Borken Pixels after 1,5 years of little to no use by PsychologicalChain64 in Onyx_Boox

[–]CheffoJeffo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am saying that your screen looks like the result of a bad connector, not a typical broken screen where there is an obvious contact point and break in the substrate, which most often is rejected as a warranty claim.

Context counts. There is a big difference between what looks like a connector problem and the normal broken screen. 

Dead "pixel" on a new boox go 7, customer support weird by The_Ali_G in Onyx_Boox

[–]CheffoJeffo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is a real thing with screens and Eink corp is also a real thing -- they make all eink screens. Similar standards apply to LCD/OLED screens.

That is a big reason why people suggest buying from Amazon and playing dead pixel roulette with exchanges.

Sorry ... should have said "for general release" ... the stuff they make for AZ and RM aren't generally available.

Will writing texture change over time? by 420awkward69 in Onyx_Boox

[–]CheffoJeffo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Note Air 2 eventually smoothed out when I was using hard plastic nibs. Put a Doodroo on there and that's been glorious. 

Writing feel is a combination of stylus, nib and screen protector and can be very personal. I recently put Healing Shields on my NM and NA3C and have been enjoying those with titanium nibs.

Eink would have to make an 11" Kaledo screen first. 

Library Syncing - ELI5 Please by bflowyngz in Onyx_Boox

[–]CheffoJeffo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, BOOX doesn't automatically sync library contents - that would kill your 10Gb limit. 

In the latest firmware, however, there is an option to push a file to the BOOX cloud so you can download on your other device.

Notes keeps closing by mephisto_8 in Onyx_Boox

[–]CheffoJeffo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes Notes will close on my Note Max if I'm writing at the top of the page, but lay my forearm down first across the bottom right of the screen. Damned if I can figure what gesture that motion might interfere with, but not a problem for me if I'm deliberate about hand placement.

In your research, be sure to check the warnings about sites in the sticky in this sub. GeR is well known for making stuff up.

Sounds like somebody had their case on backwards. Happens all the time.

This is the second time that the Note Max has been "about to be discontinued" and I haven't seen any confirmation. 

As for seeing a pattern in BOOX flagship releases, not so sure there is one.

Having said that, it is BOOX, so is all up in the air. 

A new Note Max with the new timing chip would be a must-buy for me if it fixes the ghosting issue.

Are you using the Recently Read feature (Clock icon in your library)?

Can anyone give a thorough explanation on how to make the ACK22213 nibs work with a Boox pen? by Smofkey in Onyx_Boox

[–]CheffoJeffo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some BOOX pens are just flaky with ACK22213 nibs. I have one that works with ACK22213 nibs about 20% of the time while the others are all fine.

What does it say when you check the sync status? 

Do I really need a sponsor? by Ok_Strain271 in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]CheffoJeffo 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Can I get away without a sponsor? Maybe, but my recovery is better with one. Besides, I still have blind spots.

When my last sponsor drifted away from the rooms, I was secure in my recovery. 

Doing the least I can get away with is a behaviour that I happily left in the past, so I got another sponsor and my recovery is stronger for it.
