Did you use RAR file archiver? Cause I tried this before using FX file explorer but it doesn't work. RAR file archiver was my option.

Or maybe while the app is setting up things and downloading the .OBB file something went wrong... Btw here's a new thread for the newer version of Office apps that currently doesn't have these .OBB files.

OP, there's no reason to create new threads for updates. Just edit and update the one and only thread next time. Otherwise you only create confusion and forum clutter.
You've already linked to the new thread, so I'll close this one.

How to open attached *.php files?

I'm able to open every attached 'download.php' file on this forum, but a few seems to be empty to my variO, while other members don't have that problem. I myself use pRAR 3.60. Are there other tools/programs to open them or are there diffferent types of *.php files which are created by forummembers?
If I understood correctly you are talking about downloading stuff from this forum directly to your device?
The *.php extension in this case is a bug. Any file may it be exe or zip or doc downloaded from a thread here by PIE will wind up as php on your device.
The only way I know around this is to use Total Commander (or similar) to change the extension to what it suppose to be (doc, exe, zip) and then try opening the file.
Opening the *.php files is not the problem, but they seems to be empty, no archived included. Like the attached one. I renamed it as rar but still no joy.
Could you try to see if this one is empty?
And are there other NLD variO users experience the same problem, with my config (see signed info)?
I think I solved you problem.
Quick look with a hex editor reviles that his is not a rar file.
It's a cab. Also desktop WinRAR has no problem opening it or extracting files.
If you rename it with cab extension then run it by clicking on it in file explorer you get the desired effect.
I am not familiar with pRAR but it may be limited to rar and zip file formats.
That's it..!!
I wished I asked this months before...
Thanx alot

[Q] Is there and app that can launch an apk from within a RAR archive?

Hi im looking for a file manager that can launch an .apk file that I have compressed into a .rar archive.
Astro Manager can do this for zip files but rar is a much better archive and has higher compression.
Does anybody know of one that is compatible with rar and can launch it "directly" from the archive, and not just extract it somewhere and you have to then manually launch it.
I don't know any file manager with RAR support built-in.
But there are 2 apps for RAR archives in the Market: Unrar and Unrar Pro.
So at least you can unrar the archive and then install the APK with a file manager (Astro, ES File Manager, ...).
Edit: well I missed the last part of your message : "not just extract it somewhere and you have to then manually launch it". Sorry...
Yeah bud, You see that's the prob, the only ones ive found are ones that have to extract somewhere and then you manually launch it.
What im looking for is same functionality as zip has with Astro where yu can launch the apk directly from inside a zip file. It will extract it first in background and then automatically launch for you so the extracted file stays in cache or some temporary folder.
Hopefully winrar will release an official app at some point or somebody releases a solution
Maybe ask to the team of one of the existing file managers if they can add support for RAR, instead of having yet another file manager, only for RAR.
I have done.
I was simply asking if there was currently one available in the mean time.
Hopefully ASTRO will integrate rar support, its by far the best file manager ive used.
Then you have not tried ES File Manager

Yes I have.
It doesnt do what im asking.
[edit] Infact ive just tried it again and it doesnt even support rar archives at all, it cant extract or load from them.
What im looking for is a program that can launch a spk fiel from within an archive. There are many managers that can extract files from them but what im looking for is something that extracts in background to temp files and launches the file directly via the archive when viewing, Just like Astro does with zip files but for rar.

[Q] WP7 - where the IE store the downloaded files?

Can you gentlemen please tell me where the IE browser of the WP7 is storing the downloaded files? I downloaded from the web a .xap file, but when I go in to the fileexplorer to find it, I dont know where to look for it.
Thanks
\Application Data\Volatile\
That's the temp folder. Browser-downloaded files, email attachments, and other temporary files are stored in subfolders of that one.

In addition to apktool (thanks, @kaiodduarte), you're also going to need a good text editor (I use Notepad++), an archive manager (like 7zip or WinRAR), and the ZipSigner app for your device.

AFAIK a thumbdata4 file ( what by nature is a database - created by the Gallery app in the DCIM folder ) can't be converted to any other file format.
