VM670NH_recovery.IMG link downloads VM670NH_recovery.TXT

[tobarger]

I've tried downloading the file VM670NH_recovery.img several times from every link I can find and it is always named VM670NH_recovery.txt. The md5 is a match but I have to rename the extension from txt to img. Does anyone know why this is happening, I am not the only one to have this problem with this download. Sushifo5 mentioned the same behavior while trying to download the same file in another post.

Have you tried using it after renaming it .img?

 

[tobarger]

Haven't tried but it should work since the md5 is a match. I'd just like to know why its happening.

Are you using your OV to download it, or a PC? Many times when I try to download a file from one of the many similar upload sites (like Megaupload) it comes as a TXT file, or an HTML file. I have to do it on my PC and copy it over that way.

Or use opera Web browser

It sounds normal to me that always happen to me every time I download a new recovery, I just rename it .Img and flash it using flashimagegul.apk works great for me!!! Ian using VM670NH RECOVERY

Happens when downloading files from mediafire. Just rename it to the correct extension.

I use Dolphin HD browser set to desktop mode and never have a problem. Even with VM670NH_recovery.img which is currently installed as my recovery.

Thanks for that tip. I had the same problem until I read this from BadBoyToast. It worked. I have a first edition OV which never gave me a problem flashing anything once I got a recovery in it. My husband's OV is a second edition which is a different animal entirely! Thanks again for the help.
