[Q] Browser downloading issue - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have some strange issue with the stock browser.
When i try to download files, the download failed (from direct download sites like multiupload or megaupload).
But it works with dolphin or firefox.
I tried with differents roms and i have the same issue.
Anybody can help?

Simple.........use dolphin or firefox!

I prefer use the stock browser, firefox and dolphin are more heavy

Had the same problem today when I tried to download the latest CM7-nightly (download failes at 2% or 73%). The third time it works. I didn't touch the phone and let the notification bar pulled down. But don't ask me if this was the reason for the successful download...

[Q] 2.3.5 Browser crash help

I have Simply JVS 2.3.5. installed with the Bullet 1.42 kernel and when/e I would go to the browser and enter facebook or any other site, it would sometimes freeze then shut off the phone. Is it ROM or kernel related because this might render the browser useless to me as of now :/ Any help would be great!
Had a same problem with another gb rom. Its more than likely the browser. Try installing another one, such as dolphin browser HD & make it you default. Once i did this had no more issues. Gluck

I will do that, never thought of it cause I liked the stock better, but Dolphin is also good. Thanks.
Go to the i9000 theme and app section and look for the modded browser for JVS.

It does not work for me when I try downloading from it from the phone browser.
You can hit "request desktop site" in the ics browser and the site loads perfectly. If you are on gingerbread, get dolphin browser where you can change the UAC to Desktop.
Hope this helps.

Change the user agent in stock browser to desktop and everything will be working for sure. I just tested it.

CM9 + browser

I know it's not the phone because I tried stock and CM9 and the problem only persists on the latter. I've been trying the new browsers from Firefox (14 and beta) and none of them seem to work for me on Cyanogenmod 9. I looked online and it doesn't seem like it's a widespread problem. I've uninstalled and reinstalled. I've flashed and reflashed the ROM and yet when I load either Firefox 14 or Firefox Beta it just has the loading animation and doesn't load any pages except the ones that are on the homescreen, ie. Firefox Help, etc. I'm always on the latest nightly so I'm not sure what the issue is. Any ideas?
Maybe try ics browser+?

The stock ICS browser works, just like Chrome, Opera, etc. I'm just curious as to why I can't get any of the Firefox ones to. I wanted to try out version 14..

Both chrome and stock ICS/JB browsers do this. It appears its a server side problem. I would use Firefox or Opera mobile

I am having the same problem, even when trying to dl attachments from gmail. Tried clearing data for download manager, and browsers and still having the same issue. Maxthon is the only browser that will let me download anything. Going to flash back to stock out-of-the-box firmware and go from there...any fixes that don't involve a full wipe are greatly appreciated, as I have already wiped/restored a dozen times flashing new ROMs hoping it would solve the problem... thanks!

Try a different browser? I've had problems with Stock, although Chrome sometimes works depending on the site.
Dolphin Browser maybe?
I have the same problems with my htc evo 4g lte. Trying to download podcast from any Web browser or download larger rom files. It's usually on wifi when that happens... Wifi is 20meg connection.
My problem only happens on the occasion though, others every time and I use dolphin.
Any fixes?

I remember having this, but it was a while back and on a different phone (gingerbread).
But, my solution back then was to turn off the automatic time and date function.
Long shot but give it a try.
