I have Android 1.5 on the Cliq and don't know anything about 2.1 or 2.2 or whatever, so I'm asking this here.
I've noticed a LOT of HTTP software is stuck in the 80s. HTTP RESUME never happens-- not in Chrome (5), not in Firefox (3.6), not in IE. On Android, 3G can fail and then downloading a 200MB file might result in 170MB getting deleted off a 16GB SD card with 8GB free. I find it impossible to resume a download. Also sometimes a download file comes down with a different name due to odd counting scripts if you try to resume... but that's a secondary issue. Does the browser in 2.1 or 2.2 yet support resuming? Will it keep a half-downloaded file, and then ask the user if he wants to resume or change the file name? Store information (i.e. URI etc) about a half- downloaded file to blindly re-attempt later? If not, that's viable ... probably to file in Chrome's issue tracker first, then in Android's. Thought I'd check first. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
