What restriction are you talking about? I can download any file type I want on my Mez. I can also use the AndroZip app to open create, etc. any zip or rar file. What browser or antivirus apps are you using that prohibit downloading rar files?!?

I had the same problem. Although after installing androzip, I have since been able to download .rar files. If that doesn't work for you, try downloading on a different browser (ie: dolphin). Hope this helps

Im not using any app and thats what im trying to accomplish. Right now by default if you try to download say.. an .apk file or a .rar file it comes up with the message "cannot download this file content not supported" These apps you guys are using bypasses this restriction somehow, im trying to figure out how to do this without using a 3rd party app and simply change/add some settings.

Do you have your phone set to allow "unknown sources" in the app menu?
