release candidate 0.2-rc4
New snapshot with lot of bugfixes and several small new features.
Please try and test. I'm especially interested in performance (there was lot of bugfixes all around since 0.2-rc3 related to memory consumption). As usual: |

Does the live version now work without changing the internal file system from fat16? I am VERY reluctant to try it once again myself!

Live RC4 seems to be working OK on my BeBook.
![]() The internal file system is kept intact. My internal storage is empty. Not sure if I had any files before I tried the live OI. But I can reboot back to the original firmware. So I see no signs of harm. The PDF reader freezes consistently if I keep flipping pages or enlarging it. The clock setting dialog also freezes if I type in numbers ahead of response. Other than those issues, I love the new UI design. And especially the screen rotation that has been the main reason I keep the original firmware. Thanks big time for all your effort! ![]() Last edited by takahiro; 11-08-2009 at 11:47 PM. Reason: Misleading information |

Takahiro: I appreciate your attempt to answer my query (and respond to my concerns), but unfortunately I don't believe it to be sufficiently conclusive, as you admit you have no titles stored in your internal storage. So there's no way of knowing whether the internal storage remains Fat16. The BeBook firmware resides elsewhere and I believe would not in itself be affected by use of the live OI on the SD card. Many thanks, though.

It took a long time to boot after flashing rc4 to my hanlin v3, but after it looks as if all performance problems were solved.
Ok, it feels slightly slower when compared to 20091001 version, but that might just some leftover bias from rc3. I'll keep this version and see how it behaves while reading ![]() Thanks for all the work and this beatiful firmware. |

Ascherjim,
You are right. I stand corrected. ![]() It turned out I cannot access to the internal storage through USB anymore. The windows dialog pops up that says the device is unformatted. Whatever in the internal flash before are probably gone. Caution! The live version is not ready to roll. ![]() Quote:

Well so far so good for me. Seems faster loading books and locking/unlocking keyboard. Love that I can get rid of flies that I've deleted from the "recent files" list. No crashes or glitches.(haven't had one since using OI actually).
Many thanks for the good work. Cheers, PKFFW |

I can confirm that everything in internal storage is deleted. I had to borrow an SD card from another gadget to read anything at all. Other than that, I've found no problems.
