DownloadManager Not Working On Android Q - Android/Java
I am stuck. I have searched and searched and tried many many things let me try to summarize.
I am trying to download a file using the Download Manager on Android 10, also known as Andriod Q.
Here is the code I am using. I have tried http and https. I have added clear text flags. I have tried setDestinationInExternalFilesDir and also setDestinationInExternalPublicDir but neither work. setDestinationInExternalFilesDir does create a folder inside the Android/data directory for my application. It has no files inside the folder.
try
{
isStoragePermissionGranted();
Log.e(TAG, "*** STARTING DOWNLOAD MANAGER ***");
Uri uri = Uri.parse("http://HaveTriedManyDifferentWebServers.com/filename.jpg");
DownloadManager.Request request = new DownloadManager.Request(uri);
request.setTitle("downloading");
request.setDescription("Downloading a file");
request.addRequestHeader("Accept", "image/jpg");
request.setDestinationInExternalFilesDir(this, "", "filename.jpg");
//request.setDestinationInExternalPublicDir(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS, "filename.png");
DownloadManager downloadManager = (DownloadManager) getSystemService(Context.DOWNLOAD_SERVICE);
downloadManager.enqueue(request);
Log.e(TAG, "*** ENDING DOWNLOAD MANAGER ***");
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Log.e("ERRRRORRRRRRRRR", e.toString());
}
I have added the permissions
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
I have checked to make sure I have write permissions. It returns "Permission is granted"
public boolean isStoragePermissionGranted() {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
if (checkSelfPermission(android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
== PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
Log.v(TAG,"Permission is granted");
return true;
} else {
Log.v(TAG,"Permission is revoked");
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, 1);
return false;
}
}
else { //permission is automatically granted on sdk<23 upon installation
Log.v(TAG,"Permission is granted");
return true;
}
}
Why is this so difficult to do in java?
Why doesnt this return an error message?
Here is the log

Also, I can see on the server side that the file is not even being requested. I have also used random images on google and and my own web server but neither work. From my server logs it appears that this android app is not even getting to the web server. I am able to copy/paste the URL into a browser on the phone and verify that it can successfully communicate with the web server.
EDIT:
I do have the requestLegacyExternalStorage="true" in the manifest
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

The http protocol is not allowed on Android 10 unless you request clear text traffic in manifest file.
For getExternalFilesDir() you do not need read/write permissions in manifest file nor request legacy for them. Also no code needed at run time.
blackappsI ran into the same problem, and finally I found out that I should use setDestinationUri() instead of setDestinationInExternalPublicDir()
And one more thing: android Q don't support Http, Use Https instead.
Below is my code:
DownloadManager.Request request = new DownloadManager.Request(Uri.parse(url));
request.setAllowedNetworkTypes(Request.NETWORK_WIFI);
request.setNotificationVisibility(Request.VISIBILITY_VISIBLE);
request.setTitle("download");
request.setDescription("apk downloading");
request.setAllowedOverRoaming(false);
request.setDestinationUri(Uri.fromFile(new File(context.getExternalFilesDir(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS) + "/foo/", "111.apk")));
long downloadID = downloadManager.enqueue(request);
