You probably have the name like E15i_2.1.plplplplppl.zip.ftf, you should enable the "Show extension" in Windows Explorer to be able to rename the extension. (You can find it at any random explorer screen, by going to "Extra">"Folder settings" and unselect the checkbox for "Hide known file extensions" <Not sure if it's named like this, i'm on a Dutch version of Windows>)
Rename it back to *.ftf and done.
Just download it again
Simples. If you can't download it againg just rename. Zip back to .fitful by showing extensions and renaming it

or
use the android kitchen to get a correct signed flash-able zip
why is there no guide for installing a different baseband? Nothing works for me... for example my baseband is 2.1.54 and i try to install the first one from here > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011608 < and installing thru xrecovery doesn't work same as for flashing...?
I suggest you click this link.
no guide ? looks like you and i see different forums. -.-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=960527
That is just a patch. You have to flash the baseband through flash tool.
and if the file is just a .rar with folders and files in it?

You have to use a rom that supports that baseband.
I'm not sure what you mean. You can change the extensions by going to My Computer -> C:\ -> tap ALT -> tools -> folder options -> view -> untick "hide extensions for known file types.
Then you just rename the file from "name.rar" to "name.ftf"

if you're referring to cob's miui, you unrar it
flash the update.zip, boot into the rom
then when it "settles" go back into xrec and flash the bb patch.
confused where you're having trouble.....
If your bb is already .54 or .55, flash that patch and it fixes it.
If it is .49/.52 do nothing
Also, if you have a rar file that unrars to sin files, you can use the Flash Tool 0.2.9 to "create ftf bundle" in the toolbar options.
why when i try to restore this roms it said "MD5 mismatch!"..?

When you extracted the file.. He created a folder name [GingerFroyo.1.4.16]
Just open this Folder and inside you will see another folder in the same name..
This is one that you should copy in xrecovery/backup/ folder.. this file contains 4 files..

Just make sure you have downloaded the new one. Extract it on your PC and you will have a folder named GingerFroyo 1.4.16
Put that folder in SD > xrecovery > backup
Restore and make full wipe
maybe my download was the problem..i'll try to download it again...thank you for helping
better try to redownload, and see what will happen

I just downloaded the file just now, and when I extracted the file it came with the folder [GingerFroyo.1.4.16].. and inside that folder I saw a folder again in the same name..
this is the folder as just copy in xrecover/backup
yep, there is 4 file..drag the folder again to sd->xrecovery->backup. and put the folder there. reboot with xrecovery, choose back up and restore, select restore->GingerFroyo.1.4.16. after finish installation, make sure u make factory reset (full wipe). then reboot.

im unable to make a ftf file with flashtool. i unzip the file. then search it, select it in source folder. The flashtool never opens the file and subfiles. It never displays in the left column. Ive started with a zip file, then unziped it. Ive also tried winRAR to extract the files. Im using 2.9.1 Java 1.6.0_24 os 6.1
Any help or tips would be appreciated
Hey, you must sure that in the zip file just one file .ftf, if so, extract it. If there are 4 files like system, data ... you must rename the .zip file to .ftf

All the files you want to bundle need to be in one folder and look similar to this
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27083072/XDA/files.JPG
Then open flashtool and find the folder when you get to teh folder the location shoold appear blank, click open and you will get this
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27083072/XDA/bundle.JPG
copy them to teh right, fill in the top, Device, Version, Branding and click OK

OK, what you have is wolfbreaks rom, this is installed on your phone via xrecovery not an ftf file, if you want to install it you need to install xrecovery on your phone first, then install this from there.
You need a rooted rom for this, so is your rom rooted and what version are you on 2.1 or 2.3
I have x recovery on my phone know. That's how I upgraded from 2.1 to 2.3, because my phone is sim unlocked. Super user is v2.3.6.1 I followed a thread on the upgrade. I can link which thread when I'm home.

Pull it from your ROM's zip file (the one you flashed to your device), copy it to your sdcard and from there push it to your phone with your favorite Rom/file explorer.
