Droid X wont download zip files? - Droid X General

Is there any way to get rid of this restriction with the zip files and other files as well.

Hi,
I don't know of a native method of removing that restriction, but the free app Byte Tornado downloader integrates with the browser and allows almost any file to download directly to the phone.
I hope that helps.

download Astro from the market or appbrain then you can download zip files and extract the apk files from the zip. It's also a great utility app to manage files and backup applications.

I use opera browser to download files. It how's never given me any problems.

Sadly the stock browser restricts a lot of downloads: .zips (and many .apk's if not all).
Probably there to "protect" itself.
But any third party web browser
(Dolphin HD or Opera) can do those kinds of files.
That is if you don't wish to use a download manager app.
Hope this helped someone!

I download using giganews on my PC, is there an app to do same on Android?

Probably not. And if there are download speeds are probably **** with crazy unrar times. There are however apps to control download programs like sabnzbd+.

Actually, you need NewzDroid, Newzbin2Search and Unrar Pro.
Newzdroid is the binary downloader that needs a NZB file.
Newzbin2Search provides the NZB file but you need an account at Newzbin
Unrar Pro unrars the files you download.
Good luck

Any way to pull the Gallery app off of my tab and load it on my phone?

I love that the Honeycomb Gallery app allows for caching Picasa photos offline. I have yet to find a phone app that does it. Would it be possible to pull the app off my tab and load it on my phone? If so how?
Thanks.
You can extract it from the deodexed ROM in the development forum and try that. Download the ROM, unzip, find the apk and load it onto your phone's SD

great idea i will try that now. thanks.
Didn't work. Phone says it can't open it as an apk file.
Is your phone rooted? If so, back up your existing gallery sol (just in case), then use a root file explorer to move the new gallery into /system/app

I have made a titanium backup zip of the file. Unfortunately all attempts at saving th file a an apk failed. But I was able to make a TB of it. Here is the download link.

sweet
Thanks mate,that worked, i installed the apk fine and its working sweet, thanks to you. Seems the market is giving out a false response to loads of phones saying they are incompatable. Strange but mines workiing so good times
Yeah I was getting the same false compatible. I would download it and as soon as it was installed on the android market website it would say incompatible. But whatever, guess this is only for the US users dont know why that it but wanted to share it. If you use it please post your opinion on it. Again I have not used it but am considering doing so now that I have it installed.
I've used it,its okay with a bit more work it'll be good, iris I think looks better graphically. My only hope for cluzee is the ability to Change voice etc

How do I install it from the zip file? Rom Manager aborted the install.
Unpack the zip and unpack it again on the Apk file name,then install,probably better on pc then transfer over

Its a 3 file zip. Uncompress with root explorer, and move the files to your titanium backup folder and restore with titanium backup. Then you should he good
