KOReader crash loop after latest update

[Uncle Robin]

I checked for an update about 15 minutes ago, and the install seemed to go fine except that after the install was complete, the "bomb" appeared on screen and just kept looping until the deviuce eventually rebooted back into Nickle. I've attached the crash log in the hope that it might help

Is it a nightly build or a stable build?

You'll need to fix it manually (overwritting files via usb) either with the last release or the next nightly since the fix hits master

Happy to do a manual overwtire - what do I download and which files do I overwtire?

Just reinstall the stable, only the nightlies are affected .

Thanks, that was very easy.

Alternatively, not handling the device like a southpaw would have spared you the bug ;p.

(It was tied to rotation handling ^^).

Will be fixed in tomorrow's (well, today now :s) nightly, FWIW.

Ah, that is not an option. My left hand is the only one that works, my right is largely ornamental 😊

That certainly explains it .

Snark aside, thanks for the logs, seeing the rotation in there definitely helped . (And happy to know you can manage the UI mostly one-handed, as that's a concern I'm moderately invested in, as my mother is one-handed (birth defect), so I'm familiar with "unexpected" grips on devices ).

In my experience, KOReader is much more friendly for 1-handed operation than Nickel - gestures are a BIG part of that. The occasional bruise from being at the bleeding edge my way of giving back
