And I'll send you a small script to test the memory problem (do you manage to send ssh commands? If so, I'll send you two commands!) Quote:
EDIT: IF ANYONE ELSE HAVE THAT FORCE CLOSE PROBLEM, PLEASE TRY SENDING THESE COMMANDS: Code:
sqlite3 /var/local/appreg.db "INSERT INTO properties (handlerId, name, value) VALUES ('com.silver18.komic001','memUnloadLevel','150000')" sqlite3 /var/local/appreg.db "INSERT INTO properties (handlerId, name, value) VALUES ('com.silver18.komic001','memWarnLevel','71680')" The first command should change the default memory level for unloading the WAF, the second one should change the default memory level for warning. I ask to try this not because I need some guinea pigs (I already did it on my Kindle and everything is fine) but because I don't get that force close problem often!! If you have it, give it a try and report. If it works, I'll add this workaround to next release! Last edited by silver18; 09-12-2012 at 01:35 PM. |

hey silver here are some suggetions for bringing back pinch to zoom. I dont know whether they work or not. I know this sort of bad that I am not knowing if this is risky or not but I am just trying to be helpful:
1) the most obvious and easy way: make a kindlet 2) we know that kindle supports hyperlinks and all in a book, so why not put buttons in a pdf, book or prc to make it work just like komic 3) look at the whole code that is running on the kindle, if you see anything that disables features in waf apps, disable it. I know you have already tried disabling a option but might be there are more. 4) reverse engineer the kindle os and try to understand every bit of code :0. ONCE YOU HAVE GRASPED ALL OF IT,START MODIFYING THE PARTS THAT YOU THINK MIGHT BE DISABLING PINCH TO ZOOM. 5) compare the code of the kindle os 5.1.x and 5.0.x. as 5.0.x had pinch to zoom why not fiind the differences understand them and disable/enable the ones that might be causing the problem. NOTE: I don't know if these work. these are just guesses. try at your own risk!!! |

(And this really isn't the right time as I'm in a hurry to get my degree and I'm also out of money!) As regards the other suggestions, I don't really want to "reverse engineer" an OS just to bring back pinch-to-zoom! I know where the problem should be and I think the best way to solve this is to study the browser WAF (as it has pinch-to-zoom)!! You can do this also by yourself!!! Just keep waiting, I'll solve this!! Otherwise, try the stock imageviewer from Amazon!!! |

Thx for Komic! It is really great to have and I love that it keeps getting better ;-)
So just one short idea: Would it make sense to have a possibility to launch the latest bookmark directly from the starting menu? Since now having that autosave option and the app also showing the last read folder/item. |

I mean: 1) last read+orientation: if ON, when opening Komic you'll be redirected to last read comic using the last used orientation 2) last read != orientation: if last read is ON, when opening Komic you'll be redirected to last read comic but in portrait mode. If also orientation is ON, you'll use the last used orientation. I prefer first option but it has one downside: if ON, you'll be always redirected to last read. You can't keep the last used orientation without being redirected to a comic! |

Few fixes done (smarter way of handling the new "go to last read" option + some improvements here and there).
And, what about a "Check for updates" feature??? Spoiler:

Komic can now download and install updates by itself.
Use the "check for updates" script to check if a new version of Komic is out and, then, automatically download and install the update. |

Do you think so?
I did it just to become familiar with wget/curl... Anyway, do you know how to execute a shell script if the user touches somewhere in the screen? I need to execute the download/update script only if needed (something like "touch here to proceed")...I recall you used something like this to exit from a program... |

You can also detect touches with waitforkey, running in the background. Last edited by geekmaster; 09-25-2012 at 10:54 AM. |
