Apache FTPClient failing to download larger files

Question

I have code that connects to an FTP server and gets an input stream to a file which works wit smaller files, but doesn't work at all with larger ones. It simply returns null each time, yet when I paste the full url into a browser it works fine. Here is my FTP download code:

publishProgress("Downloading...");  
            try {

             String userName="anonymous";
              String passWord = "[email protected]";

            Pattern p = Pattern.compile("ftp://(.+?)(/.+/(.+))");
            Matcher m = p.matcher(completePathToFile);
            m.find();

              String hostPart = m.group(1);
              String port = null;
              if(hostPart.contains(":")){
                  port = hostPart.substring(hostPart.indexOf(":") + 1);
                  hostPart = hostPart.substring(0, hostPart.indexOf(":"));
              }
              String pathExcludingHostIncludingFirstSlash= m.group(2);
              fileName = URLDecoder.decode(m.group(3));

              FileOutputStream fos = null;
              java.io.BufferedOutputStream bout = null;
              InputStream myFileStream = null;
              String tempFileForZip = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() + GlobalVars.getSaveLocation(context, searchResult.getConsole()) + fileName;
              int retries = 0;

              while (myFileStream==null && retries < 100){
              try{

                boolean mkdirresult = (new File(tempFileForZip)).getParentFile().mkdirs();
                fos = new FileOutputStream(new File(tempFileForZip));
                bout = new BufferedOutputStream(fos,1024);

                   FTPclient = new FTPClient();
                   FTPclient.setListHiddenFiles(true);
                   FTPclient.connect(hostPart, port==null ? 21 : Integer.valueOf(port));
                   boolean loggedIn = FTPclient.login(userName, passWord);
                   FTPclient.setFileType(FTP.BINARY_FILE_TYPE);


                    myFileStream = FTPclient.retrieveFileStream(URLDecoder.decode(pathExcludingHostIncludingFirstSlash));
                    DataInputStream instream = new DataInputStream(myFileStream);
              } catch (Exception e){
                    retries++; 
                    if(fos!=null){fos.close();}
                     if(bout!=null){bout.close();}
                     if(myFileStream!=null){myFileStream.close();}
              } finally {}
              }
              if(myFileStream==null){
                  throw new RuntimeException("Could not connect, try again");
              }

                int updateCounter = 0;
                int bytesDownloaded = 0;
                  byte data[] = new byte[1024];
                  int x = 0;
                  while((x=myFileStream.read(data,0,1024))>=0){
                      bout.write(data,0,x);
                    bytesDownloaded+=1024;
                    updateCounter++;
                    if(updateCounter==3){
                        kilobytesDownloaded=(bytesDownloaded / 1024);
                        publishProgress("Downloading...");
                        updateCounter=0;
                    }
                  }
                  bout.close();
                  myFileStream.close();

                  if(!FTPclient.completePendingCommand()) {
                      FTPclient.logout();
                      FTPclient.disconnect();
                      Log.e("DownloadService","File transfer failed.");
                  }

I have no idea what's wrong with this. Here are two sample URLs:

ftp://173.192.209.76/120/NES%20Roms/A%20Ressha%20de%20Ikou%20(Japan).zip
ftp://94.75.253.68:9333/Gameboy%20Advance%20Roms/GBA%20Roms%201901%20-%202000/1909%20-%20Ace%20Combat%20Advance%20(U)(Venom).zip
ftp://ftp.emuparadise.org:8233/Playstation%20Demos/Metal%20Gear%20Solid%20Demo%20%5BU%5D%20%5BSLUS-90035%5D.rar

The first one works fine, the second one gets a null stream, and the third one causes the phone to freeze almost instantly, and then reboot!

The strangest thing is that I have a seperate Android app that runs this code perfectly in an Activity:

import java.io.BufferedOutputStream;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.DataInputStream;
import java.io.DataOutputStream;
import java.io.File;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
