Downloads Unsuccessful! - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

For some reason if i download larger files over 3g and i set my phone down and let it go into a deep sleep, when i pick it up and check the downloads they will be unsuccessful. How do i stop this? I don't want to have to play with my phone to keep it from going to sleep

you can try a different browser or use astro file manager to download files for default browser,download astro from market place,then press menu more preferences and enable browser downloads,its good for different file types and it works pretty good with downloading.

Is there somewhere I can go to learn how to use this app. How do I add a torrent site. When hit the plus sign it just list all my files on my SD card.

Here's how I do it:
Google what you want using keywords, example: "300 movie torrent" then search
Links will show up, usually the ones on the first page are the best. I like to pick the well known sites like piratebay and kickasstorrents
Click the link to the page and find download torrent link, click that and torrent will download, drop down the notification bar where it says download complete, hit that, swarm should be in the "open with" choices. Hit swarm and the the app will launch with the torrent active.

So he automatically stole it or something?
cd's or tapes?
Try opening the game then hold power button and turn airplane mode on. Then do it again and turn airplane mode off. Then click yes to download.

He said he downloaded the .apk, so it's a pretty reasonable (and probably spot on) presumption.

its not considered warez its just the app, i can get apps that are free on market on websites because the market wont download it sometimes or update.
Don't you have to download every app? Be it from the market or some site?

Im confused what are you saying exactly " you have download every app"?
I have seen this happen on several games that need additional data
Some allow dl over 3G, some only over WiFi
Need for speed is another game that does WiFi dl only
Gameloft is stupid. I downloaded Modern Combat 2 and Asphalt 6 directly from their website. Like the op says, it downloads a small app, which you then install to your phone. Upon opening the game, it tells you that have to download additional xxxMB to play the game.
I had issues where it would say I needed to be connected to wi-fi and times where I could download in 3g. But, it would take too long to download in 3g, then something would always cause the download to fail.
I just had to keep uninstalling, then re-installing the games until they worked. I was able to download Asphalt 6 in 3g and Modern Combat 2 with wi-fi.
Just keep un-installing and re-installing until it allows you to download.

best browser for downloading media?

i made another post regarding download issues with my Inc 2 but it has come to my attention that certain browsers now block you from being able to download stuff like .mp3 files. that being the case, I currently use the stock browser, dolphin hd and skyfire. downloads dont seem to work with any of them.
does anyone know of a browser that will allow you to download media?... and to let you know, i can download torrents just fine with adownloader.

Download astro file manager. Go into preferences and check the box to allow browser downloads.
I've had other phones that would not allow me to download anything until this was done.
I have "Download All Files" installed and have been able to use that when email attachments or other downloads fail to make it to my SD for whatever reason. I'm not a big fan of the option to use it popping up almost every time I click a link though...

Unable to download APKs from the browser?

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] How to enable download through 4G?

I'm new to the galaxy section so give me a little break. My previous 2 devices never had this issue.
How to you enable the phone to download files(any files) through your 4g network or even wiring?
I cannot seem to be able to download ANYTHING to my phone regardless of wifi or 4g.

I've had the issue as well. I tried many different sites. Typically megaupload worked for me but not on this device. I have no workaround that I have found yet and can suggest.
Download Astro file manager from the market its free, then open it, go under file manager/ then scroll the top tabs right to "preferences" and put a check mark next to enable browser downloads. Works for me.

Thanks! I'll try this out!
I use "Download all files" from the market because astro didn't work for me. Give it a try if you find yourself in my situation.

Opera Mobile is also better about downloading files.
I noticed this issue with the browser too. I installed FireFox mobile and it works great for downloading from Multiupload!
yea i had the same problem. it has something to do with the browser, now i am using dolphin Browser HD and no problems i can download from any website i want. so just download another browser from market.
try dolphin HD. works amazing
Dolphin HD is much slower than Opera Mobile and has trouble with sites like fileserve.
