First of all hi everyone. Love my s3 mini great phone without being massive lol. Thing is I cant find files that ive downloaded off tinternet they dont appear in the downloads app and I cant find them looking through the files. My ladyfriend has a galaxy tab 2 and hers is fine theyre all in the downloads.
Not great with these things so any help would be appreciated ta.
 
hi there, im having the same problem with you
and, have you found out the solution?
thanks a lot
 
Download winzip from google play. Scroll to downloads, this lets you unzip files if you need to and move them to different places in your phone
 
Go to your settings, then click storage. It's organized by the file type you have previously downloaded. All saved dox, pics, videos, etc will be there.
 
Check /sdcard or /storage

Maybe you have no more space on your device and downloads were cancelled?
 
Might sound dumb but i couldn't find my stuff either til i noticed i had turned my data manager off some time ago, so when i turned it back on the notification icons appeared for whatever i recently downloaded and helped me find it.
 
I'm not sure what you're looking for, but I downloaded some pics from my emails. It took me forever to figure out where they went. I found mine by bringing up my internet then clicking left of my home button (the half box with two lines) and from there I found the downloads options. Hope this maybe helps!
 
Maybe in the downloads app there can be divided by date like the photo in atchment

I have a similar problem, my friend sent me a game using the share it app, and in order for the game to work it has to be placed into the right folder, and I have no idea on android where to place it, my friends tablet has the folders "data" and "obb" but on android theres "data" and "data", wh7ch folder do I store it in
 
I also have another problem, im trying to log into my google account for the playstore and it keeps saying cant establish a reliable connection, eventhough I have a good connection, I dont knw how to fix it ... its been going on for a week or 2

Just figured this out myself.
I went to settings and then storage and by happenstance I touched the different things you'll find there like ,system memory , used spaced, cached data, miscellaneous files, available space. Yours may be different. So when I touched used spaced it opened a new page with headings like applications, pictures videos, audio, and DOWNLOADS. Yay, I finally found it. Anyway touch this and it shows you all of the downloads you've down. I hope this helps. My husband is a genius with computers but he's so smart I can't understand the way he explains stuff. He leaves gaps in the steps because to him it is self explanatory.
