"Currently" is the clue there

Of the 3000 people who have used this app I would like to thank the 4 of you who felt the need to donate.

Our server renewal is up and I still can't personally look to develop on a paperwhite, Also Stepk is struggling to develop for the lower devices not having a k3.

All excess proceeds would go toward providing literacy aids to underprivileged children.

Should anyone wish to contribute all the details are in the top link... And possibly I suppose I should put them in my signature. Thanks for using KUAL and it's associated - and growing - resources like the dedicated wiki, Support Forums etc...

I would personally like to thank stepk who I KNOW has poured countless hours into this next release and knc1 who has worked endlessly supporting the upcoming kual-system. And of course Ixtab without whom all of this would just be a dream.

Viva the KUAL!

Four? Four people sent an obole for the necessary tools to make a really useful application work on all devices?
Four out of all the people on this forum who expect instant replies, drop everything because they can't be ***sed to read instructions.
Words fail me.
If all of us did a couple of euros by paypal, which isn't exactly hard to do, which is the cost of a small beer, then that would not only buy enough kindles for proper testing but leave a good chunk over for a worthwhile projet.
Don't hang your heads in shame, get clicking.


Thank you KUAL team.

Do a lot of work for charity... Don't like to talk about it

is it any wonder the developers get discouraged ?
Give something away for free and people think it is worthless.
Charge a high price and they think it is worth something...

The kinked luxury demand curve BONKERS

I knew that Economics qualification would come in handy one day

Thanks for the kind thoughts and encouragement.

Having just spent 3 solid days hacking on the voice activated GUI facility I can do with a bit of head patting.

Sorry Jimmy-Jim. Things have been hectic.

Thanks for that. There was never any hurry and I know you guys have much bigger fish to fry.

I thought I mentioned that before but I could be wrong. :P

[twobob]

You probably did. But I tested it anyways.

I also updated the supported numbers on the main index when I realised I had missed that detail yesterday DUH!!

All fixed up now. IIRC I added some notes to the listing too.

I got about 1 hour behind my schedule here : (

EDIT: TC FIXED I sent you the info about the replacements done by the script also...

I found the cause of the problem. On the second case I replaced the azw2 file into a folder (like this documents/apps/KindleLauncher.azw2 ). Problem fixed after moving it into /mnt/us/documents/ .

[twobob]

It's hard linked to the documents location.

We should make a bigger note of that somewhere perhaps. Or possibly make it do a "Sanity" search.

Glad it wasn't a coding "fault".
Happy you are happy.

[twobob]

I would like to thank the people who took it upon themselves to put their hands in their pockets to support this project. We have now raised another £20 that will be put toward getting stepk a kindle 3. He really should be next on the list.

And to the bloke who donated twice. I could kiss you (You wouldn't like it but I could)
Perhaps one day we will meet the budget to get a PW.

Huge thanks again.

KUAL DEVS

[fonzie4msg]

Hmm .. big Problem ...
I installed all the prerequesites including the dev keys. After that i tried to start the kual launcher but its "not registered as a test device"

i reinstalled the dev keys .. and it worked. BUT after hitting "quit" and trying to rerun the kual launcher, the problem is reproduced ...."not registered as a test device"



-edit- my k3 not registered or anything. I reinstalled the devs again and no progress. not even for one time the applications is running

[twobob]

You haven't "registered" your device with Amazon have you...

I'll PM you

[twobob]

Done.

First of all thank you for your "Button" because I don't no USBNetworking.

I have a Paperwhite 5.31 with KUAL. I apply the FontConfig in KUAL and the Extra Fonts hide from Aa menu.
But the custom new fonts I put in the Fonts folder don't appear.

What I have to do?

Thank very much in advance

Your welcome.

What fonts are you trying to add? The fonts need to be named in a specific way:

Fontname-Regular.ttf
Fontname-Italic.ttf
Fontname-Bold.ttf
Fontname-BoldItalic.ttf

Try restarting your Kindle after adding your fonts.
