Hey,

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.

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.
this may sound really stupid.. im new to it.. ive downloaded a firmware and its on .zip

Check the contents of the zip file, if it contains a .ftf file inside it you have to extract and use flashtool to flash it.
If it contains an updater-script then its probably a recovery flashable file, which means it won't work using flash tool.
If you rename and try, you most probably will get an error from the flashtool.
But i doubt its possible to brick your phone that way though
it contains .sin files and meta-inf folder

Most likely you should be able to. But can you quote the source and name of the file maybe?
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

So I zip the document, and then extract it to the fastboot directory?

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

7zip
the rest is encrypted> so i didnt include
You sure about it being encrypted? I mean maybe I was seeing things but I'm sure I found many files that were readable plain text. Then again maybe only a portion is encrypted... I didn't look that long either so...
I have downloaded my device's firmware (sharp aquos r2 706sh) it's a tar.gz file I did extract it using zarchiver but i didn't find boot.img file can someone please help me out..

Try to extract the .tar.gz file using 7-Zip.
You will get .tar file, and then try to extract the .tar file too using 7-Zip.
