It is posibble to associate the file extension of unknow types (.docx,.mobi,.rtf,.txt) directly from finding it in library.apk and click on it? I just need to open file and ask me for (open with aplication...)
I'm fairly certain that the reader can't read anything other than epub and pdf, but there are other apps that will open those. Kingsoft Office (however strange and broken it is) should be able to open .docx and .rtf, I know it opens .doc and .txt. As for .mobi, Cool Reader should be able to work.

hi,
i'm using my trinity a lot for books reading. i have them in *.txt format. i would like a suggestion of a program/database that will allow me to put them all together and view them easily, as well as search the text within them.
thank you very much
For putting them together you can use mobipocket reader (google it - the app is free) - desktop version can convert some formats, including .txt into its own file format and allows you to organise your books, sync them with your phone, etc.. I'm not sure about searching inside a book though.
you can also use ms free ebook reader they got a various formats->lit converter
Got my tab a few days ago and just in the process of redeeming my voucher codes... The WHSmith app is HORRIBLE, was hoping that any books I downloaded I would be able to import them into another e-reader, however I cant find where the WHSmith app stores my books?
Does anyone know if it's possible? Or am I required to use the WHSmith app?
i couln't find them on the STG either, i went to the W H Smith sight on my pc, downloaded them from there & then transferred them to my STG external mem card with Kies, then i imported them into my Aldiko reader, works fine for me
the pc sight is --- whsmith.gospoken.com/secure/force;jsessionid=B755B03BE4AB35B6DEFFDAE0A9A049E7
Thanks for the tip!
I've gone through the WHSmith site, Installed adobe editions, but the only file I can download from the WHSmith site is a .acsm file at only 2kb?
What/Where was the file you transfered to your tab?
Some books come through as epub which is easily transferred to tab and opened.
Other are ascm which need to be opened with Adobe digital editions software on PC. Trying to work out how to convert them at the moment. Let me know if you sort it.
OK,
Open Adobe digital editions.
Drag the .acsm file onto the open window
Look in "c:\my documents\My Digital Editions"
There's the .epub file
Problem is eBook app on tab does not recognise the file type. Tries to import it but fails
Adobe Digital Editions help says:
Connect your compatible ebook reader and it will appear as a bookshelf in the library.
This could be the end of the road.
I installed Adobe Digital Editions, clicked on the "Book Title.acms" file & it opened in the ADE, I then went to the My Digital Editions folder and copied "Book Title.epub" & "Book Title.png" (from the thumbnails folder) to my SGT My Files/ebook/import, then i clicked the "Book Title.epub" file, selected "Aldiko" as the program to open it in, selected the import option that opened, the book then opened in Aldiko & is listed on the bookshelf
Hi all. Anyone could share what's comic book reader app you're using and how is it on our Kindle? I'm using Comicrack free but it seems a bit laggy.
Thanks.
I really like Comic Rack, it runs fine on CM7. If you want something more lightweight try ACV.
jj comic viewer for locally stored comics and mangawhat for reading manga online.
I started to use Perfect Viewer after seeing it mentioned in a different thread (CIFS setup one I think). Like it better than Comic rack so far, just a little tricky navigating it at first.

I read really A LOT of comics on my KF, and so I've tried three or four apps.
I think that the best is absolutely Perfect Viewer. I've never tried Comic Rack, though, so I will give it a shot.

Thanks guys. I too have tried few comic reader apps, Im torn between Perfect Viewer and Comic Reader Mobi. The fastest/lighest I've tried is Mobi, but I like Perfect Viewer's interface.

I have another vote for ComicRack, being able to sync any new comics via WIFI to my Kindle is very handy.

YeS!
I've tried ComicRack both on Windows and as Android App, and Perfect Viewer has been dumped without remorse
WiFi sync is a real charm.
Comic. rar file
I have both ACV and jj comic viewer. Have downloaded a comic in rar format. How do I open it.? I have tried doing a long tap and then opening it as a image, audio, video and text but, nothing happens.

a file source that has been named .rar or sets of files that have been archived
into a .rar file can be a tricky thing. depending on where your file originated you can either get something that can view archived files like .cbz, .cbr and .rar.
i have not tried any of the android comic viewers but my comic viewer on my pc will automatically view any set of images that are archived regardless of the file extension. this could be likely due to the notion that .zip and .rar files can naturally be handled by the archive drivers that are pre-installed, but i digress.
if ACV and jj can not access the file natively; your options are to convert your .rar files into something that both apps can use/open, or try to rename the extensions of your files to whatever ACV/jj handle.
the ACV info page says that i can handle cbr/rar but as a beta function.
such is the case it is likely that the .rar. file has been archived in a way that can not currently be parsed/handled by your comic view apps.
tl;dr
rename the file until it works, try a different app or get a different comic source.
I like Comic Rack, it have landscape and portrait view, the interface is great, zoom using double touch or pinch to zoom
I was just about to ask the same question. Downloading perfect viewer now
ComicRack :
Pros:
- Interface is nice
- Vertical scrolling is smooth
Cons:
- Doesn't read pdf
Perfect Viewer
Pros:
- Read all formats
Cons:
-Vertical scrolling is jerky
Despite it doesn't handle pdf format, I prefer ComicRack..

CBZ files are really just ZIP files (CBZ = Comic Book ZIP). Rename a Comic saved as ZIP to .CBZ and it will work in your reader.
CBR files are really just RAR files (CBR = Comic Book RAR). Rename a Comic saved as RAR to CBR and it will work in your reader.
I use Cool Reader to view most of my eBooks because it is the most compatible reader I could find (I have a mutt library). It is also easy to navigate and read, unlike apps like Mantano which have tiny useless buttons all over the place. I don't use Adilko because it forces the user to import books into its library, effectively requiring double the space for eBooks: space for my hand-sorted eBook library, and space for its own library. I use BeamReader to view my PDFs because it's the only app I've found that has a text wrap feature. I haven't picked out a comic viewer yet.
I am looking for a browser that can open all non-PDF books in Cool Reader, PDFs in BeamReader, and comics in a comic viewer. I have tried using Root Explorer to open books, but it only works with BeamReader for PDFs. I think it opens .txt files in its own reader.
Is there any single file browser I can use to open all of my eBooks? I'm open to both free and paid options.
Have you tried "Rhythm Software File Manager"?
I use it to open every existing format.
Just remember to associate file extensions with the right apps.
I'm sure it works for CR (html,txt,chm), ezPDF (pdf), ebooka pdf (djvu) opera (htm,html,mht), Documents To Go 3.0 (doc,ppt) and so on..

I just installed it, and I love it. It opens all my files perfectly, it has a great interface, and it even has root r/w support. Thanks for the recommendation!
I have AnExplorer and I can find them with the Videos option in the menu, but I'd like to know the actual save location. I can't seem to find it, and I haven't found any answers by Googling. I'd like to be able to access the videos from my computer to transfer over to my laptop.
I appeared to have found it:
Code:
/storage/emulated/11/Movies/Game Recordings
Now the problem is that I can't access it it. Neither from my laptop, nor from the Shield. From my laptop, I access it via the Network, and my only option is "Internal" which brings me to the internal part, and not the "Phone" part that the file explorers label it (I guess the root filesystem? I don't know...).
And on the Shield, I have tried AnExplorer and ES File Explorer, and ES file explorer shows a blank folder after I get to "emulator". For AnExplorer, after "emulator" it says "Failed to query documents."
The only work around I have found is using ES File Explorer, adding my Google Drive account, and cutting and pasting the video that way (I use the Movies file link). I have Google Drive hooked up to my laptop, so it automatically downloads it to my laptop's hard drive.
