How do you update your OwnCloud server: do you upload the calibre folder of books/documents?

If you want to get your hands dirty in the code, modification 2 (change default download location) looks easy.

To learn to code for Android has a learning curve... It does takes time. It is rewarding, but do not expect to rush the results.
Well, 2 is indeed easy. Just few lines of code change to hard code the external SD path in Max Carta. https://github.com/rickyzhang82/andr...1d7cccf4749c2d

Now I need to do some reading and researching how to use Android ownCloud sync API.
