weird issue with new FBreader
So I installed the FB reader in the other thread as specified in number 1. I didn't really feel like I needed to keep the old one so I just replaced it. Poof, it's gone. I hadn't changed the extensions config at this point.
FBReader launched but I'm having a really hard time being convienced that this is the new version. I didn't play with the original one too long but the only preferences I can get to are very basic ones when pressing the square button and selecting settings. I have only one page of settings there, and I don't see anything about the cool features like wrist flip, etc. I decided to then install the extensions config file and rename the fbreader I had to fbreader180 since I was lazy. I was also too lazy to take out the original "fbreader" in that list. When I went to open a book with the fbreader180 (the only reader I have) I get: "Cannot start program" Ok...I have a file called fbreader180.app in bin so I don't know what's going on. But here's what's even WEIRDER. If I select the normal "fbreader.app" entry in open with, that old seeming version of FBreader launches!! If this is based on name something weird is going on since I don't have any fbreader.app anymore. Could this be a firmware thing? I have 15.4 on my device which I can't find anywhere online. Also in my manual, the instructions for a hard reset don't work (holding down the right and left buttons?). I'd like to try resetting and leave the old fbreader around this time. Edit: I tried to install CoolReader as well and I get the same "Cannot start" even though the right things are in the config file and the app file is in bin.

Nevermind, solved it with the help of this thread:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=133779 I needed to use the other version of the file. That happened to be the case with CoolReader too |
