Works in KT3 after a hack!

The screen freezes after showing the Launcher menu. Touches are not responded to.
{Model: KT3(W), FW:5.8.0, Serial:G000KA}

From some earlier posts:

Probably we can find the reason in the

vlasovsoft/launcher.log.txt

file.

Another reason can be: I have not added support for KT2 yet. Please post here the first 4 symbols of your reader serial number. Probably I need to add it in the launcher.sh
I haven't enabled logging yet. For KT3, the first 4 characters are G000

I need to know what device is used for touch screen in the KT2

KT uses /dev/input/event3
KPW uses /dev/input/event0
KPW2 uses /dev/input/event1

You can find it if you have usb network.

please try

evtest /dev/input/event0
..
evtest /dev/input/event3

and figure out which device responds when you touch the screen.
From kterm, ls /dev/input gives: by-path event0 mice
evtest works for event0. Doesn't work for event1 or event3
KOReader which initially didn't work on KT3, later worked after changing the eventx value in one of the lua files. But that trick doesn't seem possible here?

I jailbroke it by serial and installed KUAL.

I was wondering if you would like to add support for Kindle Voyage in pbchess. The serial I've got starts with B013. It was bought in US. I'm on FW 5.6.1 and the touchscreen device is /dev/input/event1 (tried it with evtest).

Myself, I shamelessly hacked your "launcher.sh" to add "B013) model="KPW2" ;;" in the right place, disguising my Voyage as a PaperWhite 2... I'm probably using PW2's resolution though...

For the rest, everything works, except for the known problem with the screen not refreshing after exiting vlasovsoft. Sleeping and waking solves it, so does clicking somewhere blindingly and then going home.

Let me know if I may help with anything.

Thanks again,
Claude.
I tried putting
Code:
G000) model ="K4";;
as also KPW, KT2, KPW2... into "launcher.sh".
Putting "KPW" worked!
