Many people including me have tried to download something from the Mega host, just to run into troubles, and if you are like me, you dont want to install the app...
I found a little trick i thought i'd share, hopefully its the right place to share it.
When you run into a thread that has a link to Mega, you are normally greeted with the nice Mega App redirect page. To get around this:
1) Change your browser to Desktop mode on the current page you are on, not on the Mega redirect page.
2) Most importantly, tap and hold the download link and copy the link address.
3) Paste the link address into your current desktop viewed tab, and go.
You should now be able to get to the actual download without the app and/or fuss.
Cheers!
Thank you for sharing this it was kind of hard to figure out and it was annoying to have their ad for the app always appearing.

Awesome! Now do you know how to get the browser to open tabs in the background?

The app doesn't support downloading from folders anyway. So your method is still the best bet even if the app is installed. I should also mention that this method works with the stock browser I couldn't get it to work with Dolphin.

You can try entering this into your browser- i didnt have to touch anything once i hit enter., just paste the link and go. Afterwords, try tapping and holding a link, open in new tab, and it should open in the background.

Thanks for the help. It didn't work. I exited the browser (cause the Relaunch Browser button on the bottom didn't work), but still, tabs open in foreground. Weird that this is not an option. (BTW I'm using the built in brower)
Seems it's not working anymore with stock browser under CM12.1
Just curious, why not just install the app? It is IMO one of the best cloud storage/file sharing services you can use, way better than dropbox or box. Would love to understand why people don't use it.

Because it's slow, it downloads to a cloud 1st then to my phone and never allows me to use download booster so that's it in a nutshell for me anyways
Seems that Mega does no more allow uploading img files
I usually upload stock e.g. boot img, recovery.img, persist.img whenever I switch or update the ROM (used to do it on several devices and never had problems)
Yesterday I wanted again but it didn't upload. Then I tested:
- same img files that I uploaded with no problems time ago to Mega, but now uploading to another folder on Mega
- by renaming img files to bin files
- I even downgraded from the recent Mega 4.3 apk to 4.2.2 (because the last time, two weeks ago I successfully uploaded two img files and I checked now that Mega 4.3 apk was updated afterwards, just few days ago)
But no avail
I can upload my stock or Android patched boot images but ONLY if I ZIP them
However, I checked with a TWRP img file (for flashing TWRP) and it worked
Also, all my img files that were previously uploaded to Mega are still there and can be downloaded
I'm an old Mega user, with 50 GB limit, and I have 26 GB of free space (boot images are about 20 MB each), hence there is no lack of space problem - btw, I just uploaded an even bigger zip file with no problem

I haven't tried this on the Acer, but I had the same problem with my Droid x at first.
Go to the market and download "Download All Files". On the Droid, this is a browser addon for stock. Try to install it, launch it, then try the browser again. You might have to kill the process first aafter installing it.
I'm going to test it now for myself.

I had the same problems, since then for downloads I am using Opera Mini and for normal browsing Dolphin HD.
Im coming from a nexus s running CM, and on that i was able to download any file on the net direct to the phone.
On my note, i have been trying to do the same thing, however, moments after the download starts, it fails and i get an error message saying that the type of file is not compatible with my device.
The files ive been trying to download are the plugins (such as nVidia) for chainfire 3d... It also happened yesterday when i was trying to download some custom boot animations.
This means i have to wait till i get home, download to my pc then transfer them.
is it because im on the stock rom, and future custom roms will fix this? Or is there something i can change that will sort this?
I am rooted.
Are you using the stock browser?
If so, why not try a different browser, give Opera browser a go and see if you have any more download problems.

Hi all,
I recently flashed Koshu's unbelievable ROM which brought JB to the TPT. I am using v. 0.8.1 at the time of writing.
Naturally, I lost all the Lenovo stock applications which came with the TPT. I especially miss the USB transfer app which would allow for transferring documents between a USB drive and the TPT
[The question]: Is there any way to restore the stock lenovo applications to the tablet? I know that the original image must be on the TPT SOMEWHERE seeing as doing a factory reset will re-load all apps.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Some of these preinstalling and normally free to find in PlayStore APKs are even still on your TPT, because they are seperated into two locations:
1. The preinstall APK files you metioned and you and everyone else should still have are in /mnt/pia/. like the preinstalled games, media players, readers and business thingies.
2. The System APK files which were in /system/app/. like NotesMobile, all those Lenovo Widgets, USB FileCopyUtility etc
system
I will upload the latter one first. Copy what you want to /system/app/. and be sure that all permissions are the same as the ones of all other system APKs already being there and have fun. If someone deleted the ones in /mnt/pia/. out of whatever reason I upload them if asked for, too.

Yes, the USB-transfer-utility can (most likely but not definitely) be installed onto a 3rd-party ROM.
The question is do you need to? Any decent "explorer" app (e.g: Root Explorer) can see the contents of a connected USB (look in /mnt/usbdrive) and copy files on/off it.
Most of the Lenovo stock apps are clunky bloatware. Plenty of far more functional apps are available on Play.

youre welcome. the tpt community needs every helping hand. we are not that big.
one thing more. there are rumors that the tool won't find the usb device. keep me updated. maybe we find a solution for that too.
Ok, so a few observations here:
1) The USB transfer tool will only disaply /sdcard, and none of the other mounts. So to say, that the full size sd-card reader does not appear in the app, nor does media attached to the full sized USB port. Both drives however can be found using ES-FIle explorer
2) Any idea where that launcher widget is? I have searched EVERYWHERE for it. I am talking about the stock widget that has links for movies, music, books, browser etc. I miss this widget above all else.
Any help would be really appreciated! Thank you again!

A few suggestions:
1) Wipe your "Play Store" cache
2) Which version did you install? Maybe try one of the other files in the linked file.
3) Download "Papyrus Beta" from the Play Store--it has Lenovo digitizer support for the TPT and is an amazing application. Optimized for ICS and JB (I believe)

It could that NotesMobile is in some way locked to the Lenovo ROMs. It makes sense that they would do this since its an OEM app and not available elsewhere.
NotesMobile has a large number of language-specific data files associated with it (also found in that file emuandco linked to here). It's worth copying all of these across to /system/apps too before writing this off.
@jakymiwm: NotesMobile isn't the only "Notes" app with handwriting recognition. WritePad can do this too ... albeit in a different manner.

It may very well be dependant on the Lenovo ROM. Write pad is good. The only issue I have with it, is the interface. Actual functionality is great though!

I did move all the files over. The only thing I didn't do is change all of the permissions. I made sure I changed the main app and the en_.. apps.
I also tried to change the build.props to see if that could help. It did not. It must be looking at the SDK version. I can't change that without getting into a boot loop.

When you say you changed the 'build.prop' file, did you modify the string which sets the OS version? I feel like this is a framework issue....
I changed everything in the build and product area except for the SDK version. If I change the SDK version the tablet will boot loop.

That's a good question. It should be /system/app as that's where the all other widgets are (Lenovo Bookmarks / Lenovo Mail / etc). But I can't see anything that stands out obviously. The official name is "Lenovo Launch Zone" if that helps.
It might be that Lenovo shoehorned it into the default ICS launcher (Launcher2.apk). Or perhaps it's in one of the preinstall apks. You could try them one by one until it appears.

Here's the one from my /system/app (stock ROW OTA3.5).
I suspect this isn't it but you're welcome to try anyway.
EDIT:Having a look through the graphics elements within Launcher2, it appears that it may actually be the location of that widget. I don't know how it will play in CM10 as I think that uses Trebuchet as it's launcher. Using Lenovo's launcher may break things.
Uploaded as a .zip (to get round attachment file size restrictions).
Sorry for the total noob question, but here goes. I have rooted my NST, using the following instructions: http://tinymicros.com/wiki/NOOK_Simple_Touch_%28NST%29_Rooting_For_Practiscore Forgive the external link, I just wanted to be clear on where I am at.
If this isn't acceptable, apparently the source of the info is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1346748 and I used the "the 'Normal + Xorzone's mods + adb Wifi' build "
Practiscore works flawlessly and my nook does what I need it to do. Now I have been thinking that it would be cool to be able to surf the web or at least be able to use the internet over wifi to load apps without having to load it on the SD card manually.
Right now, when I open the browser, it will actually open www.google.com when I set it to the home page but then crash whenever I try to do anything - even just clicking on the search box. The fact that it will actually open google, tells me my connection is working, but either the root process broke the browser, or something else is wrong. I can also open the market and get it to show me some apps, but it won't let me search or surf to any app. Searching just hangs and displays nothing.
I've tried searching but I haven't had any luck in picking the proper search terms to get an answer, and for some reason there is a script running wild on this page that refreshes it every 2 seconds interrupting what I am doing. That problem is probably on my PC, but firefox is what I have.
Ok, I got some things to install by d/l'ing the APK's directly to the SD card on a PC. I still haven't gotten the app store to work, or google.
The app store search will not work on your nook touch, the only way to install apps are either sideloading them or installing them wirelessly using google play on your computer.
You may want to use Opera Mobile instead of the basic browser, it would be easier than getting the stock one working.

Ok, this thing is just not working, everything I try in the market or using the browser just crashes. I downloaded the opera mini, but I didn't get an apk, so I have no idea how to install the extracted files. Most of the apk's I have found to put on here don't work either and just crash. I cant even get hangman or a crossword to load for pete's sake...
Did you root it to run Practiscore on?
If not, I'd suggest restoring your backup, upgrading to 1.2.1 firmware, then using NookManager with NTGAppsAttack (see the Nook Touch Android Development Forum here on xda). That worked just fine for me. But I don't need to run Practiscore.

Yes, the link in the OP was what I used.
1. NTGAppsAttack - working google play
2. use SeachMarket.apk to look for APK's in Google play.

3. Use Opera Mobile instead of Mini.
4. To manually install .apk (without using ADB)
- put it on your uSD.
- open it using Relaunch or any other file browser that you use.

Hey everyone,
This is not a super important question, but it still irritates me. I wanted to try out the game Arena of Valor (which hit the German PlayStore recently) and play a round with some friends. But it turns out it apparently can't be installed. (My friends running the default roms on their phones (Huawei etc.) Have no issues at all)
I have an Axon7 running one of the latest Resurrection Remix Builds and I am rooted using Magisk. I have not experienced any other problems with downloading or installing apps from the PlayStore.
But whenever I tap on download, the download of the game starts and (since it is a rather large one) takes a while (I get the normal download bar and everything). Then after a while it says "installing" for another like 5 minutes to then suddenly give me an error message which reads as follows (rough translation from German):
" App can not be downloaded.
'Arena of Valor ..... Game' (full name of the game) can not be downloaded. Please try again. If the issue remains you can get help from the Probelmsolving article. (Code of error: 492) "
So obviously I tried again (for like 15 times now), I also tried rebooting my phone several times and I did search the code of error online and found out that it's supposed to be google-related and clearing the cache of the PlayStore and services could fix this, but it did not for me.
At this point I'm pretty confused, since I can install any other app (I've tried so far) just fine and I am now wondering why this would be. Could it be an issue with root, but then again I'd think it would tell me, as other apps did before. Does any one else have this issue or the app successfully installed on their device? Or does anyone have an idea what could cause my problem and fix this? Thanks for any help in advance!
Cheers

Hey thanks for your feedback!

Well, I'd say I thought so it'd do that, but it did worth a shot. I'm sorry it didn't help.
Edit: Just got something on my mind. On ine of the stock updates (can't remember which one) download from the Play Store was really, I mean REALLY slow through Wi-Fi. But I realized that if I simply start the download then put the phone in 'sleep' mode by pressing the power button, the download speed is just turns back to normal. It was pretty obvious during big downloads. It was really slow (shown 30 minutes or so for finish), then I just pressed power, checked on it in a couple of minutes and download was done. I don't know why it did this, but it worked every time, maybe you should try that. Other than that, go back to stock. jk.

I guess that app has obb too, so you should install an FTP server on your phone and an FTP client on one of your friends' phones, then go to /sdcard/Android/obb/ and copy the folder of the game to the same place on your phone

Lol no, what Play store does is just download the apk from a database and install it on your phone, then download whatever extra files the app needs. If you bought the app it will also provide authentication in case that it needs to get it.
So basically you can do the same process manually (as long as it's free) by downloading the apk and the obb, then moving the obb folder (named com.devname.appname) to /sdcard/Android/obb/.
Otherwise you can try wiping Play store's cache and try to download it, and if that still doesn't do anything delete its data.
Just checking, is your Axon 7 a Chinese version- the A2017?
I have had trouble downloading large data files for games on this from playstore too... It might have something to do with the fact that google had to be installed from other places and google has a security issue with our devices...
After a few updates, currently on B08, it works. Can download apps that failed prior to this update...

Where did you get the obb folder from? Try root browser, even if you don't have root.
The obb is just additional files that the app uses. I guess they need to do that because you's have to download the whole thing if they just updated the app like they usually do. So for a 3 GB game you might only need to download ~100 mb instead of the whole 3 GB when you update it

OBB files are basically the data files., just in a different format. The Obb files will come in a separate folder if the whole thing isn't RAR'ed or Zipped up...
You should have games apk file and a separate folder with OBB files inside.

Well I am rooted (Magisk) but ES Explorer is unable to enable the root functions for some reason even though it has Superuser rights in Magisk... And solid explorer as any other I've tried so far won't move files to the obb folder.
And I got the file from the phone of a friend as suggested

Again, try Root browser (the old one won't be able to move stuff to the SD card, but it's even better than the new one). Much better than those two... ES explorer is the worst bloated piece of crap there is.

I agree with you on ES , and tried out the new root browser which leaves a really good first impression! Didn't know of this app so far, so thanks for pointing it out!
But I still can't do it... I'll attach a short screen capture of what is happening for me

(Since the upload on XDA didn't work for me)

Just checking, is your Axon 7 a Chinese version- the A2017?
I have had trouble downloading large data files for games on this from playstore too... It might have something to do with the fact that google had to be installed from other places and google has a security issue with our devices...
After a few updates, currently on B08, it works. Can download apps that failed prior to this update...
