  • zlib
  • libbz2
  • openssl

It currently supports Linux x86/x64 & MacOS, Not tested on Windows.

Usage

usage: ./BlockImageUpdate <system.img> <system.transfer.list> <system.new.dat> <system.patch.dat>

args:

  • <system.img> = block device (or file) to modify in-place
  • <system.transfer.list> = transfer list (blob) from OTA/rom zip
  • <system.new.dat> = new data stream from OTA/rom zip
  • <system.patch.dat> = patch stream from OTA/rom zip
./ApplyPatchfn <file> <target> <tgt_sha1> <size> <init_sha1(1)> <patch(1)> [init_sha1(2)] [patch(2)]...
  • <file> = source file from rom zip
  • <target> = target file (use "-" to patch source file)
  • <tgt_sha1> = target SHA1 Sum after patching
  • <size> = file size

usage: ./scriptpatcher.sh <updater-script>

args:

  • <updater-script> = updater-script from OTA zip to patch recovery commands

Example

for example from updater-script of OTA we have:

block_image_update("/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system", package_extract_file("system.transfer.list"), "system.new.dat", "system.patch.dat")

apply_patch("EMMC:/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot:33554432:f32a854298814c18b12d56412f6e3a31afc95e42:33554432:0041a4df844d4b14c0085921d84572f48cc79ff4",
            "-", 0041a4df844d4b14c0085921d84572f48cc79ff4, 33554432,
            f32a854298814c18b12d56412f6e3a31afc95e42,
            package_extract_file("patch/boot.img.p"))

after getting system.img and boot.img from firmware This is equals of previous functions on PC with this tools:

~$ ./BlockImageUpdate system.img system.transfer.list system.new.dat system.patch.dat
~$ ./ApplyPatchfn boot.img - 0041a4df844d4b14c0085921d84572f48cc79ff4 33554432 f32a854298814c18b12d56412f6e3a31afc95e42

scriptpatcher.sh will generate all commands automatically from updater script so run it like:

~$ ./scriptpatcher.sh META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script > fullpatch.sh

check fullpatch.sh your self, you need to provide all images and files in correct name and patch as mentioned in mount and other commands of fullpatch.sh
