DR800+ uses UDS (pdf reader) from DR1000 so it's somehow possible there are some incompatibilities. Anyway, the back end libraries for annotations are the same so I don't think on any issues on this side.

Also the time it takes to load a PDF page was greatly increased compared with the last version of the DR800 software (was that called version 2?). So I tried to uninstall, but that made no difference. It looks to me like the uninstall failed but I'm not really sure how to check what's going on.
That's strange.
Last official firmware from IREX was 2.0RC3, the final version 2.0 was never released.
DR800+ is based on that last original firmware.
FBReader hasn't any connection with DR firmware (original or DR800+) so if there are problems they should come from other things.


So my recommendation is:
1. make a complete backup of your SD card
2. format SD card
3. reinstall original IREX 2.0RC3 firmware and copy your contents from the backup
4. play with it and check what works and what does not work
5. install FBReader and check again for any problems
6. try DR800+ and report any issue
