Downloading MKV file, problems - Dell Streak 7

Hey guys, i'm having an issue with my streak. Its completely stock, minus rooting. I am trying to download an "mkv" file but it says it fails because it is not a compatible file? I thought a download was a download, am i doing something wrong? found the same clip in avi and it downloaded fine.

What is the file size? My guess is that in storage info xml file that Dell might have set a maximum file size downloaded able.
Code:
`maxFileSize`: maximum file size in MB.

change camera_click.ogg

ok guys.... here is where im at... i wanted to replace the camera click sound to the sound of the camera from texas chainsaw massacre.... i just like the way it sounds... i downloaded the file, converted it to .ogg renamed it camera_click.ogg but i am not sure what to do from here. i know i need to unzip the apk, replace the file, zip it again, and sign the file, but i have no clue where to begin on that. any help would be appreciated guys!
PS- i attached the .ogg file just remove the .zip to listen to it. also, if anyone just wants to try to tackle job that would rock as well
where did the ogg come from? (as in what location)
You should just be able to push it back using the terminal
cp /sdcard/nameoffile.apk /new/location/

the ogg is packed inside of camera.apk----- system/app/camera.apk
inside the apk, it is camera/res/raw/camera_click.ogg
i know i need to replace the .ogg file, once i do this do i just zip it back up, sign and push the new .apk to my phone?
running jacxrom btw

i want to try it, but im too chickensh** to try it right now, got class in the morning and i dont wanna spend tonight wiping my phone and setting things back up if it doesnt work right lol
question... once i edit the files i need to, i zip back up and it is named as zip... do i just change .zip to .apk and voila its changed and able to push to my phone or am i missing something here?
so i got the file replaced, but when i try to push/install back to my phone through adb i get install parse error. i tried using stericsons autosign util but no luck getting it working on my computer at the moment. if i upload the zip of the camera with the file replaced can someone sign and upload it back here again so i can use it? I would appreciate it.
EDIT---I got it signed and installed, but none of the sounds from the camera app play when i take a picture. Any idea as to why this may be?

Don't zip it. Open the apk with winrar and drag and drop in the new sound, it should remain as an apk. At this point you can try pushing it as it is. If it doesn't work then sign it, and make sure the method you're using works for apks (some are only for update.zip). If that adds a .zip on the end, remove it.

Yeah, I'm 99% sure that the length is the problem, just due to the way the app is programmed to load sounds. Wouldn't hurt to make it the same bit rate.

[Q] Re-Compressing Android ROM on OSX

Hi,
I just spent the past 3 hours downloading Rodriguez' MIUI mod on my computer because my connection is so slow. I usually download ROMS straight from my phone.
This time however, about an hour in, I realised that OSX Safari will unzip the ROM as soon as it finishes downloading automatically. I got into Preferences>General and change that setting, but it seems as though it didn't come into effect because I changed the setting whilst the download was in progress.
Anyway, is there any other way I can compress the ROM (which is now a folder) through any terminal commands either on the phone or on the computer?
I've already tried compressing it normally like any other folder with MM's Gingerbread ROM I downloaded yesterday. When I flashed it, I bootlooped so....
Oh and I can't download it again. I'm on the brink of going over my bandwidth allowance.
Thanks!
Well, You can use WinRAR like application for MAC (I Don't use OS X) so cant specify.
Select all the files and compress it to zip! Done!
Donate to me by clicking the Thanks if I helped you!
In theory, it would just be to compress it normally with the use of any archiver program which compresses to a .zip file. Not too familiar with OS X, so I cannot guide you into what program you'll need and how to do.
You need to re-compress the ROM files and sign the ZIP.

i think the issue is signing... Can someone tell us how to sign a rom on osx?

Signapk? But i think signing a rom is not neccesary anymore... Just turn off signature verification in recovery or use 4ext
I have had the same situation. Safari extracted the file automatically.
After waiting for 3 hours until the download completed, because the website is restricting my download speed to 100 kb/s.
I tried zipping and compressing the file both by a Windows system and a Mac. IT DID NOT WORK.
I have to download the file again.

Phone won't update to 2.3.4...not even manually

Okay, I'll keep it short and simple.
1. Got the phone and activated it. Running froyo
2. Rooted and installed CWM with the .bat one click file (I think it's the program MT wrote. It wasn't revotoolkit which I know is thecubed).
3. Realized I want to use gingervolt, so I need to update. I use the .bat file to un-root and go back to stock.
4. Try to manually push the OTA download through settings>about phone. Updates the phone to VS910ZV6 which is froyo 2.2.2
5. Try to update again (need gingerbread, which is VS910ZV7) and it keeps telling me "No new Software Update Available"
What gives? I'm thinking it may have something to do with the root? I also tried doing the manual update, you know the one floating around the internet using a .tot and LGNSP or whatever the acronym is, but Megaupload and Multiupload don't have the files anymore. Right now I'm downloading TheCubed's stock shipping rom and see if I can install it and get the update to go through.
Is there any fix that someone might know of? I ask because I've read several topics where people say they went down to stock shipping rom but they still couldn't update to gingerbread...then the topics just stop. Obviously they found their answer, so I'm hoping someone will share. I NEED TEH GINGERBREAD.
Thanks for all the help!
I had the same problem,
I was able to directly push GB using this method
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1337386
use the VS910ZV7.tot, that's the latest stock.
I found that post and I would LOVE to do it, but all the files are gone. Click a link, all of them say "file is no longer available".
file serve .tot links gone

Ok here's what I've done so far---
Followed the instructions to set it back to the stock rom-

Now My build version is VS910ZV4 and my software version is VS910ZV6
O_O
Can it change the build version without changing the software?????
Tried to update, no avail. Nothing happens, I just get the "no software available" crap. Shouldn't it atleast try to update the build version? and is there a reason why it changed my build version to V4 but not my software?
Read the last few pages of the thread. I posted a link for the V7 Gingerbread .tot file that is linked to my dropbox account. I also posted a link somewhere around here for the LGPNST. I'll try to find the links.

Oh hell...Did you edit that or am I just an idiot? O_O Either way thanks!!!
I'll let everyone know how it goes.
1. Get the LGNPST Package with the GenericModels and Components Plug-In.
http://www.multiupload.com/UT7I7O2MNZ
2. Get the driver for the phone and install it
http://www.multiupload.com/QELZ4SJ5U4
3. Get the Stock Rom TOT file and extract it.
POSTED ABOVE
4. Get the DLL file specifically for the Revolution
http://www.multiupload.com/0AJEFUHVID
5. Extract the "LGNPST Store & Lab"
I have everything but number 4. What do I do about the DLL, is this something I need?

Yeah that DLL is a must have. I have it at home and would be able to upload it but not for a couple hours cuz I'm at work. You can try Google but I can't promise that you'll find it.

Thanks!!

It may just be an issue with Firefox. Juggernuts was able to download it without issue.

ok so i got started with internet explorer quick question how big is the .tot file??? and then is the dll specific or is it universal with v7?
Three things:
1. I was able to open up that .dll with 7zip. if you right click and try to open with 7zip it wont work. Open 7zip and navigate to the zip, then extract it.
2. You'll have to download the .tot (and possibly the .dll) under IE. The .tot file is 637 megs.
3. The .DLL seems to be universal. Once you open it with 7zip it's the exact same size of the link he gave. I'm 53% into the upgrade so I'll let you know if everything went ok.
EDIT: added a third
Everything worked. Installing Gingervolt 1.3!!!!

(Q)Browser downloads

I've tried downloading stuff from the stock browser and other browsers and when I go into my downloads on my phone the file is corrupt. I even checked to see if it was the program by trying to open it on my computer and I got the same result. Does anybody know anything about this or anything?
Where is your download location? I'm not totally sure why unless whatever your downloading isn't compatible with your phone.
Sent from my VS910 4G using xda premium
The normal download location. Haven't changed it at all. Also, I'm just download a zip file it seems to happen with every file I try.
If the same file is not working on your computer then wouldn't it be the file or did I miss understand your question and statement
The file works on my computer if I download it on my computer. If I download it on my phone then try to open with an app or through usb on my computer it says the file is corrupt. So pretty much saying if I download from phone it's corrupt, download from computer it's fine.
Which other browsers have you tried? I recommend the dolphin browser if you haven't already tried it.

What kind of file is it what are you trying to do
I'm actually using Dolphin Browser. Every other file works fine but .zip files it seems. And the files I tried where Pokemon roms (trying to relieve childhood). But I know the files work since a couple of my friends have downloaded them from their phones and unzipped them on their phones. But my one friend he had a different situation where his would download as a .bin file when it's a .zip file.

Can't find the Nook HD downloads file

I have a Nook HD and have downloaded a file that is very large and is slowing down my device. I want to download it and I can't find the download file to even get to undownload it. I don't even know if that's where I'm supposed to go. I don't even know if I CAN undownload the file. Help? Please?
