All;

I have a Onyx Boox Max 13.3" and installed ezPDF, WRITE and Google keyboard onto it using Google Play

BIG mistake.

I then tried to upgrade the firmware to 1.8.1 and although the upgrade ended successfully, everything else went wrong. Apps didn't work properly, Google Play kept on throwing up a 'Not Available' dialog box, WiFI totally failed (it was working well before) and on and on ...

I managed to reset the Max 13.3", got the Andriod recovery screen, choose 'WIPE OUT DATA' and subsequently the Max 13.3" underwent a proper reset and reverted to the new 1.8.1 firmware while totally wiping out all my custom apps.

Everything then went smoothly. WiFi work properly again, no more irritating dialog boxes from Google Play ..... the new firmware worked properly (and very well indeed).

So lesson learned.

No third party software henceforth

I do like the new 1.8.1 firmware. It's heads and shoulder above the previous version. I would very much like a native multi-tab reader (like Sony DPT-S1) though.

Warmest Regards
Steven Sim
