Just type the link in your browser and it will start downloading
At me he will put the downloaded files in "/sdcard/download".

Just use the standard browser, although I think most browsers will do the same.
If your browser doesn't do it you might should try opera.

You can copy the URL that you got from the .mp4 in the adress bar from the browser.
So you open your browser and where you normally typ in the website for example "www.xda-developers.com" you type your URL from the .mp4

Android-How to direct download a file

Hello,
i am using APP Inventor, but it put my question as general from Android.
How can i directly download a file from WEB without the browser try to open it.
I i put a url like: privatesite.blablabla/image.jpg
he will put the image in the browser, because browser can load the file and show it on screen, but i want to download it without reading it.
I need that to put inside App inventor, but if it's possible to do it in HTML or other, that's ok, i think i can make app inventor run an external application.
Thank a lot

Have you tried other browsers for example opera mobile?

Well, you can do it programmatically, so maybe an app can do this, with a page in which you just put the url and it gives you the possibility to retrieve the file in your filesystem.

You might find a good way to solve it using cURL, which also has been ported to Android.

Dropbox and Google Drive downloads to device corrupts the file??

I've been having an issue with both Google Drive and Dropbox.
I have all my roms, odin restore things, apk files, custom ringtones all stored in Google Drive, previously in Dropbox (I didn't like having to re-login each time I restored the app and data when I installed a new rom). I also store the actually folders themselves on my Galaxy Nexus and Galaxy Tab 10.1, both on 4.0.4.
But my issue is that, whenever I download a file (.apk and .epub are the ones I tried because I was trying to install an app and add an ebook to the nook app.) it doesn't download correctly or something, because my .apks all say "Parsing error" and the Nook app tells me it can't open my ebooks even though, I can open both on my computer (Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-bit, service pack 1). This happens on both my Galaxy Nexus and Tab, on both dropbox and Google Drive. Both Google Drive and Dropbox say they have synced the files correctly.
I realized it was Google Drive and Dropbox, because when I transferred the files directly from my computer to the each device, they worked. The app installed, and the ebook opened, which I was very happy about.
So, I am just wondering if anyone can replicate the issue, fix it, or tell me what I'm doing wrong.
I think it encrypts the file when it downloads so its not a .mobile or whatever file anymore and cannot be opened by the default program.

Well I was trying to use root explorer to put the apks in system/app and the epubs in the Nook/my documents folder.
Seems like it has to be something with your phone. I move .apks and other files back and fourth through dropbox all the time without issue.

Yeah, possibly something with ICS.

Not a problem with ICS.
I can transfer files with Dropbox and Drive with no problems.
Have you tried using ES File Explorer's Dropbox and Google Drive integration?

I can transfer files fine, but no, I have not used ES file Explorer drive and dropbox intergration. I've used ES file explorer before, but I really don't like the way it looks.
Try Solid Explorer Beta in Play Store. It has Dropbox and Box integration which works really well, and it looks great.

Yeah, I've used that one before also! I didn't use the Drive and Dropbox intergration though.
I haven't been having any issues anymore,
I found that instead of putting it into offline mode, just download like you are going to install it, and when it fails (because its a system app), go to the /data/app location and it is a usable apk instead of one that say parsing error or cannot be installed.
So the first guy was probably right about the encryption when its in offline mode.
Thanks everyone!
so i try to upload an *.apk to drive, but when i download i hit install but nothing.....

What do you mean by nothing? Does it just fail to install, or sit there for quite some time?
just fail

Just to back this up, I was having the same exact problem. Was using "Make Available Offline" in Google Drive and the file would fail md5 check every time.
Just clicked to "open" the file instead, chose Astro to open the file, and then copy/paste it to the sdcard directory for flashing. All good, md5 passed. I guess there's a level of encryption going on.
For anyone wondering about this still (there are a lot), use Google Drive Download.

Cuts all the BS out of trying to get easy local access to your Google Drive files.

Ways to install an application on my phone...

Hello, and thanks for entering!
For certain problems with my phone I have no way to install an apk since I have no file browser, or wifi, or bluetooth, etc.
Now, is there any way to install an application alternately?
Thanks in advance!
Install using adb
Try downloading the app on your pc and install it using adb.

Of course, the main problem I have is that neither does the USB detect me ... Am I ruined?
If you have a browser installed, you probably don't need a file browser, just download an apk from any website, and open it from the downloading list in the browser. you may start with a file manager.

As I said: I don't have Wi-Fi or a way to communicate with the internet. The only thing that works for me is the sd, it reads it but I have no way to open the apk it contains ...
