HELPP! Can´t open my deivce firmware.zip file to extract boot.img. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, so i got a simple tablet, Multilaser M7S Lite, and i want to root it, my main goal is to be able to edit System folder, i want to change the boot animation, mainly.
So , since there is no TWRP recovery for this brand, i decided that the only way, was with magisk patching boot.img. So i found my deivce firmware - https://www.stockrom.net/2021/04/multilaser-m7s-lite-so06-v7-20200509-8-1oreo.htmland download the .img file. So to extract the boot.img, i need to change it to .zip file and open. But when opening it it says the following:
And using 7-zip, it only extract this files :
What can i do?

The firmware-package file you linked to is a .RAR-formatted archive.
When you unpack this .RAR-file then you can see a ML***USER.img is housed therein what is tablet's Stock ROM.
To unpack this .IMG-file you may use sim2img provided here:
[DEV][Tools] simg2img for Windows

Running sim2img, it says bad magic.

It's the full firmware but is it an allwinner or a rockchip or... These tabs can be like whatever. Check that first then google how to extract etc.

I found this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...images-unpacker-packer.1753473/#post-28329544
SOO i manage to unpack it!!
Which file i use in magisk to patch?? boot.fex?

An example:
You want to extract The Pocket Neo 2 (5312C/5310L) System files, deodex and make your own custom ROM for 5312B/10B with that apk files
That's the first thing you have to do :3
How this works:
We will use the delicious ImgExtractor v1.3.6 <Created by And_PDA (Based on sources ext4_unpacker)> as base and with this and few more things to complete the mission
It will read blocks of RAW EXT4 image and extract then keeping the metadata and all the stuff you must know... (including .journal file)
Procedure:
Part 01
Download and extrac the tool to somewhere
Take a Big G search and find Pocket Neo 2 ODIN stock ROM, (for example...)
Rename it to S5312xxxxxxx_bla_bla_blaHOME.tar
Now simple extract with WinRAR
You will see a few files, do not lose the focus, look at system.img
Now it is time to Part 02
Part 02
Coopy the system.img file to \system.img Extractor\para_extrair
Don't rename it, please
Now go a level back on the folder and open .comd file that you preffer
Read all and make your choice

Now, wait until it extract all and when it is done, do a party! You made it!

(Help!) Annoying notification: "The system..." (The link to new thread in this post)

(Help!) Annoying notification: "The system..." (The link to new thread in this post)
Note: English isn't my primary language and I'm only 14
The update thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/help-annoying-notification-damaged-t3669238
Here is the problem:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
As you can see, I had successfully add all of the Google Apps into the "non GApps" system.img (MediaTek rom), but after I booted up my phone, the annoying notification shown up. But this doesn't happend to the original rom
So this is what I did
1. I download the rom from NeedRom
2. I download the Google Apps from https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347821182
3. I unpack the system.img using this tool from the forum
4. I delete all of the "china parts" from the rom
5. I copy the GApps from step 2 to the system unpacked folder from step 3
6. I repack the system with the same tool from step 3 and apply the rom into the phone using SP Flash Tool
Finally the phone came up with the alert notification
BUT there is a small detail that I notice while I was playing around the Auto Tool v3
( This is the part when I unpack - repack - unpack the file :3 )
Is there anything that I can do to remove the annoying alert? Even if I have to apply the rom again.
P/s: this is the file_contexts I pulled out from the boot.img if someone wil going to unpack the system.img
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1RTsnBzcaa5UGNwSE1SRi1LRXc/view
The alert also shown up when I rooted my device and only when I unroot it (I use KingRoot)
Thanks to everyone is going to help me

[Q] I have problems using QFIL on Realme GT ME

Hi all,
So I've gotten to the point of extracting the firehose.elf and both the rawporgrams and the patch files but it cannot find the file: super.img which makes sense because there are 5

My guess is that I somehow have to merge/combine them but I don't know how to. So if you know how to merge these files (either on linux or win10) or know how to flash these othewise I'll be looking forward to hear it.
do you have rawprogram_unsparse.xml? use this file instead for flashing sparse junks.
(you could also try that bash script from linux)

Ty I was using the simple rawprogram0(since I do not have an unsparse version) file, I was thinking along the way of flashing multiple but I didn't really know how that worked but I'll be trying the bash script.
the script requires rawprogram_unsparse.xml

God damn it I'm dumb but guess I'll have to write the rawprogram_unsparse.xml out by hand.
how? you don't know the sparse
Seems like I should've read things twice but I was at school, so I do not have the unsparse file at all which makes no sense to me since I looked at 4 different ofp-s
Edit so I got the super.img now there was a cvs file with which I could use simg2img to merge files into 1 but now QFIL throws an error that it can't procces a super.img as a sparse
how exactly did you do this? do you have sparse lengths or offsets?
Rename the find "super.img"
