Hey folks, I've released MobileOrg 0.4.1 to the Market (find the link here:
http://wiki.github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/)

The one big change here is that MobileOrg now supports synchronizing files
that are stored locally on the sdcard (instead of requiring a connection to
a webdav server).  This should also support, at least initially, those of
you who would like to use Dropbox.

Here is an example Dropbox workflow:

* You've pushed your files into a directory called org/ on your Dropbox
share
* With the Dropbox Android client you download your org files (with the
defaults, this would download the files to /sdcard/dropbox/org/)
* Open MobileOrg and in the Settings screen select the SDCard Synchronizer,
then click on the "Configure Synchronizer Settings" option and enter the
path to the index.org file (in this example: /sdcard/dropbox/org/index.org)
* Go back to the main screen and hit "Menu" and then "Sync"

Capturing notes will create a file 'mobileorg.org' in that same directory
for pushing back into emacs

If you just have your emacs configuration push to your sdcard when you have
it mounted then it is even easier, though you'll need to remember to unmount
the sdcard from your computer before synchronizing.

Right now you have to manually type in the path to the index.org file.
 There is a way to integrate starting an external file browser (such as Root
Explorer or OI File Manager) that I will integrate into the next version,
but I wanted to give you folks this feature as early as possible.

I'm still working to integrate the Dropbox API into the application, but it
is a little more involved and requires that they review the application
before I can deploy it.   This would make the Dropbox workflow a lot easier
but I'm still working on integrating this.

There was one other thing that I forgot to mention... I've re-enabled
installing this application for Android 1.5 phones, you should be able to
see it in the Market now.

Thanks Matthew.  I have just tried to download this from the Market
but, after unloading, it then fails to install: "Installation
error. Package was not signed correctly."  I have no further
information other than this was on a Samsung Galaxy Portal which is
running Android 1.5.  Sorry if this is not of much help...

Hey Eric... did you already have MobileOrg installed on your phone via the
APK downloaded from my site?  If so, could you uninstall that and then try
installing the app from the market?

Eric,

If you installed one of the versions of MobileOrg posted on the website you
will need to uninstall that first before installing the one found on the
market.

Thanks.  That did the trick, in terms of being able to download and
install.  I've just tried configuring and it gave me a force close
dialogue but let me play some with it to see what is going on...

Hey Eric, if you find some issues please open bugs here:
http://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/issues

I've found some force closes related to SD Card Synchronization but
appreciate any bug report you can provide.

Also, if the app gives you the change to submit a report after a crash then
please do that... as it will give me a stack trace to work with when trying
to resolve the problem.

I'd be happy to.  Is there some way to ask the phone to generate the
report?  I've never seen such an option.

Anyway, the first problem was that I had introduced, by mistake, a
space (0x20) in the URL for the source of org files and deleting that
appears to have fixed the force close I had.  Seems to work so far.
I'll play with it over the next few days and will feed back any
problems via the github bugs page.

Thanks!
eric

On my phone if something bad happens and the app is going to force close it
will give me the option to "Report" with the force close and send a stack
trace as well as some other information.   It does not always do this,
however.
