[Tool]Converter Bin-to-Zip

This tool is for the conversion of meizu's bin formatted rom files to zip. I didn't make the tool, but I can't recall where I got it either.

I made the tool. There's a topic on meizume dedicated to it but feel free to discuss it here.
http://d-h.st/users/iSilver
It is quite bloated because of the Qt dlls (couldn't be arsed to recompile the whole beast statically) and that doesn't count the VC 2008 runtime. Oh well.
I have found it is essentially good for converting stock bins to zips, as the other way round won't be helpful for CN devices - a check in the Mz recovery has a special code path for HK devices (based on /proc/uboot_version), which accepts all stuff regardless of whether it's signed updates or not. That's why you could flash anything, prerooted ROM, or even a su package (no need to mess with TPsparky indeed).
OTH, the CN version:
- checks sig of what it flashes (thus only stock updates may be flashed)
- had a (RSA ?) checksum for each partition and thus cannot be written to freely (e.g. mod the recovery image)
- is the reason my next phone won't be a Mz

I suppose I'm lucky to own a HK MX then. Honestly, they make the best phone that I've handled aside from an iPhone (don't get me wrong, I'm just referring to the build quality.) Thanks for the tool!
We need a kernel dev if your up for it as well. Custom recovery would be a lifesaver for this phone. I'll credit you in the thread as well!

How about this:
1/ Extract the contents of an stock recovery_uboot.img
you obtain a recovery-uboot.img-kernel.zImage and recovery-uboot.img-ramdisk.cpio.gz
2/ Flash recovery-uboot.img-kernel.zImage where kernel ("zImage" in update) for normal boot goes
/dev/block/mmcblk0p6​3/ Flash [(64-byte header)+recovery-uboot.img-ramdisk.cpio.gz] where ramdisk ("ramdisk-uboot.img" in update) for normal boot goes
/dev/block/mmcblk0p7​
and try to boot normally. Do you think the recovery that's normally invoked via VolUp+Power would show up?
EDIT: I posted instructions for dismembering such an image @ http://www.meizume.com/showthread.php?p=158029

I'm trying to use this tool to convert the Flyme 2.0.3 update.bin to a zip file so I can extract a boot.img file, and I'm getting an error. Has the format of the update.bin file changed?

Mighty TwoPointZero mate, as MX3 CN version finally hits the market today, is there any chances renewing your tool so that I can get my hands on the new V3.0 update.bin for MX3? Thanks in advance and keep up the great work.

Thank you sooo much mate for the heads up! Now I can extract new flat icons extracted from MX3 OS to work with my own theme.
With edited icons my phone looks so FlymeOS 3ish now. @TwoPointZero mate, I salute you.

Is this tool no longer available? When I click the "Download Now" link, it just brings up a new tab with a grey blank page.
If it's still available, can someone provide me a mirror link please?

Modded Version - FLYME 5.6.3.22 Beta

Hi men,
I've tried to flash the latest beta ( 5.6.3.22 ) ZIP after having modded it in order to :
* modify LCD density ( from 480 to 380 )
* delete ALL unuseful Meizu' Apps ( APK )
* include MZ Account ( APK )
But there're integrity checks so... FIRMWARE CORRUPT. In the end, I flashed original ZIP file, as downloaded.
Somebody knows how to bypass the check ?

Which version of meizu. Mx4, mx5, mx4 pro, mx5 pro?

I think that the only way to bypass the check is to use TWRP.

links does not work

The link is has been updated

I am working the new version which will have alot of features. It has alot of work, we are getting rid of that userinterface for 3d using ogre3d. The new version will allow you to choose which interface you preffer, but I'll concentrate on the 3d version. It will also include mtk flashing where you will just choose like say infinix 551 (remove frp) or readbackup format etc, devs will have access to a new mtk flashing system to add new phones support.

FOLLOW MY PROGRESS WITH THE RE-ANIMATION EDITION ON TRELLO
The new cloud_commander will function with a service.

Device Tree, Kernel, Vendor for TB-8504f?

Looking for the Device Tree, Kernel, and Vendor for this tablet.
I am just learning. Is there a process for getting these from an existing tablet?
Thank you!
Darran

I found the device tree for the a similar tablet here:
https://github.com/Matshias/twrp_android_device_tb_8504x

Someone on reddit told me this:
If you can find something with similar specs and the same processor you can try adapting it to your device. The Samsung Note 4 and the S5 use the same sources with some minor adjustments. I've had good luck getting some kernel sources from Samsung just by contacting them and asking, but they're the only brand I have any experience with.
For vendor files you can try TheMuppets found here: https://github.com/TheMuppets
Or you can try to extract them yourself using this guide- https://wiki.lineageos.org/extracting_blobs_from_zips.html
Best of luck to you.

Device tree and vendor are not the problem. Kernel source code is the thing that is required. Was going to buy tab4 10 but won't if lenovo is not willing to release the kernel source. I've repeatedly asked them to do so in the forums but they never reply. Maybe try mailing lenovo support and see if that helps...

thank you - do you know if they have a dev support e-mail or is it the standard support e-mail?

Your kernel sources are already available. Its included in the kernel of Tab 4 8 Plus.

Some things will match others need to be modified as per the non plus model. Vendor files can be extracted from the device and the device tree can be set up by referencing the plus model since they are not too different. As per the kernel try prebuilt first and see if it boots

Tab4 8 plus has snapdragon 625. Go to gsmarena and search by snapdragon 425 and you'll get a few devices then go from there and see if they have a custom rom. If they do then find the device tree for that device from github and modify it as required. For vendor extract it from the device. There are quite a few tutorials on xda. As for kernel download the one provided by lenovo for tab4 8 plus (it'll work for non plus model as well). As for defconfig extract it from boot.img again there are tutorials available.
I'll probably try to get los running on the tab4 10 later

I found the kernel and some associated files here:
https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/us/en/...ntent=20190613_20190613184825&linkId=68972849
I found a similar an MSM8917 Device Tree here:
https://github.com/redmidevs/android_device_xiaomi_rolex
I looked through muppets and didn't find any vendor files for the TB-850 or any TB devices. Will work on extracting the vendor files and getting them up on muppets. Can I use the extract-files.sh file from lineage to extract the vendor files for the TB-850?

A good choice. Vendor files should be from the same device like device tree.
Use this one:
https://github.com/redmidevs/android_vendor_xiaomi_rolex/tree/lineage-15.1
You need just the camera blobs blobs from your device. But you can do this later.
More important are the firmware files because those are unique for every device.
Replace thos files with the one on your device:
https://github.com/redmidevs/androi...tree/lineage-15.1/proprietary/vendor/firmware
I suggest you to build Lineage15.1 first. The kernel works with Android 8.1.

Thank you for the guidance - looking to give this a try today

Need ZenParts Flashable Zip

ZenParts is a utility that enables ZenMotions & Zen tweaks such as Audio Gain, Vibration strength, etc.
I've been searching ZenParts module for my X00TD (Max Pro M1). I'm planning to use it on Lineage OS which obviously don't come with it.
There are also ROMs out there that include ZenParts, but I need the module so that I can use on the Non existed ROMS too.
Posting such files or links is appreciated !

There's also github source code for it?
https://github.com/saurabhchardereal/ZenfoneParts/blob/master/README.md
Can anyone compile the code & make a flashable zip if possible.

You can't make a flashable zip because it need the device tree --> need to build a new ROM.
