I'm a LG 2X user, a few days ago, I found LGExtract by @navossoc.

It's really an excellent tool. In the past I copied img files from C:\ProgramData\LGMOBILEAX\Phone, replaced recovery.img with CWM recovery when flashing KDZ. now I can extract img from KDZ without flashing KDZ, it's mush easier to flash system.img and boot.img with CWM recovery. (thanks navossoc!)
I still have a question, is it possible to build a custom KDZ now?

THANKS for quick reply: maybee you know how to flash only that file ? ( or) - how you get that file? You must used modified rom or not?
I got that file with Clockworkmod recovery. I don't know how to flash it, I'd think with "fastboot flash boot boot.img", but I don't know for sure!
If you got it from clockworkmod recovery than it is not orignal then modificed rom, so and boot will be modificed also.
If you update your ROM with KDZ, you can try this method to flash and root your phone at one time.
When flashing kdz, LG update tool will extract files to %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\LGMOBILEAX\Phone. If we replace recovery.img with CWM recoery before it write recovery, CWM recovery will be available when finished flashing, so that we can root the phone easily.
Dear D958 users,
I badly need stock boot.img for 4.2.2
or a method of how i can extract kdz file to get boot.img from the Stock Rom.
i get irritating CDC serial driver failure in Windows 7 due to wich i guess the Stock Rom is refuse to flash. it simply fails in download mode.
only option i have is unroot the device, download OTA and flash OTA but before all this got to push stock boot.img as while flashing OTA it restarts on custom recovery screen.
if any body else have a better suggestion, I'm all ears.
Hi there,
I want to change my P9 from Vodafone branding to C432 following the steps in these articles [1] [2].
It seems that after flashing the first update file and using paulobrien's c432 oeminfo update zip, I will need to revert to stock recovery before flashing the first dload file again.
My question is, can I simply copy the stock recovery.img before flashing TWRP, and then flash over it in fastboot, the same way a Nexus works?
Or is there another procedure? I am using a Mac so I can't use the SRK Toolkit.
Thanks!
I have now found this tool to unpack the stock rom file. It seems to work fine other than the fact that the CRC checking function fails, apparently it needs to be run on Linux.
Is it possible just to flash the recovery.img produced by the program or is there a danger it would be corrupted?
Alternatively would anyone be willing to unpack the file on a linux system, so that CRC can be verified, then upload the recovery file? Or is there another way to verify file integrity?
I downloaded UPDATE.ZIP and got the UPDATE.APP file from there.
I then extracted recovery_ramdisk_a.img and ramdisk_a.img, and flashed them in the phone, but it bricked my phone: not booting, no recovery, no fastboot (fastboot devices show empty; it gives Error 10 and 20 No boot on the phone)
Somehow after a few reboot, it got itself into a erecovery and downloaded full stock image and reflashed. Now it is unbricked.
Am I missing any steps? Why are these img files bricking?
Anyone knows please help
How did you extract the imgs from update.app? did you use Huawei Update Extractor tool?
