thank you all for sharing experiences,
@ryzir, thanks for taking the effort and trying the application, and also thanks for sharing that thread, it is very useful.
@downeaster59, i don't mind the launcher being slow, i wont be switching any apps at all. the device will serve the purpose of reading manga 90 percent of the time.
@pajamaman, i'm sorry to hear that. i also saw your thread on xda-developers forum, and wonder if you tried to connect to the hardware serial console to unbrick your device?
Checking my options, i don't really have much choice in the place i live. i could currently buy a ngp, a tolino vision 4 hd, or a onyx boox vasco da gama. onyx boox one has a ppi of something around 200, so it is out. ngp seems okay for now.
I'm also wondering if the tolino vision 4 hd could serve the same purpose since it runs on android and it has frontlight temperature adjustment feature. Do you also have any idea on how easy it is to sideload tolino shine 4 hd with 3rd party android apps?
Can you also point any differences between the ngp and the ng3 in terms of sideloading 3rd party android apps? or is one of them are easier to unbrick in case something goes wrong, maybe?
My kobo aura hd has a hidden microsd card so even at the worst case scenario, you can take out the internal microsd card and flash it with the fresh system image on the pc, then the device comes back to life easily. I know it isn't easy to unbrick these devices with internal onboard storage but do they have a recovery-fastboot-hardware recovery mode that doesn't become unusable easily?
