Unable to download .zip files

[JCD_13]

There is probably a easy solution to this problem, but I haven't been able to find anything about it.. I have tried to download zip files on several occasions, and always get the message content not supported, and it wont let me download the file.. Any suggestions are very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

What do you mean download? You are trying to load an update.zip to your phone or you are trying to unzip it inside of your phone? I have not heard of anyone trying to unzip inside of the phone because that is not what the intended purpose of the zip is for. More details because you are very vague in your process.

In this case I am trying to download the super circle battery file, the update.zip file......i click to download from the link, the download doesn't initiate, and I get the message "unable to download, content not supported". If I have read correctly, the file will save to the correct location, then I can boot up in recovery mode and reinstall packages.

I wasn't aware a file manager has that functionality but using opera mini browser will allow the download of all types of files.
