Hello,
i'm planning to update my t68 to version 1.8.2 (android 4.4) but i have a couple of questions for the case i have to roll back to 1.8.1: 1. can anyone provide me with a link to download 1.8.1 (Booxtor version) as i don't have a copy in my laptop? 2. My pag back physical button doesn't work anymore. is there a way to put my device in download mode in spite of this problem? thank you in advance for your help regards |

Brando: i've 1.8.1 taken from onyx website. I don't know if it's the same of Booxtor's yo're searching for but, if you anycase want a copy of it, i can put on my gdrive account.
About your 2) question: if you have a sdcard, you must not put t68 in download mode: enough should be to use internal T68 update tool and use update.zip file put on sd card itselsf (I repeat: NOT in the internal memory but in the sd card). Or, at least... This is how i make my updates..... HP |

but i've read that there are still problems in 4.4 firmware for T68, so I'll wait for a more stable version, before upgrading. regards |

I've installed version 1.8.2 on my t68 and it works ok. It's not Android 4.4, though.
The version with 4.4 (at the bottom of the download page of ereader-store) does not work, it shows an endless "process com.android.systemui has stopped" error. |

M96 firmware 1.8.2 - increased battery consumption by the screen
Since installing the latest firmware, I am experiencing significantly reduced battery life. When taking notes with Lecture Notes (my usual use case), the battery goes from full to 20% in 1-2 hours (earlier it would not lose more than 10% per hour). 80-90% of the consumption is by the screen.
Did anyone else experience something similar? Last edited by Jmirko; 06-21-2017 at 02:38 PM. |

I know that I should try with a factory reset, but I don't want to lose all my settings, so i'll charge it more often hoping in a better new version.. regards |

Hello guys,
Need some help as I updated my T68 using the internal update system and now it doesn't start at all! It is stuck on the standard "off" display with the picture of the Lynx. I have read this thread : https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=242726 But the MFGtool doesn't work (gets stuck on "Loading U-boot"). Any ideas? Really disappointed if it's truly bricked as I enjoyed reading on it.... |

Update: seems like high power consumption was a temporary issue, but the battery issues continue: 1. High and erratic battery consumption, e.g. battery lasted just 6 hours today, with light use (about 5-10 mins of note-taking in LectureNotes, the rest was idle or standby). Graph shows drastic changes in battery consumption, without any apparent reason. "Device idle" accounts for the majority (70-80%) of the consumption. 2. Charging via PC: battery status suddenly jumps to 100% (e.g. from 74%), and stops charging. After immediate reboot, the battery status is back down, i.e. full battery was misreported. I will try to reinstall 1.8.2 and report back. |

Considering that my 2-year warranty expired a few months ago, I think Ereader-Store have been really professional in resolving my problem. I will definitely keep them on top of my list for future Onyx purchases. |

T68 with 1.8.2 firmware, no root. Default reader. Moon+reader free edition.
I'm having random reboots while reading. Does anyone has such a similar behaviour? Battery charge is rarely below 40% but reboots happen in the entire range of charge. As said, no root and after upgrade t68 has had a "factory" reset". The only non stock app installed is Moon+reader. Also in "Settings-->App" i've disabled some apps, like the phone, messages and mail; T68 is always in Airplane mode for reducing battery drain ( in this mode i have anyway my wifi connection, when it's necessary). Any idea/suggestion about annoyng reboots? HP |
