When you click the little gear in the upper left corner, what happens? It should see a dictionary. Select it and save. If you still have problems, make sure the dictionary is in stardict .dict format and in folder /Sdcard/Dict, go to Android Settings, Apps, select dictionary and clear cache. Then try again.

I’m sorry you’re having so much trouble. It’s usually very straight forward.

3-sorry if i have so much trouble , but it's out of my control

I have my (Likebook Plus) on (V1.0.2-20180102015) I have never updated it before. I am not sure how to update it to V2.0 without bricking it, since I have noticed a warning on the update page. Could anyone explain step by step how could I get v2.0 on my ebook without bricking it ?

Thanks

OK. Then I assume you need the app on your Likebook, a cable and some software on the PC. I have often used vnc over wifi to an android tablet. Worked fine. But I never tried using an e-ink device. I doubt it would be pleasant. SSH (text console) over wifi might be OK.

In this thread there are full instructions as well as links to step by step guides for some parts of the procedure. And others have successfully followed these instructions. If you are not comfortable using these instructions, then you can stay on your current version without any serious problems. There is no NEED to upgrade. Any upgrade means a danger of bricking your device. I doubt anyone is willing to guarantee that an upgrade will be safe. You have to decide, on your own, if the upgrade is worth it and if you are capable of following the available instructions.

You may find a friend that is comfortable with flashing ROMs to Android phones that is willing to help you. It might cost you a home cooked dinner or a beer or two.

I’m running on a newer v2 firmware. I’m not quite sure which are official betas coming from Boyue and which are “optimized” versions from or for Chinese users. It’s hard for my translator to make sense of all the chatter on the Yunyaokz forum boards. At any rate, there is some reduced functionality for English users of the built in ebook reader so if that’s your thing, the Minor UI enhancements might not be worth it to you at this point. I plan on switching back eventually. If Boyue ever does release an official update, I’ll consider going for it again.

Looks like has been a newer firmware version available for a while: http://bbs.boyue.com/archiver/?tid-36.html
I haven't tried it since my likebook works pretty much perfect since the previous version but maybe someone else could use this. You need to have version 1 installed before upgrading, otherwise it won't work.

Was hoping there would be an upgrade to android 6 but doesn't look like it.

It might not be an official upgrade since my ereader says there's no upgrading available.

Edit: that firmware is there since August, it's not new

I should have been more precise, I meant newer than the latest version on this forum The guy who posted it is a moderator on the Boyue forums, he says it's official. I didn't get Ota upgrades for any of the posted versions fwiw.
