[Q] Need help unzipping root66 file - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

Whats up everyone. Finally got my hands on a pc to root my verizon s3. Downloaded all needed files and now im at the point of extracting the root66 to a tar file. Havnt been on windows for a while so off memory I d/led winzip. That didn't work because I guess incompatible with. Z7? Okay, so thats fine so I figure theres something else out there for this exact file type. Do a quick Google search and found 7 zip. But now every time I try to extract im getting "cannot open xxxx as archive".
Don't know if this helps but my file is still in my download folder and images trying to extract it to the same folder. I tried all the other options as well but to no avail. So any help would be greatly appreciated

[Q] Odin closes as soon as I launch it

I DL'ed ODIN 1.85 to flash CWM to my tab but as soon as I open it with 7z it closes right away. I've tried it on my toshiba netbook as well as my new HP laptop and I get the same result.
Am I missing something?
sidenote: I'm pretty familar with ODIN as I use it with my captivate (and that version opens fine on my netbook). I just can't get this to stay open
Bump.
Nothing??
Why do you open odin with 7z?
- unzip the folder & run as Administrator
open & run programs like that from 7zip is like playing with fire
I had the same issue. I unzipped the folder and madr sure all the files stay in the same folder. This should fix it.
it might have an error in korean, it might be missing the ini file if this comes up. launch with the ini in the same folder and it should be ok
It worked on my laptop you may need to uninstall the old version/drivers and reinstall.

thats intresting, iwanna know too :cyclops:
I remember reading about this a while back... Anyway, you need to have testsign.jar in your root folder.
Then, you'll want to download this file. The .zip has the testsign.jar file too. This is a droplet application; meaning, you just drag and drop any .apk or .zip file, and it signs them for you. Credits go to @jessetbenton for the droplet file.

Since an .EXE file is a Windows x86 program, it's pretty well impossible for you to run it on an ARM processor device. That's why the .exe can't be opened. What other kinds of files are you seeing this with?

[Q] I'm Too Lame to Install APK Flash. Help!

Okay, I've got what are probably really stupid questions. I'm trying to install Flash on my new Nexus 10. I'm brand-new to tablets, as you'll probably be able to tell from the following questions:
I downloaded the ZIP file on my computer, transferred it to Dropbox, and then put that archive in my SD.
But I can't figure out how to INSTALL it.
I just can't figure out what to do next. I've installed a thing called APK Installer and it doesn't seem to recognize that there's a program to install even after I've unzipped it IN the folder where the APK installer is.
I see no .exe anywhere in any of the folders in the archive.
Yes, I've turned on the ability to install from Unknown Sources.
What am I missing here?
THANKS for the help!
There is no flash version for devices whit Android +4.0 Your tablet runs 4.3 so no suport.
