Note taking and PDF king peeps - step inside - Nexus 7 Themes and Apps

Post what app you use to take notes and also read PDFs .
Notes :Used gnotes,
Just downloaded NoteIt- text, drawing, seems pretty solid out of the box, but can't comment on full usability yet.
PDF : Was on repligo , now back to ezpdf but still want Something smoother and better for annotations (note it has PDF support, but can't highlight)
I feel like I've tried everything but maybe apps have been updated or new ones have popped up (like note it)

Annnnnnnnnd typo in the title. Ocd is bugging out

I have been using Google Keep for notes. I really like it. It's simple, minimal, and the notes sync to your google account.
As far as PDF's go, I use either the PDF reader in Docs to Go, or the Kindle app. Both are pretty nice.

Notes:
Keep
Hashnote
For PDFs...well...I dont read PDFs, but I installed Adobe Reader just in case.

For notes, of course Google Keep.
For pdf files, Adobe's latest Reader app is pretty cool. Aldiko may also help.

[Q] Can anyone recomend a good RSS reader?

Hi,
I've tried a number of them so far and none of them are what I want:
gReader for whatever reason deletes a post as soon as you've read it return to the list of articles it didn't do that until this version and I can't figure out how to turn that off, there's no OPML import or export and it seems to not find a single URL I feed it for any new valid feed.
I've tried others but so far none has done what I need it to do, just download feeds, and images, if associated, have links showing, be customizable in that it can be organized into folders for feeds, not take over the entire device while sycing as gReader now all of a sudden does. it's become a huge CPU hog while syncing.
Any and all suggestiosn would be most appreciated.
NewsRob is what I've been using since I got my first Android phone, sounds like it should do what you're looking for and it can sync with Google Reader as well.

Funny, just installed it. How do you import or export an OPML file using this application though?
I have looked extensively for a good rss reader. I found Newsroom to be the best out of all of them. Personal opinion, but give it a try. Its functional, pretty, and works well.

I appreciate the recommendation, only issue with Newsroom is that it doesn't have gReader support. there is a four-month tech support thread that has the devs at the trileet company saying because the back end of Newsroomis proprietary and google reader isn't, that they would lose major functionality.
If they can't support google feeds then it's just not worth it.
I think gReader works great. I was one of the people who pushed for 2 way syncing and he made it happen. As for the article disappearing after you read it and press back, it's been like that for a while. If you want to save it, mark it as unread or star it. This is exactly the same way it works in Google Reader. I add or subtract rss feeds maybe once a year so I don't care how well gReader does it. I can just wait till I get to a real computer and do it there.
I use Greed (Lite) - free in the market. It integrates nicely with google reader, has the ability to follow links, and filter read/unread. Also has widgets that can be placed on your homescreens. No importing/exporting required... just provide your google account info and it syncs all of your feeds/folders.
Its worth a try... doesnt cost anything
Been using FeedR. It does cost some money, but its a very good reader with Google Reader support. Works fast, and looks great.

I currently use gReader. The problem you're describing about articles disappearing is that the app is set on default too only show new articles. The circle icon toggles between showing new articlesand showing all articles. Just toggle that and it will give you back your read articles. The check mark icon is to mark all articles as read. After I'm done skipping through the articles I don't want too read, I mark off all the remaining articles as read so it doesn't show up anymore
ive been using pulse and feedr. and so far. feedr seems to be the best one ive tried

Google Books & ePub files compatibility???

Hello everyone,
I already know the answer to this but do you think there is a way to hack the google books apk to force it to read ePub files? I am currently using adilko as my ereader and its okay but I just love the page turning animation and smoothness of google books. Adilkos animations don't come close to google books.
Anyone know if this can be done?
Does anyone know of any other readers that have a great page turning animation?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda app-developers app
I've looked into it and I'm pretty sure there's no way of importing an epub into the Books app. I'm no expert so I don't know how much XDA hacking sweetness would have to go into making it happen if it's even possible in the first place.
I agree though. The animations and stability of Google Books is sweet. Importing and using books from the cloud would be awesome.
the Nook app is the best ive found. not as smooth as google books is, but the the customization, look, and sideloading make it the one i use the most.
I agree with ianflo. Nook seems to be (one of) the best for sideloaded epub viewing.
Personally I have been using Aldiko for my book reading needs. Works quite well if I do say so myself.

Been using Mantano reader myself, page turning, while not as good as google books, as pretty close to it. Side loading is easy, just browse to whereever you stored the epubs on your device and import.
Its an almost perfect reader, just needs a TOC button.
Two things. First, I need to make sure my favorite epub reader is mentioned, fbreader.
Second, does google books support side-loading any format? If so, calibre may be able to transform epubs to that format. It's a Windows tool for managing ebook libraries.
Calibre is a multiplatform program, runs quite well on Linux btw. http://calibre-ebook.com/download
As for sideloading on google books, nope, the files are stored somewhere, where haven't a clue, in what format, ditto.
So I tried nook' its OK its not all that great. I downloaded one of their free books how do you side load epub files for the nook?
Mantanos free version does not include the page turn effect and the pay is like 6 bucks. A bit pricey if you ask me. I currently use aldiko and fbreader. They are both great but the page turn animation is lacking big time.
There has to be a way to side load these files through Google books no? Even if you convert the file using caliber?
Edit: figured out how to sideload to the nook app.

I just recently switched from aldiko to moon+ reader. I don't use the page turn animation so I'm not sure how smooth it is, but the app as a whole is just fantastic. So much control over every part of the app it's just great.
It also has a nice sync feature using dropbox. I can put my N7 down and when I go out and open the same book on my phone it syncs the page to where I last left off.
I bought the pro version after about 10 minutes of use on the free one.
I have been preaching for a way to load epubs into google books for a long time now. All the other book reader apps have some kind of compromise or niggle that annoys me. I don't understand why google doesn't just open it up to sideloading.

Got my Nexus7 last week and while researching Kindle and Nook book rental options...I found out Google / Google Books is making an effort... See below
“In 2004, The New York Public Library was one of several libraries taking part in this ground-breaking digital venture with Google; others included the libraries at Michigan, Stanford, Harvard, and Oxford Universities. Since 2004, other libraries and institutions have signed partnership agreements including Princeton University, Cornell University, the University of California system, and the Committee for Institutional Cooperation (CIC). They even have a nice list of Google's Library Partners, from around the world too.
Been using Moon+ Reader for a couple months now, tons of features, page turn is like pulling the corner of a page and flipping it as opposed to Googles dragging the middle of the page, page turn works nice, though not quite as pretty as googles, although it is more dynamic in that it is not the same every time you turn a page. If you hold as you slide finger and move finger down as pulling you will see page react accordingly, or just tap side and flip animation. You can import and sort books according to directories which is awesome, I have a different directory for every author and sort works very well. Like the above reader said I used it for a few minutes and purchased the Pro immediately, it just works well.
Also like the person above mentioned the cloud sync is amazing. I have an S3, Galaxy Nexus, and N7, use each of them at different times, and whatever I'm reading is left off in the same spot on the next device I use.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flyersoft.moonreader&feature=related_apps
Another app worth mentioning for ePub & PDF books is the Kobo app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kobobooks.android&hl=en
I have tried nearly every reader out there and the best by far for me was cool reader. The front end is not as nice as some others but the ability to configure is great.

You can't but you should be able to read them if you download the Nook app for Android.
Gotta mention Mantano Premium reader here. The Page turn animation is pretty much the same as the iOS animation, and just as smooth. Feels as smooth as it can possibly be. I've tried dozens of book reader apps and all have been disappointing except for Mantano. It's a little pricey but I consider it a core must have for a tablet so it's definitely worth it. Packed full of other features too.

What are some of the better Ereader apps on Android?

I'm an avid ebook Ereader (ePub specifically) and was looking for some decent Ereader apps for my Nexus 4. I love the iBooks app on my iPad, specifically it's ability to display progress as PAGES in the book, rather than percentages. That just doesn't work for me, so if there was a decent app with a page number progress bar that you guys use, I'd love to hear about it! Thanks!
Update:
Thanks to the users who replied to this thread and sent me in the right direction, I found what I was looking for! While reaching the clean lines and streamlined interface of Google Play Books was a bit out of reach, the two apps that I narrowed it down to in the end were Mantano Reader and Aldiko. They had a nice easy to use interface that was very much in line with the interface that I was looking for, coming here from Apple's iBooks app.
I managed to sync my entire Calibre library effortlessly, using their Calibre Companion App (only $3), so that was a pleasant surprise. I tried the free content server method, but apparently that's not a viable method on Nexus devices because of their lack of some sort of usb storage compatibility (I wasn't completely sure but it just didn't work despite my best efforts).
At that point, I believed it to be a toss up, until I began to import a few of my books in. I discovered the covers were rather off on both, despite the fact I had painstakingly inserted accurate and high quality covers on all my ebooks. I researched why that could be and learned that some apps can only display jpegs as covers, so I went back and converted the epubs back to epub with the option "No SVG Cover" checked in EPUB OUTPUT during conversion. I reloaded the books and it seems like there was one true winner. Aldiko!
Yes, it doesn't have all the options that some of the other readers do, but for me, when I'm reading, I want everything to get out of the way except my paper and my text and for those of you who enjoy reading the way it is with physical books, no shaded progress bars on the bottom and such, try this out!
Thank you for all your help!

I personally use Mantano Ebook Reader Lite but in the past I used Moon reader and Aldiko...of course Kindle, Nook, Kobe, Google etc each have their own app for their books and you can find alot of free (promotional) books for those @ http://blog.booksontheknob.org/
Calibre is an PC app that can manager your ebook collection between your pc and your phone..it can also convert formats (it doesn't break drm without additional 3rd party apps).

I love Calibre! It's what I used to keep my library updated with the proper tags before syncing it all to my iPad. It's great. But okay, Mantano reader, how does that app show progress as you get through a book? Does it do iBooks style page numbers or is it a percentage?

It uses page #'s as you requested....as to whether they are iBook style I have no idea as I don't have any apple devices. A physical "page" may involve you swiping several times before it increments however as a screen does not = a page.
Moon+ Reader Pro is my only one eReader! Constantly improved by the dev, it's perfect!
I highly recommend FBReader. It indicates progress in pages rather than percentage as you required. It has built-in search for free ebooks across multiple catalogues and, best of all as far as I'm concerned, you can select shade of sepia for page colour that is easier on these eyes than that of any other ereader app I've tried.

FBReader is brilliant. It has a lot of customisation options and supports mobi and epub formats. Being able to slide your finger up and down the left side of the page to change brightness is my fav feature.
FBReader is my favorite e-reader by far. I keep Aldiko around for reading PDFs as well.
another vote for Mantano. Works great for a large collection, esp if you've used Calibre to properly tag everything. I read a lot of books that are part of series, so it's nice to have something that correctly sorts everything. Good on both the phone and a tablet.

This is the best full feature reader by far. Right now I'm enjoying Fabrik though, clean and simple.
So many conflicting opinions! I was looking for detailed reviews for said apps but the ones that do exist are such poor reviews and don't even really seem to grasp what differentiates a good ereader from another. Can some of you post some screens of your go to ereader and whether it has, to the best of your knowledge, progress in page numbers and integration with Calibre?
Updated:
I just tried out Mantano, Moon+, and FBReader and the latter seems much less polished in comparison. Google Play Books smokes all of them, but Mantano Reader comes pretty close, although it offers less customization than Moon+.

How do you sync your Calibre books with all its tags into Mantano? Is that a premium feature?
Aldiko is the best ebook reader I've found. I like it enough that I bought the premium version which basically adds no features. It properly opens all ebooks I've tried and has a very attractive design with a good feature set.

It might be a little bit of a hack, but it works. My Calibre folder is in dropbox, and I have Dropsync on my tablet set to monitor that folder. Then I just run import in Mantano every once in a while and everything works perfectly. Not sure if its a premium feature, I did purchase the app but I think its just part of it.
Fabrik is an excellent ereader. There is a free ad version and a paid one w/out adds and a few more features. It is attractive but pretty minimal on the settings side of things but has all the important features that I need: TTS, Decent fonts, and Dropbox syncing built in. Honestly the Dropbox syncing is so simple to set up (it uses oauth), you can pull down any book you have locally and it syncs your last bookmark seamlessly across all your android devices, I have it on my N4 & N10 and it's been working brilliantly. I had to support the dev by getting the paid version, not for everyone but I highly recommend trying it out.

For having books read to me I use ReadBoox....
I'm a fan of minimalistic ereaders with no concern to cloud storage, so I've used coolreader extensively. Lately I've been using FBreader and am quite a fan.
I might try the other ones mentioned, though. Could use a bit more elegance! Although Moon+ page flips didn't feel responsive at all, for some reason.

Best App for Reading EPUB?

Hey all, what's the best ebook app that supports local libraries?
Aldiko Book Reader is quite nice. Otherwise if the file isn't too large I personally like to upload to Google Play Books.

Most of the readers I've tried from the Play Store are very good (Moon+ Reader, Nook, Kindle, FBRreader, Overdrive), but a few years ago I purchased Aldiko Pro and it has been perfect for me. There is a free version as well. I like the controls and options, the bookshelf looks nice and I've never once had any problem with it. I particularly like being able to make shortcuts to the books I'm currently reading, so I have an icon of the book cover to click on that will open the app and take me right to the last page I read.
It was one of the first apps I installed on my Nexus 7, I've probably read over a hundred books with it and I use it almost daily. But almost all the readers are free or have a free version, try them all! Read a chapter or two with each one and see which is most appealing to you personally.
I used to use the Nook reader until PlayBooks gained the ability to upload your ePubs to your Google account. Now i use PlayBooks for my reading. Like the fact that it syncs where you left off, bookmarks, markers etc across your devices.

+1 now that you can upload your epubs or pdfs, play book is my recommendation. Manteno would be second. I find the formatting better on play book than manteno. The syncing between devices just seals the deal for play book. Manteno charges to sync between devices...

PS - the Nook app does all of this also. for free (unlike some of the others..obviously PlayBooks is free as well).
The thing I like about Nook over PlayBooks is that Nook gives me more text formatting options. Mainly, the ability to change margin widths. I have found this especially useful for reading some e-books.
Most of the big name readers have these sorts of additional text formatting options, however some charge for sync capabilities, etc.
I personally think that the actual contents of my books look the best in the Nook app (once you play around and get the formatting setup how you want it) and with free syncing between all of your devices, it's all win.
To each their own, obviously.

I highly recommend Google Play Books for epubs as well. It is very nice looking, smooth, and the sync feature is great. I also LOVE the look of the widget, it is the centerpiece of my home screen. My only complaint is no support for my comics in cbr format, and also it seems that pdf pages (both pdf books and cbr->pdf conversions) load rather slowly at times.
But if you will solely be using epub, you can't go wrong here. You may have problems uploading converted epubs though.

Yeah, Moon Reader is great, and Moon+ Reader is 50% off!

I seem to have a lot of problems with the epubs I have uploaded to play books, they take forever to load. I usually don't bother waiting. Aldiko and Moon+ are both good options. I also highly recommend aldiko sync to sync between devices.
I also tried a few different EPUB readers but Aldiko was the one that stayed my Nexus.
So I'm playing with Google Play Books, and generally I like it. One problem however, on several books it won't adjust the font size. I can change the setting but there's no change in the display. Any thoughts? Is the epub file hard-coded or something? Thanks...
I've tested many epub software and my favorite by far is moon+ reader. You can configure it to be perfect for you. The other soft doesn't have near as much setting to adjuste your reading to be as confortable as possible. But yeah you will have to take 10/20 minutes the first time configuring it (and have a few more tweak later too to do to be perfect). And that the only soft that render all my epub perfectly; during my testing I find some reader cut some text for no reason (aldiko in particuliar) but maybe that have been patched.
Sorry for my not so good english

If you are only looking for PDF reader, then just go with any really. All are good!
However, you are looking for PDF reader + epub, mobi etc support go for moon+reader. It has speech and many cool options
If you are looking for PDF+ Office documents, just try office365
I am using both apps (paid versions) and there is not any app better than them in my opinion. Free ones are as great but Office365 free version won't let you edit documents.

I paid for Moon+ Reader Pro in the past, but I've found EBookDroid works a lot better.
I like Foxit.
I tried EbookDroid and even though I liked it, it doesn't have a decent way to change quickly between PDFs. I think I'm gonna stick to iAnotate.
just go for adobe reader.
Try RepliGo Reader, ability to add notes and stuff

I read a lot pdf's on my nexus and i tried most of pdfs readers and i can truly say that mantano reader is the best for big pdf files
Mantano is slow as hell and does not support in pdf files included page numbers.
I have to read an insane amount for school, so i personally use Moon Reader or Foxit for those few PDF's that Moon Reader has a problem rendering. Kingsoft is nice for just reading but doesnt have any good markup options like Moon or Foxit. Moon is pretty feature rich and has options for both day and night time reading to reduce strain on your eyes which is helpful if you have to go late into the night.

I like Adobe Reader but the tabs system is really important for me. I study engineering and I need to have one PDF with exercises opened and another PDF with the theory, that's the way I'm used to work with my computer and I bought a tablet mainly because it's very light and portable.
The ability to write notes and underline words/sentences on PDFs isn't very important to me, I don't use it.
ezPDF reeder is the best on android, and 10% of GoodReeader on IOS
using xda app-developers app
I tried a lot of PDF readers only ones with both good text reflow and reversed/nightview ifound were ezPDF Reader (paid) and Adobe Reader. I think paid Moon+ has that too with PDFI. For epub it is by far the best imo and I am consisering buyong pro.
In my opinion every reader should have reversed/nightview for when one has to read much or at night.So ridiculous that so much pdf readers don"t have that or automatic resizing text to fit screen They shouldn't even be called a reader-app.
In EzPDF Reader you can switch easy to other pdf's via recent documents. It will remember the pages of all the pdf's where you were at. If that is what you mean. I like it a lot it has a lot of options. .
But if Moon + pro is as good with pdf as with epub I might switch in the near future. (It has better animated page flip with epub than Ez with pdf also by the way).
try SmartQ Reader.it's the best PDF reader that i ever used

I think EBookDroid's tab interface is very decent.
