As many people have stated before, it really depends on their view file type extension settings. Not everyone keeps an "out of the box" Operating System.
And those who don't would probably know to add the ".zip" I would think.

You mean that wasn't just my imagination!?
Looks like Android might need to hide its Linux base a little better?

Yeah, but most people that are technologically adept enough to find it necessary to show file extensions understand that naming your file "update.zip.zip" is just silly and there's no reason that Android would need that.

The only reason for the Baseline version to change is if they make changes to your Radios... this is only done rarely ...
like only once for the G1...
So i dont think you have to worry about that ...

Has anyone noticed degraded call quality since upgrading to 2.0.1? I ask because I have noticed it all day. I use my phone a lot for business and I had several calls today with awful call quality and even had a few dropped calls (I can probably count on one hand how many dropped calls I've had in the last year or so). Prior to today I had noticed no such issues with the phone or coverage aside from some minor echoing here and there.

Could some one help me with something, i understand everything but the root directory of sd card. where is the root dir or how do i find it?
It's just the card itself. No folder. Paste in any open space or just save to card.

root, as in bottom or main or 1st layer. Like a treeCould some one help me with something, i understand everything but the root directory of sd card. where is the root dir or how do i find it?
Plug in your phone to your computer using a USB cable, mount the Droid using the pull down notification menu, then open My Computer, enter the Removable Drive that appears, and copy the file there.Root is another term for the first space you see. So, if you go into My Computer, double click on the "removable drive", you are now in the root folder.
------------------
Definition: The root folder of any partition is the "highest" folder in the hierarchy. The root folder contains all other folders and can also contain files.
For example, the root folder of the main partition on your computer is probably C:\. The root folder of your DVD or CD drive might be D:\.
anyone else use the multimedia cradle? Mine will no longer pull in the temperature. I tried to manually set the location too and it cant find anything searching with both zip code and city name.....
This is happening on both mine and my wife's droid, I updated them both to 2.0.1. Update seemed to go smooth, this is my only issue.
Anyone else having this problem?

Just went to email a photo to myself and noticed that only black squares were showing up in the thumbnails, rebooted the phone, gallery is now empty, checked the SD card and it's now back at full capacity, all music/ring tones/videos/pictures are gone, like if the SD card were formatted...
