Vibrant can't download through web browsers?

Hi everyone I just got my vibrant from tmo last week and I'm loving most of it so far.
I tried doing a search and couldn't find anything on this but maybe I missed it, so if I did, can someone help point me in the right direction? Thanks!
Basically, I am trying to download .doc and .ppt files directly from my class website which my professor posted up. I tried through the default web browser, dolphin browser, steel, skyfire and xscope. I am unable to download the files through any of these browsers except for xscope. Even through xscope though, the file is downloaded, but when I attempt to open through thinkfree office, all I see is html code in the document. Also, if I use documents to go, it says that it cannot be opened because it is actually an html file.
I have verified that through my laptop that the files on the website do work and can be downloaded to my pc.
Thanks for the help!
I've got a Captivate and I noticed the same thing today... using Skyfire to log into WebCT (or "Blackboard) and couldn't get it to download .pdf files or powerpoint files.... wonder if its related, or if maybe its the WebCT/Blackboard system itself.
Try installing a file manager like Astro and enabling the browser plug in. then you should be able to download any file.

Same for me, my uni also uses Blackboard (but thankfully i hear they are changing system next year or so). I've tried stock and opera browser.
Hard to tell where the problem is tho.. blackboard is fairly crappy software, doesn't work half of the time.
Like posted above... Download Astro (free from market) and open it, go to settings and enable "Enable browser downloader" and then you can download anything

Thanks, gave that a try but I still haven't been able to download the files off the website. I noticed one more thing though actually, I'm having trouble downloading say a .docx file through my yahoo mail, but the same file will download through gmail...
You might also give Opera a try. I ran into a similar issue when downloading from a campus webdav server, and Opera was the only browser that worked for me.

there used to be a download helper app, but I can't seem to find it in the market anymore.

Download Crutch Lite has always worked for me.
Thanks for suggesting opera, I completely forgot about that one and direct downloads from websites has been working for my current needs so far.
Is download crutch lite for the default web browser?
Its a stupid limitation most likely imposed by the carriers. I couldn't even download a mp3. I reconciled the problem with a.program called bytetornado from the apparently market. It does away with the restrictions.

I'm on a different ROM on Vibrant and I don't think that ThinkFree is no longer on my phone. I need to find which ROM has ThinkFree because having those options is a must for me.

[Q] Latest Youtube apk

Hello,
For some strange reason, I can't find the Youtube application on the market, whichever ROM I try. I used to get it fine on my HTC Magic but nothing on my HTC HD2.
I can't find Vocal Search either but that one can be found in CM's gapps.zip. No Youtube in that pack unfortunately...
So is there an address or thread that keeps an up-to-date .apk of the Youtube app ?
Thank you very much !
Install market enabler. Then launch market enabler, go to setting list, long press either us t-mobile or us-verizon. A menu will appear, press fake this provider now.
Now you'll be able to find the youtube app on market.
I know about that but I don't really want to install an app to get another app. I wouldn't use market enabler for anything else...
Check your PM.

There's a function called "Apps Un-installing", but then u already know dat.
Hi there. I installed a market enable but I still cannot find a youtube. is a reason because I'm from Serbia or what, i dont know. Please, if someone can give me a hand with this, I would be very happy. I found Maps and Gmail, but Youtube is the most important for me.
Found a solution. I didn't change a network in setings.

Solution found or ??
Same for me, cant find it in belgium, tried to download market enabler and it doesnt work either :-s
I found an apk file online and it doenst want to open either...Did anyone find another solution to this problem?
Strange that youtube isnt default anyways, but i guess thats one price to pay for having an HD2 on android...still a cool and much better phone with android that f*@king windows. ;-o

If you're from Belgium and go to the android market website on your computer, you'll see you won't be able to install youtube.apk because it's not allowed in our country. Market enabler is an old well-known solution, but I recall Google having removed the separation between market-regio's so Market enabler was no longer required. So why suddenly is there some country-based restrictions again on some apps :/ Even youtube.. I mean I can easily open a brower on my computer in Belgium and just access youtube so I don't understand why it would be forbidden to open it from a smartphone.

Android Marketplace Blocked

Greetings,
Question. Is there any way to get around the country restriction in Android Marketplace?
Just installed my first Android ROM on my HD2. Was super excited to hit the marketplace, only to find out that all the good apps are restricted in my country (UAE) can't even get Angry Birds FFS!
Thanks in advance...

Hi,
Are you able to go to Android Market on your laptop/PC?
Is the app 'Market Enabler' available in the UAE?
If so, you could install it and fake a different market region.
Market enabler doesn't always work. hasn't ever worked for me :/
Here are some workarounds:
some sites offer direct app downloads, angry birds for example is available on Opera app store, that's how I got it, you can download opera mobile to your PC and install it on the device, then use opera to enter their app store. a lot of apps there are free.
There are plenty of other sites offering free downloads as well.
Another solution (which is a bit hard) is installing the Android SDK and run android on your PC, and use a proxy to download apps to your PC then copy them to your phone. I heard it worked but haven't tried it myself.

my android market cant find google doc, google plus, youtube etc

hello all
recently i installed cm7 in my wildfire device....but my market apps can not find google docs,youtube,google plus etc apps.....
how can i do now ?
It seems you are in a region where some apps are not visible in google market.
So if market can't find those apps, what you can do is as follows:
Install the attached Market Enabler App. Once installed, under settings tab, long press t-mobile and choose "fake this provider now".
If you restart market again, you should be able to find all the google apps and you can also see paid apps as well.
Hope this helps,
Try to download from 4shared...
search youtube apk, gmail apk or etc..
It works for me..
Try installing from the web interface

[Q]Why I can't load this site in my s5?

Po.st/
It seems that I can't access this site with any browser in my phone, I don't remember when it still but it's really annoying. It's a link shortener service used by many pages on my facebook timeline like news, men's health, music......
I've tried to access this site with facebook browser, Mozilla and chrome but even the home page of po.st/ gave me an error message
So, any idea how to fix this?
I'm on lollipop but I remember having this problem with KK too.
Thank you
Do you use an adblocker? If so that's probably why.
Edit... Im assuming your rooted. You can use the Hosts editor app and open it and search www.po.st and select that file and delete it then you should be good to go.
