[main2raw] how use

[SaNdSuKkA]

I used main2raw and SEfstool4 to do mine. Make sure you have a FS file with *.fbn extension otherwise it won't work. If the drag and drop method doesn't work, which it didn't work for me because I have a DB2020 phone, try this method courtesy of vpraveenis
"
1. download MAIN2RAW and SEFSTOOL4.. they are available at many places
2. extract them in some temp folder, i.e. C:\w580i\
3. rename (if you like) the fbn file for easy-typing purposes only, i.e. W580i.fbn.. this is the FS file that you want to extract.
4. go to MSDOS (type cmd) and go to temp folder (type cd\w580i)
5. type main2raw <name of .fbn file> 2020, i.e main2raw W581i.fbn 2020... If your phone is not DB2020 type the DB type of your phone.
6. It will tell you press enter to quit main2raw after finishing. It has now created a file W580i.RAW.
7. type sefstool4 <name of raw file> 2020 , i.e sefstool4 W580i.RAW 2020
8. sefstool now created a folder with all standard GENERIC files. Browse them to find your original file."
