#299 Trying to load book from non-standard path /storage/extSdCard (4.4)

[Sirtow]

Hi, after updating my Samsung S4 to 4.4 , i cannot open the books from external sdcard.
Also, the external sdcard path is not in the "Browse file system" section.
It was working before the update on 4.3.
My version is 3.1.2-24

Did some digging and found a list of paths defined in : String[] knownMountPoints
My sdcard is mounted as /storage/extSdCard and also have a link to mounted folder as /mnt/extSdCard.
Is there anyway to configure this knownMountPoints without re-building the app?

Mind that there also is a problem with android permissions for external SD in 4.4.2 for SG4 and SGN3. There is a fix on XDA involving manual edition of permissions.xml file. But this requires root, though with the fix the problem is gone.

I have the fix applied already :) just tired manually create links manually
after each reboot.
