Just to follow up on this.

I like AlReader, but I would like Aldiko better if it didn't keep crashing on my Vox. So I contacted Aldiko Support and we went back and forth with a debugging app but in the end no success. The Support Team in the end conceded and gave me an old version, Aldiko Premium v.1.2.9, which works great, not crashing due to lack of resources, but lacks a lot of the options of v.3. so I went back to using AlReader.

Searching the web I found various older versions of Aldiko. First I downloaded v.3.0.23, which is about a year old, but that too crashed on me when asking it to drill deeper into the font options. Then I tried v.2.1.0 and found it ran better and didn't crash. It's also a lot more like V.3 than v.1 and I could could set it up just like I had v.3. So that's what I would recommend if you like Aldiko and want to keep using your Vox.
