Hello there
Does anyone know if its possible to make bookmark
folders for Firefox android? Their support website alludes to this, though explanatory video shows PC Firefox- not android. No help.
Folders for bookmarks. Folders for Reading list.
Changing the order of bookmarks, and the reading list.
? This would make so much sense.
Also, is there a function of this xda forum to download an entire thread for offline reading, as in every page of the thread in one go? - And with the possibility of updating periodically?

This may be a totally noob question but how can I make an app from a webpage? If I create an html page with a bunch of links to other pages and soundclips, how hard is it to turn that into an app. I have no experience creating android apps and I don't know the android code either. Can someone let me know if there is an easy way to create an app from the web page with the type of skills I have. (Very basic)
I do know html so theres no problem in the creation of the page. My only question is in the creation of the app. Thank you in advance for any help.
Can anyone help?
why bother? why not just give them the link to your webpage?
also - given the limited space of a typical android device, a full web page wouldn't translate well to an app.
to answer your original question, it is very easy to create an app that is just a pile html links and sounds.
thank you very much
Hi,
I've been looking for a way to have my Android phone read to me similar to iOS's VoiceOver feature. I'm running Android 2.3 but can't seem to find a way to accomplish this easily.
A couple quasi solutions I have found is to use a RSS reader, such as "FeedSpeak" or "Web Talks" that support TTS (Text to speech), however this only works for RSS feeds. Another method is to convert websites into PDF's using Dolphin Browser's "MyPDF" Add-on and use ezPDF's voice reading feature to read the PDF back.
Am I missing something that is inherent in the Android OS? Does anyone have a better app to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Voice Browser Lite: https://market.android.com/details?...dfreebrowser.lite&feature=more_from_developer
This is an excellent example of what I'm looking for, I just wish it was a little more refined. Hopefully this will help someone looking for a similar app.
Hello,
I've been looking for exactly the same solution for a while now, and ended up looking at the same SW as you mention -- but found them a bit lacking. And yes, I agree, Voice Browser is annoyingly close. What bothers me the most is why isn't that one a browser plugin that can be activated only when needed.
Sorry if this doesn't provide you with any added knowledge (apart from the consolation that you exhausted all existing options).
Let us know if you find anything new / better. TIA for that.
I'm sorry for posting in a such old thread, but I was looking for exactly the same app and Google brought me here. I foud one very simple but that can satisfy the requirements of anyone looking for something similar. Here it is: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.benigumo.speechweb
Web Speech doesn`t work for me...I just get FC's all the time...
I think it's really annoying that there is no simple App or Add-on for this feature.
In fact I find it unbelievable. Is there really no convenient solution?

I wonder if the permissions in android prohibit an app like that. my understanding is that apps reallycan't interact with other apps for security purposes.
Use "Voice Reading" app for reading web pages android
"Share" the web page to "Voice Reading" (read aloud) app. You have to get the app from Googleplay. This is the best way that I have found.
It's the highest rated reading app. Remember you can 'share' any page or email.:good:
Does anyone know of an android app that will allow me to view, fill out, and resave an editable pdf? I've been looking all over the forums, and google. I can find apps that will annotate, but not edit.
Edit: Found qPdf, it seems to do exactly what i need.
Hey guys,
I'm really new to this app development and would like to ask one of you experienced developers a question.
Basically I have recently been creating mobile websites from a set of css files which are just a basic template. The template files have individual files for some of the most common pages that a small business would need, google map, contact us with form, menu, opening hours and so on.
What happens is you simply upload the company logo and such into the images folder, update the css style sheet for colours, then simply edit one of the relevant pages e.g place the food items in the menu page.
When the whole set of files gets uploaded it creates a personalised functional business mobile website.
What I would like to know is, would it be possible to set something like this up for an android app? Whereby the user could simply change the details as above and then compile the apk file which will create the app?
Your input is much appreciated, also have any of you got any idea where I could get someone to code something like this?
Regards,
Stephen
Hi, I'm looking for an app that allows me to view wikis in my phone offline, from my SDcard. I want to download the dump file of the wikis,not only wikipedia, but any other wiki, related to games, movies, etc., copy to sd card and use them with a reader.
I found 2 apps that can do that. The first one is fastwiki, which is very good, but it doesn't have images on wiki pages and they are a little messy with the quotes and images, they don't show it properly and the page doesn't have a clean aspect.
The other one is Leo's wikipedia reader, but i couldn't manage to create the wiki file.
Both of them comes with a xml converter to create the wiki file that the app will read. This allows me to view any wiki, not just wikipedia.
Please, if you know a wiki reader like those that's better, post here. Or if you know how to convert leo's file post them here.
