The Firmware page lists this firmware as not available for Glo HD. Is this still true? Has anyone tested it already on a GloHD?
Thanks |

When I encounter those I just use Sigil's "Split at cursor" functionality to split at the chapter breaks. For some reason I'm not too fond of the Calibre's EPUB -> EPUB conversion.

So, all! Is this version to be avoided or embraced by a VERY basic KA1 user?

I would certainly avoid it if you read sideloaded epub files, (or library loan files.). There's nothing especially harmful about the update, just a cosmetic annoyance. But if it's easy for you to avoid it, save yourself some unpleasantness and wait for it to be fixed properly.

Is the workaround to just tap the screen and refresh the menu area, or is it a patch you speak of to fix the annoyance? |

This will have to be done every time you open a new book or reboot your device. No pleasant. And you do not write about it)

I supplied a workaround for a problem. I made no claims about how "pleasant" it was. Just gave people an alternative if they want to use this firmware. That's all. Whether they do, is up to them. But, someone with a Clara HD, probably should be. And personally, this is such a tiny thing to do, I just read past the top of the screen and do it without interrupting my reading. Or I don't bother because it isn't really that bad. * In case you don't recognise it, that was sarcasm. |

Does anyone know of an affiliate that has received the update? I'm not getting anything for my H2O when I sync.

Oh nevermind. I see this update isn't for the original H2O.
