5. Copy the relevant bin for your Kindle to the root folder (see list below).

Which list? I do not see the list telling me which files to copy. I have a kindle DXG. Am I blind?

please copy the "rtm0.5.13.8942 Beta0520\升级包\DXG升级包" in installation package and the DK documents,

My new OS version 3.2.1 does not support duokan without the ( break the upgrade package) as said in duokans page, but the link is broken, so i can not get the .rar. I have already tried to do it without this program but there is no way. As i said ( copy from duokan really) before there is no need to jailbrake with this rar. As you are duokan staff, can you put a link to this
break the upgrade package.rar

Also, another question Tracy. I managed to get Kindle Lite working, however how do I pan the text when zoomed in in Duokan??

Kindle allows precise panning of the document when zoomed in by holding down Shift + Direction arrow, such as left or right and the text will move by tiny increments, which is VERY convenient. Duokan seems to only do giant pan jumps, such as when you just hit left or right in Kindle without holding down Shift.

This is badly needed when reading PDFs with columns of text in them.

Thanks.

Because your dictionary has some problems, doesn't apply our requese. So ,change this dictionary.

Does Duokan let you customize screensavers?

of course

I've a small question. Duokan will treat all files with a format that it suports in the lowest folder as books, right? Is there a way to tell it to ignore certain folders?

I use the Kindle OS for Amazon books and Duokan OS for books in other formats and languages.

Natually, when I change screensavers I want to change them in both systems. For Duokan it's simple, just copy pictures to the "savers" folder. For the Kindle OS, I had to install jailbreak and screensaver's hack (kindle-ss-0.22.N).

Duokan, JB, and SS hack are all up and working fine. However, there's a little problem that troubles me.

I put new screensavers for Kindle OS in linkss\screensavers folder, they display nicely. But when I switch to Duokan system, Duokan recognizes all my new pictures in that folder, as well as the original portraits stored in the "backup" folder, as books. I had over 200 hundred new SS and each of them are showed as a book in Duokan book list and jamed it up.

I tried to go to settings and let Duokan use the Kindle OS screensavers(default Duokan is to use self defined SS, you can change that), whitch are now in linkss. I thought once Duokan draws screensavers from "linkss\screensavers" folder, it should know those puctures are not books. But no, those picture names were still on the book list.

At the end I have to reduce the number of SS for Kindle OS to less than five in order to clean up the Duokan booklist.

Is there a way out of the mess? I believe I'm not the only person that would use both systems...

The mesu should show all the pictures and files' name.

I am feeling pleased with myself as I have just successfully installed the full version of Duokan on my new Kindle 3g EU version with Firmware 3.2.1.

This was a little complicated in so far as I had to trawl through some of the chinese forums to work out what to do:

Look at http://www.duokan.com/forum/thread-24049-1-1.html Note: when I used Chrome browser the page auto loaded with the option to translate to English which was how I deciphered it!

Get the .rar file indicated in the post.

Look at Flip's site http://flip.netzbeben.de/2010/11/duo...ish-gui-today/

Download the English pre-configured package. You need the DK folders from this archive.

Next follow http://www.duokan.com/forum/thread-7709-1-2.html

It all proceeded just as the forum suggested.
