MM SD external path
Hi,
I'm using CC to manage my books on my devices and Moon Reader to read them. Today I have instaled on my phone a MM ROM and wanted to keep the SD Card as external. In this configuration I can not use MoonReader to read a book I see in CC, MoonReader will open but will not open the book. I think it's because the two apps have differents pathes for my librairy: For CC it's: "/mnt/media_rw/4D96-1407/Books" and for MR it's: "/storage/4D96-1407/Books". As neither has the possibility to modify the path manualy, I don't know how to change that... Is there a solution? Than you, sorry for the english... |

I am not sure what you are doing. When you use CC to "Read" the book, CC passes the full path to Moon+. Moon+ should show the path that CC gave it.
Questions:
Note 1: I suspect that the "MM Rom" is doing something strange with permissions. Did you reformat the SD card after updating the ROM? Note 2: You can attempt to change CC's path in CC's Settings / Formats and Folders. I don't doing this will have any effect at all. |

Thank You for you answer Sir,
Here are the answers at your questions, but before I wanted to say that CC is the only app in my phone to show this path (/mnt/media_rw/4D96-1407/) for my SD card. Rocket Player, X-plore, Acrobat Reader have "/storage/4D96-1407/" and I can open a book with MoonReader or Acrobat from within X-plore without trouble. Answers: I'm using the last version of CC: 5.1.0.3 (320) My version of Android is Marsmallow ROM, 6.0.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto...f-6-0-t3284309) with this Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto...4-108-t3169304 With a MM ROM, I wanted to say a Marshmallow ROM...sorry. Q:"Are you opening the book from inside CC or with Moon+?" That's the point, when I try to open a epub in CC it open MoonReader but but it don't open the book. If I want to open the book with MoonReader I have to search for the book from within MoonReader and open it. As I'm using the Calibre ID as the file name (for reading positon syncronisation reason) if I import the books in MoonReader I will find it because MoonReader read the tags, but in Acrobat Reader I will have just a list of title without signification. The filemanager i'm using (X-plore) show me the path:"/storage/4D96-1407/" I have reinstaled the ROM with TWRP after a try to use the SD as internal storage. Before the instal I format the card as external storage to put the ROM, Gapps, etc on it and reboot to TWRP. I formated the data, erase everything but SD and instal the ROM. I tried 2 things with CC: Instal it from the Playstore and configure it from zero, and reinstal a Titanium backup from a Lolipop ROM, both with the same result. When I want to change the folder in the CC settings, it's posible but with its strange path. I can tell CC to use the folder I want, it's just that for CC this folder's name is: /mnt/media_rw/4D96-1407/Books and for the others apps it's: /storage/4D96-1407/Books. CC can write the book on the folder, connect with the PC and everything but it will not send a book to a reader app. I thank you very much for your time and your app. If I need a reader like MoonReader, I just love CC and I'm ready to reinstal everything to make it work. I send you the CC debug log, it has only one book for test purpose. |

"Does the path /mnt/media_rw/4D96-1407/ exist?"
Yes, but I see it only with a root explorer! I don't know how CC can know/use it, it doesn't has or ask for root access. When the apps ask for storage permissions, it's the same little window for CC or the readers apps. Is it possible to use an app (like my file manager) to search and select the folder? Thank you for your time, I knew that this kind of ROM are not perfect |

I think that the problem might be more general than just you. I don't have a device with an SD card running API 23. It seems that SD card support has changed enough in API 23 to break my code.
If I sent you experimental APK files, would you try them? |
