Pro Models: Firmware 2.1.2 RC6 - Page 2

alegeott · 12-09-2011, 07:00 AM

I can open music from the SD card with the music player without problem, but I formatted the internal memory before upgrade the firmware (from 2.1.2 RC3 to RC6).

On RC3 version with pdfviewer, on landscape mode, you have to do a long press and work perfectly.

Also, I do not know why the guys on development do not use a real scroll instead of page squares. sometimes drawing or text get into to the area where you can not read it, because one half is in one side, and the other half other side.

my 2cents

I will keep this RC6 for now

A related bug in pdfviewer in 602: in two column landscape mode, after getting to the bottom of the second column, when you click any "next page" or "forward" button you mapped, the page goes back to the top of the second column -- you have to scroll through the second column again in order to turn to the next page. I have tried all mapping possibilities. Nothing helps.

P.S. Nothing helps unless you change "automatic orientation" to "fixed landscape"

I found another bug, when I change fonts, they do not change in the epub file

THis RC6 for 902 is too buggy!

The 2.1.2 final for Pro has recently released in the bugtracker an hour ago and i am sure it will be released by Forkosigan in the german forum in a little while.

This is nice for the 903, but the 902 are left behind

I will upgrade anyway

Where is the "bugtracker" thread - if I may ask? There is nothing in the Russian thread/forum

paola · 12-16-2011, 04:16 AM

well, if Google translate is to be trusted, from what I understand it is still only for closed testing - on the Ukranina forum they are asking whether it is going tobe available for everyone today, le'ts see.

PB have internal bug tracker, simple users like you or me have no access to it. Only beta testers can report or check already reported bugs.

skydive · 12-16-2011, 06:22 AM

that's sucks!

Well, we will continue posting here

Announced on the Russian forum a moment ago.

2.1.2 final versions are here:

One PDFviewer bug is not fixed - at least not for 602. It is even worse now. No matter you choose "automatic screen orientation" or not, if you read in two column mode, the page won't turn at the bottom of the second column. It goes back to the top of the second column. You have to go through that column again to get to the next page. Mapping for pdfviewer does not work.

Adobeviewer turns pages as it should but dictionaries open and work EXTREMELY slow in it - another problem I had reported to the Russian forum before the final release but not taken seriously.

What can I say? Multi-tasking is cool for reference books but if you read in two column mode - you will only get 2/3 of the designed page-turns per charge !!

thanks for the heads up - hopefully the EU site will aslo be updated.
I'll hcekc if I get your same bugs, and thanks!

I installed the 2.1.2 final without problems on my 602. I was enable to install the firsts releases of 2.1.2, only RC6 did work, and now the final.
Still have an issue with calibre. Memory and card A are swap and don't see any files on the card. I have to use "connect to folder".
To me the dictionary in pdfs don't seem more slow than it was. But doesn't see all the words, jumps a lot of words when I click next.

Dictionaries in Pdfviewer open fast and the cursor moves fast but not in Adobeviewer - on my device (602) the speed is intolerable - it may be faster if I just use a paper dictionary to look up words.

Update:
Tried the dictionary function in another pdf book with Adobeviewer and got normal speed. I guess for some pdf books, the dictionaries work much faster in pdfviewer than in Adobeviewer, for instance pdf with two columns - it takes 20 seconds to open the dictionary while in pdfviewer it opens instantly. Unfortunately pdfviewer has page turning problem in the two column mode.

Is this software update will work on PD902 United states devices?

My guess it works on all devices. I bought my 602 from U.S. online.
