Still working now?

I was looking for parameter the true download booster on my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 6.0.1 , but I didn't find something and I'm falling on this thread.

The problems of the true download booster is only for files superior at 30mb, so Netflix, some games doesn't use it because they download a lot of smaller files...

Can we fix that with your app?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
This app is for standalone file downloads only. See the second post for the FAQ.
[Android Apps and Games] raybonz420:
No links for members anymore? I don't mind paying. I just wanted to try it on my pixel XL before I pay for it.
[Android Apps and Games] Jadelor:
Might wanna skip because it's been pretty erratic on recent Android versions.
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
I'm sorry but I have been unable to maintain it.

On the play market there is a "trial" version you can use, to check if it works on your phone.
[Android Apps and Games] Androdiver:
It just amazing that this app is still working on my device though its saying its made for older version of androids, thanks ?
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
thanks!

unfortunately it doesn't work on all versions and roms, but I'm happy it's still useful to someone :)

[Android Apps and Games] elban:
For example a chart showing the download speed of the two networks vs time. Or some other eye candy :-)
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
Tried the new version now

Still same, but this time it says 'Failed' and later if i again click the same link to retry then it says no file

When added link manually using add url option it shows 'Failed'

I am out of station hence cannot give logcat

What to do now?

[Android Apps and Games] sandy_tea:
Ah I see..but I think it will be better to show the notification when downloading especially when super download is running in the background in the next update..

At least it is useful for me, as it will be annoying if u can download multiple files but when u press back button to go to browser for example and u can't see the downloading progress. As for the visual tweaks it can be done some other time when u have ur time, don't u think so?

So my suggestion will be:

1. Notification

2. Multiple file download

3. Visual tweaks

Of course the decision is yours.

Thanks for this super application anyway..

P.S : Won't it be better if u show the creating file visualize since I believe u design this app to build the file downloaded before for faster download right? That's why some people said it doesn't work since the can't see what it does before downloading.

Correct me if I'm wrong.
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
There must be something seriously wrong, it looks like it just can't connect at all.

Surely there is some exception and stack trace that can help understanding, please take a logcat when you can. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Just to have an idea of what's happening, could you install an app like aLogcat, and have a glance at the log? That would be great! :-)
[Android Apps and Games] Not Again:
Sounds Awesome, but does it work?
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
What if I give u complete log?

Using terminal emulator with this command?

logcat > /sdcard/log.txt

Though it will be big and will have unnecessary things

So can you search within that?

Burned from my laser torch using pencil cells
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Thanks!

So, a vote for notifications :-)

About file creation, the program creates some temporary files in another folder while it downloads. Then the full file is built from those, and put in the usual download folder.

That's why you can't see anything until it finishes. I could create an empty file, sort of a placeholder, but it looks bogus to me.
[Android Apps and Games] -juanito-:
how i can download from RapidShare or HotFile using this app ??
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Sites like rapidshare do not support multi threaded clients. They don't want you to have more than one active download at a time. So it would defeat the purpose of this application.

It is possible that, with some tweaks specific to the site, and maybe the need of a premium account, it would work. That would need a lot of time, though :-\
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Why don't you just try it and report what you find out? :-)
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Yes that's fine, thanks!

Use pm or email.
[Android Apps and Games] Saketme:
Thanks, I'm downloading the app, will let you know of my impressions :)

I've been using AndroGet till now but it is too buggy.
[Android Apps and Games] mafiarock93:
i also have this problem,seem cant download with miui stock browser@@
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Does it work if you copy and paste the url into the application?

Does that browser have "long click on link, share with"?
[Android Apps and Games] mafiarock93:
nope,can u put auto download when we get link?
[Android Apps and Games] cc101:
Epic? Are you kidding me, you need a reality check buddy.
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Depends on the browser: sometimes they just want to download by themselves :-)

The app does what it can to intercept the url, but sometimes it's just not possible.

In these cases, you need to trigger the download by yourself, using "share with" or pasting the url.
[Android Apps and Games] mafiarock93:
ok tks a lot^^,i understand what u say,keep up your great work
[Android Apps and Games] elban:

- notifications

- activated download of audio and video files

- downloads restarting without reason should be fixed now
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
are notifications working fine for you?

I think there is a little problem with the icon in the initial ticker.
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
0.7

- lite version with 50mb file size limit (for play store)

- update notification ticker when download is finished

- misc fixes
[Android Apps and Games] -BioHaZard-:
I don't know if you are aware but the market links are not working.

---------- Post added at 12:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:23 PM ----------

I will install the XDA version and test though :D
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
Hey elban

I am back to test :D

Tried latest version and still it shows failed as soon as it captures link :(
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
:-\

could you paste a logcat please?

many thanks for testing! :)
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
thanks!

market takes a bit to update, the links should be working now (at least I see them working, may not be like this for everybody yet).
[Android Apps and Games] -BioHaZard-:
Yeah all links are working now :good:.
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
Here you go :D

http://db.tt/b5bFz6yw

I know the log is very big but thats all I could do from my phone

But to help you more, you can find it in range of 10:40 pm to 10:50pm :)

I hope you can fix the bug :)
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Many thanks!

Looks like it's always failing when trying to resolve the host name.

A couple of questions: could you post a sample url that's failing, and could you try with a numeric host?

Thanks again and good night!
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
Here is the url I am trying which fails

http://charlie.d-h.st/pox?key=1343437365

It is direct link to my new tool(check my signature :D)

Can you give me a link with numeric host?
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Here it is:

http://

62.94.159.69/images/veniceone.jpg

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
Still same :(

Still fails with numeric host :(
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Picture me puzzled :-O

Same url works for me...

As soon as I have some free time, I'm going to add some debugging info to better understand what's happening...
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Could you try this debug build:

http://db.tt/j66RDNn6

It has additional debug messages and some little fixes.

Many thanks :)
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
Yayyy!!!!!!!

You are excellent!!

Freak!....Its working!!!!

So now should I start giving suggestions to you for new version? :D :D
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
---Bugreport---

1. I added a file to download manually it started and completed with no problem but when it started, in notification bar it showed only icon but when it completed it showed Download finished. So pls add Download Started text also :)

2. There is force close- how to replicate- Start a download and let it complete and go to app and then go to settings, now pull down notification bar and select the download notification and then there will be a force close.

3. I was unable to cancel a download i.e when I clicked cancel it didnt cancel it and I had to force stop the app

4. The refresh rate of download status is very very low. Please increase it, it should update speed and progress every second(or every half second will be cherry on icecream :D like IDM for PC)

5. It should keep record of whatever it downloaded in History like IDM for PC

6. Pause/Resume support :)
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Wow I got it hehehe!

Yes of course please give your suggestions :)

Technically: I suspect some phones might use different names for the wifi and/or mobile data interfaces. In that case, dual networks will probably fail. Could you post your device interface names? You can get them by using a program like quick system info or on command line (for example with ip addr show when they are connected).
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
done!

should be fixed

can't reproduce this bug...

currently it updates when a chunk is received, that's why it updates more often when "big chunks" is disabled.

I've put in my todo list a note to update more often, while donwloading the chunks.

I'll do this along with multiple files (the two features share a lot of code)

already in todo list :)

I've updated the debug build at the same url, so you can check: http://db.tt/j66RDNn6

many thanks for the suggestions!!!
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
Yes :D

Everything is fixed now :)

Now I think you can release 0.8 version officially and remove it from Beta as it is pretty stable now :)

I will be waiting for 0.9 version with pause/resume support, download history and fast refresh rate :D

Pls post here if you need any testing.

I will be happy to do that :D

Thanks :D
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
0.8

- little fixes which should prevent some startup crashes

- little fix and debugging code added for network interface detection

- added download start notification ticker
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Since I added some network interface debugging code, please post logcats, so I can have a look at what different hardware reports. thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] patriotaki:
where does save the files? and what folders does it create on the sd card?
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
It downloads in default download folder :)
[Android Apps and Games] patriotaki:
thanks. but I found some strange folders in my sdcard like "lazylist" and some other dtrange folders dunno if its from this app that where created ..can anyone confirm it?
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
The only folder it creates is "SuperDownload" which is used for temporary files. Don't know about the other folders you are mentioning, sorry.
[Android Apps and Games] ingenious247:
Will test this tonight, cool app
[Android Apps and Games] patriotaki:
okay thanks and congratz for ur app its great I downloaded faster with it an 87mb file than original downloader
[Android Apps and Games] supermario3:
Is this stable enough? Does it work for download Linux distro like ubuntu?
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Please tell me if it is on your device :)

It should work as long as it's a valid http url (no torrent (yet), for examnple) and the web server doesn't limit multiple connections.
[Android Apps and Games] strtkempo:
Such a great idea always wondered if this was possible. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
I did some examinations of the app and spotted some bugs

--------Bugreport-----------

1. When download is in progress and if we turn off data connection then it shows Download Finished whereas it actually fails due to data connection disconnection

So you can add separate code for failure detection and show appropriate ticker of Download failed in 0.9 version :)

2. See the below bug , see how it is overlapped, pls fix that too :)

3. When download fails then pls also add code to wipe temporary files it creates because it doesnt remove them when download fails :)

--------Suggestions---------

1. Ability to restart download

2. Ability for multiple downloads

3. Inbuilt browser to download files from file sharing sites like Rapidshare, mediafire etc

4. Ability to Queue downloads.

Thanks :)
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Hello!

Many thanks for the usual excellent bug report!

I've updated the debug build with the fixes: http://db.tt/j66RDNn6

1. fixed

2. fixed

3. I thought it was better to keep the temporary files because they'll be useful when I make the "resume broken download" function. Anyway they are deleted when a new download starts.

About the suggestions: 1 and 2 are already on my todo list, 4 is added now. 3 I'm not sure I'm going to do it, because it would need a lot of work and debugging and will need to be updated often, in order to keep up with the changes the various download sites make. It all depends on how much time I can dedicate to superdownload ;)

thanks a lot and have a nice weekend!
[Android Apps and Games] patriotaki:
where can we find updates?
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
use the debug build at the link in the previous post, or wait a bit for the updated official release :)
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
The debug build fixes all reported bugs but regarding bug 3 you are right

You can re-add that part of code when you release stable 0.9 build, it will be needed to resume downloads

I have noticed few more bugs

--------bugreport--------

1. When there is no download folder in sd card then app doesnt build temp files into single file..lol..and temp files are as they are

2. I tried downloading a apk file and when download completed and when I clicked open then it opened Adobe Reader instead of redirecting me to Package Installer lol

---------Suggestions---------

1. Taking into consideration bug 1 I think the app should use its own folder to store downloaded files like all download managers do

2. When we open the app, we see No file and an empty progress bar. So instead of that you can add a empty screen with this written at centre "Tap here to add downloads" and when we tap there it should open dialog box where we can paste our urls inshort open the same dialog box as for Add URL option, this way it will look more clean and tidy

3. Ability to choose number of concurrent download threads

4. I think you should put a Changelog option in About section, nowadays all apps have this option and it has become a style :D

5 Ability to view those concurrent download threads like this app named Faster Downloads
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
When can we expect new version? :D

I mean the v0.9 with all suggestions fulfilled :D

Any ETA?
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Hello!

I've updated the debug build with a good number of fixes and little improvements. If it works well, it will be 0.9

About your report:

Bugs:

1. Never tested without a download folder, I supposed an android device can't come without, I will create it if missing.

2. Try the new debug build, should now work.

Sugs:

1. I suspect using a different folder will confuse people.

2. I will need to redesign the layout for multiple files, then it will be like you say ;)

3. The initial idea was that the app could automatically determine the best number of threads, but I understand that the option of manually selecting the number is cool :)

4. I find it redundant: there already is in the market updates section

5. That's pretty cool, falls into the bells and whistles I'll do after the big step of "multiple files"

Many thanks again for your big support!
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
Now works completely fine :D

Then we can expect pause/resume support, faster refresh rate and multiple downloads in v1.0 right?

Do let me know when you are ready, I will surely test the beta build of v1.0 :)

Regarding suggestion 4 I dont think it will be reductant because most apps have it now and it is known to be in category of ICS Styled feature.
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
Found some more glitches

1. When downloading a file, it says Finishing instead of Downloading

2. See this

Can you take the progress bar little down?

It looks little messed up.
[Android Apps and Games] droidface:
excuse me

i don't get it

what does it mean by "using wifi and mobile data at the same time"

my phone can't use wifi and mobile data at the same time :/
[Android Apps and Games] Tilgi:
If it could there would be no need for such a software ;)
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
0.9

- fixed an FC when filename had no extension

- added "download failed" notification ticker

- fixed notification text overflow

- fix for url without path

- add url text now using correct type (for better soft keyboard use)

- fixed "restart download when launched from history" again

- get file name from http header when available

- get mime type from http header for better file type recognition

- create download folder if needed
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
hello!

1. hehe it says that because all the threads are downloading the last segments... pretty hugly, I will fix it :)

2. I will replace the customed layout notification with the standard one, it will look much prettier then!

many thanks again for all the debugging!

But it keeps crashing.
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Could you post a logcat please?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] GerBBAR14_c:
Yes, I'll do that!!

Now the app actually somehow broke the entire downloading capabilities of the phone; I uninstalled it ane have not been able to download anything since. The Internet works, though.

---------- Post added at 01:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 AM ----------

Have to take my worsa back. The app still crashed, but the downloading errors were due to too less space for the files I tried.

Bugs:

-Crashing

-Cancelling a download doesn't remove it from the list (dunno if it should!!)

Recommendations:

-The second one above

-An error message if the download stops

Great work!! Do you still want a logcat?

Has anyone tested this with cloud links such as Dropbox? How about through the app itself?

I assume no because it works through browser but using this ability to download from a Dropbox app would be great.

Thanks

wish this would work on stuff for not downloading like youtube, faster google play download,faster data speeds
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Hello,

could you try a small file and see if it crashes? the app needs at least double the file size in free sdcard space to download it.

I will add better error checks for free space.

Many thanks for reporting!
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
that's weird, the apk itself is pretty simple.

did you try the lite version from market?
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
you can download dropbox files using the "copy link link" feature of dropbox, but not directly because it only supports http url at the moment.
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
That would need heavy modifications to the mentioned apps and/or to android itself.

That's why I wrote a download application myself :)

Yes it should work on 4g as well, but since I do not have a device to test it, I need people feedback :)

Could you post a logcat please?
[Android Apps and Games] E:V:A:
Brilliant Idea and App! (I have not tested it yet, but will soon.)

I'm surprised why someone didn't implemented this years ago. Multihreaded and multi-device, concurrent network connections...

Good Luck!
[Android Apps and Games] TheHighlightGuy:
The old one (alogcat.2012-08-08-16-28-29-0500.txt) is right after I failed to be able to initiate a download

The newer one is right after a successful download.

Hope this helps and I'll be happy to provide as many logcats as you need! lol
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Thanks for the logcats!

The old one doesn't seem to have any super download log entries.

The new one does, and it shows a problem with getting the correct interface name for mobile connection.

Could you paste your interfaces, using a program like quick system info? I need to know the name of the 4g interface (for example the wifi interface is named "wlan0").

Again thanks and cheers!
