When i try to download files from rapidshare or zshare etc.. the counting clock never goes down to zero. It just sits at the same number the whole time. I have everything enabled and it stills gives me trouble. Its annoying when i am not around a PC and i come to xda to download stuff and im crippled until im at my PC again. Any suggestions Devs?
Not run into this issue before, have you even been able to Download to /sdcard on the G1 (never tried it)
additionally what ROM are you running??
Ya I have similer probs sometimes. Rapidshare doesn't like to show up for me at all. Zshare and others sometimes have that no counting count down. Thew way I fix that is hit back then click on link again. Sometimes it takes 2 or 3 tries but always gets it, annoying yes, but works...
Now to get uploads working (besides email, that's easy)

Ive always been able to download to the sdcard any file i want using download crutch. Its just when i get to those countdown download sites, the countdown number remains the same.
Ive had this problem since jf rc33, i am currently running haykuro 6.0 rom
Someone told me to turn on javascript but it has always been on. Not sure wat 2 do next. Is your browser over refreshing also? like you hit home key, then go to like messaging to fire off an sms, go back to browser and the whole effing browser page is reloading again?

Not really nitcied it over reloading,,,, ill have a bash at it tonight when i get in from work and see what i see, on a side note when ou go into the browser again does pressing 'back' take you back to the last page you viewed? i can imaging the browzer shortcut on the home screen simply launches it a fresh so that might be the problem

Yeah it does take me back to the page before it, but i have to wait for it to refresh. Maybe holding down the home key and using the built in task switcher? Is that how you flip through your apps? As opposed to clicking the desktop icons?

I usually use the task switcher but usually messages come to me so i drag the notification bar down and it always keeps the browzer page/app im working on
Ok
ill start using the task switcher and see if its still happens
thanks alot ! ill repost with results
For the count down, when I hit back it goes to previous page, then click link again, not foward. Sometimes it will do nothing and do it again and it works. Sometimes I get 2 or 3 secs counting then stops, has to do it again, lol.
For uploads, yes its disabled, but there is a work around. Go to linda file mgr. Long press the file u want, select send to, then gmail (email doesn't work for some reason, has to be gmail). It will automatically bring u to a new email with the file attached ready to send. I've tested this with all types of files, test up to 7mb so far.
Wow!
Thanks for the tip ! I was in need of that attachment workaround. I remember i tried to send a few attachment emails through gmail on the phone and they all got stuck in the outbox. With a zip file though

Ya I've sent .apk .zip .mp3 mp4, they all work. When I was on jf rc33 my gmail app didn't work at all, all got stuck in outbox. Since 1.5 I've had no probs. Now I have backrounf serevices and all syncs turned off to save battery. So after I send it, I got to gmail app, go into outbox and hit refresh and it forces a sync, and volia sent.
I'm bout to send update.zip (45 mb) to my friend and see if that large of a file goes though.
And when I say all got stuck on rc 33 I mean even norm email no att, my gmail app on rc33 always said no connection. But that's like complaing about the graphics of my nintendo, with a ps3 sitting next to me, old news who cares, lol.
And sorry would just edit my previous post, but for some reason can't edit post from phone, lol
The download timers always countdown on my phone, but I have noticed more frequently I have a problem where it'll start downloading something with the actual download file name but instead of the actual size of the file, it will be something really small like 7kbs or 26kbs etc. Anyone else have this problem. Again its completely random sometime happened on files that I eventually was able to download correctly, but not so lucky on some files.

Yeah let me know how that works out because 45mb is pretty big and its a zip, if that goes through then im figuring nothing is impossible. The way i used to send files was use droid ftp to send files to my ftp server and send the link 2 the receiver
I have always installed Linda File manager and that helps to handle unknown file types. Just d/l'd the Haykuro addons for JF1.5 a few hours ago on the phone. Some of the file sites did not start the d/l, but i think finally z-share let me d/l it no problem...
EDIT: that file is almost 50MB, so you should have no issue. i believe i have done even larger, but dont recall what it was atm...

Exactly... until a couple hours ago when i finally got hykuros 6.0r1 to work on my G1.
Even tho i knew i had a pvt board i was still sweating like hell when doing the spl and the update to 6.0 lol... i made it though... brick free. Im glad you did 2.... i have tried using setcputo make the g1 operate faster but i dont think its working because for one i dont see a option that says haykuro 1.5 nor does it show up in task manager or processes when i set the cpu clock. Have you used set cpu ?
When I try to use a rapidshare link the page never loads up on my browser. I noticed it happens with megaupload too.

Log out of Twitter in the 'Data Settings' page in phone settings and it will remove all tweets, you can then resync your phone to Twitter and it'll get the ones of people you're following...

AH, log out and back in.
twitter tab - menu - settings - tap the top section(account settings) it will clear the cache when you log out, when you log back in it will refresh.
Oh, hang on, maybe it wont..... lol, pretty sure i tried that before and it worked, but just tried now and it didnt......
\Application Data\HTC\Twitter contains photo, you can clear it, it'll sync back
\Temp\TwiEng contains all the post in database. I usually delete it out every few days
make sure you turn off sense first because if Twitter tab is running, it'll lock the file in Temp and you cannot delete it (not sure if you log off, it'll still lock those file or not).
Your right, if you log out and log back in all the tweets are still there. I have considered creating another twitter account to see if switching accounts clears the cache. I also dont think it clears any old tweets automatically so this is an ever growing problem, the longer the device is used without a hard reset the more it will fill and the more lag there will be.
Im not technically minded to suggest anything else, i have tried to find the cache file in explorer but failed.
Can Any of you very clever people out there help on this one?
(yet another poorly tested buggy part of the HD2 .... but hey means we will never get bored )
I went into Data services in the main phone settings tab and turned it off using the toggle. It said it will clear all tweets. I logged back in using the toggle and signed in and had to get them down fresh...

Your right thats what it says, but i dont think thats what its doing. When I do exactly that it does appear to clear them but if you check after its reloaded the tweets, all the tweets are there going right back to your last hard reset (in my case 29th Jan) I have twitter set to download just the last 50 tweets but there are hundreds between the 29th and today.
I have also tried loggong into a fresh twitter account with no tweets, but when I log back into my main one they are still all there. This must be down to a cache file not being cleared properly, question is... where is the little blighter????????

Setting tab -> Menu -> All Setting -> Today -> Items tab -> uncheck HTC Sense then OK out 2 times. Delete file, and then follow same step to check HTC Sense then OK out all the way.

Hi guys,
I've been trying to download some files from the sites listed above, with extensions such as .rmvb .rar etc When the download starts, I get the message that the file format is not supported. Any ideas how to make the browser ignore what files im downloading and just download them without problems?
Thanks
If you install either linda or astro off the market, then it should allow to download any file type.
thing is i have astro installed, but the problem still occurs. I will give linda a try thanks for the tip
I don't know then. I remember downloading a few .rar's a while back but I can't recall which one I had installed, and it was on my G1 (don't know how that would make a difference).
just installed linda and same problem.
"Cannot download. The content is not supported on this phone."
its a .rar im trying to download.
In linda, there's an option to activate the download functionality. Check the download plugin On (toggle it back and forth just to be sure). See if that helps.
thanks guys managed to find the problem. I enabled those options and it wasnt working so i figured to try a reset, which then worked. BUT due to 3G not being terribly fast, my downloads seem to disconnect or get interupted mid way. Does the screen blacking out, cause the download to disconnect by any chance or would it run in the background fine?
Im not using Wifi, so the wifi timeout wont affect it. Are there any other options that I could try?
THanks
I also had this problem, but downloading Dolphin Browser seemed to resolve it. That, and ASTRO.

Same here... and you can FC the browser even, and it will keep d/l since the d/l app is seperate from the browser/market/et al.

anybody have the Qik for HTC EVO 4G apk for the evo, the one with the blue icon and it has video chat??? its not in the market anymore...
I was able to download it when it was first posted, how can I get the all file from the phone so I can upload it?
copy it from your data/app folder using root explorer
I was able to download it when they had it published, but they unpublished it because their systems were overloaded with the overwhelming demand for using their service when the Evo first came out. I'd personally wait for them to publish it back to the market. Your performance is going to be spotty otherwise.
View attachment com.qikffc.android.apk
Here is the apk for the Qik for HTC EVO 4G make sure that after you install you reboot the phone either by turning it off and on or removing the battery. Once you reboot the phone the icon will be blue.
Edit: Newfile uploaded, previous file just let you record.
Installed the apk, powered down, removed battery, powered up, but I still have the orange icon.

The problem is that after the blue icon update qik released another update with a Orange icon. This update only allows you to go live but people must go to their website to see you it doesnt allow video chat. The other apk that I uploaded is the version with video chat and blue icon.

Here ya go guys! I uploaded it to 2 places
RapidShare: http://bit.ly/cBkxgf
Google Docs: http://bit.ly/9fdKIZ
I'm having trouble verifying my phone number. Whats wrong. I never seem to get the Text Message.
Btw if any of you guys want to follow me on Qik, I do random videos of Puerto Rico. Like rate restaurants and local points of interest.
Heres the link: http://qik.com/gsoulpr
Just email support and they will help you activate it...that's what I did.
yeah, it looks like Qik servers must still be turned off, because even though the app appears to be the proper one, nothing happens when you try to have a video chat..you cant even send a video email at this point..
plus, I never get the text message "verification" either..
Its like they just turned the whole app off or something..
If you haven't verified it's why you can't use the app. Send support small email with your username and phone number and they will help you activate the phone. I have held several video chats so I can confirm it works.
how long does it take them to respond?
did you use [email protected]?
thanks!
That's where I emailed the and the response was real fast.
ok, I sent them emails for both my wife and myself; lets see if they respond..
thanks!
Ok, so this was announced earlier today and I saw it and thought "meh". I had a browse about and still thought "meh", but then I discovered the fact that I can install apps on my phone directly from the browser.
When I first tried it, it didn't work, but every other app after that was installing on my phone within seconds of my clicking the install button. So basically, I can install apps on my phone from any internet ready computer.
Thanks Google. You just made something sweet a little sweeter!
Enjoy, my friends

make sure you setup your gmail account on the phone and access the market then exit, then it will work. I had the same issue until I did that, cause the FAQ says that will happen if you havent visited market recently.
Now this is cool, utterly great find, no more market on the phone.
BTW, you dont have to access market with https, you can access the same page without the cert error using http.

Check under My market account and then go to the tab "settings" see if your phone appears there, make model carrier. cause both my HD2's show up, there. also on that same screen on the top right there is a link "dont see your device" might be of help to your situation.

I can't get apps to download to my device. When in my PC browser, I am logged into market, can see my device in the pull down menu and it says it will be installed onto my device shortly, but nothing happens. I tried rebooting, logging out of Talk and back in, downloading the app directly from the market android app (which works, but doesn't solve the app delivery via browser), and also trying downloading from my android browser. No luck. Anyone have any ideas?
EDIT: Nevermind. Flashed pongster's latest Ginger Rom and all is good.
I will be uploading my rom very shortly. I believe this is the right section, I am not a dev yet....but the devs have said that ICS can't synch facebook from what I have heard and that it requires Haxsynch to work.
I don't have my contacts setup perfectly at the moment so I haven't got it to synch contacts properply, but so far it has synched something, it has synched all Calendar from facebook and messages and it is opperating the facebook interface within Android like on any other samsung phone
Can someone tell me a decent screen capture app for SGS running Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.3 RC 3.0?
I also have all SNS accounts work, Twitter, Alternate email and even Server
Will be testing and adding up results soon. It's late here in Australia and I am preparing my ROM of ICS to be ready for Uploading here.
Thanks,
James
Interesting... You used romanbb's fix?
Btw ICS comes with screenshot capability iirc?

I am sort of new here:
Here is the details of my ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21463927#post21463927
Do you have to be an approved dev to a ROM in this section?
I have my thread up in general thats all
just a quick add to bump this cause I know I am very close now. Has anyone been able to get this to work? I have actually got full facebook profiles showing up in my contacts list along with all the details, phone numbers emails etc, the last thing remaining is the picture? anyone further ahead than this?
Facebook sync is working. Didn't realise that I had it going all along? All that was wrong was the permissions on the init.d script? You would think that the "fix permissions" command would actually work however it does not. I used Android Commander to change it cause it was blatantly obvious that it was wrong when the file icon looks different. Will have to give big thanks to the dev of android commander just for this alone

Are you serious? I think I pulled those links to my first revision of the ROM. I havent even uploaded the fix for the sync issues yet lol. But I did do a complete pull of my system (systemdump) cause I had ran out of space….somehow removing apps didn't allow for more room? I would pull an app and couldn't put it back. I even pulled like 6 apps and then still couldn't put back the framework, so rather than reboot I just did a system dump and then dragged the 20mb of .so files that I added to try get facebook sync and several other things working and sure enough FB syn stopped working, but allowed me to put my framework back and get my phone online again. That being said I added back what .so files could have been needed and still no sync? Hmmm that means there is an .so file that I bet no one has even considered being necessary and it IT IS!
I now have to play a game of trial and error till I find out which one it is. I am contemplating restoring my system before system dump and then pulling a whole **** tin of apps that I would normally like or need and then keeping sync and then one by one pull files from libs directory until FB sync stops working. Then re-add all the apps I want back up to stock. That will give me a clean ROM to work with.
