i have realplayer but when i try to open flv i got a messege (the content is not supported on this phone)
so is there any programe which can open these formulas?
You mean you can't download them? You could zip them then upload them again.
If you don't wanna do that, you could install a different browser from the market - Opera, Skyfire, etc.
A third option is to install Astro File Manager and tick the "Enable Browser Download" option in preferences.

I have a Samsung Epic 4G Touch and im having minor issues. Why is it when I try to download a zip files it says unsuccessful? Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to enable something or download an app? Everytime I see something on XDA that I wantt download, I just simply cant.
It's the stock browser blocking the download. Try Opera or Dolphin HD.
I tried Dolphin and it downloads the zip file, but it gives me a warning message that no application has been found to open this file. I also tried an Opera and the same thing. Do I need a specific app in order to open them?

Thank you, it worked.
UPDATE:
Yes, it is possible! Here is how:
1. Create a html file, for example bookmark.html
2. Put this file in a folder in the internal storage, for example: \Download\bookmark.html
3. Open the browser and set the homepage to Other and fill in this:
file:///sdcard/Download/bookmark.html
4. Kill the browser process, make sure you open a fresh new web browser session.
The bookmark.html will be loaded

Hi,
Is it possible to set the browser homepage to a local html file?
I saw we can set the homepage to "Other ", but I don't know how to do it.
If this is possible, I would like to create something like shortcuts of websites in local html for quick access.

Browser doesn't appear to like local html files for some reason. I just tried to open on via root explorer but it isn't a listed option. Also as I'm sure you've already tried, trying to link via browser only just searches google for whatever you type in.

Homescreen Link
Now, were you able to put a bookmark on your home screen? I have the link set up to open my spreadsheet in my browser (thanks everyone for the directions), but when I put the link on my homepage it tries to open as a PDF rather than sending the XLSX to quickoffice? Any ideas?

In the Galaxy Nexus stock browser, when I long-press on a text link, the menu option to "save link" is available. However, when the link is a button graphic, long-pressing the link only gives the option to "save image", "view image", or "set as wallpaper". How do I download the link (an mp3 file) from the browser?
On all of my previous Android devices, the stock browser would recognize that even though the link is represented by an image, it's still a link. Long-pressing would give the option to save link. By the way, my other Android devices have been the original Droid, Droid X, Toshiba Thrive, Nook Color running CM7.
This seems like a step back for the ICS browser. I tried using the Dolphin HD browser, but had the same problem. My current workaround is to click on the link, tell it to complete action using another app that will allow me to copy the link's URL, then pasting the link in an app called Download Manager to download the file (and if I navigate away from that app in the middle of a download, the download fails). I prefer to download from the stock browser, because it's more convenient and it can continue downloading the background while I do something else on the phone. I tried disabling "show images" in the stock browser settings, but when I do I'm unable to long-press the particular link I've been attempting. Normal-clicking the link only plays (streams) the mp3 file or asks what app I want to use to play the file; it doesn't download the file locally. I also have Astro File Manager installed on all devices, with the option enabled to allow downloading of all file types in the browser, but that shouldn't matter, because mp3 is a file type that's already recognized by the OS.
The link I'm talking about is at the following URL:
http://kelbytv.com/thegrid/2012/01/05/the-grid-episode-37/
If you scroll down to the bottom of the episode summary, there's a button that says "Download Audio Only" that links to an mp3 of this podcast.
Can anyone help solve this or confirm that they have the same problem?
similar issue
i have the same issue but with a different file type (.mov). Any idea how the link can be saved/downloaded? thanks in advance.
Hi Guys,
I have a cd-rom which uses firefox browser to open a series of slides and images, I have put this on my Hard drive and I can use this just fine here, I have tried to put it on my HOX because I think it could run, it requires the same flash player to run but when I try to open the html file it only gives me the option to run DB Text editor, File editor or html viewer.
Is there anyway I could get it to open in the web browser, or maybe alter the code to have it open in opera for instance.
I installed Simplemind Pro and have Dropbox installed on my rooted Galaxy S3 Android 4.4.2 phone.
I'd like to set up Simplemind to save and read files to Dropbox which it is supposed to do.
Below are your instructions on how to do this along with what happened when I followed them:
How to connect SimpleMind for Android to Dropbox
Make sure the Dropbox app for Android is installed. YES
Open SimpleMind and tap the Mind Maps button YES
Top left in this window's toolbar you'll see navigation tabs as depicted on the right. Initially this will usually be "Local". Tap that to see supported clouds and select Dropbox. YES
If Dropbox is not visible in this list, use "Cloud Setup" to enable Dropbox support. VISIBLE
Selecting Dropbox from the navigation Tabs, opens the build-in Dropbox Explorer. AN EXPLORER DOESN'T OPEN. THERE IS A TEXT BOX THAT SAYS "CONNECT TO DROPBOX". WHEN I SELECT THIS I GET THIS ERROR MESSAGE: "CANNOT SETUP DROPBOX: UNABLE TO ACCESS PUBLIC STORAGE".
In this Explorer authenticate with Dropbox using the "Connect to Dropbox" command. This prompts you for confirmation to let SimpleMind access your Dropbox folder. I NEVER GOT ANY SORT OF PROMPT TO LOGIN AND CONNECT.
I've been told that this is because Simplemind is not finding a public folder. I don't know if I have one, where it would be, how to set it up, etc.
Any ideas?
