Can't download roms on this phone? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

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.

[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 a Rom

I have been trying to download a from directly from my phone to internal storage. Whether on wifi or 3d I get a message saying unsuccessful. I am using ET4G

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.

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.

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?

Download astro file manager from market,then go to setting preference click box where it says enable internet downloads.

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:
