Onyx Boox C67 ML (Carta)

The first difference I see is that there is now an icon at the bottom of the home page that allows you to access the brightness control for the frontlight. Before this, you had to open the notifications drop-down window and do it that way. There are a few new menu items here and there. I haven't had a chance to explore them yet.

As for Neo Reader: when I had a Boox before, I preferred Onyx Reader and didn't care much for Neo, so I didn't use Neo very much. But I have been exploring Neo now and am liking what I see. It has many more customization options than Onyx Reader does. I haven't tried it with a pdf yet, but ePubs look fine on it. It needs a few more font options, but it may well become my go-to reader.

It should be possible, in theory, using the Kitchen tools in the Android reader threads, to make a system.img of this ROM and then install it on the Boyue T62+. I have a Mac with Windows 8.1 running on a VM. Some of the tools work on my Windows, and some do not. I also own a T62+. When I have a little time, I may play around with it and see if enough of the tools work for me to let me do this.

That would be so great !!! All the tools work on my PC, so if you need my help please let me know. The only trouble could be with the light, as happened with the CM67ML Pearl FW, but thanks to FOV's tip we should be able to get this problem solved...

I'm not an expert at these things, but I'll see what I can do. It helps that I have a soft spot for angels!

HI
Mahjong or Carta experts in the Chinese language
On the first screenshot interesting first process
On the second after pressing some buttons offering two actions
I think enable or disable
But this is risky







P.S.

On the first screen program which included com.onyx.anroid.productiontest process

Thank you for your first impressions on the C67ML with Carta display. I was wondering if the 1.2GhZ processor feels any faster than the older C67ML? Also are there any other sellers than banggood? Would love to be able to get it in Europe. How fast is it reading PDFs with the Neoreader?

Thank you for your help

The CPU is most likely exactly the same as in C67ML and regardless of what they write on the web page or box (I saw 1.2GHz and 1GHz) it is 912MHz fixed speed.

Yes, this is correct. Aside from the Carta display, the hardware is identical (as far as I can tell) to the Pearl version of the C67ML. Onyx has been tweaking the firmware (the latest for both being 1.7.2), and each tweak seems to improve some facet of the user experience. I don't usually read PDFs on my C67, so I can't tell you about that. However, Neo Reader in 1.7.2 seems to have improved performance.

Hi,
Found an interesting topic about the increase memory for user applications
Message #345

http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showt...#entry38310480

0x00200000@0x00080000(userdata) -was 1Gb

0x00400000@0x00080000(userdata) - became 2Gb

Correspondingly reduced memory on an inner SD Card

This is for Boyue but perhaps this method is suitable for Carta?!

Any news regarding increasing of flash space for user apps?
I'm really happy with this reader, but can't install some important apps from GPlay "Insufficient space...". All installed apps have been moved to SD (where that was allowed). Firmware 1.7.0

Hi, I have some question.

How can you make screenshots with ONYX BOOX C67ML? Does any app work to do screenshots pressing any key combination?

Thanks

Hi all,
I have the C67ML but recently it's been freezing up. At first it started in the middle of reading but now also when starting up. It may have been my fault applying the wrong firmware, but now I'm back to V1.7.4_rc1. It always needs a hard reset cycle + power jolt to get it working again. Annoying because I don't always have a cable and power outlet + charger near...

I'll try to install the new V1.7.5_rc1 first, that's just been posted.
But in case it keeps happening, could anyone tell me how to try to fix it? Maybe a scan for corrupt memory or complete firmware reinstallation (through adb maybe?). I prefer to keep it unrooted but I'm ready to try all sorts of things.

thanks!

PS. Can anyone also tell how to check whether I have the C67ML or C67ML Carta?
