I just installed the November update. I still get the front light control on the status bar dropdown menu.

Try this. Open a book in KReader (the stock reading app). Tap in the middle of the screen to bring up the bottom menu. Tap "More" Then tap "Front Light".

Now, go out of the book and try the status bar dropdown menu again and see if the front light control shows up.

I say this because that's what I had to do to get that front light to show up in the dropdown menu when my Nova arrived.

Anyone else have better luck?

Finally i get it, was really stupid thing i wonder now how i didn't try that. Application must be not frozen. I put goldendict and moonreader to not frozen and now detects the dictionary.

Also i notice that you can press in settings/apps/gfc and do some register i thing i didn't done before. But store still acts not allowing to install buyed apps. And moonreader dissapeared from my installed apps. So trying things i get working moon and golden not frozing both apps.

Well let's see if they fix this, but at least i can use it goldendict.

For some reason, I didn't even think of the dict app being frozen! Yes, that fixed it. Thanks.

it works. i have purchased apps that appear normally as purchased; make sure you have logged in with the right google account you used to make the purchase or just log in the play store with all google account you mightve used in the past.

in the onyx app store that comes built in' i just found there is an app called mixed dimming app; above the play store patch directly.

i am not sure if missed it up to now or was it newly added; but it is awesome !

Of course, i'm login with the account i used to buy the apps. And they appear with the price and i'm unable to install them.

Do you remember what do you do?.

I forgot to comment that the internal dictionary app to use with neo reader doesn't allow inflected forms. So if you have a dictionary with them it'll miss a lot of words.

Just installed Mixed Light Control from the Onyx App Store (free). It allows you to adjust the light tone to just the mix of 'cool' and 'warm' you want. Works very well.

nothing special really, just logged in using the google account that i used to purchase the apps.

Finally i get it working, it must be not frozen play store, google services, and not in power saving battery mode.
But it frozen some times play store or google services. And i lost user also one time. But now it sees my buyed apps.

Also tried mixed light control and much better than the maind adjustment control. Why they didn't use this one?.

Anyone knows a good app to make a screen capture in moonread?.

New update available (version 2018-12-03_18-16_2.0).

Nothing really new jumps out at me so far. Could be mainly bug fixes. We'll see.

I also couldn't download OTA. The update would start downloading, and then in two seconds tell me that there was an update in storage. Then it wouldn't install. The update file in storage was 3 kb! It did this several times. Finally, I checked boox.com and downloaded it from there.

I downloaded the update too, but how do I use it to upgrade? Do I just move it to the root folder?
