I have a async task called within an activity:

    public class DownloadFile extends AsyncTask<String, Integer, String>{
protected String doInBackground(String... url) {

Because of that there’s some things I cannot do, one of those it’s using getApplicationContext()

There’s any way to solve this problem?

    Pass your application context in to the constructor

    public DownloadFile(Context context)
    {
        // Do fun stuff with the context, such as assign it to a class variable
    }
