[Q] Files downloading as .txt

---

When I try to download .apk or .zip files (possibly other types of files too, just haven't tried other types) from the phone browser they will save as .txt files instead. I noticed this while downloading the decrapped 1.1 and clockwork recovery files. Has anyone else had any problems with downloads on the Revo? Maybe it's just files that are downloaded from fileshare, megaupload, ect.?

I tried the fixes for other phones (i.e. using download crutch), but those seem to only work when the phone won't allow a dl at all. Doesn't help when files download as .txt (just changing the extension wouldn't work either, 1.2mb files would download as 8kb).

I know using Dolphin for decrap using goofiles , I think that is what it is called, I had to change the user agent to Android.

I had that problem with the stock browser as well. Even with dolphin. Ultimately I like dolphin for browsing, but if I need to d/l a file, I fire up the link in opera mobile and get it.

Is goofiles an add on for the Dolphin browser or can you use it with any browser? I've tried the dolphin browser on two seperate occasions, and could never bring myself to stick with it. I felt like it was too cumbersome. I wish I could get the droid stock browser back, it was clean and simple.

I also would prefer not to deal with the hassle of using two different browsers if at all possible. If there's no known fix for the stock lg browser, anyone know if you can port the stock from the droid 1? I saw a couple sites with the apk, but not sure if it would be compatible. I'd like to get one, but I'm at work with no way to dl one to try it out.
