Download Unsuccessful
In order for me to flash files via CWM, I have to download from my computer and then transfer the file to my phone. Does any one know why this is occurring? I've tried restarting phone, turning on wifi, clearing download manager cache/data, turning off/on data, nothing seems to work!

What browser are you using?

That's happened to me before and I think all I did to fix it was reflash the ROM.

I use an app called Download All Files in the Market to fix any issues downloading files using the stock browser.

I have a great solution to your download problem and you probaly have it installed on your desktop. Try using mozilla firefox from the market to download your file. I had the same problem.

+1 on this. If you are using the stock browser, it cannot download most file types. If you don't want to switch to Dolphin HD or Opera, just grab Download All Files from the Market.

Astro File Manager has an option to enable all browser downloads as well.

App market won't download apps

When I try to download apps it says it was unsuccessful. Regardless of whether it is wi-fi or 3g. First time I've had this problem. Any suggestions?

Try clearing your cache and deleting the .android_secure folder on your sdcard. Might also use a file manager like EStrong's to go into your download folder and delete any download-file.apk files and then reboot, that usually works for me.
Thanks for the info. I tried it but it's still not working. Any other ideas?

Is it possible you deleted the Google Talk app, without downloads never complete.
No, its still there. I already pursued that avenue. I'm totally stumped this one.

Ok....for some reason unknown to me, it started working again.

It's the Market's cache. A lot of Android users had this problem. Clear the Market's cache, reboot and you're all fine.

Youtube & market problem after factory reset

How many different places you have to post this?
i thought that i posted it in the wrong section.
excuse me because i'm asking help for something
Hi dont worry just flash gapps package .....google it and you should see a zip file call Gapps which contains all that you require,just flash as normal through clockwork mod by choosing install zip
But i use stock android and want to keep it that way.
Do i have to do the same?

Open a file manager (I know it works with ES File Explorer & and it doesn't work in Astro) and go to system/apps and find the youtube apk and reinstall it. Once you reboot your phone you will now see the youtube app in your apps drawer. This same method will also work for other apps that are showing as being installed that aren't showing up.
Yes. Works for me. I used root explorer. Thank you!

[Q] Is Your Browser Buggy And Not Allowing You To Download Files????

Every time i try to download something within the browser whether if its Dolphin or stock browser my download stops and looks for connection and most likely quits. Another thing it does is it downloads the format in the incorrect format or it tries to start and just becomes unsuccessful. What do you guys think?
Nothing like that here.

Try downloading Astro File Manager. Go into the menu and enable browser downloads then try again.
I can't download files from a forum unless I use dolphin browser. Stock browser gives me a "download unsuccessful" error, dolphin works fine though.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!! Cannot finish download there is not enough space

Whenever I download anything from stock browser it shows error "Cannot finish download there is not enough space".Empty space on phone is 50MB and on card is 1.5GB. I am using Cincinnati Bell update.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!
If you're downloading from your phone then most files are stored on internal. If you download to your PC first you can direct/place the download on your SD. Go into applications and move some apps to SD to free your internal. Just remember that some apps might not operate well on SD so be careful what you move.

I am not talking about apps. Even a pdf file of less than 100kb shows the same error.
Thing you can do.
1. Reflash Cincinnati bell update make sure you whipe all data.
2. Try a different rom.

What ever browser you download their settings to set to default browser.
If you have to just delete browser.
Market has system app removers.

I uninstalled stock browser as well as download manager.
I downloaded third party download manager.
I am using Dolphin browser so how to change default download manager of dolphin?
I found the issue myself upon a factory reset of my EVO 3D. The issue is the location of where Dolphin is trying to download to. You have to use root explorer or a file-browsing program and find somewhere valid to save to, mine was /mnt/sdcard/. In Dolphin there's a setting to change this (Settings -> Data Storage Settings -> Download Directory).

Download unsuccessful

After installing VB, I am unable to download any pdf or excel files, etc. it just tells me download unsuccessful. I tried clearing data to no avail. Any thoughts?

Try a different browser from the market. I had a similar issue downloading zip files on the stock browser.

This is the first app I install on my phones. I never trust the default browser app. Glad you found Dolphin HD.
