What's new
- Manual download no longer hangs
- The "Manual Download" button opened a WebView on the book's mirror. Libgen mirrors hand out get. php links, which answer with a redirect to a CDN file (Content-Disposition: attachment). Android's WebView hands that to its download listener instead of loading a page, so the "Preparing download..." overlay never went away.
- Direct file links now go straight to the download manager, so libgen books start downloading immediately. - When a WebView download starts (Z-Library's / d1/ hop, a resolved CDN URL), that URL is used as the download link. - The blocking overlay now gives up after 60 seconds and says so, instead of waiting forever. - A late page load can no longer close the book page underneath after the overlay has already returned.
