kernel/modem update folders would still be in the root of the zip with the META-INF and tools as well. Obviously the updater script would have to be changed to unzip the system package during install.
Bonsai started using this method with 4.1.3. For comparison, the 4.1.3 ROM package is about 20 MB smaller than the 4.1.1 package.

The attached should be all you need. split_updata.pl will extract the system image which you can then mount directly. splitfile.c will extract the mbn files and boot.img. Use abootimg to extract the kernel and initrd and then cpio to get the root fs from the initrd. Obviously you will want to use a linux box for this.

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).

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.

Is that phone totally abandoned by htc ? i just baught it 2 days ago
if saw i would replace it with other phone
can any one just answer it simply
thats what i gues : no software , kernel source downloads available for this device . i even tried to contact htc about lp update and the Simply don't know
I think the lollipop firmware is here
http://ir-file.com/portal/index.php?dir=Firmware/HTC/HTC_Android/A50ML_DTUL/
We shouldn't expect any lollipop firmware unless maybe we flash it.
My phone had lollipop out of the box but I flashed kitkat so that I could root it and modify it, but I found it to be too boring, I'm looking to revert to lollipop
You try and tell me if it worked

So I downloaded the zip file sized about 1.8gb.
On extracting the zip file, I only get three files:
Android - info. txt - 92B
Userdata.img - 136034KB
Cache.img - 6972KB
I don't know where the other files have disappeared to

So when I repaired the zip file with winrar, I was able to recover these files.
Scatter file shows HTC_A50ML which is the D820ys, it comes with Lollipop out of the box.
This zip file is encrypted, only if one could find a password to crack it, or if someone has the knowhow to extract this kind of files
d820ts
is this update available for d820ts???
