Android download large files

I'm trying to download a large .zip file from a web server but I have a weird behaviour, the description is:

• I'm executing the code in the device emulator, API level 3 (version 1.5) with an SD card of 512MB. I start the device with "Wipe data user"
• The length of the size from conexion.getContentLength() is 7012725
• The server address is localhost (10.0.2.2), but I've tried with an external server and the behaviour is the same. I've double checked that I can download the file through a web browser.
• I have these permisions in the manifest file:

-

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></uses-permission>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"></uses-permission>

The error:

• It starts downloading the file, I can see the text 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and then it stops at 60.
• After a while, the emulator reboots itself.

Workarounds:

• This issue 开发者_JAVA百科in stackoverflow is working in the device, not in my case.

• About this wifi lock issue what I've done is add this permission "android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" and then this piece of code, but with exactly the same behaviour:

  WifiManager.WifiLock wifilock; WifiManager manager = (WifiManager) getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE); wifilock = manager.createWifiLock("wifilock"); wifilock.acquire(); ... wifilock.release();

Here is the code, that it's being executing in a separate thread:

private void downloadData(){
    try{
        Log.v(TAG, "downloading data");

        URL url  = new URL("http://10.0.2.2/1.zip");
        URLConnection connection = url.openConnection();
        connection.connect();

        int lenghtOfFile = connection.getContentLength();

        Log.v(TAG, "lenghtOfFile = "+lenghtOfFile);

        InputStream is = url.openStream();

        File testDirectory = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()+"/testDirectory/");
    if(!testDirectory.exists()){
        testDirectory.mkdir();
    }

        FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(testDirectory+"/files.zip");

        byte data[] = new byte[1024];

        int count = 0;
        long total = 0;
        int progress = 0;

        while ((count=is.read(data)) != -1)
        {
            total += count;
            int progress_temp = (int)total*100/lenghtOfFile;
            if(progress_temp%10 == 0 && progress != progress_temp){
                progress = progress_temp;
                Log.v(TAG, "total = "+progress);    
            }
            fos.write(data, 0, count);
        }

        is.close();
        fos.close();

    Log.v(TAG, "downloading finished");

    }catch(Exception e){
        Log.v(TAG, "exception in downloadData");
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

}

Any clue? Thank you very much.

Update with more log description:

Hi Chris, I've tried to discover what was going on at first with this log in the Eclipse environment. Here are a little bit more detail about what is happening (time - action), note that I've changed the file to download for another one in orther to do more tests, but the results are quite the same:

00:00 It starts downloading:
V/iPhoto  (  853): downloading data
V/iPhoto  (  853): lenghtOfFile = 7732809

V/iPhoto  (  853): total = 40
V/iPhoto  (  853): total = 50 (round 00:05)
-> Here it stops and the DDMS disconnects the device immediately

03:40 It finish the download (not always) and the device reboots on its own:

Could anyone try my code and to download a zip file with size round 8MB? Does it works for you?

I've just tried this code in a real device and it works perfectly. There must be something weird in the emulator.

The "emulator rebooting itself" does not sound good. I would recommend you start up logcat on the dev machine and log to a file... ie, on a linux dev machine something like

adb logcat | tee logfile

Then look at the logfile and see what you can learn about why it rebooted.
