What can I do to enable successful downloading from the browser? An example would be downloading attachments from my yahoo account or downloading files directly from xda_developers. Please help.
Thanks,
Jonathon
Edit: currently running TNT 2.1.1 w/ CW recovery
Edit: it always says download unsuccessful. I made sure My partion is 2mb/0 too.
I had the same problem with the stock browser, downloading works well with dolphinHD though... maybe switch to a different browser?
Your right. I downloaded a file download app and dolphin hd browser app. Using the dolphin browser, I have been able to download attachments and random file types that are linked on webpages. I may not have even needed the file download app.
I have always had that problem with stock browser.....I think everyone does .....the question needs to be, who CAN download attachments with stock browser.

Not sure about the game data, but to download any file within the browser, try "download all files" from market

Try changing the user agent in the browser settings.

WTF?!?!
OWW WELL...
I seem to be unable to download files over the internet with my TF300.
I can download OK from Google Play and via torrent clients, but not from download sites (eg DepositFiles, Oron).
When I try to download a file from a website I get a "waiting for data connection" message in the Download Manager window. The download eventually times out.
I have "allow installation of non-Market apps" checked.
I have root but no ROMs.
Build is .30; ICS 4.0.3.
I have tried stock browser, ICS Browser+ and Maxthon.
I have tried clearing cache.
Anyone have a solution please?
Grateful for any advice.
regards
Try dolphin mini

Thanks R3Z4545. Installing Dolphin Mini now allows me to download from Megashare sites (but not others - no idea what makes that site so special).
Does success with Dolphin Mini indicate the issue relates to caching maybe?
I'm also thinking the culprit may be the adfree app I installed after rooting. I might tinker with that and report back after work.
regards
Adfree will prevent downloads from sites that use advertising like adfly.
Hey try downloading "download all files" and adobe reader.....i had that problem and this always helps.

Download all files doesn't seem to work on the websites I need it to. Thanks for the tip though. It will still come in handy.
And it seems Adfree wasn't the culprit after all. Uninstalling it has made no difference.
Apart from doing a factory reset, or making do with Dolphin Mini (which at least allows me to download sometimes), I'm out of ideas.
Thanks all for assist.
hi everyone
i have a samsung galaxy note 10.1 Gt-8010, and i am having trouble installing media flash player on my tablet.
On the samsung apps they suggest something like going to adobe website and download the app, do i need to go through the external SD card and after that to transferet it to my tablet? if some one has a step by step manoeuvre how to do it that will be very appreciated.
thanks

Use Dolphin web browser or stock web browser to access flash

Search google for archived versions of flash player or click link. http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html Scroll about half way down the page and look for then click and download the newest flash version for android 4.0 .It will be the top link in that section. Tap taskbar then tap settings then tap security then tap to check the box that will allow "install from unknown sources". When the file is downloaded click on it from the taskbar and allow install. When it is installed click the app from the all apps page and it will ask you what browser to open it in if you have multiple browsers installed. Open it in stock browser. No need to adjust settings just opening it associates it. Your done.
Dolphin browser and chrome browser DO NOT work with flash unless you edit xml prefs so do not use dolphin or chrome. Boat browser and stock browser work with flash natively. Personally I have found that boat works well stock works real well and dolphin browser when you have edited the xml works best of all.

Basically agree with description of where to get Flash Player and how to install. OTOH, having completed the install, Flash worked just fine with Dolphin (and stock browser) without editing anything. I thought Chrome just flat didn't support Flash.
Thanks to all of you

What flash content did you play with dolphin? Because as far as i know it does not support flash without edit. Go to settings and look at flash status. In current dolphin versions flash is disabled and will not turn on. Dolphin plays flash content on mine because I edited it to do so. Chrome does not support add ons on mobile platform.
edditing, how?
So how do You do the edditing.?

I have been unable to use Flash Player in Firefox on KitKat. I have to use Dolphin.

Did you select auto play or tap to play in the plugin settings? If one doesn't work, give the other a try. The setting is a bit fickle.
Also, did you just place the APK in the folder? Have you tried simply installing the official flasplayer apk as an actual app?
(though I've swapped to Dolphin, the last few recent Firefox updates have made it painfully slow.)

I did, of course, install the APK. It would have been pointless not to. I did not tweak the plugin settings though. Websites I visit do not recognize that Flash is installed and will not even offer the Flash content. The problem with Dolphin is that many websites do not render correctly. Oracle support, for example does not render or work right with Dolphin. Neither do other elaborate support sites such as the HP server support system. That means that I must keep FF on hand for those.

1) Please make sure that Dolphin Jetpack is enabled in the Settings.
2) Download and install <a>this Flash Player(http://goo.gl/VMivpL) on the right top on this link(http://dolphin.com/lab/en). If you have installed the other Flash Player before, please uninstall it first.
3) Make sure that the flash setting in Dolphin Browser (Click Menu > Settings > Web Content > Flash Player) is on. Follow steps mentioned above and find out whether it works. I get it from their website.
Hey guys. It looks like on my s 21 timobile version I am unable to download any files in Firefox and Chrome. Is there any workaround it? My Sammy also blocked any incoming files when I tried direct wifi transfer - it just didn't allow files to be downloaded to the phone. Surprisingly I was able to download files in stock browser but that is not my preferred browser. Please advise if you know any solutions or workarounds for downloading files in other browsers. Not rooted and prefer not to root. Thank you.
