Hi guys!
I have my PW2 which is jailbroken and with KUAL, Kindle Menu Bundle and KOReader, plus USBnet.

With PW2 even from the beginning I have found it very difficult to make the toolbar appearing on top of the screen for performing various actions, eg to press the Home button to go to another application. I have sometimes to touch that top area of the screen even more than 10 times until making the toolbar come out. The screen seems to be OK in terms of touch properties, most probable it's me that I am not doing the right thing, i.e. pressing too long or too short or in the wrong area.

This is extremely annoying wher reading a book in pdf or other formats because my touches are triggering the text highlights and not the toolbar.
Also it happens that books in pdf or epub formats open directly in full-screen mode, therefore making the top toolbar to come out is even more difficult in Portrait mode. I am not even dreaming in Landscape mode (have tested with such a pdf file). The bottom KOReader settings bar is also difficult to handle.

Any advice from your side, please?
