Alright then.

A good chunk of my reading is done on devices which only have connectivity some of the time, I may even be somewhere that I have a computer with an internet connection, but where my reading device does not.

This is why I even had a straight file sync request for FBSync, USB file transfers Just Work.

Yes, there is probably some form of cached mode, but that doesn't help when I can get the book to the laptop, but not from the laptop to my tablet.

And then there is the privacy aspect, I'm a bit more extreme on the subject than most people, but I'm alright with that. I run my own copy of the CGI and connect to it over https for a reason, and only a small part of that is control, the rest of it is that I really don't want the list of what I'm reading, where I'm at in it, or the like to be sitting somewhere else.

Give me the same app, with the ability to do local books, sync over https or sftp to a server that I can run myself, and... Still probably not, because I read a fair bit with fbreader on the computer too, and fbsync is really quite conveient.

Your mileage will probably vary, but a cloud reader doesn't really mesh with my needs or my paranoia.

I have one question - where are kept informations about pages and bookmarks?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Delvorak:
FBReader stores all of it's book data in the books.db database located in the following directory:

/data/data/org.geometerplus.zlibrary.ui.android/databases

Hope that helps,

Scott
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Delvorak:
In all likely hood this is caused by a directory difference in the two devices. You probably have the books on one device in something like

/mnt/sdcard/books

and in the other:

/mnt/external_sd/books

This is a problem I've been trying to figure out how to fix. A few posts up from this erreur404 posted one way to fix this problem on your devices. Not sure if it will work for you.

If anyone has any suggestions as to how I can fix this in my app, I'm all ears. The only thing I can think of is to add a setting that indicates the relative path where you store your books on each device.. but that's rather cumbersome.

Scott
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] kdw_dj:
Thanks a lot. I thought that I could set automatic synchronization that data using Dropsync but that app don't see folders inside /data. ;/
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] zelch:
I've settled on the following logic for the PC version:

Never insert into the FBReader database, only update. (This does mean that you have to open the book first.)

Match books based on the name, and the book size, everything else is ignored when deciding which book is which.

At this point, the path no longer matters, at all. Including the size in the matching allows for the case of multiple books by the same 'name' in different directories, the chances of them being the exact same size is pretty damn low.

And I never update anything except for the book position markers, never anything else.

This seems to work very well, and the paths in play for the PC are utterly different than for the Android devices that I'm using.

jelly bean

FB Sync worked perfectly for me until I updated my OS to Jelly Bean. Running android 4.1.2, there is now a mirror drive for the sdcard called sdcard0 in the Storage folder. When I used to delete a book on my phone, dropbox, and tablet it stayed deleted. Now it seems to restore from the scdard0 folder when I sync, even though I thought deleting from sdcard would also delete from sdcard0. It works the other way-if I delete the Books folder in sdcard0 on my phone it deletes the Books folder from sdcard as well. Not sure why Google/Android needed to add this 'feature,' but it is a pain.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] DizzyDen:
sdcard0 is not a mirror of sdcard... it is the sdcard... you can delete from sdcard0 and not sdcard and FB Sync will not see the book on sdcard. sdcard is a partition on emmc... sdcard0 is the physical sdcard.

Odp: [APP] FBReader "Sync" App - FBSync v1.0.26 (Beta)

I think that adding locale plugin would be great and it could be easier to implement than force auto sync function to work properly.

Is this app still being developed? Any ETA on the auto sync feature?

Possible issue with FBSync and KitKat?

Just picked up a Moto X last night...got it updated to KitKat and rooted this morning. I'd like to sync FBReader between it and a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (running Cyanogenmod 10.2.something, which is Jelly Bean underneath). FBSync pushes everything from the tablet up to Dropbox without any problems, but on the phone, it gripes that it "cannot read database." I had already launched FBReader on the phone, set it up to talk to my Calibre server, and downloaded a book. What would cause this problem? Is there some incompatibility with KitKat, or is something else going on?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Delvorak:
Was there any additional information? if so, could you take a screenshot and post it?

I'm not aware of any kitkat issues, but it's so new it's possible.

Scott
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] salfter:
I've included a couple...first one is from while it's running, the second one is from when it's done. SuperSU pops up a message on the first attempt; it says root access is granted, or something to that effect.

FWIW, there appears to be lots of other functionality that apparently isn't working right in KitKat either, independent of issues with FBSync. For instance, I can't get /system to mount read/write, which keeps lots of things from working: AdAway can't update the hosts file, I can't install Busybox, etc. Since I had to first downgrade to Jelly Bean to root KitKat, I'm beginning to wonder if I should just downgrade to Jelly Bean again, root it, and stay there for a while.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Delvorak:
Hrm, yea it didn't really sound like your root took. I'm not surprised that Fbsync is having problems.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] salfter:
It was rooted, but what cleared up the problems with AdAway and busybox was MotoWpNoMo. It removes the write protection from /system.

FBSync, OTOH, still doesn't work.

javax.net.ssl.SSLPeerUnverifiedException: No peer certificate

A note here for anyone else that may experience this error when trying to set up an alternate sync url.

javax.net.ssl.SSLPeerUnverifiedException: No peer certificate

I was trying to get this working on a server hosting multiple SSL domains. I kept getting the above error and nothing was being logged on the server side.

At first I thought the signing CA authority was not being recognised as I've seen this error in the past with java apps not aware of cacert.org or startssl.org. However I've since confirmed that both CAcert and StartSSL certificates will work fine with the app.

It turns out one of the SSL libraries isn't working with the SNI extensions on the server. I'm using FBSync on the latest Nexus5 stock 4.4.2 android build.

The solution in my case was to make the fbsync domain the first ("default" in nginx) virtual domain. After doing this the app was able to establish the connection successfully.

Hope this helps someone wrestling with this problem.

Would also be great to have SNI support in the app, and to have the auto-sync feature back in ;)

Big thanks to [MENTION=687251]Delvorak[/MENTION] for creating this great app!

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tailsthecat3:
It seems that some ogg sound files, stored on the sd card, show in the tone selection list and others do not.

does anyone know why this is??

it seems that not all tones are being displayed in the selection lists...

thank you thank you
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
I'm pretty sure to select a tone it needs to be in system/media/audio/ringtones(or /notifications, or /alarms, or /ui), and not on the SD. I can't remember if it was you trying to convert a wav file to ogg, but if you didn't get it my guess would be that wav is not supported by hero, so the orig file may need to be mp3 or something.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tailsthecat3:
ugh, like i wrote, some are listed, others are not.

android 101: got ringtones, notifications folders on my sd card...the sounds are in there...

thank you
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
Believe it or not I can read:) Stop being grumbly, you asked for help, I tried. Let's try this again. Simple question: did you put them into where I said (system/media/audio/ringtones)? Or are they ONLY on your sd, because the system sounds in settings should only pull from system I believe, not sd. I installed about 20mb of ringtones and notifications to my sd, they did not show up, i copied them into system/media, rebooted, they were there. My guess is the ones that "show up" are ones you dl'd from an app like zedge or mabilo, which copy them into the correct directory....
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oohaylima:
Don't know. I copied everything from the system and moved it to the SD card; saving 2mb.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
interesting, well, (OP) maybe try the simple reboot and see if they are there, otherwise try putting them in system and see what happens.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tailsthecat3:
All my ringtones and notifications are in folders on the root of the sd card, in folders named ringtones, notifications. Almost every file shows in the list, even some ogg files but some ogg files are not showing. So the placement of the folders and files on the sd card is not the problem.

Thanks for the input, I'll just convert the ogg files that aren't showing to mp3 files.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
seriously, just try to put one into system... (you do have root explorer or some similar file manager, right?) and reboot to see what happens, otherwise, I hope it works for you.

You're probably stuck using Odin to get back to stock.

I think it's hung between OCLF an not having root.

This time get the update.zip on the internal SD.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelg117:
ok

yea but the root is gone because it was only temp and dont you have to be rooted to flash with odin? the big problem here is losing the contacts. and none of them are on the sim so thats a problem. as long as we can salvage them i think we shall be ok
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamsungVibrant:
Download the proper 512 pit, and JFD TAR, use odin, and just go back to stock, unless someone else has a different suggestion.

I also like to root by just using update.zip and doing it manually.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drewstein:
Odin will work no matter what, root or not.

If the contacts were stored in the phone then you may lose them. Sign into your gmail on your computer and click contacts. Maybe they're stored there which is what I do.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelg117:
ok

may isnt an option. we need to have those contacts. there are over 1000 and every one is important

and anywho. will you give me an step by step on flashing to stock using odin seeing as i have never used it before and a link to download

So, just thought some other folks would want to give it a try and see if they have similar results.

I ran the VS 3389 update with the gapps pack and got the lag no matter what configuration of wifi on an off I used. Same for tnt lite 2.4, 3.1, 3.1.2, vegan beta3, and vegan beta4. I think its been narrowed down to a kernel issue that is hit or miss. Check the lag thread on the developer page
[G Tablet General] insight3fl:
I did multiple experiments today on tnt 3.1.2. The first time it went to sleep on its own I dropped to 475 on the bench mark from 2800. I then tried to activate sleep by quick press of the power and waited ten minutes. It did not lag. The next time I did it, I got the lag. From that point on, whether I let it sleep on its own or I did it manually, I began to kill as much of the programs as I could with task killer before it went to sleep. I thought that was the solution as I never had it again all day on 3-4 sleep cycles. Then, I ran a bunch of programs did not kill any tasks, it went to sleep and when I restored it, no lag.

So it only did it a few times today..about 15% of the time with no real pattern. I leave wifi on all the time.
