How can I install Onyx neo reader?

bruja_phoenix · 07-11-2014, 05:26 AM

Hi everyone,
I have a M96 and really wanna install on it the neo reader app for reading pdfs, but I can't figure out how can I do... I only can install apps from google store, but neo reader isn't there and when I install a reader app it doesn't show in the open book option, as in this video:

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks everyone.

Neo Reader is a part of our system updates. Just install system update and it will be available in the apps folder and menu "open with.."

bruja_phoenix · 07-11-2014, 08:18 AM

I checked for updates from the device, but it says the system is up to date... what can I do?

bruja_phoenix · 07-11-2014, 11:47 AM

P. S. I bought My device from your website. :-)

Sorry Booxtor, but it's not avaible with the last update.
I updated manually, and it doesn't show up.
And as bruja_phoenix says, trying OTA update says there's no new update avaible.

Only OReader, FBReader and Coolreader show up when I "Long click" on the covers.
On the other hand, on Onyx T68, we can choose OReader, OnyxReader and Onyx Neo Reader, appart from others that I installed manually...

bruja_phoenix · 07-12-2014, 02:47 AM

So... is there any way to install it somewhere from? :-(

I just checked the update package - Neo Reader is definitely a part of it.
I don't understand, why it does not work for you, to be honest

.
Are you sure you are trying to open an EPUB or PDF document?
Anyway, in a couple of days I will post new update, so please just check it out.

PremaEbooks · 07-16-2014, 06:57 AM

Just to confirm that Booxtor is RIGHT. I tried again, and now Onyx Neo Reader shows up when openning a PDF or EPUB.
It is a mistery why the first time a installed the update it didn't work, but now it does.

@bruja_phoenix try again, if you want, installing the update. It really works.

Confirmed.

hello,
I have a question about this reader: how can I justify the text of an epub with Onyx Neo Reader?

I see no option to do that.

Easier to set it in the EPUB CSS

Ok, usually, we (spanish speakers) like to have justify text, but I read A LOT in english and most of the books I buy are left-aligned.
If the book is not under DRM protection you can modify the code in CSS. That's what I do most of the times

If you don't have HTML and CSS knowledge it might be hard to find the class that controls the alignment, and if is a Calibre conversion is even more difficult.

Send me your CSS and I'll explain you what you have to change.
You have a PM in your inbox.
Follow those steps.

Yes, I am sure.
I tried to download the update posted here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...56&postcount=1 and follow the istructions, but when I click on "Check update from local storage" it returns me "Upgrade package and the current model do not meet" and I dowloaded 2 times to be sure it was the one under the label "M96 update".
What am I doing wrong?

@bruja_phoenix

I explain you what I do to update, in case you want to try again

Put the update.zip file in the main root of the device, not in an SD card.
Safely disconnect your device and go to settings--->Update
Choose update from local store

If everything is correct, the update should start inmediately.
Don't try to update from the SD card. I had problems with that.

It worked on both, M96 and T68, each one with its proper update file. It takes a while, about 5-7 minutes.

After that, when you "long press" on a PDF or EPUB file Onyx Neo Reader is avaible to choose.
