I don't remember which cover had the ferrite sticker; the Forefront or the Moko. I put down a review for both of them. One of them didn't work at all (no sleep function); that was *NOT* the one with the ferrite sticker.

The one with the ferrite sticker worked when folding the cover back (reader stayed on), but was unreliable when closing the reader (not always putting it to sleep). Maye the new firmware made it more reliable. I don't know.

PS: A ferrite sticker is a magnet block/dispersion, so the reader doesn't see the sleep magnet through the back of the cover. I've searched for it, but I can't find them anywhere. Maybe they have a different name. I call them ferrite stickers because they are stickers (duh), and contain ferrite.
The standby of my extremely el-cheapo cover (6€) from China works perfectly since the firmware update. Alas it has no flap so you wouldn't like it.
