Hi,
Is there any easy way to unpack the release image add new apk's and pack again ?
I have done this in the past with AndroidTool. I can see that Asus have released their Android source but
I prefer not to rebuild everything.
Thanks
Vasant

There is a tool called rockdev_rk3288 that has the capability to unpack and pack the update.img.
But the SD card image that you run on Tinkerboard is further processed by a tool called SpiImageTool.
It doesn't look like there is a way to get back the update.img from the SD card image.
If there was such a tool I could manually add/remove apk's from system.img and then recreate the SD card image.
So right now I am building the SDK and going through the process of creating an SD card image.
