How can I pull an app from an official FW archive downloaded from samfirmware? The file downloaded was *.tar and if I extract it I get a *.rfs that has 271MB and some other small files... Is there a way to extract an app from those files?
Tried to download tiamat-031412-bcm4329.ko.7z but it's giving me an error when I try to open it. Help pls.

Unfortunately that didn't work.
Is file on your phone or computer? What zip program do you use on your computer?
File on computer....tried WinRAR and 7zip.
I know you can open it in winzip and then do a save as and save it as a zip file. Not sure that will help.
Did you use the convert feature in WinRAR?
Is the download corrupt?
I'll try Winzip now see what happens.
WinZip failed too...any help?
What exactly is failing?

"Cannot open file. Does not appear to be a valid archive".
Sounds like it's corrupt. Download again.
Downloaded multiple times...that's why I'd like it if anyone could link me a good file :/
Cmon guys I seriously need help I can't use my phone!
Download playground and kernel and reflash.
I cannot flash the kernel...because I'm on S-OFF and I need to adb push the Wifi module driver...now to do that I need to change the name of the file in the zip. But I can't access the zip...
But isn't the Wifi module in the rom? If you are s-off, download the rom via computer, copy to sd card and flash. Do the same with the kernel. Unless I'm missing something.
The file isn't for unpacking as I remember you just need to edit the filename and remove the .7z extension and copy it over the current one.
It should only be S-ON users that had to do this as I remember too.

Hmm I thought the filename I had to edit was in the actual zip. Thanks...
You can't just rename a 7zip file you need to extract and than re-compress the files into a zip file.

You may also be able to open in winzip and do as a save as and save it as a zip file.
Im hoping this hasn't been asked before (if so please give me a link to the thread)
Im trying to return my HTC One to stock by flashing the RUU zip file, but every time i enter the "fastboot flash zip ruu.zip" (my zip file is named ruu.zip) it says "cannot load ruu.zip". I have checked to ensure that i have downloaded the right RUU file for my CID (HTC_038).

It has been asked before, but no harm in asking again, I guess:
cannot load = MyFilenameIsWRONG.zip
if you renamed the file using Windows Explorer check for double extensions (ruu.zip.zip)
You can simply ad your CID by extracting the zip and write it into the txt file
Afterwards you repack it
Hi guys, I want to extract a flashable zip from stock firmware of XT1060... I followed the instruction from this post :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387941
but I get nothing in the system folder after I extracted it, and the kitchen gave me an error
Code:
Error: No /system/framework folder found!
So I want to ask how to extract a full flashable zip from the stock rom downloaded from sbf-droid (e.g.: VZW_XT1060_4.4.4-KXA21.12-L1.26_CFC_1FF.xml.zip)
Thank You

What error are you getting, maybe you need to download the ROM again as it's become corrupted when you downloaded it the first time.
If using 7zip you'll need to extract it twice. The first time uncompresses the file, after which you should have a single file. Sometimes this file won't have a file extension, so in this case rename it and add .tar on to the end. This is now an uncompressed archive file, so open it up in 7zip and extract the contents. After this you should have a folder containing some .bat files and another folder which contains a lot of image files. It is this top level folder you need to select in the Mi Flash Tool.
