Can I use android build-in browser download manager to download files in my application?
In case of audio files, opening remote file url using Intent.ACTION_VIEW with data type "audio/*" causes browser to start playback, but I'd like to force download of specified file.

Is posible download Android SDK components without the Android SDK manager? in windows xp
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to develop an application for the android platform that can download some files from my server.
How can i use android's download manager like it is used in the Android market app? I mean, the one when the user downloads something, a download status is shown in the notification bar.
I am loading my web pages into the default browser in the Android Emulator using Xampp and localhost (as 10.0.2.2). The pages load okay but no images are displayed.
In browser settings, under bandwidth management, "Load Images is ticked". Google displays images if I do an image search.
Turning off anti virus and firewall makes no difference.
I downloaded the Android SDK and AVD manager and began downloading the packages but every time I try the download stalls about 20% of the way through it. Before it stalls, it downloads very slowly (about 30kb/ sec). Some more details: I'm running on Windows XP. I've tried turning SSL on and off from within the manager. I've also tried running it within Eclipse and also from the command line. Is there a debug mode or something to figure out what its doing? I would also be willing to try debugging it myself if the source to the AVD manager is available. I found the following discussion on the slow downloads, but haven't found anything on the stalling issue. http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have recently accidentally deleted the standard ICS Download Manager on my wife's rooted Huawei G300 (I wasn't wearing my glasses...). This means that the Play Store no longer works. I have the identical phone, so I used Titanium to backup the D.Man., copied the files across to the same folder in my wife's phone. Unfortunately, Titanium doesn't "see" the backup. how I could reinstall before my wife finds out...?

I can Flash recovery, but when I download to install BB, it just reboots. However, it must be restoring something because it keeps showing a missed call that I've cleared about 30 times. Any ideas why I can't get it to install a ROM?

View 9 Replies View Relatedmy testers on Droids and Nexus Ones (Android 2.0.1 and 2.1) were complaining that their downloads are failing. Since I don't have an 2.0 phone, I tried it out in a 2.0 emulator, and lo-and-behold, it didn't work. The download shows the indeterminate progress for a second or two, then shows "Download unsuccessful".
Based on what I see in the logs, it is apparent that the server is returning a 404 for the download request from 2.0 browsers. I can download to my desktop and 1.6 phone no problem. The only reason I can think of that the server would return a 404 for a request is that for some reason the credentials or cookies aren't being passed by the download process. Logcat shows: http error 404 for download x.......
I am trying to stream video (or use progressive download) to a Motorola Droid Browser and am not having a lot of luck. With my iPhone, I can direct Safari to http://xxx.xxx.xxx/FileName.mp4 (which is an MPEG-4 video file) and Safari opens quicktime and the video plays. However, with the Droid, I go to the same web address and am faced with a error stating "Cannot play video. Sorry, this video is not valid for streaming to this device".
When I direct the Droid's browser to a WMV file, it will fully download the video file and then play it in what appears to be the Droid video player if I click on it. Ideally, I'd like to replicate the behavior of the iPhone on the Droid, where the video player pops up and the video starts before the complete download. Video format isn't an issue, as I can encode the video to pretty much any standard. I was trying the .mp4 file because the Droid documentation says that it supports MPEG-4 video, although I can't get it to work from the browser.
In Android, I am trying to make it so that the user downloads a font from the browser and I am able to view the font when downloaded. After multiple issues, I still have one lingering one: Registering the file type with the browser. When trying to download with the Emulator (2.1-u1), I get "Cannot download. The content is not supported on this phone". Okay, so maybe its my manifest file. Updated with this:
<activity android:name=".MainActivity" android:label="MainActivity">
<intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
<catagory android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/>
<data android:scheme="http"/> <data android:scheme="https"/>
<data android:scheme="ftp"/> <data android:host="*"/>
<data android:mimeType="*/*"/> <data android:pathPattern=".*zip"/>
</intent-filter> </activity>
Went back to the browser, and fails again. Restart the Emulator, still fails. Note that I got this format from posts here.
Is there a faster way to delete the Download History on Android phones; instead of having to click each and every item in the history? Every thread I find dealing with deleting the Download History, has to do with deleting the normal browser history, not the Download History.
So is there an easier way? Because I just spent 10 minutes deleting each and every item in my Download History and there has to be an easier way of doing this.
Can someone explain me how I would be able to imitate the default browser when trying to download .apk from the net?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using APP Inventor, but it put my question as general from Android. How can i directly download a file from WEB without the browser try to open it.
I i put a url like: privatesite.blablabla/image.jpg
He will put the image in the browser, because browser can load the file and show it on screen, but i want to download it without reading it.
I need that to put inside App inventor, but if it's possible to do it in HTML or other, that's ok, i think i can make app inventor run an external application.

I do not own an Incredible, but I am a developer trying to support it.Can someone tell me the following. On the HTC Incredible, when you don't have an sdcard in, where does the browser download files to? Possibly /emmc/something/ ? Does this location change when you add an sdcard?On most android phones, the browser downloads to /sdcard/download/, but I since the Incredible has a lot of internal storage and doesn't come with an sdcard by default, I think the location is probably on /emmc. But,I need to what folder.
