What browser are you using? Stock? My guess is that it might not recognize the file type and doesn't know how to handle it.
What exactly is the the problem occurring? It is working fine on my Sensation...
I can't download stuff while using Opera but when using stock browser it works perfectly.
I think is just an issue with the browser you sre using rather than an issue with the phone.

I am getting the same problem. No filesonic, megaupload or any other file sharing site works for me. Or rather, I can initialize a download by putting in the codes. Then the download process starts. But instead of the .avi, apk or whatever I am trying to retrieve, it will say it can't download it or I get a .html extention file in it's place. Very annoying. Any ideas?
install androzip..then retry..it should be fine...

Download a app from android market called ' Download them All '. Small program, very useful.

Can't download apps from filesonic. Only from PC. But if you download a apk from mediafire and it comes out as a html, use a file manager to rename the .html to .apk, hope I helped.

I find filesonic gives me issues
Mediafire and Rapidshare work fine to me. Megaupload and several others dont work either, the download just stops after some kb and the phone shows they are finished..

When I try to downlaod from Mediafire on stock browser, I always download some crappy .txt file with wierd writing.. :S every other website works though.
Maybe you have a issue with your provider,a lot of them dont allow connecting to those servers.(torent,share...etc)

You have to use a computer to download from Filesonic. Can't download from mobile phone, it also says it in the .HTML file.

I can't seem to download any files with my nexus s 4g. Usually I attempt to download files from xda either with the app or the site through the browser. I'm always told in downloads and the notification bar that the download was unsuccessful.
Is this due to a setting somewhere? Data profile or the like? Any fix or work around would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Glad you got it to work. I just got the NS4G 2 days ago and on the way home from Best Buy I was trying to download MIUI but kept getting the same error lol
Oh, and if you d/l from browser the file should be in /mnt/sdcard/download
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
yeah, i found it. the first download didnt take.
That's normal. Android doesn't download files that it doesn't know how to open, usually you are able to download a mp3 or a jpg, cause it knows these files. A file manager helps with files that it knows, but if you want to download ANY type, just install "Download All Files", an app from the market...

I use opera and dont have any problem downloading things.
You may also want to try downloading Astro File Manager.
Go into preferences, and toggle Enable Browser Downloads.
Dolphin HD is really good for me so far

what rom are you using and what browser are you downloading it from.. I know the stock one sometimes does this to me, I just switched to Dolphin HD and no problems after (though IMO the stock aosp browser in custom roms is a little faster)

try this! i think i know what your problem is. Go to the market and download astro file manager. Open astro and press the hard menu button on the phone. Select preferences and scroll down until you see "enable browser download" make sure the box is clicked and voila!!! It should allow you to download the file.
Seemed dimplier to download dolphin plus didn't read this till I already flashed theme ;-) :-\

If you still insist on using stock browser, get Download Crutch from the market

Exactly what it says-just acts like an app that tells Android it can run everything so you can download. It doesn't actually do anything.

Download to your computer first, thrn copy it to your internal sd card.
It's just of those things.
I'm planning my escape from the digital world!
The stock phone browser normally fails at downloading zip files - unless there is an app on the phone that associates itself with them. For instance, zArchiver is an app that can handle zip files. Since I have it on my phone, I am able to download zip files with the stock browser. Another option to download on the phone is to use a third party browser like Dolphin.

Hmm you might need to download it from your PC and put it on your SD card.
