I'm not sure if anyone else knew this, but I haven't seen a thread like this outside of someone posting a really odd program a long while back. However, I recently found out the kindle app will read MOBI ebooks. To add them to your phone use your favorite filemanager and simple add the .mobi file to Applications\Data\48195fb4-ee0e-e011-9264-00237de2db9e\IsolatedStore\kindle
Just add whatever you like and when you power up the app it will read them. Just a fun find that I had not seen posted that I realized while messing with my phone after getting a kindle touch. Enjoy!
Dude i love you! Thanks for this info really helped me allot. Kindle App is the best app out there for reading e-books.Now that i can put my own mobi books on it is just perfect.
Thank you so much for posting this. This is so awesome. But what files manager did u used?

You are most welcome. I stumbled upon this messing with my new kindle and was I wondered if the app would do the same thing and it most certainly does.

As far as I know there isn't a working one for the lumnia but I used TouchXplorer along with one of the windows apps in the development section to actually get the files onto my phone. As far as I know this only works if you are interop-unlocked as TouchXplorer requires interop.
An update:
Dump .mobi files at this path:
Android\data\com.amazon.kindle\files
and restart the kindle app..
Wow..cannot wait to try this on my phone.
Which file manager did you use anyway?

Hi
I realize this question isn't xda specific but I didn't know where else to ask. Anyways you guys are always helpful.
just bought my desire today but I can't seem to find an option to create a document in quickoffice. I open up the program but it just says "no files found on sd card".
Now I don't believe that the program can only edit documents that I transfer onto it, that would be absurd.
Anyone got any clues on how to acheive creating a new file?
I was under the impression that no version of Quickoffice for Android could currently edit or create office documents - it's view only as far as I'm aware.
If you want to edit/create, you need DocumentsToGo.
Regards,
Dave
It doesn't have the option I'm afraid.....
Check out documents to go on Android market. It's not free but I believe its on offer at the moment $14.99 I believe..... well worth the money
Ahhhh foxmeister you JUST got me there!
QuickOffice is a read only application.
If you want to create/edit MS Office Docs, get Docs To Go (from the market). There's a free viewer and a paid-for app for creating and editing. I bought it recently for the promotional price of $14.99 (about £9.99 in the UK) - just checked and it's still on offer.
Edit: Looks like zippyioa beat me to it - though I believe the price is $14.99.
Thankyou all for the info. Documents to go looks like the app for me. Very helpful.

Sorry, I just got a new Kindle Fire, and after spending several minutes trying to figure out how to make a new document in QuickOffice (which comes standard and can't be removed),
I just have to agree with this post... THAT IS TOTALLY ABSURD!
Please tell me the paid version is not similarly limited.
Why in hell do you excavate a one and a half-year-old thread and post something about Kindle Fire, which has absolutely nothing to do with the desire??
why do you want to create a document on your phone? just curious, because i can not imagine I would make an essay on my desire and if for note-taking there are different much better apps
Anyone know of any working youtube downloaders? Seems the ones I have used in the past are all pulled from the market (Freedi was best but they went all Chinese or something ....Youtube Ripper is gone also..along with another one I used whos name escapes me atm)
Are there being deemed warez also and google is facing some legal issues with having them, or am I just blind?
If they are ok to post, could someone please shoot me an apk or a link somewhere to an actual working program?
Thanks in advance!!
Er should be titled TRIED, not tired...but hell I am tired come to think of it lol
I have no Android solution, but I use YouTubeDownloader on the PC & it works great.
Sorry man. I got nothing. I can help if you want a pornhub downloader though lol.
Yes, they do seem to all be disappearing with no rhyme or reason. I have TubeMate 0.9.10 on my phone, here's the APK:
http://db.tt/oM8POF6
And you should probably change your title to something like "YouTube apps disappearing from market?".
ack thank ya for the linky and LOL @ porn ...That actually cracked me up thank you\
Changed title
First off, I need that Porntube downloader please!
Secondly, all the Youtube downloaders are disappearing because Youtube wants you to come to THEIR site to see the videos, not download them and save them. Youtube makes money off advertising when you visit and click stuff, they don't make anything if you download the videos.
That said, I like Jet VD myself. It lets you pick the quality etc and works VERY well. Unfortunately, it was just removed from the market the other day. I'll post the .apk when I get home though, it's free anyway.
That or try googling it.
hey hey hey!

It would be great if you would post it, as I can't seem to find it anywhere.
JetVD is about the best I've seen.
Freedi is the best, I use it myself. It appears to be in Chinese, lol. But after you download it you can change the language and what country your in. Hope this helps.

julian schapman has just released touchxplorer there are some limits
it seems to only work on htc devices. Non htc devices will have to wait a bit...
The device is only meant for chevron unlocked/developer unlocked devices that are HTC
Have fun with it
As a matter of fact, tried it on Samsung Omnia 7 and it didn't work. Very promising

maybe you should read the post before commenting...theres a link and a set of instructions.
Anyhow, already had it loaded on my phone since earlier. Been monitoring his site. It works as advertised. Can't wait till we get some more functionality =D
I like it. Work very well. Top!
One wish I have:
In the folder "Windows", if I mark one file, open this and go back,
its a litle bit sad, that open after from the begining "Windows", and begin not at the last opening.
You have after to scroll a long way down, till you are at the last file you see.
But its only a detail. ;-)
Very good work!
Here we go again.
Some apps in the legit market place and others in the grey market. Yay?
Is it possible to copy WP7 to PC?
works outstandingly! very fast, very smooth on my device. got a custom ringtone!!!!! thanks so much
I actually had this installed for the past week on my HD7 which is what I am typing this post on but just 10 minutes ago a message came up and stated that Touchxplorer has be revoked by Microsoft and it would not let me do anything TILL I uninstalled it. Anyone else getting this problem? Looks like I will have to reinstall it somehow.

Zune likes to relock the device which causes that error... you just need to unlock it again to get it working.... very fun game of unlocking all the time...
There's one bug: sometimes after backing to the previous folder the list displays each item twice. Except that, the app works perfectly.
Just got an error. This app has been revoked by m$hit please uninstall. Should i reinstall it and will it work?

m$hit? Really? You purchased and use a product by a company you refer to as m$hit? You don't seem like the brightest person in the world and definitely not the most mature. I have to hope you're 12 years old, I would prefer to not believe an adult would be so lame.
Work fine on HTC HD7!

You don't. Use Chevron WP7 Ringtone Installer.

Hi I also really tried but I can not find how to install this on my HD7
Can you or somebody please explain how ?
Did any one had success in copying files from WP7 to PC or the other way around?
I used the zune storage hack and copied some word documents on to the device, in the same folder I have put 2 ringtones I know work using ringtone installer from chevron, some photos and other files.
Sadly I can not find them anywhere on the device via Touchxplorer?
Any ideas?
The same the other way around. Found all the folders holding my music/videos (albait not with original file names) and tried copying other files in there including wp7 ringtones. I can see all items that were there when zune added them but none of the one's I copied.
Any solution?
how can i install it on my phone?
Hey everyone, I have a couple questions about rooting a Kindle fire.
I bought one for my wife off of Craigslist for $100. Great shape. works great. Internet browser works great.
It has several applications installed on it related to GO? Like GO launcher EX and GO store, GO weather themes, etc. I thought I could use the GO store to download apps but everytime I would try to search and download I would get no search results not matter what I typed in the search bar.
The guy I bought it from said I could use Android market on it to download apps but I couldnt find the market anywhere on the tablet.
I assumed it needed installed so I downloaded Root Explorer and was following directions to install android market from a Youtube tutorial. Everything was working great until I needed to "move" an exported file to another file location.
The kindle was not giving me the option to move the file and the tutorial said if I didnt have that option I was not rooted.
So can I "reroot" it and then install android market?
Any advice you can give would be great, sorry if this was covered in another thread.
thanks again! :good:
wow thanks for all the info! really helps! Ill try that asap
And no I do not have a kindle fire. I just bought it for her because she wants to be able to read 50 Shades of Grey whenever she wants....lol

by "the first book" do you mean the bible? that's free on most outlets such as the kindle app which is available from the google play store. nobody here is going to direct you to a link to pirate things though... if you must find illegal copies of books I would try searching for digital copies of the book in question on google
I'm trying to put books on my kindle app for my sgs3 and they wont show up. In the kindle folder the only other folder is an acw folder that is empty and I've tried putting the books in there, putting them just in the kindle folder itself, and also making another folder and putting them in there and they wont show up for anything. These are the same .mobi files I put on my rooted Motorola electrify and they all showed up fine. If anyone else has had this problem or knows of a solution that would be great

what would be the correct forum? sorry I must be an idiot for thinking of posting it here, I figured since It was on my sgs3 posting it here would be ok, but then again I cant ever ask a question on this site without having half a dozen people tell me I didn't look hard enough for a solution or I posted my question in the wrong place. Its almost as if there's a small portion of actual helpful people and then smug arrogant asshats that make up the rest in this community.
sorry thanks
