Im apologize in advance if this has already be addressed. Is anyone else unable to download certain files on this phone? Idk if its the browser or something that Samsung has done but it sucks. I'm trying to download some apk files from this website and get the message "can't download. Content not supported on this phone. Can anyone help?
Nevermind, I just enabled browser download in astro and downloads work.
Hey guys, i'm looking for a download manager that will allow me to specify a download location when downloading files from my web browser. I'm currently using Miui Browser and/or xScope but its annoying to have to move files to a storage directory every time I download something and the browser only use a default directory for all downloads.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to find a browser that will allow me to download files to my SD card but I'm having no luck finding one. Opera allows downloads, but there is no way to make it download in \sdcard-ext\ it only DLs to the phone memory which is no good for large files.
How can I download files to the \sdcard-ext\ folder?
thx
David
I usually don't bump my own threads but...
Are there any Atrix users out there that know how to download a file via web browser to the removable sdcard?
Dolphin Browser HD
Just set your download directory in settings to the correct path (sdcard-ext instead of sdcard)
Yup Dolphin lets you set the DL dir to anything you want which is great, but I have trouble getting Dolphin to DL from many web sites, specifically ulozto.cz which is a Czech movie file sharing site.
To see what I mean do this:
1. Using Dolphin, go to ulozto.cz
2. Search for "bastardi"
3. click "stahnout" (which means download)
4. type in the 4 letter captcha code to start DL
...the download never starts w/Dolphin. By the way this site does work w/Opera, but Opera can DL to sdcard-ext...
thanks anyway and if you have any more ideas I'd love to hear them...
I'm having this issue myself. When I try downloading a large file after a while I get a error "source could not be found". Smaller files will download sometimes sometimes they wont. Any reason why downloading to a pre installed SD doesn't seem to work? I set up dolphin HD to my extra SD. Seems to work but have yet to download a large file.
This app will let you download whatever you want:

Thanks, I'll try it tonight...
The app "Download All Files" did not work for me. Did you try it on the website I listed above?
I've tried several browsers including the stock one and am yet to find a solution to this problem. It seems that when I download from sites that use a form of redirecting the url, like some file hosting sites that the browser simply downloads a .bin or .html file rather than the apk or whatever file im trying to download.
I've tried dolphin hd, stock browser and firefox with no success. Any ideas?
Cheers!

Thanks but the problem still persists. I should also mention that when clicking these types of links that the page simply seems to stop loading. This only happens on these type of links so I don't think it's a connection issue.
Have the same problem..it must be some solution...
Astro File Manager. Enable the option for Stock browser download. Besides, Opera can download just anything.
Regards.

Nah that didn't work either, I don't think its a problem with file types but rather how the stock browser deals with re-directed urls.
Hi,
Did you try firefox for android?
I had the same problem firefox should sort it out for ya
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
It seems that only solution is to use Opera..with this browser problem is solved..it can download everything..but still stays question how to download files with stock browser?
Yes with Opera it can be downloaded everything..also with Dolphin HD it is impossible to download such files..
I have the IDM app but I cant find a way to force it to take over downloads. I use dolphin browser and every time I download something either the stock download manager or dolphins download manager takes over. Is there a way to make another download manager take over the download?
You could Try copying the download URL and then pasting it into the Downloads Manager and trying that way mate. Or try the download through stock browser to see if IDM kicks in
Hope This Helps

It's a file sharing Site so it doesn't work when I paste the link into my download manager.

maybe the IDM only works when you enter the URL and for everything else like file sharing and stuff wont work since the download itself launches either the stock download manager or browser's, maybe you could try a forcing the download thru IDM via ADB or try freezing stock download manager in TB maybe that could work, also there should be a root download manager that takes over all downloads on the phone.
hope i shed some light
