ive created a tool which consists of scripts and binarys called SIDK alias System-Image-Development-Kit!
It allows you to unpack system.img for hammerhead and mako with one command called: "./unpack-mako.sh" which will automatically detect if the corresponding system.img is present in the device specific directory. It will unpack system.img to system directory and let you repack with just one command called: "./repack-mako.sh" and put the new compiled img in the output directory, now my q is: should i release it for mako and hammerhead or even more devices? would it be useful?

Since you're here in the General forum you might need to explain what the purpose of this tool is for non-developers, or give some more details. It's possible that there would be interest in it but I don't think anyone knows what the use cases are from your description. :good:
You may start with mako and hammerhead and when it is stable enough release it for all nexus devices and then to sony/samsung/htc devices.
It's a matter of time, but first... NEXUS

Is there a program that will open Nandroid *.img files so that I can recover a single data file contained therein without flashing/restoring the whole backup to my phone?
yes...someone wrote some scripts to unpack / repack the filesystem images:

Actually that looks more like what I wanted. The first one mostly about the boot image, and the userdata image is what I'm primarily interested in.
wait.... with this, i will be able to backup my highscores/gamesaves for the games ONLY if i want?!?!
unyaffs does not seem to work on recovery images...

Hot on the heels of my installAPK utility to let you install APKs from your Windows desktop, I now have another neat trick... which allows developers to distribute APKs as Windows EXE files instead.
What do I need?
NSIS install system - http://nsis.sourceforge.net
APK2EXE (my suite) - http://shortun.com/3q
Your APK
What does the end user need?
The end user needs their device attached to their PC, with the appropriate drivers installed (which they can grab from http://android.modaco.com/usbdrivers).
How do I use it?
Follow these steps to create your executable!
Extract APK2EXE to a new directory
Add your APK to the directory
Doubleclick APK2EXE.NSI and edit the 3 lines containing information about your application.

Right click the NSI file, and select 'Compile NSIS Script' - this will create your install EXE
Test your installer!
Done!

[size=+2]Download tool Here! [/size]
Code:
[center]
USAGE: CacheRipper.exe <cache.img> <output.zip>
[/center]
What id does?
- It takes a cache.img file and unpacks the cache inside it to widely readable and reusable zip file
What for?
- Current methods requires you to convert cache.img to ext4 format and then use some weird tools to mount it as filesystem and then you can see/unpack the contents, using Cache Ripper you simply provide two arguments to it which is cache file and output zip file and voila! after a blink of an eye you got cache file and you can read/modify it and FLASH WITH CWM!!!
as it contains all things needed to flash (including scripts).
Disclaimer:
If you want to use this tool, please credit me in your project
If you find it helpfull, click donate and buy me a beer
And remember to follow our main site which is http://samsung-updates.com or twitter http://twitter.com/SamsungUpdates
this looks VERY useful for devs - thanks
Very promising.
CWM flashable feature is excellent. Similar possible for boot image?
Very handy Keep up the good work
thanks bro...

This is console tool not UI. Run it in cmd window.
After hours of looking for information on changing my boot logo/splash screen I was finally able to put together something helpful for anyone else in the same boat. I wrote a bash script and bundled it with the necessities for quick and easy modification of splash screens.
Included in the attached zip you'll find:
convert.exe Copyright (C) 1999-2012 ImageMagick Studio LLC
nbimg made by XDA user pof
fastboot.exe from Android SDK
spla.sh written by myself
Instructions -
Using your favorite image manipulation tool (e.g. Photoshop, GIMP, Pixlr, etc.) create whatever you want as your boot logo. Save the image in the same directory as the included files. Using the terminal of your choice navigate to the directory you extracted the files to and run 'sudo ./spla.sh' the rest is self explanatory!
As I was messing around with this a bit more I noticed you may need to 'chmod +x nbimg' if you get a permission denied message.
DISCLAIMER: Use this at your own risk! I take no responsibility if you brick your device.

Any specific error you're getting? What's the device you're using? Do you have adb/fastboot working otherwise?
Working on any device?

Hi XDA Member,
I have been thinker of how to flash oppo device (this issue mostly Reno3 or newer), but can't move forward, because usually most ROM has only ONE super.img exist, but somehow oppo put multiple super.img (see pict), with a mapping file.

Obviously I tried following techniques and yet failed:
Rename file extension to 001, 002...and so on, and unzip it
Copy /b
I would appreciate anyone could show me how to "merge" this image to one single useful image. Thanks and have a nice day.
Actually, may i ask what is exacly you're trying to do which needed files such as Super.img files that you mentioned? As far as i know, we only needed something like Boot.img / Recovery.img and other couple files for Unlocking Bootloader and Root. Correct me if im wrong, and please tell me about this Super.img files.

Yes, that would be the case with certain if not most of android phones.
As, i described this only affect Reno3 or newer. This Trend become more and more apparent, when manufacturers put "roadblock" to do what we want when we wanted with our device.
So, do you have any idea with my issue?
