Book from computer to Google Books?

I have some epubs and mobis on my computer that I really want to get in the Google books app. I love the way it displays text on the screen. Any help?

You can't upload your own books to Google books, that's why I use kindle

I recommend fbreader (there are other options).

Kindle ui while reading the book is just worse than gbooks in my opinion. It doesn't use all of the screen, and the font is worse

Wonder what would happen if you loaded them into Google drive, ,maybe the application picker would come up if it detects the epub format. Just a shot in the dark

Use aldiko. Its free and reads most format. Works good for me.

Smoothest browser for n7

What is the smoothest browser for n7? Dolphin was working good but now it is a little laggy, any of my ideas?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium

Probably Firefox. It would have been the stock JB browser from the Galaxy Nexus if they bothered to include it.

If you want flash support' I would suggest Puffin..Its a great browser to live stream videos on flash based players..Plus its very smooth..Should definitely try it out..

stock browser

Do you know any download link for the apk?

That bowser can't display a webpage properly' worst I tried in my opinion.

For me, I'd say it's Chrome. Love the sharing of pages between my PC, RAZR, and N7. And I haven't experienced any problems in it.
Sure, there's no flash, but that's no big deal for me.

Firefox is working nicely here.

Smooth?

Quicktime: browser or phone?

I don't know much about quicktime support.
Is there any way to get quicktime support on the S4? Is it something on the phone itself or is it a matter of browser? I'm using Chrome, so if it was browser related you'd think Chrome would have included it.
I know there are several video converters available, but I don't think that would work when you're trying to watch a video online and don't have it downloaded.
Is there any way to bring more video format support for browsing on this phone?

What's your favorite lightweight browser to use on the KF?

I have always ran Chrome as my default browser on my OG Kindle Fire. However, I feel it is slowing the device down more and more, especially when multitasking.
I just installed Dolphin Mini but have only used it once or twice. What do you guys recommend for a lightweight browser on the KF??

First, rule I learned from Chrome: Chrome=RAM Hogger
Use Stock Browser, UC Browser, Dolphin Jetpack(Heavy, but Super Fast), and Opera &Mini.

Definitely not Chrome.
Stock browser or Dolphin Jetpack. Firefox too.

Chrome =! Light weight
AOSP Browser = Lightweight
Chrome is the buggiest app I've ever user. It was slow on my sensation, it's slow on my Nexus 4, my brother's N7, and definitely on my KF7.

Chrome is just bad. Its slow, eats RAM, crashes too much, and redraws too much when multitasking. I use the stock AOSP browser now.

Stock AOSP browser and Lightning+ browser.

Never ever ever use chrome on anything besides a PC or chrome book.

The new Dolphin has replaced Chrome as my favorite browser. Regular Dolphin, not mini. Give it a try.

I use Dolphin as my regular browser and it works great. Tried Lighting too, but I think Dolphin performs better.

After trying basically every Android browser, I found out Opera Classic has the best performance+features on the kindle fire. You should give it a try

Best browser for tf300 one that works good

Good with hyperlinks and doesn't just highlight or inactive when using the keyboard
Looking for something responsive I have tried chrome and stock browser and dolphin mini browser all lag a bit

Hi mate, i'm using lighting + browser, very fast and supports also flash player (since tf300 has 4.2.1 jb, in my other nexus 7 with rom 4.3 flash doesn't work correctly)

The best... Maxthon HD

cromi-x stock browser or dolphin

Dolphin
