MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Sync or Transfer CC settings and eBook Library from One Android Device to Another

I've been using wireless sync to download books to my Nexus 7 tablet, this is not the whole calibre library. I have now bought a Samsung TAB A and wish to get the same setup on the new device in as painless a manner as possible.

At first I considered drop box and cloud connection but that seems to only be a poor substitute for the wireless connection to Calibre on my laptop and can't be used to sync state between multiple devices.

Is there a way to use Google Drive or DROPBOX to at least copy the books if not the settings?

Is there any export/import or Backup/restore mechanism I would be able to use?

I tried the CC FAQ, searching the web and this forum without luck. I thought it would be simple given that many people read from multiple devices.

Hopefully someone comes up with an answer, if not I'll continue looking...
