extract_android_ota_payload.py

Extract Android firmware images from an OTA payload.bin file.

With the introduction of the A/B system update, the OTA file format changed. This tool allows to extract and decompress the firmware images packed using the 'brillo' toolset.

Incremental firmware images are not supported (source_copy, source_bsdiff operations).

Usage

$ extract_android_ota_payload.py <payload.bin> [target_dir]
  <payload.bin> : file extracted from the OTA zip file or the OTA zip file
  <target_dir>  : output directory for the extracted file
