Aldiko Sync

This application is designed to work with the eBook reader Aldiko. It allows you to sync your books and bookmarks across your devices using your Dropbox account.


** Note **

As of version 5.4.18, the app no longer requires a rooted device.

Older versions of the app are not compatible with this version, so please upgrade all your devices to avoid sync failures.

If you have an issue with the app, please use the in-app "Report Issue" feature, so I can address it as quickly as possible.

Thanks!

Change Log:

7.4.6, 17-Mar-2012
* Add feature to restrict sync to Wi-Fi connections.
* Pro Version: Update the "Hide Status Icon" feature to display text only on errors. Avoids the notification from blocking others on Honeycomb devices.
* Update notification to show the actual error message, instead of a generic sync failed message.
* Bug-Fix: Fix code to no longer silently ignore errors when saving the sync state.

7.1.2, 07-Feb-2012
* Work around a bug in Android Gingerbread OS (2.3.1 and 2.3.2) which would sometimes corrupt the last digit of the stored read position, causing future sync operations to fail.
* Add a ".nomedia" file to the SDCard location when a new book is imported to prevent the standard Gallery app from caching the book's thumbnail and cover images.

7.0.4, 08-Jan-2012
* Add option to always sync to furthest read point.
* Improve code that checked for internet connectivity, should reduce the "Unable to reach Dropbox" message when switching from mobile to WiFi.
* Pro Version: Allow error notifications to be dismissed when the "Hide Status Icon" option is enabled.
* Bug-Fix: Detect and ignore incompatible thumbnail/cover images when adding new eBooks instead of failing the sync operation.
* Bug-Fix: Fix very slow loading of library data for large libraries (100+ books) on devices whose default locale is not US English.

6.18.32, 24-Dec-2011
* Updated app to fix issues on Android OS 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)
* Add option to always add books from a device to Dropbox on first sync (enabled by default)
* Expand info sent via the "Report Issue" feature for a better support experience.
* Bug-Fix: Fix the "eBooks Folder" field to be a single line control.
* Pro Version: Improve license check code to reduce verification failure reported by some users. Requires updated unlocker app to be installed.
* Pro Version: Update the "Hide Status Icon" feature to be more useful by displaying the icon when a sync is in progress.
* Bug-Fix: (Pro Version) Fix issue where a sync was not performed if the device went to sleep due to the screen being turned off before the trigger could execute.

6.10.2, 20-Nov-2011
* Add extra checks to verify internet connectivity before starting a sync operation. With this change, the "Unable to login to Dropbox" message should show up only for actual Dropbox login failures.
