calibre, version 1.35.0
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device
As always, thanks!

There were some changes in calibre 1.36 that might help here. Probably not, but in any event the changes will cause errors to be reported faster. No hurry to upgrade, but if you feel like it ...

I'll send both the CC and Calibre debug logs. I did connect again successfully, but I cancelled the connection on CC the first time because I had the previous error msg from Calibre up that I needed to copy and I didn't know if it would go away or cause a problem. That was at 11:34 am and the initial problem happened at 10:39 am.


Edit: I don't see the CC debug log where it belongs, so I sent just the Calibre log for now. I'll send the CC log later when I get back home.
The debug logs were moved to Android/data/com.multipie.calibreandroid/files/calibre.companion.debug.log.txt to avoid the log being read-only if a person upgrades to kitkat with the library on an SD card.
