Is it possible for me to change a, . Exe file to a, . Zip file?
Generally, no. But I know 7zip ( http://www.7-zip.org/ )can extract the contents of many executables as if they were a zip. What is this for?
Generally no. But what do you need to do and I might try and help

I downloaded a exe file that I wntd to flash
It's probably not too wise to flash an .exe file to your phone. That's a windows executable file and this is Android.

Hey kingtnutt,
What are you trying to do with the .exe file? Do you need to extract it to pull files from it? More details would help.
If the .exe is a "self-extractor" it would probably work to change the extension to .zip and then extract it. It may not, though.

Ok, sounds like you have a self extractor. Follow the instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1835033
Sounds like you're trying to install a One-click update.
There are instructions for installing via Mobile Odin here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1721229
See the 'Android Section'
sfhub and rwilco12 have done a bang up job of putting up detailed install instructions.
Take some time and really read throught the posts, watch Qbking77's videos and then re-read the posts AND follow ups. Or you could end up with a shiny fishing lure.
Why not use PC Odin? Especially if you're just starting out. Might save you loads of trouble.
Good luck

Unfortunately those one-clicks are compiled in such a way that they can't be extracted. You have two options to flash it, Odin or Mobile Odin.
Out of curiosity, why would you want to convert it to a ZIP?

K. The good news is that these one-clicks make flashing with a ZIP look almost impossible. You seriously plug your phone in and press the start button in the one-click and you're done (that's over-simplifying but you get the idea). Check out the instructions in the OP and it walks you right through it.
If you still want to use a zip Crawrj has the fh23 rom here

This is for CDMA Sprint Nexus S 4G only!!!!
This will reload your NS4G back to its original state from the factory. This will take away root and erase ALL data.
This would be helpful if you phone won't boot or need to return it back to Sprint. This will take it back to stock.
Instructions:
Extract the zip file to your computer and then run setup.exe.

oK guys, this is not a flashable zip. You extract it to the computer and run the setup.exe inside the zip file.

I am running this from Windows7. Do I need anything else? the interface keeps giving me an error when I press the download button. I have rebooted the computer and made sure no adb.exe files were running in windows. I have shut off my antivirus as well just in case.
Edit: Redid all the steps again. Shut down the Microsoft security client. and it is working fine now. I also copied the Samsung folder from Program Files X86 to Program Files X64 just in case it needed to be in both spots. I am running W7 X64. I remember the HTC drivers needed to be in both spots to operate correctly.
Edit:Edit - You will also have to reactivate the phone when the install is complete. Hope they dont charge me another activation fee.
Can be used in Odin
Also found out that you can use Odin to flash this. Inside C:\Program Files (x86)\Samsung Electronics\SWUpgrade for SPH-D720\Binary there is a tar file called SPH-D720_GRJ22_PDA.tar. You can put this into the PDA section in Odin and flash the ROM.

If it is an md5 problem then where and what do i put the md5 file.
josepho1997 said:
Well you could try rebooting your device. If that doesn't work, boot your device into recovery mode(5001). If that doesn't work boot back into normal(4000). Make sure TWRP is updated.(or CWM). Or you could try to flash it manually with your computer.

well i think i didnt make the update script right or something. I need someone to check out the zip.
josepho1997 said:
I would test it out but i don't have my Kindle Fire. The USB Port was loose and I'm waiting on my new one. They shouldn't find out I rooted because I unrooted, deleted any app that hinted towards me rooting it, and my battery is completely dead and it can't charge, so I think I'm safe

Well its not really a matter of testing it because I'm pretty sure it won't work on any fire because I think I formatted the zip the wrong way. All I need is someone who has made a flash able zip to check the zip out and see what I did wrong. This is my first flash able zip I've ever made. It is a very simple one too.

You are correct that the zip file was formatted wrong. I redid the META-INF you was missing update-binary file and your updater-script was incorrect.
I attached it again with the fixes.

That probably just means you don't have 7zip or something else capable of extracting .7z files on your computer.
Should be fine I was doing it to my friends phone last night just make sure you have 7zip installed and right click the file and extract
Is there anyone willing to port this awesome Rom?
All credits go to the original authors
Thanks :good:
OP says a maybe to a future update on the rom for T-Mobile but I figured to see if someone here is willing to take a stab at it.
Page 3 Has a Step by Step Picture Guide to Help Users Flash the rom easily with our phones
I have flashed AT&T touchwiz based roms before without issues. Im not sure if the same could be done with AOSP. I would say try it, but i dont want to be help accountable if your device implodes.
I just went ahead and just changed the update script. Flashed it and its working awesome so far. Guess mods can close this thread.

I do everything straight from my phone using ROM toolbox app. I just advised to use a PC so that you would not need to extract the Rom and just go straight to editing the update script file, but it can be done from our phones.
Really not that hard. Whatever ROM you have. The .zip file needs to be extracted then follow my steps one page back. Then use ROM toolbox to compress the extracted folders back to a zip then flash done.
Maybe I can make a picture guide but only if there is demand for it not going to waste my time if not.

Thank you bro. Thats what we are here for to help each other lol. By the way Is that JellyBam after you changed the files. Have you ran into any bugs? How is the call quality and do you have echo?
just thought id share that i done exactly what g1master said and it worked flawlessly. all i had to do was change the d2att in the first lines to d2tmo and it worked fine. i used notepad++ to make the changed btw

A little more detail please. Did you root then try OTA update?
You might try flashing stock image, then flash value package using LGFlashTool. Might have to root again. You can find all these in the development section.

Read the guide located here.
Once you have everything extracted (the necessary dll, the image, etc), go to the folder where you have LGFLASHTOOL extracted and delete the .dll file that is not the megalock.dll (I forget the name). That will get it to load.
Put your phone into download mode. Follow instructions in the link provided.
Hopefully this will help. Repeat to put the value package on too.
