When Adding to Collections...
On both the Touch and the PW I've experienced quite frequently a pesky, annoying glitch. After long-touching the book I intend to add to a particular collection, I press "Add to Collection". At this point the screen refreshed with a huge blank rectangle occupying most of the display. On the PW this probably happens close to 50% of the time. Has anyone else experienced this on either device?
**UPDATE** Here is a pic of the glitch red handed....well....urm....white squared, anyway, or something... This happens all the time... Last edited by QofResh; 10-05-2012 at 03:42 PM. |

@QofResh: That vaguely rings a bell, yes. A back or home action cleared it up, IIRC. Although that might be tricky on the PW without the HW home key...

Interesting... I don't know if this will be any help or not, but I got that black box twice a few days ago on my K3/3G when I opened the font style/size/TTS dialog .
It had never happened before, so i attributed it to either the recent update we just got, or the fact that the book (very annoyingly ) used an embedded and miniscule font. |

Yes, about 50% of the time it just goes white on white. The only option is to hit the 'back' key and try again. Hopefully this will be fixed in an update. It is very annoying when adding nearly a hundred books to collections. I find the PW Kindle screen response to be very unresponsive a lot of the time. Surprisingly, however, the onscreen keyboard works pretty well.
