I want to try out the csc file from a i9000b rom on my i9000 but all I can find is single file roms.
Can I somehow extract the CSC file from it?
Rom is tar file unzip it .win rar works .
If inside is then image files open with Ultra ISO or similar .
Or build a rom with the CSC file you want in it .

None of the files are ISO. I get these files:
cache.rfs
factorfs.rfs
modem.bin
param.lfs
zImage
Also, the link you provided does not have any CSC for Brazilian portuguese. That's why I'm trying to extract it from the Brazilian SGS i9000b.
Hi,
I try to make an odin flashable custom rom based on JVH.
The PHONE package still the same.
The CSC was replaced by a multi-csc with many france apn.
On the PDA package:
-i extract my pda package with 7z
-then all my factoryfs in a new folder with magiciso
-delete some apps
-use a script for deodex, zipalign and sign for gingerbread
-implement busybox and root
-use magiciso to reopen the factoryfs base to delete all and add my factoryfs folder that i've create previously.
-replace kernel by the last stable fugumod.
Then i repack with cygwin and flash with odin and pit 512.
Where is the trouble?
ps: this is just for a try, i think add many changes after this first step is passed!
So I'm trying to make a kb2 odin package and I'm wondering if someone can help me? I started a thread here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1263379) and like I just posted I'm getting a failed flash on another captivate that I am not going to have access soon. It fails after factoryfs, I think on or after recovery.bin. anybody have any ideas? I think i have pulled the correct items from /dev/block and the sizes are factoryfs.rfs = 278.0 mb, modem.bin = 12.5 mb, recovery.bin = 7.5mb, and zimage = 7.5mb. Do these values seem correct?

Heimdall package is easier and better

It looks like your missing cache.rfs and dbdata.rfs.
If you are putting it together as a 1 file flash, you should have
Factory.rfs, cache.rfs modem.bin and zImage.
If you are putting it together as a 3 file, you have to use a dbdata.rfs file in the pda file and a cache file in the csc file.
Hello there
I've wanted to get the stock logo_q1.jpg and charging_q1.jpg back from the kka image. So i downloaded it and extracted the tar from it. Then i extracted the content of the tar-File.
Now i have the following files:
boot.bin
cache.img
factoryfs.img
hidden.img
modem.bin
param.lfs
sbl.bin
zImage
I think the two jpg-files should be in one of these files, but how can i extract them, so that i could see what they have inside?

Hi,
I want to flash XXLA4 ROM with OLBKL2 CSC and CF-Root LA4 using CWM Manager in one go.
I have these files:
N7000XXLA4_N7000OXALA4_N7000XXLA4_HOME.tar.md5
N7000DXLA1_N7000OLBKL2_N7000DXKL2_HOME.tar.md5
CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LA4-v5.0-CWM5.tar
Inside the ROM package there are:
factoryfs.img -> this is System files (PDA), I will use XXLA4
modem.bin -> this is Phone modem, I will use XXLA4
zImage -> this is Kernel, I will use CF-Root XXLA4
cache.img -> this is CSC files, I will use OLBKL2
hidden.img -> what is this? should I use the file from DXLA1 or XXLA4?
I searched but found conflicting answers. Some said that it's related to CSC, so I should use the file from DXLA1. But, leaked samsung rom only have cache.img inside MULTI-CSC tar file (for example GT-N7000-MULTI-CSC-OXALA3.tar).
I also noticed that some of the ROM package that I extracted have the same modified date for factoryfs.img and hidden.img, while different modified date for cache.img; meaning it's related to System files (factoryfs.img).
So, to know from which file should I use hidden.img from (DXLA1 or XXLA4), I want to know what is inside hidden.img.
Thank you so much in advance~!

cache is CSC
if you want to use another CSC file, just select cache in Mobile Odin OR in case of CWM, when it ask you to select file for Cache, you have to point to CSC file(OBL KL2 CSC e.g.)
I said you earlier too, that will wipe your data, as i remember you have not concern about losing data i think.

Yes, I know about cache.img is the CSC files, and I know how to use it with Mobile Odin or CWM Manager.
You are right, I don't mind factory wipe, infact I always full wipe before any firmware update.
What I want to know is about hidden.img...
Yes, I'm curious, I want to know and learn what is this image file contain.
Oh, and yes, I have flashed to XXLA4 using hidden.img from XXLA4...
It works.. But I'm still curious and want to know what is it..
Thanks again~
Bump. Any more info on what's inside the hidden.img file?

Use magic iso to mount that image file and see whats inside it
Well on my Motorola, it contains boot animation, wallpapers, carrier related settings (subsidy lock), and nvitems.
Hope that helps
It has binary counter trigger!! X10 lol
SHOT from my LOADED GT-N7000!!
Hidden.img is exclusive to carrier branded Stock ROM's.
In case of such ROM's cache.img + hidden.img together constitute the CSC. So my guess is hidden.img has some of the carrier specific bloat!
EDIT: Just saw that the hidden.img from the xwla4 ROM contains files related to the Samsung Gamehub (ngmoco)!
Thnx!
Delete hidden.img

Any idea if it's possible to delete "hidden.img" from the CSC tar file and then flash it to keep everything but the bloat?

yeh mate;
rename extracted file from xxxxxx.tar.mtd to xxxxx.tar and it should turn into a winrar compressed file
then you can delete hidden.img
after you compress them together and the only way i know how to do that is with the Unified Android Toolkit

Open the zip with Total Commander, delete hidden.img and rename the file without the .md5 extension.
Only leave .tar at the end of the file name.

pure BS. MagicISO or Daemon tools cannot open this file.

Ignorance is a bliss. Go google yourself on simg2img instead of following a 4 year old tip
