Touch SD Card Problems with 1.9.11

Tangent · 09-28-2011, 10:02 AM

The latest firmware update is causing some to have problems with their SD cards.

Problems include being kicked back to the home screen after a page turn or complete failure to read from the SD card.

A factory reset does not seem to help completely (or at all).

What issues are you seeing and what workarounds have you found for this annoying issue?

I am running 1.9.11 and have encountered annoying problems with books loaded on the mircoSd Card.

Yesterday I loaded a book on the card and discovered that a couple of things happen with the update which didn't happen before.

Occasionally the book will close when you turn the page kicking you back to the home screen. Usually there is no bookmark for where you have been.

In fact most of the time when you get kicked back to the home screen the sd card will no longer be mounted. No books from the sd card will be available if you search for the books. To solve the problem simply pop out the sd card and reinsert it. That allows you to see the books on the card, and open your books again with bookmark intact, but does not prevent the whole thing from happening again.

Very annoying.
