  • tar.md5 is a hash of file and contain only one not so long string. Commented Dec 13, 2023 at 19:43
  • Sure it's possible. Also, the app will detect it and refuse to run. Been there, done that. These apps even fail on exotic actual Android devices.

    @Giacomo1968 From what I've seen Samsung firmware files are distributed as "tar.md5" files even though they are actually just tar files. The md5 seems them trying to imply they are signed (you can upload modified tar files but these will show the OS as unsafe)
