You have to paste this file in system/etc if you are using ad-away and then enable blocking from the app

[Q] Files Download In .htm Format instead of .zip

When I download .zip files through different websites, they download as .htm files instead. I am not sure if this is a settings issues. Is there anyway I can get the browser to download in the .zip format?
Nope, it's something I have had since my first android phone. Changing user agents doesn't fix it either. You mean file-hosting sites right? Because it aaaaalwaaaays happens at those damn sites
The file browser is not responsible for the actual format of the file that is downloaded, but it is possible that it's misinterpreting the file due to how it is sent from the web server.
When this happens, have you tried renaming the file from .htm to .zip?
I just tried it and it said something like no program to open to file. Yes it's from file hosting sites.

Typical problem with file hosting sites even on Windows file sent as html .

Go to market and get "download all files", works like a charm.

Opera mini doesn't support flash.
For me the built in browser suffices.

Why not downloaded a flashable zip thats already present with meta info, and just add and delete what you want or don't want. 7Zip is amazing working this way.
Then you are sure to know it works.
Its my own Rom and im working with root Explorer to customize it
Sent from my SK17i using xda app-developers app
Yeah, extract that zip file, add or remove app as you want, then zip it again.

Ok thanks for your helps will soon release my Rom

Use ES file explorer to open the file location and use an app like android to extract the apk. Then use a file editor like jota text editor to edit ur apk. Recompile the files using android again. Hope it helps.
Hit thanks if I have helped you in any ways.

You shouldn't modify apk in the phone because you can end up with force closes.
On PC of course.
Thanks buddy

Reflash or put the hosts files again where they belong.
