[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
Great... Thanks. Brilliant.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] HkDng:
Give it a try right now.

Thank mate.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arturobandini:
Nice :) I was expecting this application.

Will try it right now.

I think you will make a lot of users happy.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] powerdete:
big thanks. good job!

Good job！

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] nikoan89:
Many thanks, it's very appreciated :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Mindreaver:
Just what we needed :) Thanks mate!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] anson3959:
It doesn‘t work on mine.

After Install, I copy my ebooks in \Storage Card\My Documents\Reader\Books and covers in \Storage Card\My Documents\Reader\Images

use the app and reset

It only shows "No book found"

Even the original ebooks are disappeared

Any idea:confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] loquillo_rojo:
It works in my Leo. Please, try to move the books to \My Documents\Reader\Books and check the names of the files. If it does not work, send me a P.M. with one of your books.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] madindehead:
I had this as well mate. Named my files Book title - Author, for both the book files, and the images. Placed them in My Documents\Reader.

Great looking tool, but sadly it's not working :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] fards:
it doesn't work with the books on the 207rom. all books are in the correct place but don't have author in the filename. not looked at the db your app has created, but does it read the existing one and add missing books or create a new one from scratch ?

have you programmed it against the 205 or 207? I wonder if the db structure is different ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] madindehead:
I know there is a way to add them by editing the database using an SQLite editor. But finding a free one, and then doing it, seems like a bit of a hassle.

If this tool can work for 2.07 ROMs and below, it would be amazing!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] nirvanax:
you are fast man thank you now i can read my books in portuguse lol
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] philo69:
Just a question......works with all versions of Manila?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] fards:
here's the original and new versions of book.db from mine..

I'm presuming "changed copy" is the original ?

alas I dont have sqleditor here but doing a data compare I can see that there's some slight differences.

maybe it's enough so that it doesnt read them?

great job so far, the speed you got it out is impressive, and it really could become an essential app :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] madindehead:
I have to agree with what fards has said. This could become an ESSENTIAL app. I certainly like the eReader feature. And will be using it a lot I feel.

If you can get this to work on the 2.07 ROMs, it would be amazing.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arturobandini:
ROM Miri v3.2 here...

The soft does not work.

It did not create any index :(

It also deleted all my original ebooks :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] loquillo_rojo:
Hi

It's working in the miri rom [ROM][WWE][10.02.2010] Miri HD2 WM6.5.X (23529) ROM :: V 3.2 [ONLINE] http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=614006

The Manila version is 2.5.20113626.

You can read and edit the books.db in the pc using the SQLLiteExpert Personal edition and check the diferences.

I'll check the books.db you send me and post a reply asap
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] fards:
it hasn't

just rename /my documents/reader/Changed copy of books.db

back to

books.db and flick off the tab and back again
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arturobandini:
Hi loquillo_rojo,

It's the MIRI Rom I'm using, but still it does not work. I followed the whole procedure. My Ebook tab is empty....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
Hi

I just ran the app on the v3.2 miri but it creates an empty books.db with the original books. (I checked the book.db on the pc with a mySQL reader)

Here's the result: View attachment books.zip
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arturobandini:
Thank you fards,

Unfortunately I did not make a copy of my original books.db file :(

Please, could anyone running the Miri ROM v3.2 kindly post the original books.db file ?

Thanks in advance.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] nirvanax:
doble post sorry
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] loquillo_rojo:
Thanks for your support. I have checked your Reader folder, and I noticed you don't have ebook with names like "title - creator.epub". Your books are like A Tale of Two Cities.epub.

In order to correctly fill the fields title and creator, it's needed to rename the books and cover matching this rules. That's why the program didn't recognize your ebooks.

I made the version 0.2 :), in order to solve this problem . Now, if you don't have any "-" to be used as separator, I read the file name as title and put "unknown" as creator.

I test the app with your folder and now works correctly.

The new version is uploaded in the first post.

P.D. Sorry for my english. I hope you understand what I'm saying.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arturobandini:
loquillo_rojo, thank you...

Actually I did rename all my ebooks as you said: title - creator.epub... But unfortunately it did not work. Empty tab.

I will try your new version 0.2.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] fards:
Your English is Superb!

just going to test the app.. :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
Great, glad you solved the problem and glad I could help. It makes perfect sense to look for the author name, so I understand your design decision.

And hey, I read back the first post, and saw that you wrote that the program required that the file has the title-author format. So.... i'm sorry :p

Thanks again for this nifty app.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] anson3959:
It works now.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] loquillo_rojo:
Please, send me your Reader directory with your books and folder included.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] fards:
Reporting back in..

It reported having found 15 books in my documents (main memory) and 0 in storage card.

When I opened the tab it had found 20 books in total, 5 from the Storage card.

I wonder if there's a 20 file limit in the reader tab? there's another 35 ebooks on my sdcard all set up in the right format :p
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] anson3959:
Thanks for your work!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arturobandini:
loquillo_rojo,

Some feedback regarding v0.2 beta.

V0.2 works better than v0.1, but there are still some problems.

- Apparently does not work when ebooks are placed in Storage Card/My Documents/Reader/books

- Works only when ebooks are placed in My Documents/Reader/Books, but even though some minor bugs are remaining:

Example

:

- I want to add 8 Ebooks. All are .epub and all have the correct Name format.

- I put the 8 .epub files in My Document/Reader/Books.

- I launch Manila Ebook Tab Indexer

And here is the RESULT:

* The program tells me that he found 0 files in My Document/Reader/Books

* The program tells me that he found 0 files in SD CARD/Reader/Books

* HOWEVER, in the Ebook Tab, it says there are 16 books (10 original + 6 new ones)

* So it means the soft found only some of the .epub files (6 over 8)

* even if it said that he did not find any.

Please, keep on the good work, because it's useful and promissing :)

[EDIT: Ok, I think the program missed 2 ebooks because of their titles. Both their titles contained ' (e.g. "L'Esprit Souterrain"). I removed the ' , and finally the program was able to find the 2 ebooks it missed the first time... Weird]
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arturobandini:
Images

Also I didn' manage to display the front covers of the new books...

My ebooks were simple .epub files, which were not provided with any specific cover.

So I found the relevant picture on the net, resize it in the right format (i.e. JPG 250x380), renamed it exactly the same name as the corresponding ebook and placed it in the My Documents/Reader/Images folder.

But... it didn't work. The book appears :p but not its image :(.

Any idea?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] loquillo_rojo:
I have fixed in the 0.3 version the way the program count the books. So, I hope it tell you the correct number of books found. But, I have done a test with more than 20 books, and you are right, the reader tab has a 20 file limit. You can see more books in the books.db, but the reader tab only show 20. :mad:

03 version in the fisrt post.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] loquillo_rojo:
There was a problem in the way the program count the number of books. If it detect any problem with a book, reset the counter to 0. That's the reason you have a "found 0 books".

It's fixed in the 03 version in the first post.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] loquillo_rojo:
Can you send me one problematic picture ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arturobandini:
Nice, thanks again for your great work :)

what about the problem with the SD card (it seems to me that the program cannot find the ebooks placed in Storage Card/my Documents/Reader...),
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arturobandini:
No problematic picture.... actually I have no picture at all. Just the black book :p

But maybe there is a specific method to follow to have the picture....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] HENWEN:
Same for me... No picture, only a black book.

In the folder

\Storage Card\My Documents\Reader\Books i've the file HD2 HTC-HTC.epub

\Storage Card\My Documents\Reader\Images i've the file HD2 HTC-HTC.jpeg

If you have an idea...

Thank you so much
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] loquillo_rojo:
The correct extension is jpg. Jpeg will not be recognized.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] loquillo_rojo:
It seems work for me. Check the correct name of the directory. No more ideas ...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arturobandini:
Indeed :) It works now.

Devil is in the details :D

Thanks a lot
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] HENWEN:
Sorry, the extension is .jpg

Size is 750x750

May be it'is too much. I try to decrease the size of the picture.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] HENWEN:
that's OK now

I'd a space caracter in the name of the file. Without the space caracter, it works fine !!!!

Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arturobandini:
Works perfectly now. I managed to include all my books in the tab :D

Brilliant.

THANKS ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
Ahhhh, one of my favorite books!

I love this quote about the (existentialistic) freedom of man:

"even if man really were nothing but a piano-key, even if this were proved to him by natural science and mathematics, even then he would not become reasonable, but would purposely do something perverse out of simple ingratitude, simply to gain his point. And if he does not find means he will contrive destruction and chaos, will contrive sufferings of all sorts, only to gain his point!" (part 1, chapter viii)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] madindehead:
Going to give this a shot now, and see that it works. Looking forward to getting more books in my eReader :D

Is there some possibility to change the ebook reader to "nightmode" - just switch the colors(black background and white text)?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] madindehead:
What would be better, is white text on a dark grey background. Better for the eyes to read.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] chimpsinties:
I code using white text on black background and I stare at the screen all bloody day. I think it's much easier on the eyes :cool:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] madindehead:
:) Well, anything that isn't black on white is better. Less strain. Certainly flipping of the colours would help. Would be nice if this could somehow be hacked ^^

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] madindehead:
Any ideas on how we could get this on a black background with white text?

Or would it not be possible because of the way it's been coded? Just wondering really, I'm not experienced enough to help, just would be awesome if it would work.

on my own italian rom is perfect

i'll cook it in

Excellent program! Works great!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dongster:
Hello,

This is a really very cool feature. Would it be technically possible to use the same tab, or an addtional tab, to view other documents like *.doc, *.pdf...etc...

I know that the Documents tab is available in Manila 1922 and some of the ROMs, but personally, I prefer to remain on stock rom 1.66 which is pretty stable, although my HD2 is Manila 1921 :(

Thanks for your help in developing such applications, because based on the ability of HD2, HTC equipped it with only 50% i guess, and it is applications like yours that truly make the HD2 even better.

:D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
For the time being, setting the brightness to a minimal level (10%-20%) really helps.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] AvinashDhaniraj:
Hi,

Any way to mod the reader to be able to read pdf?

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] sicknessinu:
Really good work, works perfectly for me.

Just one question is it in anyway possible to display more than 20 books in the tab? Anyone here that can try this in anyway out?

Would love it to simply fade between 50 Books or so.

Sorry guys for the bad english.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] neil_swann80:
Can functionality be added to turn the page via a quick shake of the device, or by tilting 45/90 degrees etc? Or perhaps a page turn timer?

I love the indexer by the way! :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] texture:
The application works and add my ebooks to the db,but the author field reports "unknown" for all books.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] neil_swann80:
You could use Calibre to convert the PDF to EPUB.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] sicknessinu:
And if this doesn`t work correctly save the Pdf as .txt (UTF-8) and then transfer it with Calibre, works perfect for my Terry Pratchett Pdf`s.:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tboy2000:
This all works fine for me except for when I click on library and get the list of ebooks with their small thumbnails (just like htc all people) but my newly added ebooks do not have a thumbnail even though my cover images are fine and load up in the ereader tab.

Anyone can help?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] soulless_id:
Quick Q:

I'm downloadin a book in .txt format ( language of the book is Bulgarian - written in Cyrilic ) and when I hit convert in the Calibre, I just get an error?

Do you think it's from the language of the book, or am I not doing sometrhing right?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Zenk_77:
you know .... how to change the font in the Manila ebook reader ??
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] sicknessinu:
Same here, any solutions so far?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] vodanhdaisu:
I've done all the guide at first post, install Ebook-indexter 0.4, and then made a soft-reset. I tried to put some e-book.epub in the directory as guided, but in e-book tab, it has only the 10 original books. Even i tried to browse directly to the book, but it seems not be opened. :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] sicknessinu:
Did you executed the Indexer after Soft-Reset?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] sicknessinu:
Can someone please upload one from the original books with all pictures for me. Think I have an idea for the thumbnails.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] sicknessinu:
1. save your .txt as UTF-8 Format

2. add the .txt to calibre

3. in the Convert Options => Epub Settings: enable "No default cover" (Not sure if its really needed just try it out)

4. optional if the result looks bad don`t know why it works but it does => in the Convert Options => txt Settings: enable Markdown

5. set Input and Output both as default

That worked for me, the next step is the problem that the reader displays the cyrillic characters as ???.

So we have to add the Fonts directly into the epub file.

This can be also an method to change the font of other documents as questioned in another post, but i don`t know if we need to do something in calibre too for that. will try it later.

--------------------------------------------------------

1. Open the epub file using 7-zip (or other zip utility). Add the fonts bellow and edit the files directly in the archive through the 7-zip explorer (you may need to change the default editor for .css/.opf/.xhtml files to WordPad for example (I use SciTE)).

---------------

2. Add the following Serif fonts to the epub file (simply drag and drop them into the open archive). Fonts are available at C:\Program Files\Calibre2\resources\fonts\liberation:

---------------

LiberationSerif-Regular.ttf

LiberationSerif-Italic.ttf

LiberationSerif-BoldItalic.ttf

LiberationSerif-Bold.ttf

---------------

3. content.opf - insert the <item... lines after the <manifest>

---------------

<manifest>

<item href="LiberationSerif-Regular.ttf" media-type="application/octet-stream" id="id1"/>

<item href="LiberationSerif-Italic.ttf" media-type="application/octet-stream" id="id2"/>

<item href="LiberationSerif-BoldItalic.ttf" media-type="application/octet-stream" id="id3"/>

<item href="LiberationSerif-Bold.ttf" media-type="application/octet-stream" id="id4"/>

---------------

4. stylesheet.css - insert the following text after the first line

---------------

@font-face {

font-style: italic;

font-family: 'Liberation', serif, sans-serif;

font-weight: normal;

src: url(LiberationSerif-Italic.ttf);

}

@font-face {

font-style: normal;

font-family: 'Liberation', serif, sans-serif;

font-weight: normal;

src: url(LiberationSerif-Regular.ttf);

}

@font-face {

font-style: italic;

font-family: 'Liberation', serif, sans-serif;

font-weight: bold;

src: url(LiberationSerif-BoldItalic.ttf);

}

@font-face {

font-style: normal;

font-family: 'Liberation', serif, sans-serif;

font-weight: bold;

src: url(LiberationSerif-Bold.ttf);

}

Offical Rom Download from HTC Website

i never hacked or anything like that

can you help me please?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] loquillo_rojo:
In the offical Rom you don't have the manila tab reader. You ned to put any rom with this new feature enabled first.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] MuadDib59:
Like others I don't have small thumbnails images into the library.

But others functions seems ok on ROM Artemis 3.5 FR.

Maybe can you try to read the metadata of the epub to get title or author ?

Epub = zip file. When you open it you find a content.opf file which is xml format including title and author. There is an small cover image too ... probably usable to generate the library

I think this tools will be a real "must have" if you are able to enter the epub structure.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] w3s:
what is the differance between the offcial rom and the other roms?

is it illegal to use other roms on the mobile?

does it effect the device?

do i lose the warranty?

For the smaller thumnails you need to add in another jpeg file and rename it to match the other thumbnail files in the images folder. just saw them.
