VirturalBox with Android 4.0.4

[BBsen]

Hi, I managed to run Android 4.0.4 on VB, I would like to know how can I download files via android apps in VB and save it to my PC harddisk?

Seems the files downloaded within the Andriod system is stored in the vitural space... just couldn't figure where to find these downloads in my harddisks.

Thanks in advance.

The files are stored on the virtual PC. The only way another PC (e.g. your host) can access these is if you set up a networking connection from your Android VM to the outside world. I have no Android experience and can't tell you how to do that - no doubt there are Android forums which could. You may also find something in the "Other Guests" forum on this site if you search.

Android is not a supported guest OS in VirtualBox, hence there are no special features provided which make this easier. In particular there are no Guest Additions.

You need an Apps with network access, which could be 'File Expert' that can access Windows via SMB, or an FTP server on either the host or guest. The Android developing tool also has a built-in feature for accessing the Android system.
