My problem here tonight is with my Nexus 7 2012 model. I can only use it now as an ebook reader as apps don't work at all on it. Well I did use it as an e-reader...
Tony had got me a file of books I had been looking for. I extracted it and have all the epubs sitting on my laptop and I emailed myself 3 books before the update. When I clicked on them it asked me if I wanted to open with overdrive media which I use for books from Waterstones. I had no problems at all, until now
I see the book sitting in my email and it is in epub format. I click on it and it then brings me to selecting andro zip or easy unrar lite which doesn't make sense as they are not zipped and even when you click on either program nothing happens as apps are not working.
Anyone any idea what I can do? I am gutted, I spend a lot of my free time reading and now I can't read all my ebooks

On my phone I can't always type messages, you touch the letters and nothing happens. So annoying. I could kill a baby penguin right now!

I know this is exactly the help you are requiring right now, but no need to thank me
I just allowed my phone and tablet do the latest android updates as it was alerting me to do so. Nought wrong with that imo

If the factory reset doesn't work (which it should surely) then just root and flash a different kitkat rom on it.

Will need to look at flashing it with a different rom before I throw it out the window

After all my hassle restoring to factory and hoping I could get my ebooks back I now have all my collection gone and the same thing is happening with the epubs. Wanting to open with androzip or easy unrar. Not giving me any other choice.
Emailed Waterstones about all the digital books I have paid for as they wont download either and they are wanting me to pay again. Hopefully they will help sort that for me.

Managed to get 2 books that Tony got me downloaded. I had to keep hitting save and download until the stupid thing recognised it and finally ES File explorer picked them up and gave me the option to open with FB Reader or Overdrive!
Back in business lol. That was a few hours of my life I wont get back!
Lost so much, but if some apps work better than before I reset it then it was worth it.

As for the tablet, sounds like a really odd one. Hopefully flashing a rom will work for you. If not buy zod or DP a bus ticket to Donegal and I'm sure they'll help out

Originally posted by 5starpool View PostWhat format are your ebooks MrsFD?
I shouldn't have to pay again for them. What I discovered there is that it is not recognising my overdrive account. I have put in all email addresses I have and it doesn't recognise any of them. The problem with the waterstones page was that you have to scroll to the bottom of the screen and click use full site to get them to download. I did that and it went straight to overdrive but then it stops because it recognises a different overdrive account.
I am hoping they will sort it out for me. I am sure most of the books are on the file Tony got me, so I can get them again. Just frustrating.
I have got there in the end, I don't give up easily lol. It is now only the ones that are from Waterstones causing me grief.
The ones I had on FB reader are included in the file Tony got me. I will just have them all on Overdrive.
As for the Nexus, if you google it, There has been a huge problem with the lollypop update for the 2012 model.

Now I don't use XBMC for any of my football streaming. I have a subscription to what used to be freeonlinefooty or whatever it was called, now called hd-streaming. They have an XBMC app but lately I have found it stuttering, but that might be due to my Android box.
I no longer find XBMC to be good for streaming the football. I will stream either through my online subscription site above, firstrowsports, or occasionally through a Wiziwig link, all through a laptop hooked up to tv.
