motoflash2sh

This script converts Motorola's Android system images (containing a flashfile.xml) to a shell script. (Jeroen Bart's blog has a nice step-by-step explanation of these files.)

Install

Use Python 3 pip (usually named pip3):

$ pip3 install https://github.com/dlenski/motoflash2sh/archive/v0.4.zip     # tagged version
$ pip3 install https://github.com/dlenski/motoflash2sh/archive/master.zip   # latest commit

Use

  1. Unpack zip file containing Motorola system image
  2. Run motoflash2sh to convert the flashfile.xml to flashfile.sh
  3. Inspect and/or run the flashfile.sh to execute the equivalent fastboot commands.
$ unzip XT1607_HARPIA_RETUS_MPI24.241-2.35-1_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip -d /tmp/unpacked
$ motoflash2sh /tmp/unpacked/flashfile.xml
Wrote shell script with 26 fastboot steps to /tmp/unpacked/flashfile.sh

Example output

This is the output for the flashfile.xml in the XT1607_HARPIA_RETUS_MPI24.241-2.35-1_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip system image:

#!/bin/sh -x
