This is one of the most elementary steps of customizing your device. You must know how to unzip folders.
Folders are “zipped” to decrease the download time. Therefore, you must “unzip” the folder once it is on your local machine. To do this, I am going to introduce the best, most simple, free application for unzipping files. Enter: 7-zip.
How To Unzip A Folder:
1. Download and install 7-Zip.
To do this, you must go to the 7-zip website and “download” the program. You will most likely need the 32-bit download. Once the program has been downloaded, double click on it and follow the setup wizard. After 7-Zip has been successfully installed on your computer, proceed to step 2.
2. Locate the folder that you would like to unzip, move it to your desktop, and right-click it.
3. If you have installed 7-Zip correctly, you will now see an option that says “7-Zip”
4. Hover over the “7-Zip” and click “Extract to “foldername”.
This will create a new folder, an unzipped folder, in the same directory that you are currently in. If the zipped folder was on your desktop, look for a new folder with the same name, but it won’t have the zipper icon.
5. Double-click the new folder and enjoy the contents.
Most of the time, if you’re flashing to a new ROM, there will be an “RUU” folder inside of the base folder, and then a “Custom_RUU” inside of that. You will most always double-click the “Custom_RUU” and that will begin the ROM flashing process.
