[NEED HELP] Extract, edit and reflash Product.img

[Hitman478™]

Hi to all! Like the title said, i'm trying to extract from 7T product partition img, then i want to edit it and re-flash it back.

Which is the fastest way to do so?

to get to the image you can use the payload dumper and unpack the payload.bin contained in the firmware pack then you have the produckt.img whether you can edit this or whether it also has write protection I cannot tell you unfortunately .

Maybe you can do this using the edl.py script that's available on GitHub.
This script allows you to use some of the qualcomm sahara protocol commands for stuff like reading and saving partition from the phone to your computer, or to write a partition from the computer to the phone internal memory.
Also with msm tool, you can enable the readback mode that allows you to backup single or multiple partitions (you just have to check the ones you want).
