Can you send me the link please? I tried a bunch of uploadrar files including from tiktok releases and they all worked. You can PM me the link.

The releaser posted the wrong format link. I changed the URL and now it works: https://www.mediafire.com/file/2kfixmb0 ... 9.cbz/file (file_premium in the URL needed to be replaced with file).

I can confirm intermittent problems with rapidgator links. Here a 4 screenshots with "Empty reply from server":

Clicking on the blue arrow again usually works. Sometimes you have to click multiple times for it to work. Sometimes it works straight away without an error message. The errors started happening a few days ago.

It would be nice if this could be looked into.

I'll look into it, but I think this is just an intermittent issue with Rapidgator. We've had Rapidgator as a supported filehost for over five years now and this is the first time I'm seeing these errors, it's probably already being worked on from their side.

I say it's totally worth it, downloads are basically instant on my Firefox browser. Thank you, team mobilism!

The blue arrows are visible to anyone who is logged in, regardless of whether or not you have a Premium subscription.

1. make sure "Display Premium Downloader" is set to Yes Here (at the bottom).
2. make sure you don't have javascript disabled in your browser
3. check if an adblocker is blocking our javascript from running (such as NoScript). Make sure neither mobilism.org nor mblservices.org is blocked by your adblocker. If you're using NoScript, make sure to allow full site.
4. if you're using Chrome, try disabling its built in pop-up blocker
5. if you're located in the United Arab Emirates, see This
6. if you're located in Australia and using Telstra, you need to turn off TELSTRA Broadband Protect
7. if you're located in the Philippines, the Premium Downloader might be blocked. You can use a VPN to go around this.

One way to test what the problem could be is using a browser different from the one you typically use, without plugins and where javascript should be enabled (it's enabled by default in browsers). If you think your ISP is blocking it, you can test what happens while using a VPN.

If you need further assistance, please PM me and I'll help you troubleshoot.

The Premium Downloader successfully downloads a file, HOWEVER the downloaded file is much smaller than either the Mobilism posting or skyve.io (who agree) say it should be: 27MB vs 426MB:

Code: Select all~/Downloads

I've downloaded the same 27MB file twice using PD.

I am currently attempting a download (of the 426MB version) of this file from skyve.io, but it (and its peer fikper.com) is an unpleasant site to interact with, and the free skyve.io download is much slower than the Premium Downloader.

Help please?

Hi there,

I'm not part of the mobilism team, but I can confirm the issue for this link and can share what I have observed.

When the premium downloader is used for a link, it connects to the filehost, retrieves the name and checks if the name is in the cache. If it's not found, it downloads the file from the remote filehost, stores a copy of the downloaded file in a cache, and then sends the file to the browser of the user. You see a progress bar while the premium downloader retrieves the file from the filehost.

If the premium downloader finds that the filename is contained in the cache, it will return the cached copy, which is why the download is really fast, independent of .the used filehost. You will see no progress bar in this case.

It can happen, that an error occurs while the premium downloader retrieves a file from the filehost. Unfortunately, the premium downloader is currently not able to detect this error, and stores whatever it has retrieved from the filehost, before the error occurred in the cache. Thus any subsequent press on the blue arrow will return the truncated/corrupted file from the cache.

It can also happen that the premium downloader stores the "wrong" file in the cache. If, for example, the site contains two postings, one for and epub and one for an audiobook, and both links happen to have the same filename, e.g. sample.rar, then the file from whichever link is used first with the premium downloader will be stored in the cache and returned for both postings. This happens very rarely.

There are only two solutions for a user in this case. Either manually download the file from one of the filehosts, which is what you are doing. The other solution is to wait until the corrupt/truncated file is removed from the cache. Not sure, how long this takes, as it probably depends on many factors. You might try again in a week.or two. The downside of this approach is, that the file might have already been deleted from the filehost, and the premium downloader will not be able to retrieve it again.

I have asked the mobilism team a few years back to implement a check if a file has been downloaded correctly from a filehost and only store those files in the cache. This would prevent truncated, corrupted files to be stored in the cache, but this seems to be a very hard task, and has, so far, not been implemented.
As a second best alternative, a button to allow a user to remove a particular file from the cache could be implemented, but this also has not been done.

All in all, the premium downloader works great in most cases and saves a lot of trouble, but care must be taken to deal with the few issues of truncated files.

Take care
