Default RAVE on Android?

I read the thread on the iphone download...anyone know how to get it on Android?

I have a Galaxy S4. Uploaded it through a PDF app. Still no luck.

I have it on my S3 in multiple PDF files stored on the removable micro SD card. I just downloaded the version of RAVE that someone has put in multiple PDF files to my PC and transferred them via the USB cable to the SD card on the smartphone. I will try to find the link for RAVE in multiple PDF files and post it. I just go to the Apps and the File Mgr and the Ext SD Card and find the my LR folder I created and put the RAVE PDFs in that file. You should have a PDF reader of some kind on the phone, if not you can download a few different ones for free from the apps store.

I found the D1 manual which is what you need and downloaded it. It is one big PDF that is 12.6 MB on my PC. What I have in separate files is the D2 manual, so that will not help you. There are several applications you can download to your PC to print or save files to PDF, and there are others that allow you to combine PDFs. What I would recommend is to save pages 1 to X as a smaller PDF and name it to represent the chapters/sections of the larger PDF that are in the file. I would guess 6-10 separate files might work best and be a little more manageable to open on the phone. I am not sure the phone or the app on the phone could handle the 12.6 MB file.

I just reviewed my D2 files on my PC and there are a couple electrical diagram file names, but the main workshop manual is 36MB and I can open it on my S3. So if you download the D1 file from the landrover source link

http://www.landroverresource.com/doc...hop_Manual.pdf

You should be able to store it in your file system and view it with a PDF reader of your choice on the Samsung S4.

I downloaded it from the link and it was placed in My Files in The dowload folder in the sdcard0 folder. I just tapped it and it opened up pretty fast. I would guess the Galaxy S4 would not be that different than the S3.
