Thank you so much for this! I am interested in themeing the stock ROM, and I'm using ArchiKitchen to help in the deodexing(last time i tried any themeing, it was on JB and the only way i knew how to theme was on a deodexed ROM). In the process of recreating the ROM, ArchiKitchen asks for the kernel path since it doesn't seem to be specified in the stock system.img. Would the system path be the correct path to use or is there one that I missed? Any help is appreciated!
EDIT:
Upon selecting the system path, ArchiKitchen responded with this:
The final effect is:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p37");
I guessing that this means i should specify the boot path instead. I won't make a move until i know for sure, though.

INFO Partition Block Changes between 4.4.4/5.0 Soak and newest 5.0 OTA

Seems like the partition block numbers have changed between 4.4.4/first 5.0 leak and the newest 5.0 OTA. What does this mean? Be VERY careful when flashing stuff using the block number (mmcblk0p37) The partition you are trying to flash might have changed and you could brick your ****. Use by-name instead

Q: How to backup modem

I have unlocked my Australian xt1572 and booted twrp with the following command:
fastboot boot twrp.img
Then I made a nandroid backup selecting all the options apart from /data
Does this backup my original modem as a part of the backup or is there a specific way to back up my modem from twrp?
I want to make sure that I can revert back to stock (Vodafone) so I can return to original state by restoring the nandroid backup i made and apply the 6.0 ota when its get released down here.
-Ivar

This is something I am trying to find out as well. Anyone able to confirm it?

Run "ls -al /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name" in TWRP's terminal or ADB while in TWRP.
You need root if you want to run this command while in Android with USB debugging on.
Look for modem, fsg, modemst1, and modemst2.
Once you find them, make note of the blocks.
For example, here are the partitions of the Pure Edition:
ls -al /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name
DDR -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p4
aboot -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p5
abootBackup -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p12

"modem" = /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
"fsg" = /dev/block/mmcblk0p24
"modemst1" = /dev/block/mmcblk0p20
"modemst2" = /dev/block/mmcblk0p21
To back them up in Terminal:
For modem: dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 of=/sdcard/NON-HLOS.bin
For modemst1: dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p20 of=/sdcard/modemst1
For modemst2: /dev/block/mmcblk0p21 of=/sdcard/modemst2
For fsg: dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 of=/sdcard/fsg.mbn
Check on your internal storage for those files and save them somewhere.

As you can see "mmcblk0p18" belongs to splash partiton.
I used "dd" command to dump splash.img on sdcard with adb shell.
But now what?
How to edit it?
I've searched for many hours but came up with mediatek or HTC thereads which is pretty annoying
Tools I've tried so far--> Android Kitchen, Kernel Kitchen, Logo Builder.
Please help me through this.. I desperately want to make a splash image for my device.
Thanks.
