Yes, you do. If you mean on PC then you need WinRAR or WinZip. If you mean on your phone, then yeah, get WinZip too.

There are many other apps, but I just found WinZip sooo.... yeah.

I think you're asking how to load an .exe file (program/installation file) onto your device? If so, you'll need to just run it from your computer.
Hopefully that's what you meant...
You cant run an application that is program only to PC into a PPC.
Some .NET application will run on both PC and PPC but their functions will be different..

no one made it. those files were sent to Earth by aliens. No one on Earth have time to write an application to extract the files 'cuz they're too busy asking questions instead of search.

If it's a self extracting file, use something like winrar, and extract the files as you would a rar archive.

Diamond ROM?
I'm having an issue trying to view the files in an RUU file - Can anyone provide me with some more detailed info on how to do this?
Not D&H.
Moved to Q&A.
Please post in correct sections.
Also when you run a RUU it creates a temporary folder with all the contents, i do not know the exact path but im sure a quick google search could find it.

to find the location goto task manager on windows aka.....CTRL+shift+ESC
look for ARUWizard.exe*32
right click on it and open file location. it takes you to the folder and it has the full rom.zip aka the pc36img.zip
i am currently viewing it and will note back asap

[Q] Can't establish a reliable connection to the Play Store

Hey guys,
I know that many of you have given a bunch of solutions to the error message saying that the play store can't establish a reliable connection. However, I've tried all of those methods and none have worked. I got here in the first place because I couldn't connect to the play store. When I cleared data, I was logged out and couldn't log back in. I've tried editing the host file using total commander,clearing cache/data, and even a factory reset. Do you guys have any solutions? Thanks in advance.
Did you run Towelroot?
If so a friend of mine went into system/etc/hosts and commented out one of the IP addresses and it worked fine. Factory resetting doesn't change back system files to my knowledge.

I'm not sure what towel root is, but that is exactly what I did using total commander. I put a # before the second address. That didn't work. Also, since resetting won't change system files, I tried flashing a factory image. However, when I try to download the latest image on my PC, the download shows up as a document and not as a zipped file. That means that there is no flash-all script to run. I've reached a wall lol if you could think of anything that would work, I would appreciate that. Also, thanks for replying!
Winrarlabs.com and get latest WinRAR and extract the .tgz file with WinRAR to same directory as fastboot. Flash all script will be there once you extract .tgz

Install winrar. Open the .tgz file via winrar and then extract all the files you get there. flash-all file will be among those files

try renaming the file to a different extension. like zip, mp3, or mp4 etc. it can be possible that the file extension is not correctly set by the creator.
