The procedure is to:

  • Unpack sparse image (rootfs.jffs2) using unlzo.py
  • Mount rootfs image as an ext4 loopback device
  • Do what you'd like
  • Unmount rootfs
  • Repack sparse image using sparsify.py
  • Build FIASCO image from sparse image and layout file using fiasco-gen
  • Flash FIASCO image to device using flasher 3.12.1

It isn't very easy to do, and most of those steps have to be done from a Linux system. Also, realistically, it isn't all that useful - though I released sparsify hoping that someone would do it anyway. If you really want to pack a custom image I'd help out with more info.

Edit: On second thought, one potential use would be for quick deployment of NITDroid, but IIRC e-yes wasn't too interested in this.
Thank you! By these steps I have successfully packed a firmware and flashed. With a little adjustment to the last step. The only problem is the warning picture when booting up, "disclaimer-cal remove View-openmode" won't work at all,I don't know how could I remove it.

remove command can only be runned in _closed_ mode (which is stated in all the FAQ's, so there is no problem, just user error when reading the instructions :-)
