Thanks.,

There's an April update to the Booxtor version. Nothing for the Lynx.

I have found these problems in the new Neo Reader:

1. Eraser tool in the notes/scribble didn't work.
2. After adjusting zoom/selection (navigation mode = single), page turn doesn't work correctly. Instead of turning page it scrolls the page.
3. Improper behaviour of switching the toolbar to scribble mode after the third tap.
The third tap should rather start the main menu if there is a longer period of time between the second and third tap. Otherwise it should start the scribble mode.

None of these problem were present in the previous version (2014-10-14).

Onyx Boox M96 Update 2015-04-06

Booxster, can we start getting release notes with updates that tell us what's fixed, what are new features and any known issues ?

I thought there may have been performance and M96c touch screen improvements whereas others have complained that Neoreader seems to have lost features, but none of us know what was supposed to be in the release so how can others decide whether they want to update our not ?

Onyx Boox M96 Update 2015-04-06

It is not good enough. I've rolled my M96 back to 20141013.

I own a T68 and mine looks faster, I notice a new "feature" on status bar but I have no idea what it is, has two arrows...

Some apps I've installed cannot open with the latest update. I guess it's because they require Google Play Services to run and the Google Play Services is not compatible with the latest update. I thought downgrading my M96 to the previous version would solve the problem, but I still had the same problem. I had to do factory reset and ended up re-installing all the apps. What a wast of time...

So be careful before you apply the latest update.

When in <> mode holding the top right physical button causes a refresh of the screen. In +- mode it does not (although the top left button still works and has since the previous update).

Hello, Can anybody provide the update 2015-01-20 for M96 please? Unfortunately, I need Google Play services, therefore, I need to rollback the system to the update. Regards, Michal

20150204 --> update.zip
20150225 --> update.zip

Thank you, I have tried all these updates, however the problem with Google Play services appears in all updates. Perhaps, there is a general problem with compatibility of Android 4.0.4 and the current version of Google Play. I need to utilize some applications from Google Play (Dropbox and so on), is there any idea how to use Google Play on M96 now? Thank you for an answer.

You need to do factory reset to solve the problem with Google Play services. After that, you can update your M96 to 20141013

The problem is on the last update of Google Play Service app, it is not compatible with Android 4.0.x. So, any app that needs Google Play Service is going to give you problems. If you have a hotmail account you can use your 25gb of OneDrive instead of Dropbox.

A factory reset is a temporary solution because each time Google Store activate Download Manager, the latter download the last Google Play Service update and it causes the problem again.

Best.
