Cannot download .zip

I am running cyanogeneris 1.1 and can't download .zip to my phone. Am I crazy, or could this be done before? I swear I used to be able to on aloysius 10 I think. Any help would be appreciated. The message in downloads says "Cannot download. The content is not supported on this phone."
Thanks,
Chris
try using the stock browser instead of third party browsers to download the zip file

Dolphin vs stock browser?

I just started using dolphin browser and have found it to be far superior to the stock browser. Is it safe to remove the stock browser? Has anyone here done so with no problem?

Thanks for your help. The stock browser is like 9MB! And soooo lacking features and functions.
Thanks for posting that...I've been asking what was safe on a few different apk's....have you tried removing Google voice....or Google talk?

Is it safe to remove the apk and package file?

Only downside is that HTC's Flash Lite is only integrated in stock browser. Dolphin has an add-on to download flash video , but it is somewhat limited.
You can do a comparison of some of the flash sites from this page :

On 2nd thought I was wrong about this Flash DOES work in Dolphin !

I uninstalled Dolphin Browser HD. But there is still a folder called TunnyBrowser in myfiles. That folder is 6.2mb and contains 25folders and 407 files in it. Is it safe to delete that folder?
I have now switched to Opera
Galaxy S on Froyo JP6
It's safe to delete, I got rid of it.

Stock browser is okay and Dolphin HD had its benefits. But after using Opera for about a month it's unlikely I'll ever be using another browser. Opera is just awesome.

Downloading video or feeds through android browser?

Ok, so I want to download a Android Atlas Weekly Episode through my vibrants Browser.It worked before I flashed to Froyo but now it wont download the mp4 video feed. Fails everytime.looks like its trying to install it as a file instead downloading a video. I'm lost. Tried many things but nothing seems to work. Even tried using the Google Reader App to download and view it.but just pops up a empty web page. If I hold down on the link and click save link it tries to play it right away.but wont play since its a large file/video.just keeps showing its loading! Can anyone please help me out? Thanks a million! Oh yea also tried the BeyondPod Player App too but it says download failed! Here is the link

What Browser

What browser is everyone using? Have you found anything faster than the stock browser?
I use Dolphin. Stock on my Transformer Prime though.

Opera mobile is the best hands down IMHO.

Opera is the smoothest, but I prefer Dolphin HD for the functionality.
I use the stock browser on Scott's CleanROM 2.1 right now. What are the advantages of Dolphin?

Last I knew Firefox can't multi task. Everytime you close it, it starts at your home page.

Dolphin is amazing. The plugins, ease if use, speed, all amazing.
One plugin let's you Swype right to left to access the plugin drawer, and then touch an icon to switch between desktop and mobile view.
Bookmark backup and sync with the stock browser, and across multiple Android devices.
Theme support, regular updates, and lots of plugins that do cool stuff.

Dolphin mini. Unless it's changed, dolphin hd was a little too busy for me. I was always making it swipe to bookmarks menu unintentionally, etc. Dolphin mini is very lightweight and speedy.

you can turn off the swiping settings for dolphin hd.
I use dolphin for full pages and stock for mobile (default browser).
Stock browser mostly. I have Opera Mobile installed. Only ever use Opera Mobile for a secondary Facebook account.. And I'm rarely in it. Opera Mobile always has javascript problems on many websites. Even pc Opera has jsp issues. I have used Dolphin HD. It's very nice but it has very poor memory management. It will consume a ginormous amount of RAM in no time. Don't get me wrong, I like Dolphin, but using over 118mb on a simple image search in Google.. lol. That's ridiculous. I hadn't even gotten around to opening a single image when it started slowing down. Needs a little work. Just my opinion. No gripes..
I like Xscope. It's faster than stock, faster even than Dolphin Mini. It has themes available, doesn't use massive amounts of memory, and just plain works with ease. It's easily in my top 5 best paid apps list.

What browser are you using?

I really dislike the default browser that comes with the s3.
Previous phones I have ran aosp browser and the miui browser. Both were much better imo.
Just curious as to what browser you guys are using and why.
Thanks guys.

Dolphin HD
Give it a try, and you'll see why.
Dolphin HD is fantastic. Chrome in my opinion is ever so slightly more fantastic. I have both installed but Chrome is my default.
Chrome
I'm still using the stock browser for now. I will be however looking into other ones in a few days!
Chrome.
Tab sync FTW. (just wish I could also close tabs on my other devices too).
Just yesterday I was "snooping" on my wife using Chrome on my PC while browsing reddit, and I was checking out the tabs she was opening... 2xychromosome?!
I have tried dolphin browser and I am not too crazy about it. Never tried chrome for android, might give that a go.

Dolphin HD for videos (flash support)

I used to be a big fan of Skyfire but they haven't updated their support for ICS yet. They seemed to also be a bit on the slow side but I stuck with them from their Windows Mobile days (HD2). Now though I use the stock browser and it allows for a desktop mode. Its quick and I have none of the downloading display issues I was having with Skyfire.
UC Browser.
Stock browser. It seems to do everything I need a browser to do on my phone
Firefox beta

Chrome. I just wish i could get the widget to load thumbnails for the previews.
Browser plus
t-mobile sgs3 stock rom/rooted
Chrome .. teh best.
Chrome because I tie it up with my PC
I use chrome as my default and dolphin hd whenever I need to load a page in desktop mode that doesn't work with chrome.
Dolphin HD is what i have refereed on all other devices. Anyone have any reason this phone would be better with a diff browser than I'm used to? Thanks

Chrome if you use the google features. If you don't use Chrome on a PC or doesn't know what it offers, then Chrome isn't really useful for you.
Opera
