I don't know for msm but if you have TWRP, backup boot.emmc.win will be actually your boot imgIt would be great if someone who has the instructions for using the msm tool for pulling boot.img from the phone itself could add those to this thread (for situations where there is no full .zip). I know such a method exists and was posted somewhere in this forum a few months ago, but I can't for the life of me find it.
That's useful info, thanks!I don't know for msm but if you have TWRP, backup boot.emmc.win will be actually your boot img
Even if TWRP does not support Data encryption (A12), you could still backup to OTG stick or external SD card (second SIM slot)
Worked for me.....
What happens when you try to sideload? What steps did you take to try and sideload?
What are we supposed to do with that?The tool in the OP didn't work to extract the boot image from ColorOS C.62 but this tool did, for anyone else who finds themselves having that issue in the future.

[TOOL] A QUICK Android OTA payload dumper
Made with Go. By utilizing goroutines, this can extract img files from (full) OTA payload.bin really quickly. See how fast this is: https://i.imgur.com/adpijqf Source Code: https://github.com/ssut/payload-dumper-go Prebuilt binaries...forum.xda-developers.com
Seriously, read the thread. It does the same payload extraction as the posted tool, only this one actually extracted all the images and the other one didn't.
Does it run on windows?Seriously, read the thread. It does the same payload extraction as the posted tool, only this one actually extracted all the images and the other one didn't.
You are a special one aren't you...

Just added a new section to my original post for this.Quick question as this is my first OnePlus device.

I'm asking where to get my ROM file, in order I should be able to extract the boot img?
