Try using the File Manager app and find the download, press and hold the 'HTML' file and rename the ending to 'APK'. Should work.
Hope it helps, I had the same problem.

[Q] Cyanogenmod 7 - Browser.apk

Hi,
can someone please upload the browser.apk from the cyanogenmod 7 for galaxy tab for me?
I do not know how to extract it as the package does not contain a extractable zip file (only a .ext4)
i attach.
in order to extract apps, in unix systems, download the CM7.zip, extract your contents on the desktop and execute "sudo -o loop factoryfs.ext4 factoryfs" (previously, create the factoryfs dir on desktop)...
Wow, thanks a lot!
Is there a way to extract it within Win7?
btw: too bad the browser does not work I got a parse-error when installing. if I put it directly into /system/app the browser does not show up in the app drawer

possibly it requires a sdk version 9
for test purposes, try to change "ro.build.version.sdk=8" in your /system/build.prop
to "ro.build.version.sdk=9"
try "daemos tools" in order to mount iso in win7 or install ubuntu from a live-cd
Or you could just use winrar to extract it.

would the cyanogenmod 6 browser work on the tab? I prefer it over the stock browser.
Use winimage

tested?
has anyone go this to work?
I've tried it too, the CM7 Browser is so much better than the stock one, does anyone know the name, or any way that this would work on 2.3.3 (Overcome)
Would be totally awesome
What is the difference of cyanogen 7 browser and stock browser?

[Q] Unable to download .apk files

When ever i try to download .apk files through the stock android browser (tried on a rooted evo and rooted charge) it tells me download is unsuccessful and wont let me download the file Is this an android limitation or is there a work around for this? (Besides using another browser )
I think you need a file viewer, try downloading es file explorer first, then redownload the file.

You can download "download all files" (or something like that) from the android market...it should allow you to download...all...files from the browser

+1. I installed 'Download All Files' so that I could get attachments out of the Gmail app.
Other option is using Astro file manager. Under preferences there's a check box for enabling browser downloads.

Dowload dolphin browser HD. That will allow you to download any type of file and it is an awesome browser to use.
Astro File Manager
Install Astro File Manager from the market. Go to preferences and check the box for "Enable Browser Downloads"
Wow thanks guys.

There is an app in the market that will allow you to donwload almost any type of file-it's called Download All Files. I don't like the Astro file manager so I installed this one insted and it worked fine.

[Q]AsusReader.apk fails to install [Solved]

UPDATE: I was able to install the .apk by copying it to /system/app/ no fuss no muss. Once there it was ready to run without as much as a reboot required. Thanks to baseballfanz for the solution.
I am running gnufabio's Revolver 4.0.3 RC3 and downloaded the removed apps zip. I am trying to install the AsusReader.apk (MyLibrary), when I used my TF101 stock I liked this app for PDF viewing much better than Polaris Office.
When I try and install it says installation failed, do I need to flash this via recovery (a la gapps)?
(I would have posted this in the ROM thread, but I don't have a high enough post count to post in there yet.)
I've never run into this error otherwise, try flashing via cwm, I think that's what was intended being a 'system' app.
If there's a cwm flashable file try that, if not try manually moving it to system/app instead of installing it like a regular apk
Did you find a solution for this? I really liked the MyLibrary app, I have tried installing as a zip, manually putting in the zip folder etc. There seems to be a few of the Asus apps that won't install. Alternatively does anyone know of a good app that organises PDFs in a similar way to MyLibrary?
I haven't tried flashing via cwm yet, I need to get to my laptop so I can yank the stuff I don't want out of the zip.

[edit]I just thought about what baseballfanz said and decided to give that a try. I used Root Explorer and moved the apk to /system/app and it was in my app list, no reboot needed.[/edit]
I tried moving the apk into the app folder but it didnt work. Are you using the apk from the revolver main post?
Yes, extract the apk and use a file explorer with root access. I used Root Explorer, find the extracted apk and long press on it select copy or move. Then navigate to /system/app and then touch paste.

I tried the exact same thing about 10 times and eventually it worked by renaming the APK to MyLibrary.apk. Very odd!
It's definitely the best app for displaying groups of PDF in a library view that I've found
Thanks for your help
Glad you got it all sorted MrMuz.
I just went and double checked mine and it is still AsusReader.apk
AsusReader on Lenco TAB-9701
Hello MacFett,
I have tried to install the AsusReader.apk as both AsusReader.apk and MyLibrary.apk in the system/app folder, but it does not seem to work.
The icon shows up but when I tap it I get a message that the application has stopped (after 2-5 seconds). I'm using a Lenco TAB-9701 tablet.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I really like this app (I've used it on other tablets) and would very much like to get it working.
Furthermore, does anyone have information on how to root the 9701?
Thanks in advance for your help.
It maybe that it is fc'ing because these Asus stock apps for the transformer.

Asus Mynet app

Hi there. I try to install Asus Mynet app on another tablet (Nexus 7) but copying .apk and .odex files did not do the job. Is there another way to install? Thank you.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T
It's possible that it only works on ASUS firmware. As each stock ROM is different from device to device.
Also, It could be that asus uses some sort of app framework. If they do, then you probably need to install it.

You won't be able to copy the .odex file to the nexus 7 as the frameworks are different. You need to use the DEODEX version of mynet and copy that.
Either find a version of the ASUS Apps or download CROMI from my sig and extract it from there.

I just tried downloading your link to the MyNet.apk file and it downloaded fine but when I click on the file to install it it fails.
Any suggestions.

You can't install it like a normal apk as it will be signedprotected (?) differently.
You can insert it into your systm/app folder and change the permissions to the same as other system apps using root explorer or es file explorer - it might work that way. Remember to reboot after.

Nope, tried that and it still doesn't work. BTW - the permissions were already the same as other apps.
Thanks for the idea though...
