Awesome tool man, this shoulda been around so long ago!

Delete the files /etc/group and /etc/passwd once you extract everything, it is mucking things up.

Dropbox link doesn't work... ? I attached it to this post instead

For those with the error... read the thread, the answer is in post #23

You can pretty much extract any file from the stock odin tar and then create individual tars out of it with this tool. I just extracted system.img.ext4 and tarred it individually then flashed it and it worked. Allowed me to return system to stock without flashing the entire stock tarball.

I've only tried it with individual images. In order to do multiple ones you need to follow the order of the partition of the device you are creating it for.
This tutorial could help some, http://www.rwilco12.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=92

My question is, what does --group=1 does that it fixed the error?

Just used this, with the mods suggested Worked great on my Win8 x64 laptop. Thanks to all who contributed!

What I am wondering is would this application work to make modem.bin files into md5's or tar aswell

Yes it can. However, odin can flash modem.bin and non-hlos.bin files directly on the phone/cp entry. Therefore, making a single tar for modem.bin is useless since it can be flashed directly

 

[qxps]

Yep I currently do it like that but have found modems packaged on md5 write without error.

Thank you very much have found another great use for an already awesome app

You can change the bat file. Modify the input files and the output name if you want. Just make sure the output name is modified in all the lines.

You can also use a variable so you only have to set the output name once. For example,

@echo off
set tarname="M919_FNB4_Modem"
bin\tar --group=1 -H ustar -c NON-HLOS.bin modem.bin > %tarname%.tar
bin\md5sum -t %tarname%.tar >> %tarname%.tar
bin\mv %tarname%.tar %tarname%.tar.md5

Ok so i made this tool for personal use, but i saw a lot of people wanted this, so here it is

Step 1. Download it from ATTACHMENTS
Step 2. Decompress it to a folder
Step 3. Download your recovery for your SAMSUNG device from here
http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager/
Step 4. Rename it to "recovery.img" then move it to the folder you decompressed the tool at earlier
Step 5. Open the "Runme" file and theres your recovery.tar.md5 File ready to flash with odin

please if you used my tool give me some credit and relink to this page as the tool you used to make the file

I had the same error that several others had when trying this out (out of gid_t range). I fixed it by editing Runme.bat and adding --group=1 to the tar line so that it looks like this:

bin\tar --group=1 -H ustar -c recovery.img > recovery.tar

Great tool, once editing this it did exactly what I needed! Thanks!

You da man, thanks a lot, that worked for me now as well! :good:

I flashed a bad kernel in my GTi9070. I've aosp kernel in boot.img form. can I make it odin flashable using this tool? thnx

 

[crobs808]

My kept giving me an error or an invalid TAR file (11K in size). I always 'Run as administrator' but that was actually causing my problem. When I just ran it via double-click it ran fine. Weird. I am just so used to having to Run as admin that it took 10 failures before I realized to run it normally.

 

[shaka_de_virgo]

for those who have the error that does not create the files,
the error is that when you save the cwm downloaded must save it with the name recovery. already that if we change it then does not work.

so don't mark error,

and this is the code that I have in my runme

@ECHO off
bin\tar --group=1 -H ustar -c recovery.img > recovery.tar
bin\md5sum -t recovery.tar >> recovery.tar
bin\mv recovery.tar recovery.tar.md5
@ECHO Thank me at xda @cabloomi

Not worked for me and gave some errors .But i installed gnuwin32 (Tar package) then tried your 3 commands manually and flashed one of the partitions and worked. thanks.

 

[antukecik]

thumbs up

This worked for me on windows 8.1 X64 after I edited the bat file as explained in post #41, and of course followed the instructions as given in the OP.
