Yes, that is a place for you to move the

downloaded

English dictionary when you swap it for another one.

Those are progress indicators for the book. They are filled in black as you read more.

Yes, that's been annoying me for awhile. Happens in a lot of apps that don't understand e-ink. I finally figured out how to fix it today. An updated app is coming soon.

No, the brightness control does not work with the Glowlight. The light is not controlled in the standard Android way as I found when making the GL Gesture app (which will still work in the Kindle app or anywhere else).

Did you remember that cover captures are

manual

for anything other than the stock reader?

Down below shows the cover page of the book, open in the Kindle app. When this is displayed, you must long-press the lower right hardware button (which is linked to SetCover) until the screen blinks. Then a smaller image of the cover appears briefly. If you then return to the home screen it will look like the second image.

None of that will work if you forgot to do the manual cover capture as described above.

OK, there is a lot of confusion here. Those dictionaries I posted are for the KINDLE app, not the stock reader. I already gave you an English-Bulgarian dictionary for the stock reader and that is handled by the Dictionary app .

Assuming you downloaded the English dictionary for the Kindle app, a long-press on a word will result in something like the third image below.

To swap out a KINDLE dictionary, you need to move the two files out of the kindle folder and into /sdcard/kindle/Dictionary/English. This is easily done with ES File Explorer. See the next image below.

The two files marked can represent any dictionary (they all have the same filename). If you tap on the button circled along the top menu bar, you'll get a message that multi-select is ready. Then tap on the two files and they will be highlighted. Long-press on either one and wait for the context menu to appear. Choose "Move to..." and navigate on the screen that is shown to /sdcard/kindle/Dictionaries/English then hit "OK". The files will be moved.

Now to place a new dictionary, go to /sdcard/kindle/Dictionaries and decide which one you want. Next image. Open the folder you want and reverse the process. Multi-select the two files, long-press on either one and choose "Move to..." from the context menu. In this case you want to move the files into /sdcard/kindle. Next image.

Now, depending on which dictionary you moved into place, you can see a variety of results as shown in the next two images.

That's up to you. I don't know how many words are in either of the Bulgarian options. I thought I was pretty lucky just to find them and then adapt them to work. They are certainly not as big as the English dictionary that Amazon provides. It depends on how you tend to use a dictionary when reading and what kind of material you read. One thing, the dictionary loading when you look up a word is sloooooooow (faster with the smaller Bulgarian examples).

I have gone all over on this idea and finally decided I would keep the books for a given reader in a dedicated folder for that reader. You have no choice with the Kindle app because it creates it's own folder and can't see anything else.

Both EBookDroid and Perfect Viewer allow you select whatever folder you like (placing a .nomedia file in the EBookDroid or Perfect Viewer folders will hide any PDFs from the stock reader). The stock reader will find any epub

anywhere

on the sdcard or in /media so if "The Little Prince" is not in the stock Library, it's gone (somehow).

The stock system creates the folder system "My Files" on both the sdcard and in /media. Inside that is Books, Newspapers, Magazines, etc. Just really silly stuff. I have decided not to use those folders. It's just another level to hunt through. Instead, I created a "Nook" folder on the sdcard only and hid the "My Files" folder on both the sdcard and /media. If you simply delete them the system will replace them. To hide a folder or a file, long press on it and from the second screen of the context menu select "Hide". If you want it back, you go to the Settings section of ES File Explorer under Security Settings and look at the "Hide List".

I've actually hidden a lot of stuff because things multiply that you never need to get at, like the NSTWeather folder, or Qtiles. Some of the readers create workspace folders (some dotted) and you never need to access them. I hide all that stuff too. I like to be able to go to the sdcard and just see the folders for the readers and a few odd things like Pictures (where the screenshots like I've used below are stored) and a few others. Otherwise you have to wade through a lot of stuff to find what you want. You can see how few folders I have displayed on my sdcard in the last image below.
