Try download all app from Google Play.
Is your internal memory full? Happened to me before, after I filled my phone up with music. And it wouldn't even tell me memory is full, it just failed downloads. Moved/deleted some files and downloads worked fine after.

Did you buy a used phone? Might be an internal hardware issue.
Firefox or Opera are the only two browsers that work to download anything. Plus while downloading do not exit the app.

Its probably the network.. I noticed running on sprints network whe the phone would go into deep sleep the radio would turn off and download would fail.. My suggestion is to try force roaming with another prl and try to download while roaming.. For some reason when im on sprint prl 60687 using sprints 3g data i have to keep screen on until its finished.. While roaming i can throw it on the charger and come back to a finished download. Or get a browser that will allow you to start/stop the download but this way you might get a bad download.. I wish more devs would use torrents since its way easier to download using adownloader

It's because the file type is not compatible with any apps you have. I had the same problem. Download any file explorer from the play store and it'll work

Go into the market and search "Astro". Its a great file explorer and if you go into "Menu"......."Preferences"....and check box that says "Enable Browser Downloads" then reboot. You can now DL anything from any site.

I don't know if the stock android browser supports it, but in Dolphin Browser or Opera you can download any type of file. You can use something like file expert to open the zip file.

I've never experienced any issues downloading any files, let alone zip files, using multiple browsers. I'm currently using a blacked out version of Dolphin mini (ty Starsky's rom) and have yet to have an issue still. I usually use Root Explorer to move the file to the folder of my choice, and I guess roms take a bit longer than most files (size) but never any issues. Good luck!

What ROM are you on?
I think it's the file host some of the rom devs use, or possibly his router. For certain roms, downloading over wifi fails no matter what I do, and I end up using 3G.(unlimited plan, 150mb is nothing)

If you have the problem that yours won't update then delete it from system/app and then install this as a normal .apk... no need to push to system/app.... you probably can but there is no need to as it installs just fine as a normal app

Try the app "Download all files" - know that works for me. Usually it's a lack of file association.

check the download directory. Dolphin>Settings>More>Settings>Privacy & Personal Data and see if there is something in there. Check you 'download' directory too (sdcard/download).

But it is dowloading now, right? That solves your first problem.
Opening a rar will require an app and there are free ones out there on Play.
Sent from my SPH-D710
No they do not download what so ever on wifi 3g or 4g all browsers will just pop up and say error. I'm really thinking its just sprint blocking filesharing sites or something internally wrong with my phone. Its the same thing for downloading roms, tools for roms, or even music that's contained in rars. It just refuses to downlaod things off of browsers.
Edit: it appears to be a memory problem with the internal storage switched it to external dl location and it started working.I was unaware cuz this was previously my girls phone. Thanks for the responses and help.

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Apple has been pressuring everyone to ditch flash for years. From what ive heard Jobs HATED Adobe which is why no apple product ever supported flash. If its not Apple tech or built specifically for and around apple, this is what they would do. Iphones dominance early on is what helped them succeed in killing flash.
If apple doesn't like something they will go to extremes to destroy it. They have to protect their one good idea per decade somehow I suppose!

First I would make sure on the torrent app you're using (Bittorrent, Ttorrent, Utorrent etc) isn't the problem.
I remember when I had downloaded Bittorrent it asked me if I only wanted to download torrents while on WiFi and I accidentally hit the "yes" button and it never let me change it back.
So first, go into your applications and clear defaults for your torrent app and make sure you hit "no" when that prompt shows.
If that doesn't help, I would recommend rooting and uninstalling the Knox apps using Titanium Backup.
That's what I did and torrents work fine for me.
