        Sorry for the lack of clarity. calibre is a cross platform ebook manager. It has a feature that allows users to manage their ebook collection on various connected devices. It has a repository of recognised devices built-in so most ereaders like the Kobo or Kindle reader can be connected without hassle.

        For unrecognised devices, it is possible to designate an ebook folder on a devices through calibre so that ebooks can be transferred and managed with ease.

        I created an ebook folder on the MicroSD card because it is likely to take up a lot of space. Unfortunately, I cannot figure out a way to navigate to that directory from calibre as the connection uses the MTP protocol. So the address is mtp:/[path-to-folder], instead of /media or something equivalent.

            Ahhh ok, I think I get it now. Thanks!

            Can you follow the instructions in this faq and the few subsequent ones? Maybe we can figure it out.

              @mike It is very nice. Unfortunately, I can't find a cbz reader in the Open Store yet, no no comics for now I guess.

              @doniks I will give it a shot, and see how it goes with upstream.

                @rewarp, yes I know what software Calibre is. I use it with my BQ Cervantes (ebook reader) but not with my phone.

                Have you tried to use a different sd card? Have you tried calibre using the whole card and not just a directory?

                  @advocatux The problem is I can't even navigate to the SD Card via calibre's folder connection settings. So I can't test your suggestions.

                    @rewarp, have you tried with another sd card? Are you sure that card you're using now is fine?

                      @advocatux Just to test it wasn't my external sd card, I tried to connect to a storage folder on the internal sd card. It doesn't work because it is an mtp connection, and it is apparent that calibre for now is not set up for mtp with the M10 FHD.

                      This is the error log when calibre detects the device:

                      If there is a way to expose the internal or external sd cards as USB storage instead of using the mtp protocol, calibre will work. That would be a concrete solution at present.

                        • From what OS are you running Calibre? Is it Linux? What says $ sudo mtp-detect?
                        • Do you unlock the phone before connecting it (even with your password or pin in the file manager)?
                        • Have you tried running Calibre as root?

                          1. I am running openSUSE Tumbleweed for my calibre library. There is no sudo mtp-detect command
                          2. Yes. It's on a 5 minute timer before auto-locking.
                          3. I am not running any program with sudo unless I am 100% certain I won't accidentally screw up assignments of files and folders. I learnt that years ago with "sudo firefox". Reassigning ownership for 2500 ebooks is something I am not keen on doing.

                            1.- You need to install mtp-tools http://software.opensuse.org/package/mtp-tools
                            2.- Just for testing, try it with all the unlocking you can, including developer mode.
                            3.- Good. Never run any command or script if you don't fully understand it. Said that, reassigning ownership for 2500 ebooks only takes a few seconds with chown command.

                              Forgive me for being a bit chuffed. I know what sudo calibre does. I also frequently employ chown as well. What I do not understand is the need to run calibre as sudo just to get file transfer working (if that will even work) when I can transfer files to my android and LineageOS devices without involing sudo. I would appreciate more detail on what the intention is before I execute the command.

                                @rewarp, maybe you want to edit your serial number 😉 Just put some XXXXX

                                I've made a quick test connecting a Debian box to my Ubuntu phone and Calibre fails to write to the sd card. However I can write to the sd card using mtp directly (v.g. making a directory named "Books").

                                It seems Calibre have a problem with read/write perms.

                                I'll try to check this out when I have more available time, sorry.

                                I have not been able to find a guide to connect calibre to that specific folder on my MicroSD Card

                                I forgot to comment that if Calibre sees your device, you can click in "Card A" and in the dropdown menu there's an option to specify a directory (folder).

                                  This is what my options are for the SD Card:

                                  Card detected in calibre, options shown.

                                  I have gone through the options, and they do not work at present.

                                  I've made a quick test connecting a Debian box to my Ubuntu phone and Calibre fails to write to the sd card. However I can write to the sd card using mtp directly (v.g. making a directory named "Books").

                                  Yes, I have already mentioned that I can write to the SD Card directly. My problem is I cannot get calibre to do it through its interface.

                                  But I do appreciate the assistance in this endeavour.

                                    As an addendum, I guess I will wait until the transition to Ubuntu 16.04 for my tablet before filing a bug report to calibre upstream. I wouldn't want the developer to spend time on a platform that is about to be deprecated.

                                      @rewarp, yep good idea.
