Try using opera mobile for the times you need to download from those sites.

Why would it not work in any browser? Is your network connection ok?

the android browser has issues with rapidshare and the other file download sites.
as craigster said, if you really need to download from one of them, best to copy the link into opera, dolphin, or firefox.

I use Opera Mini!

How to download?
Go google and type "How to download from RapidShare"
I cant believe people asking such questions!
if you mean downloading a file from rapidshare thru a pc then do exactly what the guy above of me said but if on the other hand you mean thru opera from our mobile phone then yea i kinda noticed a problem regarding this.. when i download a file from rapidshare by opera i always get like a one kilobit file no matter how many times i tried or no matter what the file i was tryinng to download was..
Moved to Q & A because this is a general question.

True! You could mess up your device if you have little computer experience/know-how.

guys
i think he wants to know about downloading from rapidshare thru Pocket PC not PC
More info please....
OP,
Can you please tell me what file you are in need of as I may have it on a separate and VERY user friendly Drop Box account. Have tested it with all major browsers and even several major Mobile browsers and all work fine!
downloading from rapidshare on a PPC is exactly like downloading from a PC... which i did several times.

unable to download files on browser?

I have never been able to download files from posts here with regular browser. It starts download then fails. All roms have the same problem....must be the browser. I have to run either opera or xscope anytime I want to download a posted file here. Hosted files from links here work fine, but posted files fail. What am I missing here?
Thanks
I have the same issue with the stock browser on TnT Lite 3.10. I will try those other browsers you mentioned.

[Q] Content not supported on Galaxy Tab???

I am trying to figure out how to install reader's hub ( i have asked several questions, but I can't get anyone to help me). I have a US Sprint Tab. Each time I try to download the files, they download unsucessfully, and give me the error message "content not supported". This seems to only be true for rar files, as I have downloaded the readers hub zip file just fine. I currently have apk installer, Explorer, and Andro zip installed. Can someone please help me???
Hi,
As far as im aware even though androzip supports the rar files, it does not associate itself with the samsung tab explorers launcher for that file type.
If you extract this in the androzip itself and then browse to the contents you extracted that should work that way.
Wish you luck, let us know how you get on

Thanks for your reply. I would love to try thatm, but the tab wont even let me download the file. The thing is, I already have the files I need to get the readers hub, but I can't get it to install. Well, I can install the press Display and the Kobo, but the readers hub wont install. And although the Press Display and Kobo say they are installed, I don't see them anywhere on my tab.
Ahh OK, sorry to have misread the problem ...Have you access to a PC? as you could download and send. ...if not link me up ill download and make it a zip for you (my racing team dr-ukr has a server i can upload to for storage).
Alternatively try another browser, i've not yet tried the others but mayb it's jsut the Samsung modded browser that cannot support the download?
Ill post back if i get to test that first in Dolphin HD/Opera/Fennec beta etc..

Do I have to root my tab in order to install readers hub? Now I'm reading the rooting app has been removed, so rooting may not be possible.
Sorry i do not know about rooting, i am still on stock firmware and not wanting to blow my warranty yet. (allthough it will happen in the end) ... i have my nokia n900 for all the playing about for now (i'm confident with it and the tab is my first android).
Wish you luck and pretty sure the others here will help out

I was having the same problem. I tried opera browser and it let me download the files. The stock browser is junk.
Go to market and download "Download all Files", works perfect on GT.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App

Just use dolphin browser. I use it to download a variety of files from a variety of sites.
firefox's new phone browser works great. also make sure you have an application like ES file manger or Astro to apply the .apk or files.
Or, as what solved the problem for me(still using the stock browser), in Astro file manager's preferences, tick the enable browser download. Im sure these other ways worked, but if you already have astro you wont have to download any new files.
I used to use Dolphin Browser just to download things from the internet.
Now I use xScope 6 to download and as my main browser as well.

Browser fail to download file (try it and give feedback please)

Ok so i have been trying to download this file ( http://powshare.com/t2/Hardwell-On-...-25.01.2013-www.edmtunes.com.mp3#.URN_zB02Yy4 ). Its a set from hardwell, nothing illegal. Tried stock browser, chrome, opera, dolphin, boat and lightning browsers. All fail to download the file. The only one that could successfully download this file was firefox. This happens to me with some mirror sites like mediafire (i can actually download from mediafire, but i cant remember more to give as an example).
Why is firefox the only one able to download this file? Since firefox can download the file, it is not a problem with my Nexus s right?
I am using hellybean rom (based on cm 4.1.2)
