M96 + T68. Updates and more ... - Page 44

My battery life seems to have settled down since I put the device into flight mode - not ideal though. Also the Kindle app has stopped working with this release along with Google Play Books so a bit of a disaster all round.

How do you downgrade to a release that actually works ? Actually trying to find one in that category might be a problem :-)

you can follow the intructions on the "Move your M96 to Booxtor's firmwares and/or Unbrick and rooting" thread

Also, follow this thread for tweaking: T68 & M96 Tweaks and Enhancements

Recently I notice that is easy to speed up the system making two easy changes:

1. With SystemApp Remover uninstall Google Services and disable Google Play Store + DownloadProvider (later you can enable it again with SystemApp Remover).

2. Also, you speed up the system a lot if you buy a hi-speed SD (eg: Sony Class 10 UHS-1/U3 SDXC up to 94MB/s).

Best.

Best.

Thanks for the tips.
2. So SD card reading is faster than internal flash? wow that's news to me..

To avoid FC over your apps, it's good to reduce dalvik heap size to 128. To do so you have to replace your build.prop by mine published post above.

You can replace your build.prop by mine without installing Lightning Launcher eXtreme, it is not necessary yet.

Best.

have version 8735-4256154 on my T68, I can not access the Google Play store.

Are there a new firmware version for the T68?

blackboots · 07-28-2015, 07:57 AM

Hello all,
I am still using an old firmware version because of a scribble/menu problem that comes along with the last few updates.

Each time I open the NeoReader menu and tap on one of the icons that show up, I get stuck and cannot do anything except turning pages.
The only way to get the functionality back is by tapping on the screen, which enters the scribble mode and leaves a scribble mark on the page.
I could use another app like ezPDF, but I didn't fined one that can increase the embolden level; an option that I have to have.
Is there a way to resolve this issue or should I keep waiting and hope for a new update that will fix it?
It's a real shame because the new versions contain a lot of great new features.

P.S
A collapsible table of content will be a great improvement (:

Actually, do you think Onyx will do anything about the backlight on T68?

fozzedout · 07-28-2015, 11:30 AM

Nah, focus will be on the i86 instead now. T68 is history (too many issues).

freelancewriter · 07-28-2015, 12:32 PM

Serious? i86 is much heavier and bigger, and the software doesn't seem really much better.

I hate it when companies just keep on releasing half-baked new products and abandon old ones.

I don't think so, sadly... If I could turn down the backlight further, the T68 would have been perfect for me...
