There are many books in the Android Market that I'd like to buy for my Aldiko reader, but I need to know that there's a good way to back them up. I used my ES File Manager to look for the books but there is no ebook folder or aldiko folder. These are drm-free books.

I have the motorola devour and the latest aldiko, i have imported one book before, and today i tried importing a few, both multiple at a time and one at a time and i could not get it to "find" any of the books, they were all converted to epub via calibre, and all placed in the import folder(in ebook) anyone know any solutions?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI downloaded Aldiko and I'd like to purchase some books for it. I've seen some sites that sell in the epub format but they are a bit on the expensive side. I like the prices that Amazon and Barnes & Noble offer for their ebooks but I think they are in a proprietary format. I guess my question is, where is a good place to purchase epub books at a reasonable price?

View 13 Replies View RelatedI have a problem on my Asus ME301T tablet with the Play Books app (I'm running android 4.2). Regular text based books work just fine, however, comic books show as blank pages. Sometimes it will load a few pages if I rotate the screen a few times.
I've tried to reinstall the app and redownload the comics without luck. It works fine on my Samsung i9000 running android 4.3.
Before I upgraded to 2.2 I had to find a lot of memory space on my phone. I deleted and number of applications including Aldiko. I had only two books on that; just started using it. One I was reading, a download from Project Gutenberg, and the other, an epub, book was next in line. However when I reinstalled Aldiko, after the upgrade, the book I was reading is there but the epub book is not. The epub book is on /sd card/Import but when I ask Aldiko to import it says nothing found. How can I get Aldiko to import my book?

View 3 Replies View RelatedNew to Android; very grateful for the help! I tried searching the web and other threads but the words "free", "ebook" and "library" return thousands of results that don't help. Supposedly at my library you can get books in ebook form. The website says they are compatible with my PC, the Nook and the Sony devices. Is there a way to read these on the Android and if so, how is that accomplished? Also, I read that you can read Google books on Android phones, but when I got to Opera on my phone and go to books.google.com/m and click on a book nothing happens.

I am picking these two books because of another popular thread saying I should have an Android book and a java reference but no one mentioned a book for either.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been looking into Android development, and while I understand the concepts, all of the Java stuff goes right over my head. XML is easy to pick up on, but I quickly found out that advanced Android development is simply not possible without a good understanding of Java. I looked at this book and it seems pretty good: http://www.amazon.com/Java-Tutorial-Short-Course-Basics/dp/0321334205. Is this good material for a true beginner, or will it be a little too advanced? I need something that will start out very slowly and explain the concepts, ideas and functions clearly. The last thing I want is a book that's incredibly complex and hard on a beginner. I have absolutely NO knowledge of Java or any coding, so I need to start with the basics. Is Android Java a lot different than regular Java? I know there are some differences, but if I studied regular Java could I quickly relate that to Android? I wouldn't want to read a Java book then get back into Android and be lost due to the changes. With this in mind please recommend me some books. I'm very enthusiastic about Android and have brilliant ideas for applications. I just need the prerequisites for Android before I can go full force.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI didn't see this posted anywhere here and thought it was cool. For those of you that like to read. (I totally copy and pasted this from the Tmobile forum.)Google has launched a mobile version of its Book Search application which gives Android and iPhone users access to over 1.5 million out of copyright texts from authors including Austen, Dickens and Shakespeare. Google has optimised the texts for iPhone and Android handsets, and users will need an internet connection to view them. The texts are separated under handy categories including General Fiction and Mystery, and the service keeps a list of recently viewed eBooks and allows you to bookmark your page.

I'm using Meridian to listen to audio books, but I would sure love to find a player that let's me choose when to start listening. Meridian remembers where I left off in a book, but one slight bump and it goes back to zero. Sure would be nice to have it start at "minute 210" or wherever.

Five years ago I used to program in SAS. Since then I've been doing software QA of various types. Mostly manual (video games + web apps) testing with a tiny bit of automation.
I'd really like to shift careers back into programming. Specifically the Android platform has caught my attention. These are the books I've been reading and working through.
Learning Java, Third Edition - O'Reilly
Beginning Android 2 - Mark Murphy
Hello, Android - Ed Burnette
However, I think I need something that looks at programming from a less language dependent standpoint. Something that takes a bird's eye view if that makes sense.
It's very easy to see how particular functions work, but I'm looking to get a better sense of how all the pieces fit together. How does one split up an app into individual classes and packages? Do I have a method in main that shuffles my deck of cards (object) or does the class deck of cards have a method I can call to shuffle itself?
I think I'm looking for a book on object oriented design? I've also been working through the tutorials and examples at http://developer.android.com/resources/index.html and also in the three books I've been reading so far. Maybe I just need to spend more time coding though?
