I have the SGP3.6 (am partial to a teeny device and like to read with it turned in landscape mode) and when I page turn on either Kindle or Aldiko by tapping the screen, those home, back, and menu screen-buttons (not sure what to call them) light up. Annoying! But when I use the volume buttons to turn pages, they do not.

In either Kindle or Aldiko app, I simply press the down button to advance the book and the up button to retract the book. these are the volume buttons on the player itself. I suppose it might help that I read the book in landscape orientation.

Which apps do this? Also does the Kindle book reader do TSS? I don't think so. Haven't tried yet.
I just downloaded some free ebooks from Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers...text/154606011 to the SMGP5, how cool is that? Sorry I like digital toys. I was reading a book on the little this morning. Not bad at all. By the way I still haven't adjusted to the TPU case covering the power and volume buttons. I can't feel them in the dark. |

I love reading on mine. I use the Nokia Pure Font and a grey background. Right now I am doing my 12 days of Christmas books reading for the year. The best way to find the buttons is to feel for the grip side and remember they located right above it. |

I tried the volume button to turn pages and the lights on the botton still light up every page turn. Someone said it doesn't, mine does. So I won't be turning pages that way. It makes a clicking noise too, so I will use my trusty finger to turn pages. Something weird is I find the PW doesn't respond to page turning as well as SGMP or the KFHD. Must be the extra layer on the PW glass. Another weird thing I found is Kindle App doesn't have a TSS option! What? Moon + is working fine for me now and has TSS. Does any reader read Mobi drm books? I might like to listen to TSS. I know Moon doesn't. |

Moon + has the text to speech. Go Launcher EX I downloaded on the SGP5, then I sideloaded to KFHD, no go. It shows it is installed (did it several times) but doesn't show in Apps. What is going on? I hate carousal. KFHD is kinda ticking me off lately. |

I used Go Launcher on the original Fire and loved it. I think members on Kindleboards have said the ADW launcher is working on the newest versions of Fire.
