New major Upgrade for Cybook Odyssey available
Hi Readers,
Bookeen anounce, that the new Firmware for all older Cybooks is available for download (via Wifi). http://blog.bookeen.com/cybook-odyss...now-available/ "This update is compatible with all models of the Cybook Odyssey range (Odyssey (2011,2012) Odyssey 2013 edition, HD FrontLight (2012), Frontlight (2013)." I just tried to update my Frontlight HD (bought in Germany) via Wifi, but it did not work - After Updating an error message comes (Error # -11). Hope, you have better luck! UPDATE Currently the firmware is not available for Thalia users. The reason is the firmware installed on non Thalia users is different (cloud option). Our teams are currently working on the update for Thalia users and it will be released by first quarter of 2015. UPDATE 4. 22. 2015 the new Firmware is now available for Users with a THALIA-Branded Bookeen-Reader too! (via WiFi). IMPORTANT: Please keep in Mind, that your Battery is full charged, and there is enought free Memory on the Bookeen ;-) Last edited by Tosch; 04-22-2015 at 06:43 AM. |

Very good upgrade. My Odyssey was... almost done. I couldn't use it because it froze every 3 seconds if I stopped touching any buttons or the screen, I had to connect the wifi all the time so I could read without tiring my fingers...
Now it's solved, great upgrade. I don't like that the folder view is not automatic, though... But well, at least, it works perfectly now... |

hi guys, does anyone have or can find the offline .bin file? I used to have a normal odyssey but then I followed this link and my odyssey became "Thalia".
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...0&postcount=42 of course I cannot downgrade, so I am stuck with that firmware which is buggy. If someone can find the offline file, it would be great! Thank you! |

That was the first thing I checked. unfortunately they offer only the 5.2 firmware (build 1780) which is lower than the crappy one I used so I cannot downgrade...
I just thought that maybe someone could manage to download it or knows where to download it and give me a hint. Thanks for your answer |

If you start your Odyssey in "Service Mode" (do a complete powerdown (i.e. not sleep mode), keep left and right button pressed, and start it, keep left+right pressed until the splash screen appear with "Service Mode") And then in the service menu, in the "Device Info" entry, what does it display? (especially the Software Version) (you can navitage in the service menu, by using the touchscreen or the left/right to select the entry, and home to validate) Last edited by Godzil; 01-18-2015 at 01:13 PM. |

Yes
I reported the error to Bookeen, and got the message that I'm Thalia user, and the update was not available to me. Shortly thereafter, the blog has been updated with a corresponding message. See also my request in Bookeen blog. Here my Device informations: Hardware revision: 3 Software Version: 5. 2. 1780 Unfortunately, still no Upate for Thalia user. Does anyone have an email address from Thalia support? [Edit: I just wrote a request for the update at info@thalia.de] Regards Tosch (a.K. Tom Badil) Last edited by Tosch; 01-22-2015 at 05:30 AM. |

Thanks Godzil.
Here is the answer of Thalia (translation). "We are currently reviewing still deploy the update for our customers. This process is currently not yet been completed. Deployment" "deploy the update" for me means that it is uncertain whether there is an update. Let's hope for the best. |
