Cool Reader on Android - Page 6

Mastiff · 01-18-2011, 02:57 AM

Buggins, I would love it if it's possible to do.

I'm not in a hurry. But I can not get back the normal size fonts on my NC. I have gone up to font size 56 but it's too small to read.

Are you talking about bit font size limit (50)? It's fixed in one of latest builds.
At least size 72 is working. Is it too small?

Mastiff · 01-18-2011, 03:18 AM

Nope, that's not it. On the previous version my Nook Color (technically my son's NC, I'm waiting for my Adam) had a font size of 26 that was pretty good. But now I can't get the font any bigger no matter what I do. 22 and 72 are the same, and they are far to small to read. Maybe 1/5 of what 26 used to be. Changing font doesn't do anything about the size either.

Very strange.
Doesn't clean reinstall help?
If not, could you send me logs after font size change attempt?

Mastiff · 01-18-2011, 06:38 AM

I must admit (with a hint of blushing...) that I have no idea how to do a clean install on Android. I have been using computers since DOS 2, but Android is sort of a new beast to me. I tried to find the previous version APK file to revert, but couldn't. I now tried to use a program that's on the rooted NC setup, Uninstaller, and then getting Cool Reader from Market. Is that a clean reinstall? It seems like it because I was back to the standard settings on everything. But still it's unreadable. I tried to change to 72 points, but that didn't change anthing.

And of course I will send you the logs. Where in the Android system are they?

If I could only combine your reader with the style of Aldiko that would be awesome!

fdis101 · 01-18-2011, 07:37 AM

Buggins, the new version 3.0.41-3 doesn't seem to remember my last position. It always return to the previous page (e.g if I left at page 10, the next time I start CR it open page 9 instead).

I am using Cool Reader on my Archos 101 in landscape mode with 2 pages. Hope you can fix this soon.

Cheers!

Nevermind. Didn't realize there is a new version. It seems to be working now in version 3.0.41-5.

By the way, any chance of a Swedish hyphenation support?

Uninstall, then install from market acts as clean reinstall.

Logs can be captured by application Android System Info and saved to file:

OK, I managed to get the log. There's a lot of stuff, but I did do the stuff with Cool Reader just before I saved the logs, so I think it's at the top. Is there anything in it that could hurt my privacy? I tried to PM you the log, but it was too long, and it wasn't possible to do attachments on PM's it seems. If you PM me your mail address I'll mail it to you.

If you have a DropBox account you can save the file in a public folder and provide the URL to the person.

Mastiff · 01-18-2011, 09:52 AM

I don't even have a Facebook account... The only thing I have on the web are forum accounts and E-mail accounts. But you gave me an idea, thanks! I'll use Sprend. That works without an account.

Hopefully, there is a chance

Try cr3.0.41-6 from http://sourceforge.net/projects/cren...r3/cr3-3.0.41/

I've added Swedish and Polish dictionaries.

Thanks! It's working great!

Now all that I'm missing is a bookshelf made of wood imitation. That would make Cool Reader perfect.

steven522 · 01-18-2011, 10:44 AM

I'm not sold on the bookshelf look. It might appeal to someone showing off their reader to others, but when it comes down to actually reading on the thing, I prefer a standard file browser and keeping my ebooks divided into my own folders.
