May sound stupid but, have you checked to see if you have sufficient storage space available?

Have you tried downloading from a computer then transferring it over?
Phone downloads at times can corrupt a download but not stop it.

try using a different browser.
For whatever reason, I have never had any problems whatsoever using Xscope:

Also, this apk is called "download all files", and it works well when having that issue:

Hope this helps.

Yes I have available space. Never had a problem using my evo. I could download directly from xda using tapatalk on the phone

Mine did the same thing. Something to do with the stock browser only allowing downloads of certain file types.
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.

[Q] I can't download zip files

I didn't have any problems on my last ET4G anyone know how to fix this?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
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.

If you are using the default browser, try a different one from the market. Dolphin works fine for me

Can't download

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?

Or search for "crutch" on xda.

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:

More information, what are you trying to download, what browsers have you tried??
You always write these incomprehensible posts and never give any info.

Usually a different browser will work.
Or search play store for a downloader, it will strictly download the link you put in.
If it's a rom, just download on pc

Hello sir, try changing the settings in the browser to where actual files are downloaded to. If it says save to memory card change to internal, or vise versa. Hope it helps. The option is "default storage"

I also cant download files from app.... helppp

What files from what app? This is sort of like calling a mechanic and telling him your car won't start, then asking him to fix it over the phone. Please give more details. Also did you try any of the browser suggested?

What rom....and what apps2sd scripts are you using if any ?
Changes you've made recently have caused this ???
Updates perhaps ???
My thoughts are leaning toward applications that point to downloads being force placed to external storage...
And the default is internal storage..
Something is likely causing a conflict in the mapping before the download starts...
If you are not opposed to testing, you should revert to a known rom setup that worked..
Or if needed...restore the device totally if the issue cannot be found...
Scripts are often hard to track down ...and I think one of them...or at least parts are present that prevent the correct mapping to occur...
Just my thought at 3 a.m.
So go easy on me....LOL...g

dont waste your time with this person; he/she never responds, never gives enough info, and, just posts bizarre stuff all over the place and never follows up on anything..
