I have the same problem. Can't help you out other than using another browser. I alternate between dolphin and ninesky, which have more features than the default browser.

So I'm not the only person having this problem I really don't like any other browser to me there all the same would be nice to kno if its just us could be something to bring up to fix for the sfr 1.3

Either use another browser off the market or go into another rom (Like EC05 Plus) and snag the browser apk file and use Root Explorer to replace the old with the new file.
I stopped using stock browser and swapped to Miren. More options and better UI.

Unable to download APKs from the browser?

Whenever I try to download an APK from the browser it says my phone doesn't support that file type. I think I remember it being able to before. Any ideas?

There's an app called "download all files" it's like a browser plugin

I use Xscope. It isn't free I don't think. Honestly, don't get it. haha
I use dolphin browser hd. Also have your unknown sources checked in the application settings.
Make sure you have some type of file browser installed, otherwise you will get this error. I think, one comes installed but not sure.

The stock browser has this problem. When download some files, it will have some kind of check. Once it found something incompatible, it will notify user and prevent them from downloading. Maybe you could try other browser. Recommend Boat Browser. It supports pause/resume/retry when downloading. You can find it in Android market.
I enabled astro's download anything for stock browser but I told me I have to dissable the setting anytime I want to download a attachment in gmail. Kinda lame :-(

[Q] Unable to download files from xda

Hello I'm sorry if this has already been brought up but I was unable to find it and the search button is not functioning on my old computer.
Everytime I attempt to download from XDA (of course I am signed in) I immediately get a download unsuccessful message. I have tried Opera Mini, Dolphin HD browser and also have cleaned all cache, history, and data from browsers.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks Jeremy
Get the app "Download all files"
It'll let you download the files

What I do is hit menu then more and then hit browser and select opera. It will open what u are looking at into the browser then u should be able to download what u need. I have the same problem.

That's only needed for the stock browser. He is using opera and dolphin.

I don't know if the stock android browser supports it, but in Dolphin Browser or Opera you can download any type of file. You can use something like file expert to open the zip file.

OP just stated downloading. Stock browser on EI22 works fine for that. Miren stopped working for some reason though.

i'm with the OP.. i've never had good luck consistently getting .zip files to download. Most the time they'll go to start, hang for a min, then fail. tried stock browser, and a couple others. doesn't seem to matter what rom I'm using either.

This has been working fine for me since EH17 when it got fixed. I download full ROMs with no problem.

I've never experienced any issues downloading any files, let alone zip files, using multiple browsers. I'm currently using a blacked out version of Dolphin mini (ty Starsky's rom) and have yet to have an issue still. I usually use Root Explorer to move the file to the folder of my choice, and I guess roms take a bit longer than most files (size) but never any issues. Good luck!

What ROM are you on?
I think it's the file host some of the rom devs use, or possibly his router. For certain roms, downloading over wifi fails no matter what I do, and I end up using 3G.(unlimited plan, 150mb is nothing)

Stock Browser Doesn't Let Me Download...

Has anyone been experiencing this issue? I can pretty much download anything in a 'third party' browser like Dolphin HD, but my question is with the stock browser. I'm not a Dolphin fan since that whole "capture you information" issues with them, so I been getting myself use to use the stock browser that came with our SGS2..
I only had my AWESOME phone for only a week.. I came from a HTC G2, which I never had this problem.
How come I can't download anything? It would say download unsuccessful. If I go into downloads and press on the it, it would say "Download Failed. Can not download. The content is not supported on this phone.". I'm trying to download simple MP3s from the Coast to Coast AM site..
I never experienced this issue with my G2 on any browser. On my new SGS2, it can only be downloaded from third party browsers...
Any guesses?
It seems (as I type this post) someone in the G2X forums has also been experiencing this issue HERE.
Download astro file manager and I. Settings enable browser download. It'll let you use stock browser for dl. Its not a bug it happens with most stock browsers.

Or you can use Opera Mobile Browser. That lets you download straight from the server link.

[REQ] Stock Flash apk (ASAP)

If you haven't yet heard, Adobe is ending all support for mobile Flash entirely on August 15th, 2012 (tomorrow). This includes stopping all new downloads of Flash, which means removal of the Flash apk from the Google Play Store. Since we're all enterprising smartphone users who still want to use Flash, I request that someone post the stock apk file. Even if we have backups like Titanium for the system data, it's nice to have a clean apk to download from for our future phones, especially since mobile Flash effective has no future.
Thanks in advance.
Google search for the apk. I know for a fact it's posted in many threads in the Nexus 7 forum.
Here is Adobe Flash 11 on Box.

Honestly, I'm surprised how many people downloaded this from my box account.

Anyone having major problems with flash player working? I can't seem to get it to work. I installd and restored like 3 different versions and they all do the same thing. When I open a page with a flash video in it it appears normal (a white box with the little download symbol thingy in the middle) but when I press the video it shows a little blue box with a "x" in it I think or something like that. I've also tried different roms (a tw rom and cm9) and I get the samee result.

You aren't using Chrome, right? It isn't supported with Chrome. Try AOSP browser from ICS, Firefox, or Dolphin HD.

Am I the only one who paid attention when Adobe said flash will no longer accept new installs but you can find it in the archives?
Go to adobe.com and click downloads and then flash and choose android...it'll take you to the playstore to download it.
I did it andits working flawlessly on cm9.1 however its not in the "my apps" list in the play store
