[Q] Can't download files in browser - Nexus S General

I'm running ICS but I had the same problem with GB. Whenever I try downloading a file in the browser it adds it to the download list with the name "<Untitled>" and stays "In progress" forever. Anyone else have this problem and/or know how to fix it?
Also, I just noticed T-Mobile is DNS hijacking. When did they start doing that?!

I edited my build prop in an attempt to speed up network speeds. So there's another thing that might be the root cause

go to manage apps, all, download manager and clear its data. that should fix it.

Already tried clearing data, didn't help. I'm running rooted stock ICS but it started happening when I was still on GB.

Sometimes the file is too big and wifi is needed. If you're near a wifi connection connect to it and try if it downloads. I think there is an option where you download big files only when you are on a wifi connection

Yeah, it makes no difference on the file size or if I'm on wifi. It fails no mater what.

also, make sure you have the right app for whatever file type you are downloading. I had to get astrozip installed before I can download zip's.

It was all the ics roms. Its fixed in cm9 a 19.

[MOD] Flash 10.3 Working HULU Updated: 8/9/11

Thanks goes to s197 From incredibleforum.com
I just reuploaded the file and pieced together two different posts of his to get the original to work on this phone.
Hope you all enjoy!
Thanks to KhasMek and anyone else i forgot!
also, make sure your browser is not set to use mobile. it will not work if it is set to that. so if your using stock browser un-check mobile view. if your using dolphin HD make sure your User Agent is set to Desktop.
Flash 10.3 + Hulu_8 is version 10.3.186.3
Edit 2:
updated for new flash, thanks Almighty1 for the edited libflashplayer.so that's been put into the latest flash from market
and added a zip of the modded .so file. i had no problem installing it though after i uninstalled the previous version of the apk.
You can use root uninstaller from market to uninstall some of those apps, such as flash, that come pre-installed on your phone. If you do it that way, make sure to do a reboot after you uninstall flash to make sure it uninstalls all the way.
compuw22c has also made a flashable version if you guys prefer.

Hey guys, visitor from the Epic forums but I loved these hacked libs, but had issues with them sticking on reboot after upgrading to gingerbread. I've compiled them into a CWM flashable zip located in This Post or This DL Link. Details included in the post, credit goes to imneveral0ne for the hex-edited lib files. Enjoy guys! (actually, I'm not quite sure if you guys have this issue or if you have a GB leak out, but regardless, if it doesn't stick on reboot or in 4 days when you get your update, you'll be ready)

I've made this quick little hack to get flash working on any rom (that I've tested).
http://www.mediafire.com/?j4i91phv6g96rtm
Basically, you need to be root. Extract the files to your phone (system -> /system, data -> /data) and reboot. You need to have stock flash installed. It basically patches the libflashplayer on startup so you don't have to manually.

Ok i got Hulu working on my Thunderbolt by following these steps.
1. Download Flash 10.2 on your phone, make sure its set to not auto update
2. Download http://www.mediafire.com/file/en3tj77er9ucrqp/libflashplayer.so
3. Use Root Explorer or ADB to put the file in: /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib
4. If it asks if you want to overwrite the file chose yes, i know it will if you use root explorer, not sure about adb cause i didnt use it.
5. Enjoy Hulu on your ThunderBolt!

1. Download the 3g turbocharger from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=979490&d=1333415041
2. If you don't have script manager, get it from the play store.
3. Navigate to the 3g turbocharger download.
4. Click it and select run as root (icon is the superuser logo)
5. Run the script and select your speed settings. Reboot twice to ensure the build.prop tweak works.
6. Verify your data speeds with speed test and test each setting to find fastest speed.
Hope this helps you as well.

I had a build of cm7 taken from madteam (whitexp"s thread) combined with his kernel from here at xda. after flashing the rom and kernel i flashed Fp1-tweak.zip from nagedhra's thread. after reboot, i tested wifi and portable tethering. wifi turns on but not scanning and for about 20 second it shows error. for portable tethering, it shows active, windows can connect (open mode only) but cannot browes. so, sorry for making this thread but i really like cm7 for young.

[ROM][BETA] cTouch Project - No Phone, Just Captivate.

cTouch
By Sepherian
No Phone, Just Captivate
Info: I have removed most of the phone files from the following ROM(s) to turn them basically into a cTouch (captivateTouch)
Phone Files I have Removed: Phone, Messaging, Modem, and any Icons related to a signal has been degraded to ONE pixel. Looks pretty goood.
Directions to flash:
1: NANDROID BACKUP
2: Download your ROM to your SD Card
3: Reboot into recovery, wipe data + cache
4: Install the rom
5: If Rom bootloops retry step 4
6: Prophet?
How I will be updating:
I will evolve the method I use to edit and Build these ROM(s) over time. So they will be labeled by V2 or V3, and the name of the rom will remain the same.
Also, the ROM(s) will update shortly after the developer updates it. (About a week or so)
CM9 and 10 (if they end up being supported) will be updated when I feel like it.
Rom(s) Built so far: (Please read all three posts before downloading)
Superbean 2.8.17 Built by Nygfan760 Download: Click here
If you donate to me, put your xda name and a rom you would like cTouch-inized in the memo and I will put it at the top of my list to finish (even before updates)​
Fixes:
For ALL:
Apply Airplane mode AT ALL TIMES. If it is on you should see a little CT in your notification bar. If it is off, your antenna will be on and wasting your battery. For no reason because you don't want this phone as a phone.
Bugs:
For SuperBean:
If you go to Mobile Network settings, the application will crash. This will happen if you long-press airplane or data toggles because those settings are under Mobile Data
And again...
First!

Works pretty well, although the phone app still exists. There are force closes from phone storage on boot. I was going to install titanium but there is no play store. Not very useful without it. I will try grabbing the latest jellybean gapps and pull the play store from that.
----------
Edit: pulled latest gapps for jb from cm wiki. Installed PhoneSky.apk and play store works like a charm. Why in the hell is it called PhoneSky? Backed up, froze, and un installed phone/messaging storage and have no more force closes from it. Did the same to Guard since it handles call and sms blocking, and also com.android.smspush. Everything is working well, going to figure out how to get rid of the phone app now.
----------
Edit 2: As I'm sure you've already figured out, the Phone "app" is just an intent sent to the Contacts app, and I don't think removing contacts would be a good idea...I did find this though: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5812909/removing-android-phone-app

If this ROM is based off of MIUI.... perhaps just CM10/AOKP with no phone functions? I'm looking to turn my phone into a mini tablet/music player for my brother when i get a new phone.

Well..the extreme would be factory reset/load stock fast boot images and OTA up to 4.1.2. Other possibilities - is there a possibility that your Wi-Fi connection is not cooperating with the Xoom? Did you move/remove any system files after routing that may cause a problem? If I had a clear cut answer I'd give it to you. Try some Google searching - you may be surprised with your findings.

Try going into your file manager delete some unused files : cache, downloads, any folder you don't need delete. This has always worked for me and frees up a ton of memory. Simply cleaning download manager and cache in recovery doesn't free up space as the files are still there.

The only reason for a download to be unsuccessful is a loss of connectivity... A timeout or inability to connect to the download server. That presumes the download starts but fails. If the download doesn't even start, that's a browser issue. The above also presumes you can download the files from other devices on your wifi.
Try going to another wifi hotspot. See if that makes any difference.
You didn't mention it, but I presume you have room left on your internal storage.

why not try another rom?!? i actually had this problem a lot running EOS a few builds ago and now it seems to have disappeared. usually Dolphin would work when others would not. titanium backup and factory reset?
I was having the same issue with CM 10.1 a couple of weeks ago, stock browser would not download properly and over screen browser seemed tobe much better. Later nightlies seem to have resolved the issue so most likely ROM based. Try another ROM and see if it clears the problem.
Good luck and hope you sort it out.
