maxl96 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) System Dump is an exact copy of the Data from the system partition of the device.Ypu can use it to build your own rom or extract apps from it or modify it..Basically its the whole ROM which is running on the device.

implague Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 can we use that dump file on any device such as nexus 5 s dump use on galaxy s3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxl96 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Don´t try it!Even if you would be able to flash it on your S3 it will probably be bricked and wont boot anymore.This is because of totally different hardware.. Every device has its own optimized software and it shouldn´t be tried to flash a ROM from another device.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BookCase Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 (edited) can we use that dump file on any device such as nexus 5 s dump use on galaxy s3?You could use a system dump to port the OS to a different device but, you would have to know what you were doing and it would take a lot of testing and debugging to get it to work. You would have to cook it up in your own Kitchen.Have a look here:Create Your Own System Dump Files from Android FirmwaresFor more information, including How-To's and other things, try the XDA University.
