Alternatively, install an Android terminal app and learn how to manually add files to an epub. (You might have to root your Android phone and/or enable superuser mode.)
I would say forget the phone exists. It's going to be too much of a hassle and it may not work.

If you are going to edit eBooks, you need to go out and buy a computer. I suggest a computer that runs Windows 10.
