Chrome (for Android) can't download attachments?

If anyone can check this it would be great.

Latest Google Chrome on Android can't download any files from attachments here, it works fine on RC2, but here AFAIK you have some newer version from git. I checked it on my forum, on SP forum (just to be sure that it's not my phone ::)) and and it works fine there. Here I get error that file cannot be downloaded.

Firefox for Android does not have this issue.

hmm... I tried to use Chrome on the android VM I have, but I can't run it, so I'm out of luck on that one...

I don't remember any change that would affect downloads, but I can't be sure.

Can you see the images thumbnails?
And if you click on the image what happens? Something different than when you click on the download link?

Can you try with the two attachments here?
Just to try some different kind of attachment.

Also, apart from the preview, could you try this link and see the result?

Okay, that looks like the header if not recognised for some reason.

And the link I posted? Same result?

A simple hint from me .. look at SMF 2.1 code .. download works perfect  ;D

Found the error in BB and applied a fix here, it fixed it for my Nexus tab so please give it a try and see if it fixes it for other droid devices as well.
