pdf file doesn't open - Moto X Q&A

anyone else have this problem.. download a pdf and click it and cant open? No other droid I've had does this... yes I've found to download an app and than search for the downloaded pdf and yes it opens that way.. but no reason it still should say it can't open from download page.. get it right before you release it moto....

Opens PDF no problem on mine, always has. Moto got it right here!

Just get Adobe reader from play store. ?

Install QuickOffice

I thought that Google drive supported this type...
I had to get Adobe Reader installed. I disabled Quick office as Google is supposed to get rid of Quick office soon.

Google Drive doesn't support PDF yet, and all features of Quick Office haven't been integrated with Google Drive. I'd rather install QuickOffice over Adobe Reader, as Reader always seems slow to open. I have found a couple PDFs that only opened in Reader, but they weren't anything important. QuickOffice always loads the PDF files quickly. Really though, it's just personal preference on what you use.

Maybe install Astro tools to back up the apps? That's how I got most of mine.
Install Astro and chose to backup apps from the tools. You'll have em in the backup folder after
Okay, I figured it out. Yeah, I installed Astro and backed up the files, but I had to figure out ADB commands to get it from the sdcard in the emulator to an actual folder on the computer. On my HTC Touch, I just plug it in and it shows up as a drive, but the emulator is different.
Here's the apps:
NYTimes, like Operabridge, is listed as private in Astro. So if anyone knows how to get around this, let me know.

[Q] .kml files into google earth?

importing .kml into google earth? sory if this has been covered but i searched for quite a while and couldnt find out how to do it. i used wardriver to map out network locations and i exported the data to .kml. now shouldnt i be able to load that .kml into google earth? i uploaded the .kml to wigle.net but it didnt give me a http addy to search for with GE. i even tried typing a .kml addy from a different site into GE search but it said not found.
this thread from april talks about .kml or GE not being available for android http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=661064. however i got GE from the market so i guess things have changed.
where can i find a clear-cut way of loading .kml files into GE?
I can't imagine nobody has any advise on this topic. Must have been covered already. Ill look elsewhere.

Man, I just can't figure it out. All the places just say to upload the kml to a host and search in GE for the url. I have uploaded the kml to wigle but it doesnt give me a url to my file. I simply want to place a layer of my wardriving networks on top of google earth. Is there anyone that can assist?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
The android GE does not import .kml files. Only the pc version.
well hell.. thats marvelous to know. how about google maps? can i use kml in google maps on my phone? if not is there some other sort of map app that i can use? id like to apply my wardriving kmls to a map so i can review and use them.
thing is, i cant find the url to my hosted kml's on wigle. i have a in post the forums there asking about it but it hasnt been answered yet.
import your .kml to maps.google.com if the account is the same as your phone it will show up automatically in android Google maps layers, just enable that layer
Thanks for the reply. I hate to be such a noob but unfortunately I am just that. A noob. Do I need to import from my pc? When I go to maps.google.com on my phone it asks to open with browser or with maps. When I choose browser it loads then closes. When I choose to load it in maps it doesn't close but I can't find the option to import anything. Any way you could explain it step-by-step to me like you would to a 4 year old? Heh.

Hey it is now possible to open KML file with GE .
Ther's an APP on the market to do this :
"I've developed an app for Android that lets you load a KML or KMZ file into Google Earth. If you are on the Google Android Market, then just search for "KMLZ to Earth". Google might have overlooked it, but aside from the first load of the file failing (Google Earth won't read the URI if it's not running), then my app works perfectly to display KML or KMZ files in Google Earth.
WrightRocket"
Enjoy...
kml files are for the DESKTOP google earth program.

Maybe you're right but with this app you can use it on your PDA...
Tested and approved!
ya missed the post about your addon app.

[Q] Edit Google docs not possible?

I see on this blog that it is possible to edit Google docs on Android. But, when I view one of my docs I do NOT have the edit button.
Does this work for you?
ThinkFree Office might be able to.
It works in Dolphin HD but not the stock browser... Why could that be?
It's working with the stock browser.
Hmm. What could I be doing wrong?

[Q] Google+ on Milestone

So, I got me a Google+ account.
However, I can't seem to find the app on the market or download it directly from Google's website via a link set to my phone.
Any idea why, or where we can get the .apk?

Perhaps the app is blocked in your country? Try using Market Enabler?
I think the easest way to find it is searching any app from google on the downloaded list and go to "More apps from this developer" (or whatever you see in your language)
I've founded it by this way (on Argentina), but i don't have an invitation...
Sent from my Milestone using XDA App
Can't think of a reason why it should be blocked, there's a Hebrew translation for Google+ and I'm using it.
In addition, on the google+ page there's a link to send the app to my mobile, and for some reason I'm not getting the SMS with the link.
Strange stuff
Please, could someone upload the apk file? I can't download it from the market because it is country restricted. Thanks!
Yes market enabler and fake vodafone uk

Market Enabler is the way to go, find it in the market, install and fake as something [US].

Yep, Market enabler did the job. Thanks!
Does auto-upload feature work for everyone? It seems kind of buggy for me
This application works perfectly on my milestone. I have no problem finding it in the market Maybe try download it via https://market.android.com/

Cannot open PDF files

Hi. When downloading a PDF file (for instance from Facebook) I get a message saying something like "No application available to open file."
If I'm opening a PDF sent to me as an attachment in Gmail it opens just fine. I have Google pdf reader, Acrobat reader and a couple other pdf readers installed just to try if they work. They don't make any difference.
Is it a software problem? System? Launcher?
Running everything stock with ColorOs and stock launcher.
Thanks!
I don't use the Facebook app but it's strange issue as mine open using Gmail, drive, chrome and root explorer... I haven't even download a dedicated pdf reader. If you goto the app management then click default apps section does it let you select your pdf app as the default viewer for text file?

This is what I get.
I thought changing the default app might work since it said no default app was set. But nothing changed...
Good afternoon friends. Please tell us how to compress PDF files if you know how to do it. I just don't understand anything at all, I bought a computer recently. Help me with your advice, friends.
