Glo HD last update

nicopilami · 06-10-2020, 05:59 PM

Hi
I just sync my device yesterday (I did not do it for a while...). I was obviously happy to see an update coming, which installed without any error, making then appear a bottom bar with page number, menus changing of design, and so on... much more modern than what I had previously... however, now 3 tries on 4 I cannot push the "adjust fonts" icon (it is considered just like I clicked on the icon just on left or right of the one I want... and when I finally succeed, I cannot change the alignment of the text, nor line spacings : I can push the button, however nothing happens. It's like the update I had does not concerns the GLO HD.

I already rebooted a few times, nothing changes...

Did you have this issue also ?
Thanks for any advice or help.

Nico

I solved my issue myself by a quick & dirty solution : rollback

Curious I updated a few days ago on my GloHD, and all is well. What version are you on? I'm on 4.21.15015 listed as 5/13/20

Thanks,
Cal.

This sounds more like a hardware related problem than software. As you describe the issue it appears that the touchscreen is not properly registering your touches.

Give your screen a clean and in particular the side and top edges to dislodge any dirt that is interfering with the infra-red sources and detectors located in the scrren edges.
