[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Themes and Apps] akxak:
I have a subscription on the beam store where Aldiko offered the option to download purchased ebooks within the app.

That's why I purchased (and I wanted to support the developers as the app was good on my GT-N8000).

What about MoonReader?

If you need something fast mupdf beats all competition. The UI is kind of clunky but when it comes to speed of rendering pdf it can't be beat.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Themes and Apps] akxak:
I have MoonReader, what I missed is the direct integration of eBook stores (buying and downloading).
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Themes and Apps] akxak:
And what I do not understand is the fact that Aldiko knows about the problem but did not fix it and the app is still available for the Note 10.1 2014 in the app store.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Themes and Apps] bootx1:
I like the Mantano, the interface is nice and clean and it handles notes well other than the insistence of heavily branding exported note review sheets.

The biggest issue with Mantano is it's inability to handle pdf files. If you select text from a pdf and copy to another application or activate TTS it splits w or ds wi th l o ts of sp ace s, so it renders TTS and copy functions as useless. I wrote to Mantano as at £6.69 it's the most expensive single app I've bought, I had the following response:

" Thank you for your email. Yes we are aware of the issue that you report. It is caused by the software component (from Adobe) that we are using to parse the PDF. We are investigating fixes but we currently have nothing really satisfying. We don't let it be, we'll try to fix but it might take longer than we'd like..."

This is unacceptable as far as I'm concerned for a paid app, ezPDF can cope well with pdfs, but the interface is the equivalent of an ageing digital turd.

It does support OPDS though. Depending on where you get your books it is supported
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Themes and Apps] akxak:
Thanks for the hint... now I just need to get the part working after login (I am always sent to the web site instead of showing the content of the private section inside the app).
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Themes and Apps] akxak:
As Aldiko still just closes all support requests without answering, I contacted Google for a refund. And I got the refund.

So, as a result people should clearly thing before buying Aldiko with regard to the support policy and the behaviour in fixing bugs.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Themes and Apps] ultramag69:
I like iReader Pro, has no problems with everything I throw at it (epub, prc, mob), works well.

It is free on the p[lay store and has no ads that I've seen. Liked it from Gingerbread over Aldiko...

Give it a shot... Price is right...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Themes and Apps] kisrita:
I used to use Moon reader, but now I tend to just upload my drm free books to google play and use the play book reader. It syncs, it reads to you (with ivona voice amy, it's tolerable) and it stays in your cloud library. And it has the smoothest 3d page turn animation. I usually end up buying a Kindle ebook, use calibre plug in to dedrm in windows then convert to epub then either upload to google play on the pc, or upload it later when accessing my calibre library with the calibre companion app.

Try cool reader. Its not as fancy as others but it has more settings than any other reader. You can really adjust your reading environment. It also supports tts. I own the others but i usally use cool reader.

[Moto X Q&A] beelbeel:
Either I need help, or google now is absolutely terrible with music.

I have a bunch of music that I added to my phone using isyncr. I have tried to get google to play it, but have yet to play a song successfully using voice commands. It is half the reason that I got this phone, and it's really frustrating how bad it is. Let's use the artist Bonobo for an example. I am able to tell google now what I want to listen to, and it interprets my words successfully about 50% of the time.

If I say "Listen to Bonobo," it opens google music and says "no results found." This occurs despite the fact that it spelled it correctly and I clearly have his music.

If I say "Listen to Black Sands," it tells me that it "Couldn't prepare an instant mix, please try again."

If I saw "Listen to Know You by Bonobo," it actually says "Playing 'Know You' by Bonobo," opens google music, and then starts an instant mix with "Know Yourself" by Femi Kuti.

I was a former android user, now a former iphone user, and google now is a complete disgrace. Am I doing something wrong?
[Moto X Q&A] danger2u:
dissinstall the updates from Google play music andt try again

let me know if works
[Moto X Q&A] beelbeel:
Reverted to the factory version of google music, and these are the results.

"Listen to Bonobo" is interpreted correctly, google says "Playing Bonobo." It then just takes me to the app with that artist selected. I have tested this for multiple artists.

"Listen to Black Sands" is interpreted correctly. This is an album as well as a song, which is incredibly common. Google successfully plays the song. If I say "Listen to album Black Sands," it still plays the song. If I pick another album that is also not a track name, it just takes me to that album in google music.

"Listen to Know You," a song from a different album, just pulls up a search for "listen to know you." "Listen to know you by Bonobo" successfully plays the song. It plays this single song on repeat and nothing else.

This is an improvement, if I only ever want to listen to a single song. It also gives me the ability to tell google to pull up an artist (even if I am telling it to play that artist), at which point I can hit play myself.

Thanks for the help. I'm still extremely disappointed.
[Moto X Q&A] danger2u:
try to say the name of the album instead of the name of the song.

Inviato dal mio Nexus 4 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Moto X Q&A] beelbeel:
I did. I said "Black Sands," which is the name of both a song and an album, and I also tried "The North Borders," which is a different album. For the north borders, it clearly understands what I am saying and shows the album artwork. It doesn't actually play any music, though.
[Moto X Q&A] danger2u:
i think they need to improve a little that thing

wait for some updates
[Moto X Q&A] beelbeel:
Thanks. I'm a little pissed off that I even switched at this point. They pull you into the Moto X by talking about how you never have to use your hands. The voice recognition tool is absolute crap unless you want to search the internet. At that point, I'm just yelling at my phone to search the internet even though I can type it out.

I was really hoping to be able to use this to play music while driving.
[Moto X Q&A] emailrob:
its pretty patchy at the moment, I agree. Half the time mine searches on the web rather than opening google play. If I wanted to search on the web, i would have used that command. But when it starts with "Play..." then it should always search on GPAA.
[Moto X Q&A] beelbeel:
For what it's worth, I just asked the same question on Reddit, and somebody pointed me to a program called PlayerPro. It will recognize artists and albums successfully, but not playlists. I'm also not sure if I can tell any app to shuffle via google now.

PlayerPro is a paid app, but I might try other media player apps now that I know that different apps work/don't work differently.
[Moto X Q&A] emailrob:
Thanks, unfortunately all my music and subscription is with google music so doesn't help.
[Moto X Q&A] kewlzter:
PlayerPro Play

Hello, beelbeel

For PlayerPro, have you been able to get it to play via Google Now, without having to quit the Program?

I can get GN to recognize my speech and play any of my songs via PlayerPro, however, after asking it to play a song, i have to quit PlayerPro, (not pause, or dismiss) to get it to play any other song i ask for. if i just request without asking, it only opens the player.

To the original poster: Try asking GN to "Play" instead of "Listen". You may have a difficult accent or pitch, Try to rephrase the command. GN seems to recognize a number of ways to get what you want done. And if that fails, Rename your album to include a second or third word, so that GN doesn't confuse the song, and the album.

GL

I reccomend you get this PlayerPro program, they have a free trial. it's great. It will allow you to rename, your files, and albums. try it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] OprahStoleMyKFC:
So I flashed a rom called SlimKat, didn't like it, and tried to flash back to stock. Before though I used TriangleAway to clear my binary counter. I noticed it download mode that it says the following

PRODUCT NAME: SGH-I747

CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: NO

CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL

SYSTEM STATUS: OFFICIAL

QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE

WARRANTY BIT: 1

BOOTLOADER AP SWREV: 2

and after I attempt to flash something with Odin, it will say below the bootloader thing

SW REV CHECK FAIL: FUSED 2> BINARY 0

When I try to boot regularly it gets passed the first Samsung logo, but it will get stuck at the first SlimKat logo screen.

I've tried everything that worked every other time I've bricked my phone, but this time I guess it's different. I also currently have CWM recovery if that helps anything. Also, my microSD card doesn't work anymore, but I should be getting a new one soon, just in case i can put a rom on there and flash it from CWM. Any suggestions, or should I just send it in at this point?

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] amg212:
Here's something of an oddball question - I'm trying to figure out whether this is an issue with my device in general, the ROM I'm using, WM5, or my car...

Anyway...

I'm currently using a Cingular 8125 flashed with the 2.17 ROM that's been posted here. My car's bluetooth is the Acura HandsFreeLink system (preinstalled).

The problem I'm running into is simply this...

When I'm on a call and I receive a call waiting notification (which causes the number of the second incoming call to be displayed on my car kit), pressing the appropriate button in the car causes the device to switch to the second call BUT the call then gets transferred back to my handset.

I can't duplicate the issue using a bluetooth headset or by using another brand phone with my car.

Has anyone seen anything like this either with the Acura/Honda setup or with another bluetooth kit? Anything that can be done on my device to resolve the problem?

Thanks in advance!

I'm wondering why anyone of you great rom builders and kernel builders aren't using aroma installer on your roms? It would be lot easier to install them:D
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orkane1989:
I know a few devs ditched it in order to save space for there ROMs. So instead of downloading a 300mb+ ROM with aroma its cut down to around 150mb. I think they may have done this in regards to whichever hosting site they use and whether there is a bandwidth limit on downloads or not. But I'm not 100% sure.

Back in the day when android devices had more buttons than just volume and power you used to be able to boot straight to the recovery by using power and home (thinking back to my old HTC hero) but those days are long gone
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
HTC desire had plenty of buttons, but you had to vol down + Power to hboot (bnootloader) and from there you got to fastboot or recovery.

My S3 had fewer buttons (volume, power and home). That was volume down + power for download mode (Samsung equivalent to fastboot) and volume up + power to recovery. It all just depends on the phone and oem.

Dear Community,

I've bricked my HTC One by trying to install a custom rom. The device is Rooted but S-ON. HBOOT is 1.54 Unlocked BL

I spent about 7 hours trying to get out of the brick but with no success.

The following problems are making it difficult

- I cant use ADB since i am confined to the bootloader or the Recovery

- In CW Recovery I am unable to mount USB,,SD Card or System Partitions in custom Recovery (there seems to be a bigger problem in the partitions, somehow I managed to mess these up as well)

- I tried installing RUU but it fails in the middle of the process

- I can"t get S-OFF since the ADB is not working

- The Device has a base version of 2.xx so I can't flash the older RUUs I assume

- I don"t know which exact RUU version i can use to Flash via Fastboot.

With the limited tools that are at my disposal, how can i unbrick the phone?

I would really appreciate if someone could provide me with the exact steps to get this thing working again. I know, I messed up and made some stupid mistakes but I am sure as hell sorry for it !!

Thanks everyone!

How To Get Windows 8.1 To Recognise USB Mass Storage On Your Phone​

I have had the problem for ages that when I connected my Samsung Galaxy GT-S5360 into my Windows 8.1 PC nothing happened - Windows 8.1 simply refused to recognise the device - not even anything in device manager - nothing - nada

However it would recognise the phone if I set the phone to download mode - but I want to use my phone as mass storage

Well after months of trying I finally found a really stupid solution

Solution

Install the usb drivers for your phone as normal

connect the phone to pc via usb cable (nothing happens other then a few beeps as normal)

now plug in any usb dongle that you have already installed on your pc - like a usb wireless mouse dongle

suddenly windows detects the phone and you can now set your phone to mass storage from the phone status bar

Every time you want to connect your phone in mass storage just plug it in then plug in the other usb dongle after

Similar Issue with Samsung Galaxy S

I had a similar problem when I needed to copy some files onto a Galaxy S. In the past, I had to ensure that USB Debugging was off, connect the USB cable and then select Mass Storage on the smartphone. Win 8.1 Explorer did not see the device although it showed up as SAMSUNG_Android in Eject Media and Device Manager had the phone listed under Universal Serial Device. I was able to access the phone on one laptop by selecting Samsung Kies as the connection method (showed up in Explorer under the device type rather than a drive letter) but this did not work on another laptop.

The steps described in "How to connect Android devices to PC with USB Mass Storage Mode" on device-recovery.com worked for me on both Win 8.1 laptops: enable USB Debugging, connect the phone, pull down the status bar, tap on the USB Connected entry and then Mass Storage.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] TheFixItMan:
What you said will not work for this phone because when you plug it into a windows 8.1 laptop the option to select connect to mass storage in status bar is not there - It just shows the phone as charging

The only way iv found on a windows 8.1 laptop with this issue (note it depends on your hardware to weather you have this problem) is to plug the phone into the laptop then plug any other dongle in - the option to then connect to mass storage suddenly appears in the status bar and you can connect as normal
