Standard apps (games) pocketbook 302, where to find?
Hi there, I just received my pocketbook 302 last Friday. I am quite happy with how it works, only Wifi is still a problem, but I already read much about this here. It is not a real problem for now, I guess I just wait for a new firmware upgrade and hope it is solved then. (also, I think swapping this pocketbook for another will not help much, since it is a software error)
Another thing is that I received my pocketbook, strangely enough, without any of the apps. No games, no scribe, no dictionary...I already mailed the webshop about this, but since it is weekend I'll have to wait. I am a bit afraid they will want me to send my pocketbook back to them, to exchange it for a new one. I rather don't want that, since I already installed the new firmware, changed the thing to my liking, added books and a dictionary and so on. Therefore I was hoping that someone could tell me if those games are somewhere to find on the net (especially the program scribe!), so I could just install them myself. I could not find it on the pocketbook site itself. Thanks in advance! |

odd...google translate chokes on that page (cannot display) as does babel fish, while I myself can visit the site fine (but can not understand it) .

It worked last time I tried...
Has it stopped working? I suppose I could upload what I got from there; it's a bit over 5Mb... Still not sure about the rules on redistribution of that stuff. Last edited by fjtorres; 07-04-2010 at 06:53 PM. |

Someone should copy and zip the standard apps in their PB302 and upload them 'ere.

Here they are.
Simply copy the content to /games/ on your PocketBook. |

Ulli, thank you so much!
I am so glad with this, since I just phoned my webshop and they claim that the pocketbook 302 should be delivered without any apps (which is not true), so I am afraid they don't want to send anything or swap my pocketbook for a new one. But now that is not a problem anymore. Last edited by Saille; 07-05-2010 at 07:41 AM. |

awesome! Thanks.
I guess it's too much to hope that someone's made any sort of contact app that syncs with anything? d |

Well, after some email conversation it became clear that they thought this problem could simply be solved by installing new firmware. I explained them this is not the case. They seem to have obtained more pocketbooks without the apps, so they are going to contact Pocketbook to find out how this could have happened.
I myself finally discovered the apps on the pocketbook: they were in a trashes folder on the system! In the trashes folder I found a folder called "501" , in which I finally found the apps. Very strange! |

Looks like you got a special edition for tech geeks who can find the hidden apps
