I am quite flummoxed. I am aware that Android is requesting and receiving a GZipInputStream, and I can see the input stream's type in the debugger, but that seems irrelevant to my issue.
Caching of web server chains can be very elaborate. See for example here: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html 14.9 Cache-Control So eventually setUseCache() to false can help, but might slowdown your requests. It could be also an issue on the server side, that for example the server emits a wrong "Expires" header, this header is also described in the above RFC. If you re-access the same file multiple times and if you can remember the modified date, then the setIfModifiedDate() comes very handy. If the data on the server doesn't have a newer modified date, you will get: HTTP_NOT_MODIFIED = 304; Bye -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
