I am sorry for the delayed reply. I am afraid that the sidenotes no longer correlate to specific pages within the document now. I tried it with a new document, and saw the same behaviour.
There is a manual on the Onyx Boox website for 2.1, in which it confirms that sidenotes now relate to WHOLE DOCUMENT, and no longer correlate to the specific pages. Here is the link:

I emailed Onyx Boox support to help me return my Max 2 Pro (4GB version) back to firmware 2.0. I hope that my annotations will be compatilble after downgrading.

If you are using the sidenotes for making notes relating to specific pages within the document, I would advise you not to upgrade and perhaps contact Onyx to get further clarification.

Once again sorry for the delayed reply and hope its not too late!!

I didn't upgrade yet, so I would be grateful for the clarification.
Thanks!

EDIT:
By the way, after reading the other thread, where the NeoReader 3.0 on NOVA was discussed, I'll try first to extract the NeoReader 3.0 from the new firmware and side-load it on my existing firmware to see how it works. Actually it's a pity that Onyx does not release app updates but just a whole new firmware. With the app update it's always possible to revert to the original one but when you flash a new firmware you're stuck.
