While perhaps a niche interest, as a consumer and producer of books with mixed hebrew/diacritic latin alphabets, I'm curious about the improvements in rendering mixed bidi text (points 17 and 20 of the Reading program list in the release notes hint at it).
Looking forward for the release for my PB631... |

Installed yesterday, seems fine so far. Things look a bit different.

Does anyone know, when can we expect updates for InkPad 3?

Bugs firmware 6.0.926
My Pocketbook Touch HD 3 has installed the update sw_20200406_U632_6.0.926_user and I am encountering some bugs. Systematically when I resume reading, the reader puts me back 3 pages. has the ignition it goes in horizontal mode and I have to do it 3 or 4 times so that it comes back in vertical mode. It’s a little difficult

- the 3 pages back jump when I open my case for further reading - when I put a bookmark on a page, I don' t see anything, so I try it several times. When I search in the bookmark menu, I see a list of all my attemps: the bookmark was put 3 pages back! - When I use TTS it doesn' t start on the page where I was reading, but also 2 or 3 pages back - The lines under the words in the TTS modus, appear only at the first 2 pages of each chapter, then they stop until the next chapter (again only for 2 pages). I can' t find the settings for the sleeping modus. With the cover this modus starts immediately when I close the case, but without a case, I don' t find the settings. I did find the choice for 'off' I think I' ll contact Pocketbook int-support for these bugs. But do I overlook the sleeping modus choice, or did they forget that in de setting options?

Hm not sure what you are looking for. I got (translated from German) under settings - power saving: as item 3 in the list: automatic screen lock (which then shows the sleep icon on screen): off / 5 minutes / 10 minutes and as item 4 auto-off: off / 10 /20 /30 / 60 minutes. |

I also found in 'Task Manager' the icon 'Lock' and I can click there as well. It goes immediately in Zzzzz sleep and I can wake up by using the On/Off button. Thanks for your help, this works well. . |

Under settings - personal settings - keys configuration you can also configure the on/off button (or other buttons) to lock the screen.

The new firmware is really buggy. I went back to version 5, even though I don't read with the built-in reader on my Touch HD 3, but I wasn't even able to sync with my InkPad 3 anymore.
Please keep reporting the bugs to the support or to Forkosigan here in the forum or on www.e-reader-forum.de. Otherwise, they won't change anything. |

PS the bookmarks seem to work well in pdf- books, but not in epubs. Maybe that' s also with your chapter problem?

How did you do that? Reset to factory settings? Or do you need a computer and know how to do this? I was so happy with my Pocketbook HD3 e-reader before these problems.
I wrote this morning to help@pocketbook-int.com. They helped me some weeks ago by installing the PB Cloud on my device within several hours. I hope that this also will be fixed soon. |

I downloaded the previous firmware and copied it to the device via my computer. Then I installed it manually by restarting the device and pressing the back and forward buttons at the same time, until the installation screen came up. After installation I did a factory reset to remove all the bugs that I had noticed.
