Share your thoughts on the new firmware V2.1.1

Dear, thank you for your kind suggestion. We have forwarded this to our relative colleagues and it will be fixed in the next firmware.

Hello Claire,

so you confirm that there is now way to export sidenotes as a single PDF from eBooks like *.AZW or *.MOBI?
I think this functionality should be added.

I have another question as well: Where are the sidenotes stored until I export them? I would like to constantly backup them by a file sync app, but I cannot find them.

Is there an estimate as to when 2.1.1 (or.2) will be available again? I just got back to the US and unpacked my preordered Note Pro, which was waiting for me. I have been trying to update to 2.1.1 but struggling to download, until I found this post. This is very sad news because I really wanted to update my new device and start using it with the new firmware. Can you please let us know when it will be back up?

V2.1.1: When viewing epub in two-page mode, the direction is not remembered between closing and reopening the book.

What I should do if I have upgraded to 2.1.1, I mean will firmware 2.1.1 with fixed bugs be available for me?

When I changed from Max 2 to Max 2 pro, I was dismayed to know that Note files cannot be retrieved in the Note app because they had been converted into PDF files. It would be wonderful if there is any way to get them back in the Note app.
Hello, you could learn more about copying notes from one device to another from this thread. And you could still edit the notes in another device.
I use Google Drive which automatically synchronize and back up any new modifications of my files in my computer. It would be wonderful if you find a way for the Google Drive to automatically back up note files and annotation files in the Max.
You could go to “Notes-Settings-Option Settings-Account sync and backup” to sync notes to your Dropbox account.
It would also be good if you could update the program so that even if I reset the device to the factory setting I could still be able to see all underlines I had made. Last time, after the factory reset, all my annotation files still existed but the Neo Reader app could not retrieve them.
Please note that this will delete the personal data (such as reading history, applications, some personal setting) but won’t delete those files in storage.

Yes, you could update to the newest one later.

We have checked several books in Epub format, all of them work well. Could you kindly try another one?

We are sorry to inform you that we could not provide an estimated date to you now. And we will keep you updated.

You could export sidenotes as a single doc by going to the menu button-TOC-sidenotes-export button.

It will be under Storage\Note.

Could you please try to refresh the screen with the “A2” button on the status bar first? If that still exists, please submit this on Feedback.

Does anyone have the 2.1.1 firmware for Note Pro downloaded already and can share with me via a google drive link? I find it ridiculous that Boox releases a firmware and then pulls it down off their website. I will deal with a few small bugs while I wait for the next update. There are plenty of people using 2.1.1 without issue.

Nice update. Made my Poke Pro very efficient. I’m not sure about the ‘Traditional’ option in the Neoreader. What does it do?

Please add a way to disable hyphenation. It will add much speed to our reading I believe. Only justifying alignment is enough for most cases. An option to disable hyphenation will be much appreciated.

Bump

@claire:

I followed your advice to update my Note Lite by changing the language to Chinese first, and after updating returning it to English.

I noticed I now have the new ‘Navigation Ball’ feature, which suggests I now do have 2.1.1.
But the version info says 2.1, and not 2.1.1 (see above)
So it seems the update was not a complete success.

Can I trust that the next firmware will fix these problems, and that it will be available in English without the need to resort to circuitous procedures?

I did, same effect. Maybe i did not make clear what i mean:

  • Open Ebook
  • Open Menu
  • Choose Format from the bottom
  • Choose Format Tab
  • Choose Side-by-Side Format
  • In the Same Menu choose a different Direction (better translation would probably orientation) - that will rotate the book 180 degrees.

This is what i mean by not preserving direction: When i close the Book and later open it again, the rotation is always the same instead of keeping the 180 degree rotation.

Note, fw 2.1.1.
I have issues with my old scribbles in some pdf’s (not at all).
All scribbles in the TOC look like that:

Waiting doesn’t avail.
And when I try to click at one (or select ones) app just closes.
When I create new scribble, it doesn’t appear in the TOC, but if I reopen PDF, scribble disappears (old scribbles I can see

)

Will fw 2.1.2. solve this issues?

Hello, sorry about that problem. Please submit this on Feedback via Settings/Feedback and our relative colleagues will reply back as soon as possible.
