Hi, I was hoping to get some help regarding, the problem in downloading Android source code. Many days have passed since this problem began, and since then, I haven’t tried to download Android’s source again. So can you help me with the following two things:
How to successfully *pause* the downloading of the Android’s source code in between [as one has to download the source using the console-only application]? How to determine what’s in those ‘tmp_pack_<some text>’ files, `n how to make use of them, like, using them in a way, which avoids, downloading *that part of* Android’s source code *which **maybe **already in those files*? Thanks, Waiting for help. On Tuesday, October 20, 2020 at 11:22:42 PM UTC+5:30 `mCT wrote: > Thanks for your reply, but allow me to state the problem in a little more > detail.
