You have to use modified firmware for the flash to be successful. Try reading through this thread:

I no longer have use the Chinese firmware. It was pretty much typical computerized reading as far as I can tell... no idea on how it compares to other readers. You could change the rate, tone and voice style.

I have always assumed that the Libre runs Linux but is there actually proof that it does?

It does. You can extract the firmware, unsquashfs/unencrypt it and see/change the files.

Fascinating idea....but....
My poor/tired jetbook rejected the Chinese firmware updates, sadly.
This may be complicated by the fact(s) of this particular JB. It came with FW 0.33g, which has been upgraded to 0.35a through a very convoluted process and it is NOT a happy JB at all anymore !!! In sheer desperation to find ANYTHING that works now I searched on -jetbook libre 0.33h- and found: Quote:
Also worthy of note is that now my FW upgrade messages are in both english and some Asian language... (Tried 0.34c and got the same exact result ?!) Anybody have any good clues for me here ??? |
