Yes, of course! The linked update file in first post is now the same as in my last post here (with improved stylus calibration).

Hi Booxtor, could you help me out pls?

i've got a similar problem as the thread starter, only difference: it's my M92.

The stylus just stopped working all of a sudden and I tried the following things already:

• replaced the old stylus; with of course a compatible one

• flashed the kernel with Mfgtools-Rel-11.10.19_ER_MX50_UPDATER

• reinstalled the newest Boxtor-Update (update-20131204.zip)

• unplugged the battery & reseted system

Despite all that - the stylus function is still not working at all... no sign of life.

Could it be a hardware defect?

it is really strange.

@ebOOker : try to take away the stylus from the screen for a while and retry to write. This is a known bug with the M92.

Randy, thanks for your response.
Unfortunately, it doesn't work for me -
I already tried it with a 2nd stylus and had zero success.

Be careful, you must have a compatible stylus. I know only one source, the Booxtor's shop : http://ereader-store.de/en/accessoir...nal-white.html
So, are your sure that your stylus is compatible ?

yes, i tried not with the original, but with a compatible one from Pocketbook.
I have proof that it works on the M92, because a fellow of mine has the same one. so without any doubt my device doesn't respond to any compatible stylus anymore... but I cannot explain why, everything else works as it should be....

anyone with the same problem?

Hi,

in your case the touch screen panel could be defective. If your device does not response to compatible stylus, touch screen panel must be replaced. You could send your device to our service office for examination. Please use contact page of our website to place your request.

Hi Booxtor. I have onyx n96ml. I did stylus calibration accidentally and lost the screen navigation. I cannot navigate the screen properly. When I tab the screen with stylus, another part of the screen responses so I cannot reach the calibration settings anymore. Could you please help me?

[Randy11]

Have you tried to use the buttons to move and select the calibration tools ?

I have tried but the device is n96 ml so it has no 4-way controller. That's why I cannot reach the settings.

Hi,
If you have lost your calibration the only way to fix it is to recover to factory settings.
Try following:
1. power off your device
2. hold Back button pressed and press power button. Keep pressing them until you se the boox system recovery window. Navigate using <> buttons to "wipe data/factory reset" and use power button to confirm.

After rebooting the stylus touch control must be available again

Thanks for message. I tried what you said but nothing changed. Meanwhile, every time I do ''wipe data/factory reset'' my older books came to the main screen. They cannot be removed. I think I should be erase all data from the device but I don't know how to do. Thanks again.
