Is there any recently released firmware for the Pocketbook IQ?

Yep, here:

https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=799

but only beta and DRM is still not working, but apparently they have TTS now up and running.
Fork says the final release will be in the next few days, so maybe you get it by June or July

Thank you. I will give it a try in a couple of days when I get home. What are some of the enhancements of the new firmware?

I have a ?,maybe someone can help me. I flashed the new fw, and it seems to have no problems except for the library.
When I went into library before, it had 2 shelves with icons that said favorites, and books. Now there are just 2 generic looking folders, that say pocketbook iq, and sd .
Also when I go into the folder/folders my books no longer have thumbnails.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

That is because you are in the folder mode, you need to go the shelves mode to see favourites and all books.

Press the menu button (left) and press shelves.

Cheers

I don't know off hand and haven't had a chance to play with the new firmware yet.

I can say that the sleep function seems to be fixed. My IQ has not been waking up randomly over the last 2 days.

Cheers

Is this the 2.05? Where do you download it from? I just check the pocketbook-int website and it only shows 2.03

2.0.5 has (apparently) been pulled back as stealthily as it was deployed to start with.
It may be back at some point or perhaps something else will replace it.
Nobody is talking, so...

I wonder why since it is working well for me (at least the sleep/hibernate function).

Cheers

I'm surprised too, since it works great, and I'm even happy with TTS.

Same here.
Other than the poor TTS engine and not being able to load my dicts, everything else is stable and functional. So far I've seen no reason to pull it back.
