Mediafire Problems? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sorry to ask this here, but is anyone else having problems downloading roms/add ons/ themes/ anything at all from Media Fire? For a couple days now, the little button that says 'click here to start download' just never appears. I've used internet explorer 8, internet explorer 9 (just updated it), google chrome, and my Evo's browser. I can't download any file at all!
Also, since I can't seem to download anything from mediafire, does anyone happen to have a mirror of the Matted Blues theme for SalvageMod 1.2.1? It would be greatly appreciated.

I had a problem the other day on chrome [main browser] so used i.e. explorer 9, and it downloaded just fine. Is the file in the salvage mod/themes thread, and I'll host in it my dropbox for ya.
Edit: Downloading now; up in a minute or 2.
二 Edit: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19699565/MattedBlues-v2.9-SalvageMod1.2.1.zip There ya go man.

Thanks man. I have no idea what the issue is, because I can't get it from my computer, on any browser, or on my phone's browser? It's happening on any mediafire file that I try to download, regardless of what it is. Oh well, I'll continue research on that elsewhere. Thanks again for the mirror.

No problem man. It happens to me as well periodically. You can try to clear you cache/cookies on your browser, that may help.

Yea, I just tried that before I updated to IE9. Still didn't work. I'm not sure, I suppose there are probably a bunch of settings in the browser that can be messed with, but I certainly haven't changed anything recently. I was thinking it was Mediafire, because it's not working on my phone either. However, you were just able to download the file fine. I'm puzzled.

I think it is mediafire, but I hope the issue resolves itself.

Happened to me on FireFox. Had to fire up IE to get it.

[Q] Anyone else having problems downloading via 4shared.com?

I hought it was just an issue with the ROM I was running, but I've tried it on multiple one now. Any time I try and download a file from 4shared.com from my phone, I can't. It downloads anywhere from 6-82kB and then the download dies.
Anyone with some insight??

I started having this problem back when I still had my Hero. Once it started I was never able to successfully download anything from 4shared over my phone again.
I never looked in to it much. I wonder if changing your UA in the browser to Desktop would help?

Tried that...no beans.
I wish people would use personal servers, or Google Docs. Google Docs let's you upload anything up to 1 GB. You only get 1GB of storage for free, but you can by Google storage pretty cheap and have way more than that. Just saying.
Works for me

All browsers stop loading in the middle of a webpage

....except for Opera. Stock, xScope, Dolphin, etc all fail to load anything.
I have no idea when this started. Just flashed from CM7 #20 from #5 with a full wipe and everything to see if that fixed the problem. On the very first boot, without signing into my Google account, every website loads fine. Then I signed into my Google account through the market, downloaded Titanium Backup, and tried the same website again, which didn't work. 3G is still connected, it's just not downloading anything. Every other app that uses 3G works fine. I'm pretty sure Titanium Backup isn't the problem meaning something is wrong with my Google account?
no help for me?

I believe there is a newer version of CM than #20. Have you tried that?
Also did you check if anyone else is having a similar issue with this rom in the rom forum?
Are you experiencing the same problems with wifi?
What kernel are you using?
What screen version phone do you have?
Have you experienced any other issues with your phone?
Have you seen this problem before with other roms?
You said ...except for Opera. Stock, xScope, Dolphin, etc what does this mean? Everything else works ok except the browsers you specified? If so, what works then?
Help would be on the way once more information is provided for troubleshooting. The more information you provide the better someone can jump in with a possible solution and brainstorming Cheers.
Did you restore anything from TiB? Should only do App Only, never System Data if that's the case.

Running #22 right now but that doesn't seem to make a difference. Even on the very first boot the browser doesn't load any pages. Same problem with wifi. Using Chad's 4.1 kernel. AMOLED screen. Didn't notice this problem until maybe a week ago when I as on #5. For some reason, the market started force closing on me too this morning even after a new wipe/ROM, probably has something to do with the new Android web store or something.

Hmmm, can you try a different AOSP kernel? Test that and let us know if you are getting different results.

Everything works fine on the latest Evervolv. Guess it's a CM7 thing. Anyone know what exactly is wrong though?
Could've been your host file blocking (or at least attempting to block) ads. That was my problem before. I deleted it and poof, everything was fine lol.

I also had a problem where the stock browser would stop downloading web pages on CM 6.1, I was on the last nightly version whatever that was. I downloaded the newest flashplayer 10 from the market and that fixed it.
Cache?
Assuming you tried clearing browser cache and any/all cookies, etc?

Woo! This was my problem. I guess I'll start using Adfree instead of some host file I found online. Thanks a lot!

Android Market 3.3.11

androidpolice.com/2011/11/01/download-android-market-3-3-11-adds-new-settings-default-auto-update-update-over-wi-fi-only-shortcuts-and-more/
Can't post the link, sorry!
link: http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/1...te-update-over-wi-fi-only-shortcuts-and-more/
Installed this earlier today. Seems to be working good so far. I like the Auto update option over wifi setting. It also seems to be more responsive than the 3.2 that I have been using.
Sweet, my biggest annoyance with the market was how I could only chose between auto-updating and possibly wasting my data plan (minor I know but I don't NEED the facebook update instantly) and having to manually do it. Love how MIUI has the option.

mine is working good to on MIUI I wonder how much earlier did we actually get this update from other people who will get it from their carriers?
After installing this, I started getting "popup" ads in my status bar. After uninstalling they went away.
Did I miss a setting or something? Lookout scan shows no threat, but I can only assume it was this market given the evidence...
can someone enlighten me on how to install this blasted thing?

You should be able to navigate to it in a file explorer (like rootexplorer) and just click on it to install.
Yeah I figured it out. Search-fu is lazy today lol.

[Q] Ad Blocking

Can someone tell me why I still have ads on my apps?
I am rooted with one-click, installed Calkulin's rom 2.9.2 and went ahead and installed Adfree to see if it would help. Still have ads.
Never had a problem with the rooting or flashing the rom. I have also tried several modems trying to find the best for my phone. I currently have FC18 installed and it seems to be the best so far, Sat. lock is almost instant.
Thanks in advance,
Rick
OP where are you seeing the ads?
Did you run adfree and rebooted your phone ?
I'm on blazer and see ads in tweetcaster. That's the only one as far as I can tell
go to the settings in Addfree.

Yes, sometimes this works the first time I run app, but the next time the ads return.

Rom toolbox works for me... there is a great ad blocking feature in it and works better than adfree

Add free works best while app with adds is running, hit home button, open add free, run add free, you should get a conf. No add present, do this while on wi-fi .
Works for me every time.

Tried adfree, adaway and rom toolbox.
Still get ads on some apps.
Oh well, they are free apps so can't really complain.
Edit: I found another post on another forum and it stated if the host file shows a bunch of IP addresses as "127.0.0.1", then it didn't work. Anybody know how to fix this?
Same here its only w ics

Odd...that is precisely the core of the ad-block... basically any address that points to that, say ad.doubleclick.net gets redirected internally to the loop address, i.e. it wont be able to load the ad since its being blocked. It could be that the application is getting the ad from somewhere else. Try droid wall.

[Q] Decks Reloaded Questions(believe me i searched before i did this)

I even checked another one in the similar posts thread before finally writing this up. Ok
heres the skinny.
Rom is obv decks reloaded, as far as i know i have the latest update, released on the 25th of may. 44 mag rls.
i did the custom install and went with just about everything optional. (i also have run it in the standard install, the questions i have remain the same, affected me both ways)
I declined to run dtapps2sd because i have so much music on my sd card that backing it all up before wiping and partioning was just not an option.
Using amon-ra recovery
did complete wipes 3x, plus the wiper zip recommended, i love it. It is dam near perfection. Everything runs better, battery lasts longer, no more sprint nascar updates, no more sprint anything, I still have a wee bit of room left on internal storage, i just have, a few little questions/problems
1.I cannot for the life of me, figure out how to download attachments from my email in this rom, i have tried different email apps, ive tried installing the gmail attachment fetcher apps, everything i can think of. still cant get it to let me download anything, wont even pop up the option, just shows a paperclip, mocking me.
2.this might be my main irritation, i dont know what the deal is, or what is going on, but on my first install, and now randomly on my final, i get a weird, brrrgrgrggrggg dj remix dubstep lag sound while im playing music, and sadly, the dsp settings enabling the bassboost, is actually one of my FAVORITE parts about this whole rom, it makes my music sound great, but when it does that nearly in every song playing. it gets annoying, and im trying to figure out why.
I have a 32 gb kingston card, its always worked great, its not even a year old. and its never had a problem before. i still have 8 gigs free on it. I also noticed, when i did my final install, it seemed to actually stop doing it. Until i tried to plug it into my laptop via usb. Then, it was doing it really bad. Took the micro sd out, put it back in, settled down a bit. but i dont know. its a strange, strange thing. Anyone else having this issue? Or know a cause?
3. The usb tether... I saw this quesiton posted before, and the only suggestion was downloading the same version im already running. It will connect, but then, it just keeps asking to connect again, and my status bar starts bouncing text up and down, just go with a usb sync app from the market? any thoughts?
finally,
4. I know its on there, but how do i install the miui cam, i have a file explorer, i cant find it. Is this because im not running apps2sd? If not, where is it located, i looked under apps and data, i did not see anything, and then if i can get pointed to where the heck it is, what is the process, moving it to the folder the actual camera is in, and renaming it to an apk?
I admit. Im still new to all this.
but i do have much love, and, i owe xda, android forums and max @ evohacks alot of thanks and gratitude. Im doing my best, at giving a little where i can
i was going to post a screen shot,but i cant, because im too new , to show i did buy the xda PREMIUM app, what what hahaha...
any help, especially from one of the devs or a certified super genius on this rom, would be greatly, greatly, appreciated. ****, ill say it right now. help me solve these problems, and i will donate to your cause, buy your t-shirt, subscribe to your twitter, blog, whatever(sell my soul, give you my firstborn child....). Truly. and i stick to my word(especially on the soul/child). BIG BIG THANKS to all the devs who made this rom, TRULY. i FN LOVE IT. and if i never figure this crap out, ill keep using it anyways. Until they make a newer one, or i get my GSIII whenever someone decides to tell me when theyre going to actually release the 64gb version. ok. probably way too much talky. bye bye

I'm not sure about your other questions but at least for this one you need a file explorer that allows you to browse outside the sd card (I use root explorer) and then it is in data/app and is labled "MIUI Camera 17.apk" just tap it and it should ask you if you want to install it. At that point it is just an app on your phone.
For the other questions you might be better off posting this in the thread for Decks reloaded. Once it is in there you are more likely to get a response from rope, jaime or one of the other helpful people using this rom who know more than I do
I had the usb problem as well in fact posted about it a few days ago. What worked for me was the second solution of downloading bootmanager lite from the market hope that helps you!
thank you guys

If you're having a problem with the rom, and can find the answer after searching xda and google, the dev's are usually ok with helping you out. If it is a problem unique to you, they'll try and help you and if it's a global problem with teh rom, they will want to know about it anyways.
btw, I replied to your pm about the file explorer.
