New Baka-Tsuki Android App: Development

[mystichead]

you know how when u zoom in to a page and the text not just becomes bigger but fits to the page (without having u to scroll left or right to read the whole line)?... even if images stay the same...

If you are using Kit Kat, go to Settings -> Reading Layout -> Kit Kat WebView Zoom Fix and enable it.

im trying to figure ot what settings or steps i should take to do it in the app when i go to an external page.... like for Maoyuu or Vamp! for example.... which makes me goto nano-desu/untuned-translations

Go to Settings -> General -> Use Internal WebView and enable it

it doesnt work on my kitkat tablet (nexus 7 gen 1)

im not sure if its cuz its kitkat(unlikely) or if its cuz its a tablet(since the default view i get for web pages anywhere in the tablet in any app is desktop version)...if hat is the case i wonder if u could solve it by forcing it to be mobile view default in the internal Webview... somehow...

also it seems like for where it does work on reflow it zooms it to the dimensions of the phone but doesnt reflow if i zoom in to make the letters bigger
sorry for the trouble

Hey Nandaka, since I still have the thumb image problem, do you think by uninstall and reinstill bakaread would solve issues?

For the past few weeks Bakareader EX hasnt been autoupdating
I have it set to update every 12 hrs but it never pops up telling my it updated like it usually does and I have all the notifications set to beep and persist and such
Would Uninstalling it and redownloading it work?

might do!

Hi! Im having the same problem with autoupdating. I just want to know before uninstalling the app if the images and chapters that were already downloaded would be deleted? Thanks.

So you are saying internal webview showing external pages in desktop version?
KitKat remove the autoreflow/one column layout from webview, so no reflow for external site (depends on the website settings). I can manually override the user agent by adding 'Mobile' string in it to force mobile view, but I cannot test it (my tablet return mobile view).

Usually storage issue, as the application cannot read the database. Either the app still writing updates to the DB and another thread try to write concurrently (very rare, as the write is synchronized), or your storage is failing, or you have antivirus and it lock the file for reading.

Depends on the save location, if you save it on the default location (.../data/com.erakk.lnreader/files/) then it will be deleted by android as clean up during uninstall. If you save it in external sdcard (not on /Android/data/.../), then it will not be deleted.

I don't have an antivirus on my smartphone, and i don't think is the storage, because i restored a backup in the storage e started to work normally! The only backlash is that i lost my watched list and bookmarks, the same think happened last time i updated the app, so is it possible that it wasn't working because of the first reasons you talked?

I created an account just so i could post here

Well, i wanted to ask, is there anyway to read preview chapters on Baka Tsuki app o.O I'm talking about Mushoku Tensei volume 12 chapter 5. When i go into the chapter, it "downloads" it, but it's just empty... The only way to read it is to use the we browser...

I'm currently using Sony Xperia M2 D2303

P.S. Sorry about my English, i'm not a native speaker...

Hi Nandaka, I have updated Bakareader to version 1.1.19-beta as you suggested, but unfortunately it did not solve the problem.

@Silver Horn, if you click on refresh, "Chapter 5: Journey of the Desert - (PREVIEW)" should appear and once you download it, then you should be able to read it.
P.s "Chapter 5: Journey of the Desert - (PREVIEW)" should be in black writing and not pink, the pink ones are blank pages that can be deleted.

After 3 days of working correctly, now the same error

ERROR==>disk I/O error (code 266)

reappeared itself, but this time, even restoring an older backup didn't work to solve the problem!

Not sure if I am the only one with this problem but for me the BakaReader EX app wont find any Teaser or Original Light novels, instead it just displays the message "List is empty."
I have already tried reinstalling the app and connecting from another Network.
Fortunately the Main page works perfectly but I would still like being able to read the Teasers and Original Light Novels too using the app.
I am using it on two devices and am experiencing the problem on both of them firstly my cell phone a Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini using Android 4.1.2 and secondly my Tablet a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 running on Android 4.4.2.

I really hope you can help me solve this issue.

Thanks in advance
Chris

Found a solution today (I wish I had found it before posting)

I am having a problem whereby if i have visited an external chapter even once, if i revisit it through the app, the app would crash. Is there anyways to fix this ?
I only noticed this problem today.

Please give more detailed info (e.g. the chapter) and if possible get the adb cat log file (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthr ... ?t=1726238)

find any Teaser or Original Light novels, instead it just displays the message "List is empty."

Try manually refresh the page from the overflow button?

I never encountered this issue, so I'm not sure whether this is hardware issue?

Hi Nandaka, I have updated Bakareader to version 1.1.19-beta as you suggested, but unfortunately it did not solve the problem.

I need the adb cat log (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthr ... ?t=1726238)

Slight bug involving a combination of the alt. Language tab and invert colors setting. When you use the white background with black text set-up, the tabs inside of alt. Language for Polish, Spanish, etc have backgrounds that stay black independent of invert colors, so the text and background end up as the same color. Very easy to replicate.
