After flashing repacked system.img phone gets Stock on boot, or in inicialization
(27-04-2017, 05:11 PM)amaury1967 Hello, I have made some unpack and repack of stock system.img from my Alcatel Pop Star o TCL 5022D, just looking for an App that do this well. I used varios App but in all cases after flashing my phone with the repacked system.img, it gets stocked on boot, or in Android inicialization.
I want to ask you in particular about one App, “Auto Tool Unpack Repack .DAT & .IMG V3 x64”, cause I´ve see an tutorial of you about V2, and for sure you have big experience doing these, so I hope you could advice me about what I could doing bad. I follow your tutorial of V2, and I also got repacked system.img using V2, and also failed. I have done everything, I unpack system.img, and repacked it back directly fron system.folder, but I also convert system.img to system.new.dat, proccese it, and convert repacked system.new.dat back to repacked system.img. The Repacked system.img by both ways, are idéntical. Aditionally, when I compare, with Beyond Compare, stock system.img and repacked system.img, it shows too much differences beteewn them.Well, I hope you coul help me to solve this .Thanks in advance.
(02-05-2017, 04:32 PM)amaury1967 Hello, here I am again, back from a long May 1st weekend, well, answering your questions, I get file_contexts from unpacked boot.img. I´ve already used Lollipop n Marshmallow System Extractor and Repacker Version 1.60, but this tool give me system.new.dat and system.transfer.list, but does not give me a flashable system.img, neither a flasheable ZIP with: system.new.dat, system.transfer.list, file_contexts and META-INF folder. So, what I had to do was to convert system.new.dat plus system.transfer.list to system.img. I used diferent tools, but the final result after flashig (SP Flash Tool or TWRP 3.1.0-0) was the one I´ve said, phone stock on Android inicialization. Then, if you recommended this tool for unpack-repack, I supposse the problem was the conversion to system.img.
At the end, i´ve been days tryng to do this, I´ve probed almost 10 different tools, but no one gave me the final result I want, and I don´t know if it´s me, or if are the tools.
Let me explain you, I´ve been trying to learn and being able of doing this, unpack-repack system.img, so after that, I would try to port my phone with Android 6 or 7, cause I´ve not being able finding an installation for muy device (Alcatel Pop Star, TCL 5022D) on this OS. Besides that I ´m really getting in love with all these about making things with my phone and all these is getting very interesting to me, I really enjoy making all these things to my phone, pure hobbie, as I told you in other post, after you ported TWRP 2.8.7.0 for my phone, I continiuos learning and finally I could port TWRP 3.1.0-0 to my phone, and I enjoyed it a lot after being able of doing that, so, in the same way, i´d like being able of porting my phone with Android 6 or 7.
Well, this is all, hopping not bored you with all my speech. Have a great day, and remember, I´m from Cuba, the beatiful island where you´ll be allways welcome.
Thanks a lot for all your helps and teach
(03-05-2017, 02:43 PM)amaury1967 Well, yes, the only I´ve done was pass Monday, with ASSAYYED_KITCHEN_V1.82_STABLE Tool, and the result was the same, and, maybe the way I took, but the ZIP was not with system folder inside, but, system.img again, so it was not the best example. I althought think that working with this kind of enormous and sophisticated tool is more propense to mistakes, and I haven´t found any other tool to create flashable zip, only dsixda's Android Kitchen 0.224 (Kitchen + cygwin) but I think it´s too old and maybe it could fail with Android 5.0 wich is the one of my phone, besides it´s also an enormous, sophisticated, and with many details tool, and can cause mistakes, despited at today, I´m more prepared in this matters. Thos one, do create a Zip with system folder inside. I was working with this tool some month ago but I never flashed the created Zip, I could try now. So, what do you think?.....so, what less sophisticated tool do you recommend me to create flashabe Zip?.... I´m really frustated of not being able of doing this, unpack-repack system :o(, despite I know is something big to be done, but I´ve seen many people doing that so easylly. Anyway, I´ll stay trying, and I hope to be able soonelly, I´m sure I´ll can do it with your help.
Thanks a lot, have a great day
