well, I disliked the in-built functionality of wm2003 picture programme from the very beginning
when you ask the soft to SD storage card it opens up all of avaialable pictures no matter which catalogue there are, if I have let's say 200 familiy photos but want to show only a few of them I am stuck ... I can not open just one catalogue on SD card, uffff
is it a way to disable that or what other picture programme you advise, I'd care about three major funcionalities:
- slide show
- opening up only specific folders and not all of the files on SD card
- changing the size of thumbnails (like in ACDsee)
thanks for response, monika
DAVA pic viewer is so good and free
and just Where do we get That from??
http://www.google.dk/search?hl=da&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=DAVA+viewer&btnG=Google-søgning
google knows
google is wise in the way of where things are found
thank you All for answers, in the meantime I have just discovered that ACDSee can also do the job ....

Here's the B&N eReader app that was on my NRG ROM but gave a 'comng soon' splash but updated OTA to the attached new version that is live and working
A bunch of pics and info on the app ar located here: http://www.mobilitydigest.com/barnes-nobles-ereader-is-liveand-sweet/
Awesome, thank you kindly!
Excuse my ignorance about the B&N eReader but can you import ebooks you already own into this reader or will it only except publications from the B&N website?
I am not seeing any option to import existing ebooks, such as the ones I have for eReader. B&N owns eReader, if I remember correctly. Wonder if the two apps will "merge" at some point, or I'm guessing they may want people like me to switch over to the new reader.
this is awesome ... thanks David
I've been waiting for this for a long time. You're my hero! Thanks!
Yer looks ok, downloaded the free books, but I can't view my .epub books I already have, seems pointless application unless I can read my existing epubs, perhaps I am doing something wrong again...

I suspect they have to be in the folder that the app uses. I haven't dug around yet to find just where the program is storing my books.
After the first five minutes, my initial impressions:
- Visually very appealing
- Instant access to your B&N library (proud nook owner here, so I have a lot of e-books from B&N).
- Doesn't sync yet with the nook (but neither does the BlackBerry or iPhone version)
- You can read e-newspapers from the app (I don't think you can do that yet with the other versions, but maybe they've been updated)
If you buy e-books from B&N this is definitely a must-have app. Otherwise there are more flexible options out there.
I tried importing a book from my peanut press folder on my sd card to the proper one on main memory (where Dracula was downloaded), and it didn't recognize it. I love the fact that the bonehead who made the cab put the BN folder on the root of the device, instead of in program files.

It's in Program Files on mine. But I'm not happy about the boneheaded move to put the Books folder within the program folder in main memory. It might be preferable to install the app to a storage card instead of main memory. Unless someone can find a way to get the program to look for books on the storage card.
Version 1.0.0.27 is now on B&N's website

I agree. At minimum I want my books on the storage card, even better if the whole program is there too.

I'm still deciding which reader to go with. Which one do you like better?

After installation I was able to cut and paste the whole installation directory to my Storage Card, update the shortcut and the app worked just fine.

Mobipocket is still my personal favorite.
+1 for Mobireader
It would be nice if they'd update the application to better fit the HD2 (non D-Pad phones)
Download a sample from B&N, anyone will do or the sample of your book you already have..
Then go to your book folder, copy across your, EPUB file already converted from any other form in Calibre etc...then rename it with the exact same long 13 digit number as the one you downloaded...
then ok the image and title are wrong but the book is all correct inside...
Anyone get any further than this

Good tip, infact if you download a sample of the book you have already then everything looks and works fine , the thumbnail has a small sample sticker on it though but that ain't a problem
Rumball: I was able to move it to my storage card as you suggested - thanks.
Mobipocket works ok for me but I have the HD2 and it's hard to turn the pages. I'm still shopping around, I'm taking a closer look at the calibre conversion program.
All,
This app was developed to sync with your B&N ebook library only, ie not to read epub's that you might have already downloaded to your phone or from other sources. If you have a book from B&N then it should be in your ebook library in which case it can be synced and downloaded. That's not to say you can't trick it into reading other downloaded books per other comments.
Also note it's been developed specifically and only for the HD2... mileage will vary if tried on another phones.

Does anyone know where the notes & bookmarks are stored (within the android file system) Customer service has been 0 help. They just keep saying that there's no cloud based backup system so I can't back it up.... The files are stored on my device SOMEWHERE so there has to be a way to back them up. It kills me to think that I could lose all the notes I took through the 10+ books I've bought.

I know this is old, but in case anyone comes across this thread as I did looking for an answer:
It's stored on the SD card, at /Audible/* where * = some proprietary number .aax. Most files in this folder are <1mb, so it should be easy to spot the one which ones are books. Unfortunately it isn't possible to identify which is which.

For me *.aax files were stored at /Android/data/com.audible.application/files
Hello all, I have received a TON of false positives in my search for whether this is even possible.
In windows, a shortcut to a file or folder can be stored in any folder.
So far in Android, a shortcut can only be placed on the home screen, and AFAIK does not have a corresponding file that can be found in the root browser.
I am trying to trick Handshaker into giving me access to my EXTERNAL SD, and the only way I can think of is to create a shortcut somewhere on the internal SD that zips on over to the card where all my media (100Gb+) is stored.
I'm on a OPX, so internal storage BARELY COVERS apps. No switcheroo action is reasonably doable.
As an aside, is this whole Mac incompatibility thing a vestigial grudge? It must take a lot of effort to KEEP usb from working as it should. Are there other apps besides the "works when it feels like it" Android File Transfer or "installs weird **** on your phone" HandShaker that allow you to move around YOUR OWN FILES without using the cloud? The amount of web silence and lack of development is stunning to me. Maybe I need to refine my search terms?? Unlikely. I've tried many tens of iterations.
The search for answers here results in a mountain of false-positives as well.
Thanks for taking the time to at least read this.
Cheers.
Hello Community!
As everybody might know, the stock camera app saves taken pictures in the DCIM folder (phone memory or sd card - depending on the settings).
Unfortunately, photo files are becoming more and more in this folder, as Android does not create subfolders for every 100 photos or so.
I remember that nokia phones (with symbian) did create subfolders after 100 photos. That was waaayyy better, especially when you are entering the DCIM folder via PC. In Android, if you have many photos in the DCIM folder, it takes such a long time until all photos are displayed in the explorer and are accessible.
My question is: Does there exists a trick / tool / setting that allows Android to create subfolders in the DCIM folder automaticly?
Any help would be much appreciated, an approach without root would be prefered, but if neccesary I'm also interested in aproaches with root.
Hope someone might have some suggestions.
Greeting from Germany!
Hannes
