Android Question [Solved] firebase image download problem

[AymanA]

Hi All,

I have code to download the firebase image, and it was working well with the same code for two days, for some reason today I have started to receive errors, I have searched everywhere but can not find out what might be the problem.

Sub DownloadAndSaveFile (Link As String) As ResumableSub
    Dim j As HttpJob
    j.Initialize("", Me)
    j.Download(Link)
    Wait For (j) JobDone(j As HttpJob)
    If j.Success Then
        Dim out As OutputStream = File.OpenOutput(File.DirInternal, "FCMphoto.png", False)
        File.Copy2(j.GetInputStream, out)
        out.Close
        
    End If
    j.Release
    Return Null
End Sub

ResponseError. Reason: java.net.SocketTimeoutException: failed to connect to lh3.googleusercontent.com/xxx.xxx.x.x (port 443) from /xxx.xxx.xx.xx (port 43085) after 30000ms, Response:

i suggest to copy the file to your server and use your serverurl.
Or better directly add it to your files-folder. no need to download a file.

Maybe you are blacklisted?

What is the full url to the image?

Thank you so much for your help and suggestion.

Will definitely keep into consideration to save it internally, rather than download every time!

Seems I am not blacklisted as I can see the image through the URL: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/AOh14GhytMXhqyx0G0NsLCDIkS1lJls0xBMhG9TuQQG5=s96-c

Today it is working with no problem with the exact same code! so seems it was google problem or something else I am not aware of!

Thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it.
