2. Turn the device off
3. Insert SD card. Press joystick button and hold it, then press power button.
4. When it shows ”Software update request detected, checking updates...” at the bottom of the screen, release joystick button

i don't know what the changes are yet. but i know that coolreader now doesn't perform as well with epubs. so don't use the new firmware if you rely heavily on coolreader for epubs.
Thank you so much.
I saw the instructions but i was thinking to maybe found a readme inside...with the diff.
So far i'm opening both pdf and epub with pdfreader (and i have no idea what is using for cbr/cbz but the support there is much more rough).
I think i will write to arta tech asking.
It's pretentious putting a firmware without prospecting the benefits in term of bugfix and added features.
