Running Beta 6 on HTC Desire. Library shows a large number of books which are not shown on computer and are not in hidden resources. They are, as far as I can see, titles that have never appeared on the computer. This gives an unwieldy list to scroll through.

    First, try updating to the newest version of the Beta here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.logos.androidlogos

    If that does not resolve this issue, could you list several of the titles that are showing up incorrectly?

     

    Thanks,

    Thanks.

    I've now updated to Beta 7 and the issue persists

     

    The titles showing up on the phone but not on the computer include:

     


    1881 Westcott-Hort Greek NT

    1890 Darby Bible

    Apocrypha of the OT, Charles

    Arabic Bible (Smith and Van Dyke)

    Clementine Vulgate

    Commentary Crictical etc Jamieson, Faussett etc

    Divign for Pearls in God’s Treasure Chest

    Easton’s
    Bible Dictionary

    Elzevir TR

    Foundation documents, Gospel Coalition

    Giovanni Diodati Bibbla

    Glossary of morpho-Syntactic data, Heiser

    The imitation of Christ

    In his steps

    An Introduction to ecclesiastical Latin

    La Biblkia de las Americas

    Louis Segond

    Luther Bible (1545)

    Luther Bible (1912)

    Morning and Evening, Spurgeon

    The Neccesity of Prayer, Bounds

    New American Standard Bible 1955

    New Testament in the Original Greek, Westcott and
    Hort

    Novum Testamentum Graece, Tischendorf

    Nueva Biblia de Los Hispanos

    There are more including a few more Greek NT's, a ?Polish Bible and a Russian text.

    All of my purchased titles seem to appear with the exception of the Oxford Bible Commentary, but that was given me here in the UK on CD by OUP so that may be understandable.

     

    Hope this helps.

    Those titles seem like they are in just about all of the packages...so even on the PC you should be showing them unless you've hidden them.

    The extra books you are seeing are the 30 free books that any user of our mobile applications has access to. These books are in addition to what you have available from your library.

    In that case this is probably explained by my history with Logos. I have been using Logos since the early 90s and my upgrade path has been to upgrade the platform and only add books as and when I choose. With the upgreade to Logos 4 I used the Crossgrade route. I haev never purchased a Logos 4 package.

    This suggests to me that the Android version is doing more than syncrhonising with my resources on Logos 4, and is adding titles from one of the packages. My laptop synchronises exactly with my desktop and only picks up the same titles.

    If this is the case it raises two questions

    1  Will the Android version at some point synchronise exactly with the titles held in the llibrary on Logos 4 or will it tend to add in from basic packages?

    2  Will there eventually be a way of hiding titles in the Android version if it continues to show titles that are not listed by the computer?

    1. The Android app will have access to every book from your library that is available for our mobile applications. Availability for the mobile applications is determined by licensing agreements with our publishers. Our goal is to eventually have every book available on all of our platforms.

    2. Improved library browsing and filtering is currently planned and will be implemented in a future release.

    Thanks.

    I should say that it's great to have the Android app; I am eagerly looking forward to full functionality.
