Best Downloader for Android? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

whats the best app to download files to your phone? i tried some that dont work at all. please suggest some.

Download Blazer works well for me. On most download managers you have to share the link with the app, which doesn't work on 99% of file hosts, not the case with Download Blazer.

[Q] Downloading files via browser

Is there any way to download any file with any extension? For some reason I'm not able to download any .rar files or other weird extensions. I remember astro allowing you to download anything you want when I had my g1, but no luck getting it to work on this phone. Any suggestions or ideas?

Get astro, then open it and go to settings and make sure t has enabled browser download

Yup that worked for me. Thanks guys.

Downloading attatched files on forums straight to phone

When I had my cappy I could download apk and zip files and stuff that people posted on the forums while browsing on my phone. I can't do that anymore. It just keeps saying download unsuccessful. It is kind of a paint to see something I want then have to go to the computer. Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to change something in the settings? Thanks for any input.

Do you have a folder in the internel sdcard named DOWNLOAD ?
If not create it and try downloading again. (using default browser).
You should be able to download anything off of internet.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck!
Try downloading "download all files" from the market, it allows the stock browser to download any file type

I checked for the download folder and it was there. I downloaded that app from the market and that did the trick. I am not sure why I never had to do that on my captivate. Maybe it was the rom I was running. Thanks for the help, guys.

I have the same problems with downloads being unsuccessful with the stock browser. But on all other browsers our seems to work fine. I just copy paste the link into a different browser if I want to download something. Dolphin and opera both work fine.

[Q] Gmail.apk attachments

guys need a quick feed back, i've installed the stock gmail.apk onto my device, but i can't find out how i can save the .zip attachments that someone have sent to me ... i've tried several times w/o no luck, i've also tried download all files but seems that isnt working ... any tip?
IIRC, you can't download attachments with gmail. Try something else, like K9 or K10!
Install the app download all files or similar. Many in the market. Or use the gmail mobile website...

Download all files doesnt run. Any other? Have you tried something?

Any luck yet ?
I have tried searching on Internet but seems there isn't really a solution yet. A lot of people recommend Download All Files, Blackmoon etc... but the real issue here is that from Gmail 2.3.5 onwards, there is NOT even a Preview button for the .zip attachment so non of those apps will work.
I would appreciate if there is any other working methods besides a third party email client.
Thanks.
