Couple of days ago (how I have no idea) it took itself off airplane mode & (annoyingly) downloaded all the waiting books BUT also
a) somehow made every book show the GoodReads pop-up "About This Book" whenever I open a book.
b) reduce the number of items per page shown in list mode from 8 down to 7.

The f/w hasn't altered - still 5.13.6 (thank goodness & the OTA binaries). Any thoughts about what's altered and how I could alter it back?

Thanks.
amazon can turn various features on and off.

From time to time someone figures out how to change some particular feature and makes a post, but it never gets written up in an organised way.

Your best option is probably to downgrade to some 5.11.x or 5.10.x firmware.
