3) Mantano reader premium (allows you to listen to your ebooks in plain simple English, it works with IVONA mentioned above.

4) Opera mini (if you are miserly with mb)

5)Opera mobile (if you get mb like water)

6)Uc browser (sweet browsing an downloading)

7)Pirate bay (for torrent download, works with Ttorrent pro mentioned below)

cool Ttorrent Pro (works with pirate bay, for the guy wen sabi)

9) Zarchiver (works like winrar on pc)

10) Opera mini/Ucbrowser handler (for the awouf guys).

If yes, How do I go about this?
Thanks in ad.

Yes, thats what I am using.
Go to google play download Ivona tts Hq, on the same page you'll see the voices available ie. British, American and others.

I recommend Amy british english, its the best. Download AMY and open it, will request to download voice data. Note that the voice data is in excess of 200mb. It is worth every byte.

Now download Mantano reader premium, if you can't pay for it get it from 4shared.com or blackmart alpha. Try to download ebooks in .epub format.

If you want you can download Tecarta Bible from google play. it also works with tts to read your bible to you

No, its not java, its android. Getting Java to work on android is not easy unless you are on Froyo. Once you are on Gingerbread and above, its another story entirely.

For Opera mini 6.5 and Uc browser 8.6 Handlers for android, go to:

http://sivadass.wapka.mobi/site_android_hui.xhtml

I don't have the link for opera 7 handler at the moment. However, you can google it, searching will broaden your knowledge.

please I need your help, I downloaded Amy British English and open it and it request to download a voice data worth of 200mb and I started downloading, though there was no good network for me to download it and it was hanging for more than 2day, I decided to uninstall the Amy British English and reinstall when I have a good network. today I downloaded the Amy and when I launched it didn't request to voice data, but working. and is not reading most of the engineering ebooks I downloaded and iam using moon reader pro, what might be the cause, is it because of the voice data or is from the moon reader pro

How do I use torrent pro?
Re: 10 Must-have App For A New Android User by donlyone(m): 8:06pm On Jun 07, 2013
donmatin: How do I use torrent pro?

Download the latest tTorrent pro, it has its own search engine, you can search for whatever you want. it also gives you choice of choosing the site to search from.

Alternatively, you could download the pirate bay browser to search for torrents, when you click on download sign at the top, tTorrent pro is called up to download the torrent file.

isidollarboy: I have tried it but no luck any other thing...please help

when you open your app (ie. ivona Amy) you should have a screen like the one posted below, press PLAY at the bottom to to read text in the dialogue box. if it reads it out, then your good just download MANTANO PREMIUM reader and use it.

Hope you know how to enable ivona in settings. Ordinarily, when you open AMY for the first time there should be a prompt asking you to enable ivona in settings, click on it and it will take you to the right place.
