Except what they stated in the release notes ("A fresh new layout that puts the focus back on your current reads – with larger text and bigger book covers."), and in the blog post, and announcement email that went out.

Anyone using the new firmware can confirm that dictionaries work fine on Koreader? On the previous firmware release Koreader dictionary was broken.

- in the Books section, I change the view from list to covers. The books under the Books, Authors and Collections sections are all correctly displayed in cover view. - Following this, if I go back to the Books section and change it back from cover view to list view, the setting is changed and remembered only in the Books section, but under Authors and Collections all of the books keep showing in cover view. - Going into the Authors section, selecting one author at random and manually changing the view from cover to list works only inside that specific author's page and is forgotten as you as you go back to the main section. - Going into the Collections section, selecting one collection at random and manually changing the view from cover to list changes the setting for that collection and all other collections in the section. The setting is forgotten as soon as you switch back to any other area (the Authors and Books sections etc.) The update process seemed to be going smoothly, same for when I applied the patch. If no one else has the same behaviour I might factory reset and see if it disappears or not. Last edited by mathil; 10-14-2017 at 05:37 AM. |

This also happens on H2O и Glo HD
The authors only show in the form of covers, I can not return the list view. Replaced 'Kobo eReader.conf' with a backup, it returned. But this is not good, and not on one device. Last edited by Semwize; 10-14-2017 at 05:53 AM. |

Upgraded from 3.19.5761 on an H2O.
Upgrade was done after a factory reset and auto update. Version 4.6.9960 side loaded. Rebooted after new firmware installed. Synced to get dictionaries, rebooted again. I liked that they fixed the performance problem I was having with 4.6.9960. I liked that it only took 12 seconds to open the Collections as opposed to the 2 minutes 10 seconds it took with 3.19. I noticed that the web browser works much better, no longer having the constant flashing I get when I use it on 3.19 I did have some problems, though. When I was navigating the menus, three different times it jumped back to the homepage. I noticed that, even though I had auto sync turned off, the sync icon would occasionally be moving, and when I tapped it would say it was syncing. I also noticed that the wifi icon would be bold, as though it was in use, even when not syncing. In version 3.19 it would only turn on the wifi when I wanted to look a word up on Google or Wikipedia. It froze on me once at the beginning of a chapter and I had to reboot. I also noticed that the page turns were just a wee bit slower, probably only a fraction of a second, but definitely noticeable to me. Last edited by ElWorm; 10-14-2017 at 06:38 AM. |

Ok you are all right sorry...
Once you get the Author in Cover view, it gets stuck and I had to edit the.conf file to viewby5list() to get list view back |

Code:
LastLibraryViewType_author=viewBy5List() Using the GUI to change between 'List view' and 'Cover view' seems to work OK when viewing MyBooks. |
