Surfpad 2 and micro sd card

$

I love may surfpad 2. However, it seems to be impossible to move apps from the internal storage to the sd card. Just to say it precisely: it is possible to move them... but it's not possible to use them.

When you restart the surfpad and click on the icon auf the app I get an "App nicht installiert" (app not installed)... Any idea to change this?

need PB623 can support simple Chinese TXT file

Front light on PB Touch Lux

Have recieved my Touch Lux reader yesterday and very happy with it until now. I had the Bebook Pure for a few days but as I mostly read only in the evening the missing light is very bad. So I returned the Bebook Pure.

Now I have discovered that the Touch Lux Frontlight is that bright that it disturbs my wife - even when it's a the lowest level. Is there a possibility to change the brightness level even more then the normal setting allows?

Does anyone else have the same problem and maybe has a solution?

Regards

Touch won't work on main menu... (PB Touch Lux)

$

I just got my brand new PocketBook Touch Lux, and decided to upgrade the firmware to 4.4 after I had tried it out. The update was sucessful, but when the main menu appeared, I couldn't navigate with touch any more! The menu icons is there, but the feed with current book etc. is not anymore.

It's possible to press and hold the home button to make a menu appear. From there, I can choose sleep, music, wifi, library and power. But I can't do anything else with my dear new device.

I'm 100% sure the firmware was/is the correct one, and I tried to reset, reboot and even reinstall firmware.

Is there any hope? How do I make the main menu touchable again?

Thanks!

EDIT:
Things startet to work again when I downgraded to FW 4.3. Anyone else experience problems with PB Touch Lux and FW 4.4? I want 4.4! :P

Saving looked up words in dictionary?

$

Hi there,
I am Czech and the main reason to buy e-book for me was the quickness of looking up English words while reading English written book. However, I can not memorize their meaning just by looking them up and so I would like to save all words I look up into some .txt file.

Paperwhite 2 comes with pretty much the same feature I am looking for.

My question is - Is here some easy solution to do this, or do I have to program this functionality by myself? And in the second case, where should I start to get into the programming for pocketbook?

Have a nice rest of the day,
Lucause

Hallo,

mein neues PocketBook Color Lux hängt und ist ohne Reaktion, nachdem ich eine große PDF-Datei (27,5 MB mit 674 Seiten) draufkopiert habe. Habe auch schon länger auf die Power-Taste gedrückt, aber das Gerät bleibt an und lässt sich nicht mehr ausschalten.

Habe auch schon versucht, das Gerät mit dem USB-Kabel an den PC anzuschließen, aber jetzt wird es auch nicht mehr erkannt.

Was kann ich tun?

PocketBook 623 Touch Lux - frozen

$

I have PocketBook 623 Touch Lux and it is frozen... I can turn it on and see menu, but i can do nothing. List of latest actions is empty, LED is on through all the time - i suppose that some process is working in background. I can connect device to PC, choose between synchronize data and battery loading, and see all files on SD card and internal storage ( i removed all books and audio files ). I downloaded firmware 4.4, copied into internal storage and successfully (manually) updated (i don't know what version there was before update) - but after that reader is still frozen after turning on. What else can I do, except sending back to guarantee repair? I bought reader yesterday as a christmas gift, everything worked nice. He froze after second or third PC connect, when i was saving books through Calibri.

Does anybody know how to import CA certificate to PocketBook Touch Lux 623?

I need to set up WiFi connection to WPA2 Enterprise. To do this I have to specify the CA certificate. When I select it in the Settings -> WiFi menu, it says: Nothing to select.

I have tried to copy certificate in formats PEM, CER, DER, P7B to root folder, but it did not work. What do I have to do to make my awesome machine accept file as CA certificate?

Thanks for any reply.

So, it just took me about 2-3 hours to simply charge my device with USB to the bare minimum that allows my e-Reader to work. I am pretty sure that this isn't the way it is supposed to be.
How do I fix this issue?

Dictionaries

Last week I bought a Pocketbook Touch Lux, mainly for studying purposes. I plan on reading books in Finnish, but I found out there are no dictionaries specifically for Pocketbook in Finnish-Finnish or Finnish-English. I saw some old topics, but I was hoping that someone still had something lying around, as I have no idea how to convert the files. I read something about needing files such as 'morphenes.txt' for the goal language.

Dutch-Dutch or Dutch-English would be appreciated as well!

:thanks:

Bad support from pocketbook

After firmware upgrade to version

sw_20131113_623_W_daily_us_syncV2_rr_s2pb_bookstor e_br_4.4_246_user

the touchscreen doesn't works.

The support help response this:

To solve the problem, we recommend you formatting the internal memory of the device.


But I can't fix the problem. I have send the device (15 days without my device). I haven't received the shipment money.

Today I have received the device, the touchscreen works again, but there is a new problem now.

The problem it's with the lux. There is an annoying effect in the frame of the device (this effect don't occurs before).

Now I have to send again the device, other 15 days without it, an another shipment cost. ???

I think this is my last Pocketbook. I'm very happy with my old PB603, the new PB623 likes me, but the support it's bad :angry:

Hello Everybody,

I have a Kobo Mini, and I'm very interested in trying a PB 624 but screen resolution is lower than the Kobo Mini.

If i could make my own ereader, it would be this PB 624 but with a better resolution and maybe light, everything else suits me on this ereader. Does it already exists? Should I wait? What is your opinion on this PB 624?

Hallo,
I have problem with my PocketBook Pro 912. It cannot remember the last read page. But it is a bit more compicated. Imagine I start to read a new book, I read it till eg. page 20. Then I turn off the reader. Then I turn on again (all OK), I read till eg page 50 an then I turn off again. After another turn on, the last book anf last read page is opened, but the reader is processing something for some 20 seconds and then recently if blinks and opens the page 20 - the last read page when the book was firstly opened. It is crazy, I don't know whato to do wiith it. Any help?

I have the 2.1.2 firmware. Should I upgrade, or reinstal the firmware? Or anything else?

Thank you.

2 questions re. PB Touch Lux

$

I love my new pocketbook (Touch Lux 623). Thank you for the recommendation, Kacir.
I love all the stuff it does, so versatile, customisable etc.
My questions are:
1. What is the best way to organise my books on the PB?
I find the PB pretty intuitive to use but I have not yet found the ideal way to organise my books. I quite like the way that I have organised my books on my Kindle (into genres) but I can't see how to create a new file for a new genre and give it the name I want. I also can't see how to shuffle my books around and put them in the file I want. It is disappointing that the manual doesn't help with this. Must I do this by connecting the PB to the PC?
2. Is there any advantage in setting up an account with a book supplier on the device? So far I am still buying my books mostly from Amazon but I have not set up any account on the device. I just sideload the books using Calibre.
I would appreciate any help on either of these issues.

Hello everybody,

I'm french, so excuse me for my "poor" english.

I bought a Touch Lux 623 and the bookstore initialized was Cultura, a french books seller.
I upgraded the firmware with the last version from official site, v4.4-481.
Now, the bookstore is Bookland and I don't know how to configure again the previous bookstore.

I'm looking for somebody who know how to do that. If you have any idea, thanks to answer.

Charging Problem? Mini 515

Hi there,

i got me a pocketook mini.
No in the manual is written for charging turned off it shows the "charging bar" which will dissapear after being fully loaded.

My Pocketbook turns it self automaticly on and i can "use" it while charging.
when i'm going into the battery usage menue, ther percentage of the battery raises. so its obviously loading though.

That seems odd to me. Is this a known ug or is my device defective?
I noticed aswell a quite fast battery drainage...

Can some one of you give me a tip or has a clue about my issue?
