Anyone else experience this issue? I can't even download a simple apk from the xda website.

Even though I set the default browser to "desktop", I am also unable to download zip files. I ended up using XScope browser to download zips and it's working fine. I'm fairly certain other browsers should also work.
I noticed this as well when I tried to download apps from other websites. I really would like to find a work around for this with the Dolphin browser if anyone knows how please share
Download "download all files" from the market. It fixes the downloading problem with the stock browser. Its free also

Download astro, go into preferences and select to allow downloads from browser. Simple as that.

Somehow whenever I go to download a zip file from an xda link. It tells me download unsuccessful? Is this a new feature on gingerbread? Is there a workaround?

Try using Dolphin, Boat Browser, or Opera. These always work for me when the stock browser fails.

Another member was having the same problem in another thread. Below is my quoted advice:
Download this app (it's tiny) from the market. It works with your native browser by unlocking it's ability to download files of all types. Install it and open it. Arrow back out. Then open your browser and download your file like usual. You should be able to download any file of any type from now on.

Whenever I go to download a ROM it says download failed, actually pretty much any file. This is my first day with this phone but it is rooted and running juggernaut ROM. But I had the same problem on stock. I'm coming from the infuse so I'm really familiar with Samsung phones but never had this issue on that phone. Any suggestions?

You have a couple of options to help you out. First look in the market for an app called astro file explore. Open it hit menu, then preference then enable downloads. Or look for the app download all files and use it. Either one will solve your problem.

Anyone uses one browser have an issue with seeing some menu options? Everything is always blank for me. Is there anyway to fix this myself or is it the developers issue to fix?
Also anyone recommend any browsers? I used to use dolphin which was the best ever but lately its only been getting worse. All I need is a browser that kind of has the "speed dial" options of dolphin (a start up screen with links to bookmarked pages).

Have you tried opera mobile?

Or if you're using an Android version above Gingerbread, you can use Chrome for Android

Speed dial plus speed is UC Browser (English version), but I doubt you won't like it. As for me I use UC when I download things (multithread acceleration) but use Jellybean's default browser for else.

I haven't tried opera yet. And chrome isn't exactly what I'm looking for but I could give it a try. And ill try uc too. Thanks for ur replies.

Flashplayer doesn't seem to work on uc so I need to find something else lol.

I'm using opera on 4.2.2. Maybe you have a DPI conflict with the play store. Flash works sometimes on opera, but is getting progressively jankier as time goes by.

Nope, that's a history issue for UC 7.x, they need a plugin. UC 8 natively support as I've read somewhere.

Ya I've changed the dpi ofmy phone. I guess ill just stick with one browser for now its only problem is the menu options don't show but other than that it works fine.

Like the title says, when tapping on a goo.gl/ link, chrome says web page not available. Is there a setting in Chrome to fix this? It worked before the jelly bean update.
Thanks

I have same problem with Twitter and other apps. I thought it it was the Imperiam initiative agent mod but I realized it works when I choose Browser but not Chrome. But some apps that have there own built in browser don't work either. So I don't know...

I just noticed this a couple days ago. I was figuring it was something to do with the hosts file I'm using for ad-blocking, but haven't gotten around to messing with it yet.
Is there a fix for this I'm unaware of? It is becoming extremely annoying. Are not more people having this issue?
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
I'm still looking for something. I have the stock browser disabled so using that isn't an option. Not sure why chrome can't handle these links
Sent from my LG-LS970
Nothing for this yet? How is everyone else viewing the shortened links given on this site or anywhere else with chrome on their mobile device?
Sent from my LG-LS970
Did anyone ever figure out how to fix this? I've tried like 4 different browsers.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
The shortened links work in the stock browser but it. Have disable that to use Chrome only.
