Hi people. I can't download Web Tv on my HTC Fuze anymore. I downloaded it once and it work with the zip file. I somehow deleted something from my files and now when i try to download the zip file my phone tells me that..... Ok here it is step by step. Im cliking on the Web tv zip file and it promps me to save or save as. I piked save as and saved it on my Personal Folder. When i hit save it tells me that,''This file already exist and if i want to replace it. I hit yes replace my file. After it shows that its loading to my phone. When done a nother window pops out telling me that,'' The central directory was not found in the archive (or you were trying to open a disk other then the last disk of a multi-disk archive.) Plz help
is there a way i can set the browser as the default app required when opening certain types of files such as shockwave (swf)? i have some shockwave files that id like to view .on my evo without requiring me to go out to the internet and download the file manually everytime.
right now i have the files on my sdcard. when i try to open them, i get prompted to choose what type of file it is and then what to use to open the file.
i can view these files with my browser over the internet using flash lite.
i suppose i could run an http server on the phone itself, but there arent any good choices on the market. too bad i cant install apache.
thanks.

I received an email yesterday with a Zip file attached, the GMail client wouldn't let me download & stated that there was no viewer to View it.
I have File Expert installed which will open & decompress zip files (over and above any native OS support for zips) but this is not offered as a choice.
I would have thought that there should be an option to download the file even if there is no way of opening it, is there a configuration somewhere ?
Kind of essential, I get a lot of zipped files in emails.

Search the market for "Download All Files" from HwkRbbt Software. It works great and allows saving of EVERYTHING.

Thanks, I'll give that a go.
try androzip from the market, unzips anything, and is a brilliant file manager as well
I am having trouble with this as well. My zip files show up in GMail with a 'INFO' box that when I tap onto it prompts me with a window saying that there is no application found to view it.
I have tried a few file managers already, including ASTRO (Which I own) plus the suggestions above. I take this for granted on my Droid X already...Any ideas?
I've had the same issue on both my phones and my tablet. No file manager or download manager has ever helped, including down droid, download all files, and ASTRO file manager, any other ideas? Thanks, sharf

I'm using the browser and trying to download a word file (.docx) and it keeps coming up as .bin. I try to open it but its just nothing. Downloaded Dolphin Browser and the same thing happens, how do I download files with this phone? I cannot use an app for this email account because its for school and its disabled.
Works fine on the computer.
Thanks!
Hello everyone
So I've been using Xscope and boat browsers. When I click on a download link, it would show a download dialog, in which I confirm to download the file. However, I just installed FasterDownloads, a download manager for android, and now when I click on a download link, the download dialog would pop up with the option to "open" the file, or to "download" the file. When I choose "download", the native browser download manager would dl the file. When I choose to "open" the file, Fasterdownloads would open and download the file. However, this only happens when I click on .pdf file link. When I tried other formats such as .zip, it doesn't give me the option to "Open" the file. (in other words, the only option is to download the file with the browser's native download manager)
So my questions are:
1) How do i make it so that there would be an "open" option for other file extensions such as .zip?
2) What is Fasterdownloads doing that the browsers wil give such an "open" option? Is there any other way that I can set other programs to "open" the download? For example, maybe I can get an PDF program to "open" a pdf file when I click on a pdf link.
thank you
