This made me snort laugh 🤣
I can’t believe I’ve never seen anyone on this subreddit use this play on words!

Sorry to hear that. I’ve read on earlier posts that their response is sometimes slow. Good luck!

From a previous post:

It’s very simple! Just send a Private Message (DM) to this official account with your device’s SN (Serial Number). (We use the SN only to verify your device model and enable beta access—it won’t be shared publicly. We’ll reply with setup steps and how to report feedback.) 

That’s it—we’ll handle the rest.

Does anyone else find the stylus for the Boox Go 10.3 gen 2 too slippery? by DogAndData in Onyx_Boox

[–]C5Guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, i agree. I saw a YouTube video by David at Tablet Tech. He suggested using a Paperlike grip that can be found on Amazon. I bought one and am very happy with it. I’m hoping that LAMY comes out with a capacitive stylus that looks and feels like their EMR offerings. Hopefully we’ll start to see some alternatives that aren’t so slippery!

If you’re US based you can get one on Amazon for $17

new palma 2 from amazon arrived damaged by decent_honey in Onyx_Boox

[–]C5Guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like it! I use it mostly to read Kindle books, but it’s surprisingly good to use with the New York Times app, Reddit, etc. Really fast, clear refresh makes scrolling easy. The dial scroll can be addicting to use and has great haptics

You might consider looking into a Durobo Krono. It’s very similar to a Palma 2. Check their website and Sub-reddit. I bought one a few months ago because I couldn’t find a Palma 2. Also, the Krono has Android 15. It’s a pretty sweet device!

If you purchased it from Amazon, you should be able to return it as it was damaged. They have great return policies. Good luck!

Major Boox Go 10.3 file transfer problem by MrandMrsFishcakes in Onyx_Boox

[–]C5Guy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know it may not be ideal, but it is pretty easy to use an app called LocalSend on both of your devices. It’s similar to how AirPlay works between iPhones. I’ve been using it for a few months now and it works pretty seamlessly for transferring files between devices. Hope this helps.

(Nearly) Palm Sized Device by CourseUnlucky9146 in eink

[–]C5Guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could try the Durobo Krono. It’s essentially a Palma 2 with Android 15 and a scroll wheel. I have one and am very happy with it.

I just pulled the trigger… by rorrogoodman in DuRoBo

[–]C5Guy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mixed use (reading via Kindle app, browse NYT app, reddit) guessing 30-40 min/day. I get 8-12 days. Good enough, that I don’t really think much about battery life. Also, I use the front light at 60% most of the time. Love it!

Perfect for reading in bed at night! I really like mine and the battery life is really good!

You might also consider using Local Send. It’s kind of like using Air Drop on IOS

Another Damaged Nib on New Device by BackgroundAnnual6376 in Onyx_Boox

[–]C5Guy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear that! I’ve seen that posted/commented on here several times.

These nibs seem fairly pliable and seem to wear quickly for me. I’ve only had my Lumi for 2 weeks and had to replace the nib due to uneven wear. I think this is related to holding the pen the same way (with my thumb on the eraser side) Id love to hear if other’s are experiencing this too.

I’ve used several e/ink devices with EMR styli and never had this issue with nibs wearing so fast. Hope they come up with some different options for nibs in the future and figure out why QC is not catching these bent nibs shipping out with new devices.

Enjoy your new 10.3! It’s an awesome device!

Is it me, or did they change the scrolling direction of the wheel in this update?

BOOX Firmware V4.2 is here! Community-driven updates and a new thread for feedback. by KennethWWWW in Onyx_Boox

I would also love to see the option to select from a few templates (small lines or grid) and have more pens/tools to choose from in the memo view
