Random bookmarks fw 3.2.0

Noticed that 3.20 fw was creating random bookmarks in a few books i am currently reading. The bookmarks will apear when page turning.

Anyone else?

Regards

Jack

This might be related to the random occurrences I get of faulty page turns.

I often read with the Glo set to treat taps on the left hand side as page forward. On a regular basis I either go back one or two pages, or have it act as if I have pressed the top or bottom of the screen and displays the menu.

Yes, same behaviour on glo with latest firmware here. I always have my kobo set to go forward with a left edge touch and I've noticed a few random bookmarks since update. Woke my glo from sleep this morning, pressed around the middle of the left edge and got a bookmark instead of a page turn.
It's not happening enough to be irritating at the moment, but it shouldn't be happening at all really.

I updated yesterday and it happened to me some time after that, I thought I must have taped in the upper corner when changing page without noticing although I was grabbing it in the middle not at the top. Now I know it was not me. Hope it doesn't happen often.

When I am page turning, I slide right to left, or left to right depending on things. And its usually near the bottom of the page. Also I am using my Aura HD.

Yes I am getting the random bookmarks but on only one of my ereaders. The rest seem to work okay.

I've had no problem with the epub reader, but with kepubs I have been getting bookmarks and the menu bars popping up sometimes when tapping the centre-right of the screen.

I have noticed the same problem, but I thought I was doing something wrong. In a way I'm glad it's a firmware thing (meaning I'm not as clumsy).

Same here. Tapping right edge (at the middle or just below) sometimes creates a bookmark instead of page-turn. And sometimes it opens the menubars of my Glo instead of page-turn. Reading epubs, sideloaded, Fw. 3.2.0.

For those of you having this issue, I have found one solution.... Install the hack that adds the swipe support to the Glo and Aura HD.

One caveat, I'm not sure how this will affect the next upgrade.

And I can confirm this works (thanks Peter!) after about a week of using it.
