How do I download and install an .apk file which is hosted on filesonic? Ive tried downloading multiple files and they end up as .htm or .html
Thanks to the ppl that reply!
Don't download from the phone. Download from a pc, then send the file to the phone.
Exactly then use a file manager like Astro to install.
Oh ok, thanks! I tho I could download from phone u.u

You can try to download opera mobile and use that. Seems to have fixed some if not most of my downloading issues.
I had the same question last week. It got annoying. Maybe now I can try this

You can download apk with the phone, just be sure to open it with the package installer/ I know if you have emulators [especially psx4droid] it'll try to open the apk and say rom not supported [cuz its not a rom].
Hi all
I am trying to locate the yakju-icl53f-factory-89fccaac.tgz file on googles website, but they've changed the file to yakju-icl53f-factory-89fccaac.tar now.
Does that mean I can flash it with Odin now?
If I try to extract the contents with 7-zip its just a single file without an extension - no separate bootloader, etc files.....
Any ideas???

When you hold your cursor over the file links they say TGZ, but when you click to download its TAR..
Try that

The fix, if anyone else has the same issue as me, just rename the file back to TGZ, then use 7-zip to unzip it. For some reason Windows 7 changes the TGZ to TAR at the time of download.

Interestingly, it seems to be Internet Explorer renaming from .tgz to .tar. Downloading in Firefox just appends the .tar (eg "----.tgz.tar")
(Windows 7, and Firefox beta 10 & IE 9)

Thankyou was scratching my head for a second there.
I can't seem to find one anywhere. All the links I am encountering are dead. Does anyone have this file laying around or know where I can get it? My evo is dead right now and from everything I've read this is what I need to get it up and running again. Thanks in advance.
Sorry but, RUU zip? Lol thats like saying you need a JPG word doc.
Anyway, I don't think you searched hard enough, look up "supersonic RUU's" on google, first hit. Download from there, they're hosted on team nocturnals website.
Lol right, been seeing a lot of these lately. And it seems only people who put in the op that they are "noobs" are the only ones who can't find this stuff. But, Phandroid is way worse about this. Which is funny because the sticky at the top of the forum has all the links and instructions to root and unroot every h-boot and hardware version. So what I'm saying is please people just LOOK, it's all you have to do, please.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda app-developers app
you may find the ruu your looking for here.... http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Supersonic
but the ruu will be a zip
if you want the zip, IE - PC36IMG.zip you will have to extract it.
i just did this exact thing today. i needed the shipped and pre-release ruu for some goodies contained within. followed this guide...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26541170&postcount=1
just rename ROM.zip to PC36IMG.zip instead of PG58IMG.zip
here's the gist of that thread you need to perform.
4.1 Getting PG58IMG.zip from RUU
Run the RUU executable as you normally would, but don't proceed to the second step i.e. when a second window appears, do nothing. Do not proceed, just ignore it for now, but don't close the window.
Right-click the Windows Start button and select "Open Window Explorer" option.
If you use Windows XP
Copy-paste this in the navigation bar:
Code:
C:\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Local Settings\Temp\
If you use Windows Vista/7
Press & hold Windows key on the keyboard and then press R (Win key + R). Once the box pops up, copy paste this:
Code:
%temp%
Right click anywhere inside explorer window (not on any folder) and select Sort by then select Date.
Locate the latest one created (first in the list & it will most likely have random numbers in the name) & open it.
You will find a second folder with a set of random numbers. Open it, inside you will find a number of files and the rom.zip
Copy the rom.zip file to another location.
Now, close the RUU executable folder & rename the rom.zip file as PG58IMG.zip

The link below is of the site im talking about, i rooted my note 4 no problem before with this and im doing someone else phone. I downloaded the root files, go to extract and i get error and it wont do it. tried it 3 times on 2 computers same result. suggestions?
had to put a space before (.com) so it didnt show up as a link.
androidxda .com/root-samsung-galaxy-note-4-sm-n910p-sprint
Open the archive with 7zip or winwar and drag the files to an folder/location titled appropriately, like root or Odin under a main folder like SM-N910.
Thanks, i will try that when i get home. Just odd it worked fine when i did mine and now it says its corrupt.
No go with 7zip.
Chain Fire has a policy against redistributing his work. When I go to his thread and follow the link, I end up with the link below.

Also, no md5 to verify a good download. I'd suggest the proper link from this thread and use a PC to download. Maybe the source or bad download is what you're dealing with? You did try open archive and select all, drag to suggested folder, right? Don't recommend extraction; just double-click Odin, once folder is created, to execute and pick the file as directed in the thread below.

Thanks, i actually just found that about 30 mins ago and it worked great. saved that page for future use if i help anyone else to root there phone. been coming to this site for years very rarely do i have to post cause everything i ever need to know is on here somewhere.
I cannot find this download anywhere on the Internet. Does someone have a copy they can share? Thank you in advance.
