Onyx Boox i62HD. Software updates.

[szlevi]

Thank you, guys!
I don't think that it should be the case, because the dictionaries installed by me on the device don't work unfortunately. By the way, I have no idea what the cause of it could be. I have the "dict" map, the "submap" called after the name of the dictionary, and the 3 files in it (IFO, DZ, IDX). It should be enough, I suppose.. Any suggestions?

I asked if you have installed several dictionaries because I have (seven of them) and my Firefly is now behaving somewhat slowly either opening epubs or double tapping on a word to bring up the dictionary entry. Just trying to figure out whether there's a connection.

Hello szlevi,
Could it be that the folder name is not right. Must be "dicts".

Hello Nausica,
You've just solved my problem! It works!
Thank you very much!

I'm glad you solved it :-)

Hi,
Would it be possible for page numbers to remain the same, even if font or zooming size changes like in the cybook odyssey ?

And to remove the page numbers on the right of pages in the pdf reader?

Fonts can be copied with the unofficial file manager OTFM. So you can install first OTFM. But be careful with OTFM because as you can see system files you can delete/overwrite too!

I tried to copy new fonts to a "fonts" folder in the internal memory and the firefly sees them. So, apparently, no need to dig into the system files, for that purpose at least.

Is there any news on a more Firefly fitting firmware upgrade? Right now it feels like it is the wrong software in the right hardware.

I totally agree and wonder about the same thing.

Does this update apply to the Firefly also? And is there something more substantial in sight yet for the Firefly in terms of firmware?

For me confirmation is still needed after installation of patch.

We also appreciate Firefly firmware.

A greeting.
