[Q] Zinio Issues

Got Zinio working on the Galaxy tab and downloaded the latest issue of Rolling Stone. I can read the mag in text mode but the full visual mode is showing blank screens. Anyone else having this issue?

I don't know about this particular issue, but it seems that the content being pushed to the Android Zinio client is not the same as the one available online. There is a clear disclaimer in the apps' FAQ about Zinio content currently being converted to meet the requirements of the phone app. That's why there are books and magazines missing in my Android library, compared to what I can read online or using the desktop application.

How did you get Zinio working? I can't find an APK for it anywhere...

How do you get it in Text mode? I did find that double-tapping the blank screen, or using two fingers to stretch to "zoom in" will reveal the image properly. Just a little zoomed in. Still a hassle.

When you tap the screen you will see a box on the bottom of the screen with straight white lines. Click on that, it will change to text mode.

Can someone post the zinio app I seem to have messed mine up
edit got it working

Would anyone mind posting a link to a working APK please? Tried the one from here but Zinio freezes on downloading the mag. Read that there is a new version that Zinio pushed right after the Tab release but can't find it for the life of me.
Thanks in advance.

Seems that that's the one you are searching for Zinio

i get the same thing, when you zoom in...even a little it shows the magazine in its full glory...
still its useless if you cant keep swiping to see the screen and you haev to pinch to zoom in a little for the magazine to show...pretty disappointing.
I wanted to use my tab a lot for this and the Ipad one works fine...kind of a deal breaker

Same here. ! I think we all confused !! Why Zinio is not showing up on US first but in others country. I thought Zinio is biggest US online megazine. @@ !!

*BUMP*
Has anyone gotten this to work on the Tab properly? - i.e. full screen

If you have the Beta version I was having same problem. Found the full version of Readers Hub here somewhere pulled from the latest JMA firmware I believe. The problem I am having is that the region seems to be set to where ever this Hub was pulled from dont have access to all us magazines in Zinio. Works fine for Press Reader and Kobo but no go on Zinio.
Anyone know how to hcnage region on Zinio?

Here are the files I used. Still can not change region. Any ideas?

Are you able to get full screen magazine images? Even with the apk you linked to, I canonly see the image if I zoom in.

Js4tda, Thanks Man. Copied this over to the /system/app. Fixed the Zinio issues. I can now flip pages from the image view and don't have to do the zoom out thing any more.

All I did was rename the Readerhub and Zinio .apk to .bak in /system/app. Then copied over the new apk's and set permissions.

Thanks for the help. I needed to uninstall all the old versions then install the ones posted by js4tda.

Thank you so much! I've finally got all three programs of the Readers Hub working as intended!
I am on the US T-Mo Tab and just uninstalled old versions and installed the new files from this post.

Catch Notes SKETCH - Can you install it?

Hi guys,
i have just found this sketch add-on for catch notes
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.catchnotes.sketch.samsung
But if I try to install it, it says that it is not available for my device. And yes, i own a galaxy note
Do you have the same problem? if no, could you please share the apk?
Thanks in advance

The description says... Currently, only the Galaxy Note in the US is supported (other regions & devices may download the add-on from Samsung Apps).
I'll try Samsung Apps to get it... will get back to you.
EDIT: I can't see it in a search on Samsung Apps.

Ah k. what a pitty, also in my Samsung Apps it doesn't exists

delete this post

File not working
Why does it say "cannot parse the file"
Is only 564 kbs whereas up here it reads 9xx KBs

downloaded that, but can't install it gives me some error

Ok, uploading again.

cool thanks
does anyone knows if this catch sketch works with an ICS rom? Like stunner? I just read that SMemo doesnt work. But the interface looks very similiar, so it could be that they use the same framework.

Great. Looks and feels exactly like SNote

Yes it's great. Running it for the first time it asks to download catch notes (the apk in this post is catch sketches) from the market, which is the necessary extension to manage all sketches.
Thanks for sharing this
suxi

runs great on imilkas cm9 port to the note except i get fc when taking a picture note

Thank you so much for this. I'm on ICS Stunner and this is exactly like the S-Pen app.

So, I feel a little stupid asking this... but can anyone edit a sketch again once you have saved and exited?

honestly i thought it was stupid question xD . but before judging i tested it myself. It does NOT work. havent noticed that at the beginning because i thought it would be standard to edit one's notes.
u can add sketches and edit text within a note but not edit a sketch.
thought i could flash ics now but thats a NoGo

Where to find a pic that is saved as a wallpaper?

Hi I am trying to retrieve a photo that has been saved as a wallpaper on my gfs Samsung Galaxy gt 15500.
When the photo was taken it was saved to the sd card but as some stage the sd card got corrupted and as far as I know she got rid of it.
She needs a new phone but refuses to do so without the picture (its very personal and cannot be recreated). Is there anyway of getting it?. I have rooted the phone and when into data via AstroFileManager but I cant find it anywhere.
I have also tried Wallpaper Set & Save but it is not compatible with 2.2.
Any help is appreciated as my life wont be worth living if I cant get the pic
Thanks

I have an idea
Use go launcher, hide the dock, hide all icons, hide the status bar and then take a screenshot!!!!

Thank you so much QuantumFoam.
Ill try it out later on her phone. If all goes well it means I have that important picture for her and I get a new phone to play around with.
I rooted it, updated the firmware and flashed a new kernel already and the thing is flying........let the flashing of the rom commence!!!

Big thumbs down on that.
Downloaded and installed go launcher ex. It immediately changed the background to some stock picture of the sky.
I changed back to my original launcher and the picture that I was trying to save is gone. This is not good.
The photo still remains as a contact pic, but yet again I cannot find anywhere its saved. Its as if its in a cache somewhere.
Does anybody have any ideas? (I didnt want to get into detail but the picture is of somebody who passed away and is very important to my gf)

You didn't mention that it's as a contact pic
There's a way to see your contacts on Google
Open Google on your computer, go to the more tab and click Even more. There should be contacts there

[Q] UCCW is getting buggy for my all of a sudden...

I'm trying to incorporate images into some widgets, but the app, as of yesterday, keeps bogging down as soon as I try to load one. I'll click the image I want then it goes back to UCCW and nothing happens. The generic image icon still remains, I can click to switch between objects, but it won't actually switch. What could be causing this? I downloaded a bunch of fonts a few nights ago, but the app was working fine up until yesterday. The app works just fine so long as I don't attempt to import an image file. If anyone has an idea, please let me know. I'm working on a huge project.

If you're looking for more than the included fonts @Bautinho88 mentioned, I believe you can download more from the samsung app store. There might be other ways, but I haven't found any others yet.

Yo, check out "Trend Font" the apk is not found on play store, so its "unknown sources" and giyf !!
You then have the choice of 39 fonts to install, with no more annoying messages from your awesome new phone.
I tested a few with success on my unrooted s8+
You may then even upload your own personal favorite font, and they may add it to the list for you.
once the font you want is installed you can uninstall Trend Font if you want.
These fonts have also been tested on all galaxy devices including S8, S8+, S7 and S7 edge.
==============EDIT==================
A few dudes out there had issues with this app for reasons unknown to me.
To save anyone else any further hassle, I have collected them all and uploaded a zip with the lot
There are 39 fonts here.
Ps would love "storopia" or "clockopia" if anyone has the skillz to provide? Thanks
= = = = = = = = EVEN MORE EDIT = = = = = = =
There are a total of 73 fonts on the following link -->https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72112717&postcount=24

Want roboto ? Try this : (not BOLD or CONDENSED...)

the only thing this app will do for you successfully is deliver ads. Even when you click the X on the ad, it takes you to the ads site or app. Waste of time, does not work for Samsung Galaxy S series phones.

I tried just about everything on the S7E to get a font I wanted, samsung doesn't even offer it or i'd have purchased it to save the trouble I went through. I tried over a dozen apps and none of them worked. It just doesn't appear possible. The phone would kick back anything as an unrecognized font (regardless of font format even)

Mate, works for me, otherwise why would i post ?
Open app with data and Wi-Fi off, select your font, turn only DATA back on, then try Selecting the font you want again.
Someone else thanked me so maybe you have other problemo your end?
Attached are three I picked as random as proof this works... I'm using adhell if that makes any difference?
Otherwise I will fetch them all for the community, but my balls are aching at the thought of doing this 50 times when I got the one I wanted first time honest!

EDIT - Updated other post with all the fonts there for you all, I put them there as there are already screen shots to go with them.

Samsung phones only accept fonts developed by Monotype Imaging Inc. There are a few on the Play Store, although some of them are quite goofy looking, there were one or two that I liked.
Only other place to get custom fonts is Samsung Galaxy Apps Store, and over there most of them aren't even in English, so I've decided to stick with the default font.

Not a big fan of the fonts shown in the screenshots, are there more or is that it?
There was a way to get Roboto Light before Samsung patched that way in December 2015 and since then I've only been able to get MonoType fonts to work correctly.

Is this a way to get rid of the cryptic asian style emoji that samsungs come with? I cannot understand what most of them even mean.

I should probably point out I did this on a desktop computer. It does automatically download the "downloader" file, which I then deleted. But then it gives the direct download option, which allows downloading the font apk file. I transferred that to my phone, which installed the font.
But it only works for Monotype fonts...RobotoCondensed-Bold is not one of them.
