Anyone else see problems downloading .zips? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

On every ROM & Kernel combo I have tried I often have problems downloading .zip files.
Today I tried to download the official CyanogenMod nightly via Chrome (have also tried Standard browser and ICS Browser+), and it got all the way to 99%, and as it went to 100% it came up Download Unsuccessful!
I have got this while downloading LOADS of things via the Phone - Kernels, Roms etc.
Is everyone else seeing this? Any ideas how to fix?

clear downloads data via settings applications. There are two downloads apps with different names (downloads and download manager I think) just clear cache and data for both.

I use XWind for downloading - much more reliable...

[Q] Market problem

Yesterday i flashed the latest version of the runny Rom and everything seemed fine until i tried to download apps from the market. i cant download anything, market keeps showing that its going to start downloading but the progress bar never moves, i force close Market app and the progress bar doesn't dissapear from the notificacion bar.
i thought i t was the rom so i restore to my previous rom, and the market wasn't working either.
i've tried every solution i've seen on this and other boards (clear data/cache from market app, start gtalk when downloading, clear date/cache from every gApp, uninstall market updates )
i've wipped everything on recovery and installed 4 diferent roms (1.0 2.1 3.0 and 3.5) i've done everything i can think of, and my market still doesn't download anything.
i really hope some could help me.

im gonna try that, and report how it went.
no luck with the fix.apk, im trying to de-root and re-root to see if it helps..
still no luck, please i need help, i've just went back to stock, s-On, and market still not working, then unrevoked, s-Off, custom rom, market still broken. i've tested the the next roms with no luck:
-Community Rc5
-Runny Revolution v1
-Incredible HD V1.0.4 (and with the updates to 1.0.5)
-Miui 1.9.3
-CyanogenMod 7.0.3
-Stock 1.0
-Stock 2.1
Kernels:
- Stock
- Latest Gingertiny
Hope this info could lead to a fix to my problem.
Ok, i think i've found the culprit, i've just tested to download only on 3g/1x and downloads start and finish, on every rom, but when i try to download through wi-fi, downloads never start.
i've checked other sources on the web and apparently its a common issue with all kinds of android phones not just my inc, and some people are able to fix it unblocking some ports on their routers, but i've done that with no luck..
but i have a hunch that my problems started when i installed the latest beta of gingertiny, the one that enables 802.11n... hope with this extra info someone could help me, im really desperate.
Thanx to the couple of people who actually tried to help, if anyone runs into this problem with the market i've found the solution, its not your phone (rom, mods, radios) its actually some kind of issue with your router.. i've just factory reset my router, and the downloads from market started to work again.. hope this helps someone in the future.
updating..
i've found a temporary fix for this!
Yesterday after i reseted my router i though my problems with the market where gone, but they started a couple of hours later.. so i asumed that i wasn't my routers fault.
so i started again testing roms, kernels, unroot, reroot, and bam! found a fix.. not the best one but so far i can download anything from the market..
what i did was:
1.- unroot with PB31IMG.zip (stock rom from last year)
2.- connect to wifi during initial setup
3.- login to my google account during setup
4.- open market app (version 1.82 i think)
5.- download any app (wait what? yes im downloading)
6.- market updates itself and i stop being able to download anything.
so it seems obvious that the culprit was the market, so i freezed "market_updater.apk" to stop the market from autoupdating, uninstall updates and create a backup of that markets verison (1.82)
now im running community rom with that market and everything its perfect, hope this helps someone in the future.

Trouble Downloading ROMs

Hi I did a search and didn't find anything. So I got my SKORPN cable today and was ready to root and flash a new ROM. However, I can't seem to download any of the ROMs on Goo.im. It will start up, but hangs at less than 1MB.
Will becoming a sponser alleviate this problem? What's going on? I don't have a problem donating to things I use, but I don't want to do so if I still won't be able to download. Maybe it's my connection? I don't have trouble downloading off any other website. I've tried it from 2 different computers.
Try force stopping Goo.im sometimes it miss behaves. If that doesn't work then don't use goo.im to download. Try downloading with the browser and flash it through goo

Thanks. I found a way around it before reading your reply. I installed Goomanager on my phone and downloaded it through there. I'll just move it to the computer through USB afterwards. :good:

why do all that? I am currently downloading a ROM with the Opera Mobile web browser and it's very good for downloading. Sometimes it does fail if you go to another app but I've downloaded most ROMs right on the browser and as long as I keep the browser open and surf while it's downloading..........99% of the time there is success

[Q] Gapps not able to run with PACman v20 rom

Hi, I've looked around quite a lot and I can't seem to find a thread that answers my question or even one that has the same issue.
Basically, I want to install the PACman rom with JB 4.2.2. I can get that working pretty well by itself, but the issue comes in when I try to install gapps. I've tried several different versions of gapps and every time, the second the phone boots up it says gapps has crashed. And it continues to pop up. The Play store crashes as soon as it opens, Gmail crashes. the Browser doesn't crash, except on download. And with certain versions of gapps, the Android Keyboard will not run (it crashes before it even opens every single time).
I've found other threads that talk about similar issues with the Galaxy S3 that tell me to go into Settings>Apps>All and enable Download Manager. I can't find that anywhere (which might be the real root of the issue I suppose). I see lots of other activities, all of which are enabled, but no Download Manager or even anything that really sounds like it could be a renamed Download Manager. I've hit the "Restore App Preferences" button too. No good.
I've deleted everything, wiped all possible caches, and repeated the process about 15 times. I've used different orders of doing things (that I find on different forum posts), and different versions of both gapps and PACman. I don't want to go below v20, I don't think, v20.1 doesn't work because WIFI doesn't work (known bug) and I can't find anything higher than that even though I believe v22 is the latest.
I have installed custom roms before. I'm currently using AOKP 4.1.2 and everything works fine with that.
Any help fixing this issue or any alternative suggestion that gives me jb 4.2 would be GREATLY appreciated. I am going for a daily driver rom, not something experimental and (overly) buggy.
THANKS!
PAC 20 is 4.2, did u manage to flash with gapp 4.2 ?

I tried that yes. Though all the PACman stuff says to use 4.1 and it'll work fine. I tried both. Though 4.1 seemed to work "better" than 4.2. As in the keyboard worked.
I think I fixed it
Pretty sure I fixed it. The issue seems to have been that PACman didn't come with DownloadManager.apk ..... Not sure why or if I just happened to download from a bad source, but in any case, that would certainly prevent gapps from downloading things.
So I edited the rom, added DownloadManager.apk from another rom I have on my computer and flashed that with the 4.2.2 gapps. Seems to work great so far!!!!

CM11 + Latest GApps, Play Store Crashes

So i am at a bit of a problem here and i cant figure it out.
I have installed both CM11 from 04/24/14, and tried the 4/08/14 Experimental build, both with the latest GApps zip file for CM11 from
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps
The install seems to go fine, CM11 works, i can get wifi, connect to google account, gmail, internet, hangouts everything works..
Except Play Store...it crashes every time. Ive tried everything i can think of, those things include
Run the installed one from Gapps, it starts and i can see the initial disclaimer i have to accept then it crashes.
Download Google Play store apk and push it via ADB install, doesnt load.
Use GAppManager, the instant i select a version of GApps to install it crashes.
Try flashing an earlier version of GApps(For ICS) from KFFAide, doesnt work..
Go into Apps, find Google Play store that comes from the flashed GApps and clear its cache...
Ive tried flashing just CM11, booting it, then going back into TWRP and flashing GApps
Tried clearing dalvik/system and every other TWRP wipe except internal
Im really out of ideas...any help would be great nothing i do seems to do it...
I also tried flashing back to a version of 10.2 Experimental for KF HD but it just fails immediately when i try.

Try the GAPPS from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942 find which ones you want to use and then choose goo as the download place. Then get a slightly older Gapps. I'm using a set from 1-23-2014 and have had zero issues. They will update anyway so having today's 0 day Gapps is not a huge deal. If you want mini Gapps, here is the link http://goo.im/devs/paranoidandroid/roms/gapps-mini/older versions

I've been using the latest GApps ("stock" experience) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942 and it works great. It will error out some apps the first time with a notification that you must update Google Play Services to continue. Sign in and update Google Play Services through the store and everything works like a champ.
A bonus of using the PA GApps package (if you want all those apps at all) is that they install to /system and don't use up as much /data space. Maybe not an issue for many, but every little bit helps right?
Keep in mind that the "stock" (i.e. Nexus-esque) package will remove the AOSP Browser, Messaging, and Keyboard. As long as you're good with Chrome, Hangouts, and Google Keyboard, this (again) saves you storage. If you prefer the AOSP apps, read the thread for how to keep them or install one of the other packages from the thread.
It turns out the issue is unrelated to Google apps, ANY application i use and try to download with will crash.
Try to grab an attachment from Gmail, crash
Try to download a file via Chrome, crash
Try to download via Play store, crash
I have no idea what the hell is causing this ive checked my Download and Downloader apps they are both running, ive tried restarting them, disabling them, and many other things...
At this point how do i return my Kindle to a "Stock" Kindle Fire HD as if i bought it from the store?
I may need to return it, im wondering if this is a hardware issue? Doesnt make sense though because everything else seems to work, i can go view internet stuff so the wifi isnt bad, and i can copy files to it via USB so the storage isnt bad...

While downloading, file disappears before 100%

I have an issue that sprouted about a month ago. No matter what ROM I'm running, if I start to download a file (a new ROM zip, for example) it just disappears mid-download. I'll get to maybe 30%, then it's just gone. I have to go back to the link and click download again.
The only way I can sometimes get through a whole download is to change display settings so that my screen stays on throughout the whole download process. If I close my screen or do anything else, like go to another app, the download disappears at some point, every time!
Any suggestions? Phone didn't do this when I first got it or even after I rooted and ran a custom ROM for a while. It just started randomly..
Happened to me too. Was downloading a ROM and it just disappeared twice (once at 99%). Had to download via ADM.
Same here happens a lot to me, happened in community beta and oxygen os.. So using adm now
yep same here too. FreedomOS 1.5.1 (oos 3.2.6)
Same problem for me too. Even while downloading from play store(1GB+ games etc)
Hopefully this is addressed then, because obviously it's not just me.
Is anyone here using chrome as their browser?
I was told to try an alternative. Now downloads are fine. I'm using Pyrope browser. It's great and it's in the play store.
So i had this issue. Last few days nearly all rom downloads from different sources got aborted. I had a homebutton that was a bit wonkey so i decided to wipe all partitions, including internal storage and sideload oos 3.2.7 to see if it would solve that issue.
So i did. And then after reading this thread decided on a little test. I downloaded 4 roms from different sources including from afh and none aborted.
I can't be absolutely sure at this point that the the full wipe did the trick but it sure looks like it. I'll keep a lookout to see if the issue remains solved.
Here the same probmem ... Corruopted file system?
Still happening for me. Is it because of Chrome?
Play store downloads and third party downloaded are fine
It'a a chrome issue.
