Aldiko book reader renders the pages a little bigger than the screen, so after a few pages the text starts to move to the right, and on the left of the page appears text from the previous page. After a few pages, depending on the book, this becomes unreadable.
Any solution or settings for Calibre (or other convert program)

Hi there mate, sorry to hear about that, the driving force for my X10 was that the screen made an amazing ebook reader. As of yet i have not hit your problem
I havnt used their internal store i imported my own and used this converter
(http://ebook.online-convert.com/convert-to-epub) so maybe try re-converting or re-downloading
may i suggest also turning off oreintations AND / OR animations i have them both OFF and they may be the reason.
Does your ebook have may picutres? or iregular formatting?? that might be the issue
reinstall the program, im using the premium version which as far as i know has nothing new its just to suppor the dev's but maybe try that??
let me know if it works or not
ALSO wat sub model im using the x10i from NZ wbu??

sorry just re-read your post and i didnt realise that you have an x10 mini, still try some of my suggestings, it may just be your tiny screen size
I think that is not problem screen size, with FBreader or WordPlayer have not problem with rendering,only with Aldiko.Will try some of Your suggestions
THX
well as far as im concerned aldiko is the un-disputed best ebook app on the market and if i were in your shoes i'd try my hardest to get it to work, but if it doesnt work for ya wat can you do?? SHORT OR REINSTALLING THE OS??? and u dont wana do that!!!
It definetely has to do with the small screen size, unfortunately.
Maybe in a future update of the Aldiko app, the low screen resolution will be better supported. But in general, such small screens are not intended for reading.
Maybe help Update.
Reading is OK,I step from K810i to X10 Mini and is perfect.

I have a similar problem, though the other way around. As each chapter starts in Sun Tsu "The Art of War", that comes with Aldiko, the page is correctly displayed, but for each new page within a chapter you see a little bit more of the next page on the right of the screen and a little bit more of the page you're on disappears on the left. I have found no layout settings to fix this. I assume you all can reproduce this and that it is due to a bug in Aldiko that will hopefully be corrected.
Problem solved after new Aldiko update.

the link does not work ?
do you have the file elsewhere ?
how to use this browser (how to zoom in/out, where's back button...)?
I was able download the file but it will not install on wm6 , any ideas on that ?
Works fine on WM6, to zoom in/out double tap and hold on the second tap, move up to zoom in and down to zoom out. Best web browser out there..IMO
mirror
Admin Edit: Link removed due to legal complaints

thank you for the file. I noticed it crashed when going to flash intensive sites but still a very nice browser for other files like pics and things like that.
Browser is awesome ... lovin it.
WOW this is the coolest web browser! Thank you!
Now I can view pictures, therefore able to view my daily comic strips
Office documents
I think it also shows office documents with full capabilities.
Check your synchronisation first because those settings will change your word document to a pcoket word document
i think the layout of this browser is awesom but when going on internet it takes a very long time to load a website and
but even though i love it!

Your welcome. and yeah it has it qorks about it, i'm really liking opera8.6
you can turn flash on in the REG settings ... search for Picsel
WOW! This browser/pdf/txt/ppt/doc reader is awesome! Renders all to a single page format so you can use your fingers to grab it like pdf pages. Renders all the text to cleartype too.
THANKS!
One thing I can figure out is how to browse back and forward on it, and how to click links without double tapping?
back
tap the icon bottom-right and you see miniature-pages on the lift- and right-bottom to go back and forward
File has been removed. Got a nasty letter from Picsel Tech. lawyers.
just wanted to make a quick note that, for zooming, if you hold on the 2nd tap and drag left or right, it will create a box which will fill up your screen once you let go of the tap (similar to how deepfish worked, i believe)

just PM me and ill give it to you
just curious,
for what device was picsel browser actually developed?
Don't know but whoever made it was dumb to keep it uder locks like this, they should atleast sell the damn thing. Idiots..
The one I'm using says its for Samsung PDAs only, which is funny because I've never heard of a Samsung branded PDA, ever..
I love it for content heavy sites, online manga & PDF veiwing.
IMHO it is the fastest PDF viewer I ever used.
i try to set it in 'about:config' but it has no response! i have checked the box of show scroll bar but no change! can anyone help! many thanks!
i havent tryd this so just guessing, but isnt it like the other scrollbars? where you have to hold your thumb far right for the scrollbar button to 'grow out'?
i've tried but the scroll box dont come out!
it is very inconvenient especially when need to drag down to the bottom. now i have to scroll with finger many times! pls help!
Has anyone found the solution to this problem yet?
Come on guys? Am I the only one who visit long web pages?
did anyone find a solution to this.
Is is not possible to have a pop-out enlargened scroll bay in Opera.
Sorry guys but Opera just doesnt have a real scrollbar. All you can see there is a sort of indicator, not more not less. It is just not an active part of Opera just a visual thing. You cant do anything about that...
How can these very basic function be missing in opera which is supposedly one of the best browser!
Even stranger is that I spend two hours searching and noticed that not much people are complaining about this......
Very bad when trying to read entries from wikipedia. Had to flick my finger till I feel like throwing the phone out the windows! Guess I've to start searching for an alternative browser.....
I often read large documents with opera. Getting to the bottom of one webpage I had to swipe down 500 times - yes I counted them!
I agree this should be a standard function of any browser.

I found ucweb browser pretty good for reading...
On Aldiko, every eBook the first page of each chapter is entirely on the screen ,but after that, parts of the pages are partially on the previous screen. I have tried all of the layout settings, but I still cannot fix it. Has anyone been able to fix this?
Thanks in advance

You may want to ask this in General Q&A as this is not specific for the Vogue. Thread moved to Q&A.
Newsr had a couple of problems that I will report to the developer but I was wondering if there is an app that can mark as read while you scroll instead of clicking on each feed to mark as read.
Thanks!
i use feedly on both my phone and TF, its awesome on both.
I use feedly as well. Its awesome
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium App
Retab is pretty good
Check out news360 also. Pretty good news aggregator and awesome concept
Feedly is awesome. Just what I was looking for. Thanks!
News360 widget is slick!
Taptu for me. Tried the others and they don't seem so easily customisable and simple yet slick to use.
I'm quite enjoying Pulse. It can import your Google Reader feeds (although it can't export its own feeds back to Reader), and for any feeds you have in both Reader and Pulse, the has-been-read flag will be synced.

You can actually get it to sync? I've tried it several times and all I get is to check network connectivity.
Personally I've yet to find one I really like.
Feedly doesn't seem to sync fully or quickly for me. There have been times that I know I've read an article already and it still shows up. Also I find the layout kind of non-intuitive. When I hit "home" on it I keep getting back to different places.
Retab has a better layout, if a bit crude at the higher levels. Once I'm in a section though it does flow nicely. The problem again is that it doesn't sync or track the read state between levels. If I go into my "android" reader folder and read all of the articles it still shows I have unread when I go back up to the top level until I hit refresh.
News360 is cool looking but dead in the water for me. Twitter and Facebook are the dumbest places to look if you're trying to predict what I like to read. How about, oh I don't know, my google reader account? No? Ok, I'll take a look again when you decide that I can decide what I want to read on my own.
My real issue with all of the tablet readers is that they've all focused on being "different" with their look and feel and have failed with the basic fucntion of getting my news and keeping it organized efficiently. That's probably why I keep going back to NewsRob. It's butt ugly on a tablet, but it syncs appropriately and uses local cacheing so the whole damn list doesn't re-load every time I open the app.

Hmm... do you have multiple google accounts set up? I wonder if that could be causing an issue.

Please do let me know what those issues are, so I can fix them.
I have a beta right now that improves the "mark all as read" performance in a serious way.

I sent you a PM about those. Not sure if you received it.
The bugs are:
1) In portrait mode, the app still shows the three columns.
2) Feeds that are in other languages (right-to-left) display the div/html code in title bar.
Thanks!
Is there any chance you could make Newsr sync items that are shared by my contacts under the contact name as a separate feed as per the Google Reader website? Currently the only way to see them is by looking at "All Items".
Also, can you make Newsr sync read items as well as unread? Sometimes I accidentally mark something as read and then want to go back to read it again. I can't seem to do this with Newsr.

I second this.
Also, I just discovered the open-article-with-inapp-browser button. How about loading all links in-app instead of opening the Browser? Example: digg articles.
+1 for Pulse here as well. I'm loving the interface and search function.
Pulse is no good if you have lots of friends in Google who share things and you want to share stuff with them.
The integration isn't there, it just grabs the feeds and that's it.
This is a problem with all WP7 phones yet I can't find any details about it anywhere.
In some websites, certain portions of text will appear abnormally large, as if the text size was set to large and the zoom level was set to normal. Is there a way to fix it?
Here is an example of what I'm talking about

Guys...come on. I know I'm not the only one with this problem.
Please don't tripple post.
I sometimes have this problem briefly on xda developers website, but when it is done loading, it goes back to normal. Try changing your browser settings to desktop view for viewing that site and see what that does.
I have a problem with IE on Omnia 7. The problem is it wont load any page... My connection is OK because everything else works (email, "Now" tile refreshes weather and news normally, my facebook account is regulary updated).
Does anyone have an idea what could be the problem?

Just tried that, no success...
Can you post a picture please?
There's nothing wrong with the IE in WP7. That's an error in the website's code. That's a problem with so many different browsers being out. Different browsers display pages differently. It's the web developers job to test their code in multiple browsers to make sure they display properly.
Then why does it happen with 8 out of every 10 websites I visist?
Can you go to overclock.net and see if you can reproduce the problem?
I have tried the IE9 in the new updated emulator and it definitely fixes this.
