"Tea" Touch HD (pocketbook) access local library?

gozbc · 09-05-2025, 08:08 AM

Hello, i got the Touch HD (PB631), which was sold by Cultura here in France and i upgraded to the original pocketbook firmware to get better features overall. It went fine, however lost access to local library. Found a post showing explaning to create a file.app with this code :

Code:

#!/bin/sh
/ebrmain/bin/openbook /ebrmain/bin/browser.app -notoolbar -pixelratio 1 "http://hub-ereader.tea-ebook.com/pocketbook"

I did but it refuses to launch (from applications, obviously). I'm not sure why since all the mentionned files in the script are here on my ereader. Tuto was for another PB, but still should be working.. Please tell me what i'm missing?

PS: Posting here and not in french section because there are very few people if any, much more chance to get help here

The code you provided opens a browser page on my ereader (PB632), stating:

Quote:

Bonjour, vous n'avez pas accès à votre librairie suite à un problème technique.

Pour y accéder, veuillez nous envoyer le lieu d'achat de votre liseuse ainsi que son numéro de série (Aller dans Paramètres > À propos de l'appareil > Modèle de l'appareil) à contact@vivlio.fr. Merci !

When you click on the app from the menu does it just hang?

Did you create the file.app within Windows? I remember having issues with app scripts created in Windows Notepad not working correctly due to different end-of-line (EOL) characters used by the text editor.
If you are using windows, install the text editor "Notepad++" and set "EDIT > EOL conversion" to "Unix" for your file.app.

I've attached the file.app from my device which seems to work... testing this will rule out the EOL character issue.

I still don't understand why people can't come back, after asking for help and getting it, to give a feedback about if it worked or not.

Am I getting old by thinking this is an asocial behaviour resulting in less and less people giving those helpful tips (not even considering that other reader with the same problem might need that confirmation too, to solve their problems)?

It does feel a little like having an enjoyable TV show cancelled before getting narrative closure.
