Fenix: [Bug] (regression) it's no longer possible to download anything

[cadeyrn]

Steps to reproduce

1. Try to download something: apk file, image file, whatever

Expected behavior

It works.

The download fails. It's a regression from the last AC update to 56.0.20200821184.

logcat output when trying to download something:

Looks like a regression, let's add it to the sprint @kglazko

Actually it looks like the download succeeds, fenix just reports it as failed. I can find the downloaded file in the file manager.

@Amejia481 Did anything downloads-related land in that last AC update?

Actually it looks like the download succeeds, fenix just reports it as failed. I can find the downloaded file in the file manager.

The file is in fact downloaded but, for images at least, it's not listed in my file manager under Downloads, Images, Recent files, etc. or even in the Gallery app. I had to navigate through the file system tree (Internal storage > Downloads) to find it.

That's probably unrelated, see

Thanks for reporting the issue, indeed is a regression from https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/pull/8152, sorry about that.

As @miDeb mentioned downloads are getting downloaded but the UI it's not showing the right status, this PR contains the fix https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/pull/8197, but as it has a larger scope will take longer to review. I'm putting a separate pr for addressing the issue.

[Amejia481]

This pr will address the issue https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/pull/8203, sorry about the inconveniences.

This should be in the Nightly build on 8/26, so putting a QA flag for that.

Hi all,
I was able to download different types of files: .avi, .mp3, .zip, .jpg, on the latest Nightly build from 8/26 with Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 (Android 9), and Sony Xperia Z5 Premium (Android 7.1.1).
I'll remove the label and close this as verified.
