That's fantastic.

I'll try it later.

There is something that bothers me though... am I the only one that needs to tap two times on the Exit button of launcher in order to return to nickel... ?

Actually one is enough. But I can't make nickel redraw screen at exit from KoboLauncher. The second tap (it can be in any place of the screen) make nickel redraw screen

For now I don't see solution. But the autostart is good choice.

Four hours now, and no freezes. Sergey, you are a genius!

thorindwarf. When you tap the exit button of launcher, it returns to nickel but the screen does not refresh, another tap anywhere on the screen will refresh at least part of it, and you will see the nickel home.

I get an "Autostart -> on failed!" message, running kobo fw 3.0.0

Autostart is not implemented for 3.0.0 and 2.10.0 yet. Kobo produces it's software to fast for me

I don't need it, just letting you know.

Hello as I've lost my PRS-T2 I'm on the market for a new device and the Kobo devices seem really interesting but I've a question how to install CoolReader and the other goodies in KoboLauncher?

It seems that the device doesn't need Jailbreak/Rooting... they are open or I'm misunderstanding? If Jailbreak is needed it is an easy process or an impossible one as in the Sony devices (well for Sony cause as they did all the things to block it!)?
I cannot find an how to in this forum...

Thanks!

No Jailbreak is needed for Kobo devices

CoolReader and the other goodies are already available in KoboLauncher, you just need to install KoboLauncher.

Exactly, no jailbreak is required. There's many people advocating for an open reader and they don't realize it exists already. At least on current models kobo software will install every custom upgrade file without checking signatures, etc.

I asked this because it seemed strange to me!
An open e-reader? Fantastic

Well that strange is to be surprised for a thing should our right as in a way or another all this devices
are Linux based

1. 2. 6. 23 when？

sergeyvl12 · 11-25-2013, 09:58 AM

1.2.6.23

Minor build. The main thing is you can change the buttons size (icon buttons) and scrollbar size in cr3.ini. Many people concerned that scroll bar and buttons are too small. Now you can assign any size you want

The next version (24) will be gestures support.

sergeyvl12 · 11-27-2013, 08:35 AM

1.2.6.24

At last, swipes support is added to CR main window and dialogs (TOC, Open file, Recent books)

thorindwarf · 11-27-2013, 09:19 AM

Dirty install over the previous (23) version. Configured the "left to right" and "right to left" to Back and Forward but it doesn't change the page. Only does a full screen refresh and stays on the same page.

No, use "Page up" and "Page down".

Forward and Back have another purpose
