OCR does not work without SD card #10

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I have the Droid Incredible (Android 2.1 + Sense) that comes with 8GB of 
onboard storage.

I want to be able to use the OCR without getting a separate SD card. wwwjdic 
should have an option to use onboard memory instead of SD cards to store the 
temporary OCR files.

Well, this is by design. It was necessary in order to be able to pass the image 
to the camera app for cropping. But since the camera app is no longer used for 
cropping, this should be doable. I'll look into it.

Just out of curiosity, do you really use your phone without an SD card?

OK, I get it now. The so called 'internal storage' behaves just like an SD 
card. There is no standard way to access it though, so this is going to work 
only on the Incredible (and possibly similar HTC phones). You'll have to test 
it for me, since I don't have that phone.

Sure I'll test it for you. 

Could you elaborate on why this would only work for the incredible? What do you 
mean by "behaves just like an SD card"?

'Behaves just like an SD card' means you can mount/unmount it on your computer 
and copy/delete files. There is no standard way (Android API) to know where the 
external storage is mounted, that's why it might work only on the Incredible. 
The internal storage is available at /emmc for the Incredible, but there is no 
way to know where, say, the next Motorola phone with internal storage will 
mount it.

Try out the (completely untested!) snapshot version in downloads. There is a 
'Use internal storage' option in OCR settings.

i just tried out the snapshot version and it still says "could not save temp 
file on SD card".

Did you check the 'Use internal storage' option?
