[Q] Dropbox? - Xperia Play General

I use dropbox to study on the go, and have several .ppt files in there from lectures, however, I can't seem to open them on my Play. It says error when opened with OfficeSuite, it lists it as an Input Output Error, file now found? Eventhough I have it downloaded?
Anyone able to help me with a way to view Microsoft Documents on my Play? I'm new to Android and need all the help I can get
Thanks guys,
Niall

Email Attachments

Hi,
Just wondering if anybody can confirm whether the G1 can download/view email attachments? I currently have a .doc in my "Email" app - I thought I read that attachments work, but I see no way to open it.
Any ideas? Or is this simply not possible?
Thanks.
There is no box. Does this mean the G1 has no native .doc viewer? I thought it could view .pdf and .doc etc okay? What downloads will I need?
Cheers.
I would try getting either astro or linda file manager. They are both file managers that enable you to view .txt files. Maybe having a program to associate with txt files would somehow let you download the attachment. Probably not, but hey its worth a try.
Edit: I thought you were talking about txt files, I see you are referring to doc files, I. Searched the market and it looks like g-notepad is the only thing that supports the doc filetype. Hrmm, that's kinda crappy that you can't download a doc attachment. Good luck with this one, let us know if you have any success!
Currently there is no doc viewer (that I know of). There is supposed to be a pdf viewer on the Market, but from what I hear it's not very robust. Dataviz should have a version of Docs2Go for Android sometime this year.

how to modify the register & internet

Hi,
Just got that little wonder, truly happy until now. This forum answered most of my question but:
* I want to know how to modify that register (saw several topic giving command lines but how do we use them?)
* Is there a flash player available to get streaming from the net (bad exemple but such site as pornhub require a flash player). Are those video possible to watch?
* I tried to download a video from youtube but, the device tell me that I dont have enough space, isn't it possible to open onto to the sd card (4gb).
*would you have a website that provide apps, games and other usefull stuff?
Thanks

If it's the registry that you want to modify - I recommend Total Commander. Search around and others will have other recommendations.

Will the flash player work with Opera, as well? Or just PocketIE?
TIA!

[HELP][REQ] CHM viewer for WinMo6.1?

hey guys
I'v got a number of documents in *.chm formats, and its incredibly frustrating that windows mobile doesn't support the format by default. I've been looking for a CHM viewer, but have been met by little success
Was hoping someone would be able to direct me to a stable CHM viewer (since the files im trying to open are upto 200MB in size) - preferably free.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
PS - i'll update my first post with any recommendations that are given, so others looking for a chm viewer don't have to look through the entire thread for the link.
Well, I have tried quite a few CHM viewer but the results are dismal.
Some do manage to open big files as I have big books too but then they lose the layout etc and the document in rendered useless.
For smaller documents esp those which do not have an index bar Amber CHM works well.

Hello,
MicroOLAP CHM ebook reader would do the magic. It's not for free however. I am currently using the version 2.5 on a Blackstone without any sweat. Formatting and Setting are kept as original as possible. You will definitely like it as you happens to have big clogs of eBooks. Check it out.

How to force an app to launch with hyperlinks?

Hi all,
Maybe not the right place for this, but as I have. Desire HD, here goes.
I was wondering how it would be possible to have a certain app load when you click on a link on a website?
I'll explain:
I would like to create a hyperlink on my site, for example, 'Listen here' and have it launch for example, A Online Radio or TuneIn radio.
This is possible on normal Windows software by adding the rtsp:// protocol or .rm file extension to force Real Player or .asx to get Windows Media to open the file/stream
Is this possible with Android? The link would be placed on a mobile site and I would hope to get either of the above two apps to open, bit what extension/prefix to use?
I hope I've made myself clear!
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Large Documents

I've searched around and not really found what I was looking for. I have used Polaris, Documents to Go, and Quickoffice for an 88mb Word file I need to open and have trouble. The file is full of pictures ect... and when I open it some take longer than others, but the pictures look like crap and the formatting is jacked up. I know Tablets are not the best for documents, but I am not even trying to edit, just view the thing. I figured 88mb would be in the scope of the memory capabilities, but wondered if anyone else had this problem. I have had problems with large powerpoint files in the past not opening at all.
The main reason it annoys me is not because I need to go my Windows laptop to view them, but that my friend's Ipad2 opens them just fine. Come on Android! Anybody have any advice? And I apologize in advance if there is a thread addressing this same issue, I just couldn't find it. Thanks.
Did you try docs to go? I always seem to have good luck with that program.
