Hi,

Newbie here.

2 questions:

1. Is there any limitation in using the Kindle app, except for perhaps a diff Kindle version due to Android OS.

2. Can the Android OS support other language? In my case that would be Traditional Chinese.

Thanks in advance.

Hi.

I know that this post is old...
I have tryed to search about how to root (jailbreak) my T2.

unfortely I have a T2 with firmware 1.1.x and I have read that sony has closed the possible to root it.

But are there really no way to root it?

Is it right that there is no possibility to put android-apps (jailbreak) on the PRS-T2
any more as (nearly) all byable, used PRS-T2 have Version 1.0.05.12140 on it and not 1.0.04.11081
and there is no way meanwhile in 2025 to jailbreak it any more (even no RS232 pad on the board)?

It's such an ancient Android there would be few even if it was possible.
It's eink and Pearl 6″ 800 x 600 (I think). Even an eink Android 8.x with Playstore is rubbish.

It's a nice ereader and 32G card works. That's it.

I wanted to install dolphin browser to have https but as jailbreak does not work any more I realy again bought rubbish.

But as used Boox reader are extremely expensive does there not exist any cheap alternative?

Browsers are poor to rubbish on any ink. I've had many including Android.

The eink is great for reading novels.
