Verse Pro - page jump problem

Hello,

I've read a few books on the Pocketbook Verse Pro and while actively reading the experience is fine.

The problem I kept running into is that if I open a ebook with "PB Reader (EPUB 2)" if I lock the screen and then un-lock the screen would cause the pages to jump back a few pages. I tried using the power off option, however when I did that it moved me from the middle of the chapter back to the beginning of the chapter I was reading.

Then when I try "PB Reader (EPUB 3)" that problem doesn't seem to happen but I have to page through 5 or 6 button clicks at the end of every chapter before it'll go to the next chapter. Or I have to use the Table of Contents to navigate to the next chapter.

Is this a common experience for the newer Pocketbook readers? Or did I buy a lemon?

With my Pocketbook HD2, when I put the ebook on standby/locked screen, or power off when I restart the story it's always exactly where I left off.

I'd appreciate any and all advice.

Thanks,
Amalthia
