> Problem is when using the FileTransfer plugin to download a file, if the file 
> is interrupted it will get automatically deleted.  It is therefor impossible 
> to implement any kind of resume logic to resume the download and one can only 
> restart from scratch.  If you are downloading on unreliable networks then 
> your chances of ever succeeding will be very poor with larger files.
> This is what happens on Android (FileTransfer.java line 948):
> // Remove incomplete download.
> if (!cached && result.getStatus() != PluginResult.Status.OK.ordinal() && file 
> != null) {
>     file.delete();
> }
> I suggest there should be an option keepIncompleteDownload that would allow 
> the partial download to be kept.  Developers could then implement their own 
> logic in Javascript to get the next part of the file using range headers and 
> concatenate the parts together to reform the whole file.
