The url Tor was downloaded from is guardianproject.info/apps/orbot
direct download(.apk).  I tried doing so again after your response.  The
tablet operating system indicated it had downloaded, -- but it had not. If
it is still on the droid hard drive, how do I find it? Is there a search
function as in Windows?
... Kindly be advised, I did get rid of all the google and other
commercial apps on the tablet earlier after Tor would not properly
download.  Every one I could find.  Are any of these apps required by the
droid to download Orbot? -- Will not download from the google store since
they demand registration and do track. The ISP does not appear to be a
factor since it is public, a coffee shop. Have had no problems downloading
Tor updates to Windows machines there.  The droid I'm trying to download
Tor to is a tablet, not a phone.  Thanks for your help.  libertyinperil
