Here's what I noticed on my H2O, after installing 3.18.0 and adding FullScreenReading=True to the config file -- Definitely the every page refresh that GeoffR noted, but I haven't heard anyone say that it is a very intrusive refresh -- I actually get a double flash where you can see a full page black screen for a nano-second. When I tick the box to get my header and footer back, the refresh goes back to whatever my reading settings were at (4 pages in my case)....BUT....moving between chapters of a book (kepub) I get the very intrusive refresh.

Deleting the FullScreenReading=True line from my config file solved all problems (except, obviously, being able to read full screen, which I don't personally care about).

So, without that config line addition, I think 3.18.0 is an improvement. There's definitely less ghosting, so I can set my page refresh to a higher number. Unscientifically, it seems at least as -- if not more -- snappy as 3.17.3.

The only bug still going on that I'd like to see fixed is the inability to turn off the screen if you're plugged into a charger (vs. a computer).

And thanks, as always, to GeoffR for the quick patches for new firmwares.
