Hi there, I have an ACcase as well but mine doesn't always open the page I was at when I closed it. How about yours?

Anyway to fix it, I really like the case otherwise.

Thanks

Well, as mine ages, the cover doesn't always line up the magnets perfectly. The front cover slumps a bit, as the spine ages and stretches. Once in a while I have to push the power button to prompt awakening. But I've never had anything change IN the book I'm reading (and I don't see that it's possible). Perhaps awakening is what you refer to?

A fix might be to square up the front cover before opening it, so that the magnets can do their "awakening" job.

Or, given the cheap price, at some point I might just buy another cover. My cover is 15 or 16 months old now. I suspect the spine slumping might happen on any cover.

Thanks,

Here's what happens to mine:

Let's say I was on page 50 when I closed the cover, when I re open, it will sometimes open at a few pages back. I really don't see how that is happening either but it does.

Just curious

Well, if the magnets aren't aligned correctly, then the kindle won't be put to sleep immediately. It will time out a bit later. The screen (and haptic buttons) are still live, and might be pressed somehow.

Ok that makes sense.

Thanks for your patience.

Just ordered a Swees black leather case.

Yes I need help but this is only 4, not 13 that I have for my phone.

My Fintie Map Cover opened up from the magnet side, I tried to glue it back but even after drying for around 24 hours it opened, so I guess I might have to discard it.

Did you use Gorilla glue?
If not try that and don't forget to weigh it down with something.

I did use gorilla glue and 3 heavy duty black paper clips. The magnets are extra strong so the first time I opened it it split.

I will use your method, fix the case and save for occasional use.

A heavy book would be a better weight.
Also, you could take out the magnets and make a dumb cover.

charlyee · 06-27-2016, 11:31 AM

Will do.

Good idea, thanks

Just got a Voyage last week and I'm leaning towards the Omoton case. Does anyone have any experience with Ayotu though? I like the look of this one but there aren't many reviews.

I don't know, but it looks very similar to the Omoton case, which I have and love. You probably can't go wrong with either one.

I bought a Poetic GraphGrip for the Voyage from ebay for $5 including shipping (I'm in the US FYI) and I love it!
