I know how to flash a rom ending with .zip with Xrecovery but i dunno about .rar
Can someone please advise me?
Thanks
You can't flash that rom. You can only restore it from xrecovery.
You unrar it and copy the content to xrecovery.

try renaming the file to update.zip and copy it to sdcard.
then goto recovery and choose update from zip
warning:you may loose root and become stock
or
use the android kitchen to get a correct signed flash-able zip
i've extracted the zip files, but no clue where to put them :|
(system stuff goes into the system folder, but what about the META-INF folder?)
install it with xrecovery.

camera n compass u flash it in xrecovery. u can flash both then reboot without having to reboot after each flash.
as for mddi u need to do it manually for now i don't think doixanh made a xrecovery zip yet
the meta-inf folder basically just contains a script to tell xrecovery where to copy the files.

Excuse the noob question but I wanted to try out the FlipDroidmod 2.1 but the download is a rar file.
How do I install that using Recovery - I thought it had to be a zip file?
Thanks
you need to extract the .rar file and place the folder in the same folder as
your nandroid backups and restore it from recovery

Firstly you have to install update.zip extract it from the rar/zip you have download and copy that file in the root of your sd card.
Also check if you have download the file properly and there are no spaces in between the name of the file.
And lastly try using a 2+ recovery.
