if you install astro from market then in the apps settings you have a check box.

Is there a way to download files from email or web that the phone says aren't supported?

Yes, install a file manager program like Linda File Manager. Go into its settings and make sure "Download Plugin" is on. If you are having problems downloading attachments in the stock email program, don"t use it. Use your browser to go to the real site (like hotmail.com) and then you should be able to download your attachment like on a pc. You still may have to rename a files extension to download your attachment if sending to yourself. I had to rename an apk to a txt to be able to save it to my phone. Then I just went into Linda and renamed it back to an apk file and it worked fine.
Thank you, worked great.

Help me to install games in my xperia x10 from PC as i cant access mobile internet.
Either use adb from the android SDK or copy the files to your sdcard and then use a file manager from the market that can install apk files!

I copied in my phones others folder and went to office suite to check the copied file . apk. but unable to c any copied files whsat may be the reason.
hope u can give me a solution.
use androidcommander, its really nice and simple gui.
Office suite only displays files it can open. It does not know what to do with a apk file. Download a file manager from the market

Appbrain.com is nice and simple, although if you are looking for paid apps for free you will have to find on your although, the sites do exist.

I have downloaded apps from 4shared and worked perfect.
But now when I try to download any apk file it says the file is not supported. And if I force the download it downloads its as .bin
And whatever I do I can't open it.....
How can I fix this.....?
Edit:
After I downloaded an app I manually changed it from .bin to .apk
Do I have to do this everytime?? Why is that? Help please

Download ASTRO from the Market, Go to Prefs, Enable Browser Downloads...
Or... Use Dolphin HD Browser.

Please post all questions in Q&A section.
Thanks so much. I had previously installed Astro and had been downloading apk's but then did a factory reset, and reinstalled everything, and couldn't figure out why my apk's weren't installing. such a simple thing caused hours of frustration.
Hello again, ive come across another problem, ive just tried to download cyanogenmod zip file on my phone but as soon as the download starts it stops straight away, when i click on it it says download not supported for your phone??
I can download from market and i can also download a rar file from this site as well, so it just seems to be zip files.
It was fine yesterday, does anyone have any advice please??
Thanks

Wrong forum. This is more a question. But you need to install a filebrowser capable of reading zip files to download them. ES File Explorer or I/O File Explorer would do the trick. It does on mine.
Download astro file manager, free in market, and then go to preferences>> enable browser downloader. Now you can download anything
Or use Opera Mobile for your browser

Can someone tell me any android browser which can upload files to site like dev host i have tried most browsers like :
Opera mini/classic/beta , Dolphin browser , Mozilla ,Boat , Stock , and many more cant remember all the names but all failes to upload files some stops immediately some keep loading and stops after few minutes my pc is not working and i need to upload a file of 200mb.
Please some one tell is there any browser or method with which i can upload files to dev host
Unfortunately no Web browser iv used on my phone can upload files larger than around 8mb to dev host - the browser just crashes if file is too large
I recommend for large files to download the mediafire app from playstore as you can upload large files & publicly post links without problems
You can also use the Dropbox app but don't publicly post links to large files or your account maybe suspended (sharing with one person is fine privately)
But Sir after uploading it to mediafire from the app or to dropbox is it possible to get the direct download link from viewing page source like in dev host

Yes long press on the file and select copy link share link etc (varies between different apps)
The link is then copied to your phone's clipboard and you can then paste it anywhere
mediafire app - press arrow next to file - select copy link - paste link in email text message Web browser etc
dropbox app - long press on file - select share - select copy link - paste link as above
Try to split your file using winrar or hjsplitter.
