This is also reproduced in Fenix on some devices.

(In reply to Mihai Adrian Carare [:mcarare] from comment #2)

This is also reproduced in Fenix on some devices.

In that case, I'll move this bug from the Focus::General components to Fenix::Downloads.

On further investigation, this is not device dependent, but it only occurs when HTTPS only is enabled, and the initial download request is made on a website that does not support HTTPS and needs pressing the option "continue to HTTP site" in order to initiate the download.
When the download is resumed and after pausing it fails with:

GeckoConsole: E [JavaScript Error: "HTTPS-Only Mode: Upgrading insecure request “https://ipv4.download.thinkbroadband.com/512MB.zip” failed. (M6-C14)"]

The same STR also causes a download failure in the desktop app with HTTPS-only enabled.
