Android 5 eMule client?

Post by jpf »   0 likes

I'd like to use my Android 5 Sony Xperia phone to download from eMule, mostly because my metered connection at home makes it quite expensive to download using my PC, while using my phone I can use a few free WiFi access points at places I use to go.

I tried "Free Mule for Android" by a-pablov and was unable to get it to download anything. Maybe it's a config problem (I'm quite ignorant about Android OS). The configuration seems simple and I followed all help instructions to the point. All seems to fit but it doesn't work.

I experienced these problems:
1- Upon connecting to a server (any server) it briefly shows "Connecting" but then it dosn't show the connected state anywhere, so I don't konw if it actually did connect or it didn't.
2- Touching any of the emule links on FLM brings up the app but the link isn't shown in the Transfers window or anywhere.
3- Touching "Add all links to your eMule client" I once got the first link to show in the Transfers window, but just that time; further attemps did nothing.
4- That link successfully added seems right but the Status field shows "Stalled". Touching the "Resume" menu item has no effect.
5- After closing and opening again the graphic interfase the link dissapeared from the Transfers window and I wasn't able to paste it up again by touching "Add all links to your eMule client". The app seems to stay working in the background when no GUI is shown because I had to force it to stop ("Forzar detención" in my Spanish Android OS) before unninstaling it.

I didn't try any other app on the hope of first getting some advice here.

Can any of you point out a better app? Or help configuring Free Mule? Thanks in advance !

By the way, uTorrent works just fine in my phone, even better than Direct Downloads using Chrome...
