hi there, great framework!
my only problem so far is, that "cover view" only shows some of the covers, and for the rest shows the standard cover, but if i touch those books long and their menu pops up, then there is the cover picture. any idea what the problem might be? cheers mate

Cover Images will show up once you activate the facebook sharing option in calibres mobi conversion dialog. Has nothing to do with facebook, but on default an optionswitch is baked into the mobi that allows you to share the last read page over several devices. Its either that one OR the coverimages/facebook option.

So just tick the box, convert, move to the KT, and a Cover will show up

HiRsch · 08-04-2012, 09:30 PM

@notimp: alright! it worked. thanks a lot ;-)

I've just tried to run KindCalc, but it was complaining about certificates, until I manually copied merged developer.keystore.
I've tried to re-enable devcert plugin and restart device without success. In the log I see devcert getting registered, gaining 1 permission and (when re-enabling it) being applied to security.b.

Abradoks · 08-05-2012, 12:15 AM

Ah, never mind. It was side effect of resetting device.

At the beggining I am thinking because when progress bar start next frame is middle progress with error 006.

This version contains a more verbose installer, and also fixes a bug in the installer itself (It would previously copy the hyphenation rules to the internal folder, where they would uselessly occupy 1MB of precious space). It also contains a working version of the "all rotations" patch.

Upgrade recommended!

Please try v2.2.1 and report what exactly is failing...

Funny, while upgrading to version 2.2.1 I can see the actions taken by the patch under the progress bar. Neverever had this before ... intentionally?

I have to shut down for today ... otherwise I will keep looking for your next patch and/or upgrade ... at least for some hours. THX

Just a very, very minor point. When the cover interface is enabled, and you press the icon to switch between the two interfaces, the 1 of xx pages counter gets moved a little from side to side (padding or margin mismatch). I dont know if you placed the switch icon, but if you did, you might want to look into that.

If it is all part of the hidden interface amazon coded, nevermind.

ixtab · 08-05-2012, 07:06 AM

All of the cover-view stuff is originally coded by Amazon, but simply deactivated. I merely patched three methods in the Home Booklet to allow setting and retrieving the view mode value, and two controller classes to return true instead of false when asked if they support cover view. You'll see that the code of the patch is pretty trivial: https://bitbucket.org/ixtab/jbpatche...ViewPatch.java
