One to many sub folders. Make sure it is /sdcard/nandriod/smokedglassv4.0/filesforrom and not /sdcard/nandroid/smokeglassv4.0/smokeglassv4.0/filesforrom .
Also make sure you unzipped it. Just saying that cause you didn't stat it in your post.

I'm not sure I follow, are you doing a nandroid restore? or an update.zip?

AndExplorer is what I use. Just have to click on the file and it will ask you to unzip.

Yes, nandroid backup files don't go in the root directory like the update.zip file. Also, as mentioned, you have to extract the files before putting them in the nandroid folder. Additionally, the files need to be in a folder within the nandroid folder.

this is correct. make a folder within the nadroid folder and unzip the files there.
