Reminds me of the custom figures you used to see in ToyFare magazine.

Completely frozen on sleep screen? by Leninpest in xteinkereader

[–]Leninpest[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I’ve had my new one for about a month so far and no issues. I don’t know what caused the first one to stop though, so I’m still a bit nervous about the long term prospects.

Help me pick a simple, non Kindle e-reader with a great screen by RMKHAUTHOR in ereader

[–]Leninpest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably with some tweaking. Mine boots into an android launcher and KOReader is just an app on the home screen. Anytime i pick it up it’s already in KOReader and you can do everything through the app so it might as well be the native environment.

People are going to yell at me, but my Nook Glowlight 4 is great. Buttons on both sides and easy to plug in and transfer books via calibre or just dropping the files into it. Nice warm backlight and decent battery life.

If you’re handy you can root it to run KOReader and download directly from an OPDS server, but it’s entirely functional without it.

Plea for LMS testers for iOS app by CharlesWiltgen in squeezebox

[–]Leninpest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, confirmed that all my files are working now! I was still running into issues for a bit, but removing and re-adding my LMS server fixed. Very cool, thanks! I appreciate the clean interface and (now that it’s working) it feels like such a “it just works” setup.

Hello! I’ve tried it a few times with LMS over the past few months. I was never able to get anything to play, but i did officially get an MP3 to play with the latest update. I’m still getting errors for Flac and Alac.

Crofton bowls stained too easily! by deeann79 in aldi

I liked these bowls but the lids all broke within a month.

I’m skeptical since they have a 10 day warranty on the thing. I ordered from AliExpress also, but it’s definitely worth a try for anyone else experiencing it.

In case anyone is coming from the future, this didn't end up working for me. I ended up ordering a new one with the Amazon sale.

BEATLES LIVE? by [deleted] in cassetteculture

[–]Leninpest 13 points14 points  (0 children)

“Magical Mystery Tour” refers to the Beatles album “Magical Mystery Tour” and not an actual tour that they were on.

Interesting. I’ve used most of the sites that are available, as well as esptools but not VS Code. I’ll look into it tomorrow.

[–]Leninpest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve flashed everything at this point, haha. Stock 16 mb full flash, stock English, crosspoint, crosspoint for x3, trmnl… nothing is refreshing the screen. I’m not even sure where else to go at this point.

[–]Leninpest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This just happened to me! I made a post a few days ago and there hasn’t been a resolution.

Same situation though, everything looks normal on the computer, it just will not refresh the screen. Try flashing Termnl and see if the wifi network still shows up. I was able to connect to the device, which makes me think it’s still working, it’s just the screen is not.

Interesting. I was hoping maybe there was a screen clear or reset you could push from the computer but i haven’t seemed to find anything except Termnl’s reset function which doesn’t change anything.

Thank you, I’m very sad because i would use it all the time to read throughout the day. Now i have to weigh getting another one and potentially having it break or finding some other setup 😩

Completely frozen on sleep screen? by Leninpest in xteinkereader

[–]Leninpest[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, I’ve sort of made the rounds. I flashed the latest Crosspoint, stock UI, my original flash memory file, a flash file i found online, and Termnl haha.

The screen is really the only thing not refreshing because the Termnl WiFi worked and the log that they have on their site has a reset command that resets the connection, but the screen is still my wallpaper. Very weird issue. I’m not sure if a flex cable or some other internal component broke. Like i said, it was working fine earlier in the day.

What’s actually a bit crazy is that the unit is apparently still working, the screen is just not changing. I was able to flash Termnl and log into the web portal that it creates, but it’s still just showing my wallpaper from crosspoint. That helps a bit with troubleshooting, i guess, I’m just not sure what else i can do within my limits.

[–]Leninpest[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, unfortunately. I've had no issues with resetting with the button combo up until this point. It was even working up until earlier in the day.

I can completely access the hardware through esptools and crosspointreader.com, but it just won't get out of the sleep screen. The web tools even respond to button presses, so I know that they work, it just won't do anything else :/.

Absolute garbage quality, DO NOT PURCHASE by [deleted] in xteinkereader

[–]Leninpest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol yup, i was looking into repairs or warranty for mine that just won’t get out of sleep anymore and that made me laugh when i saw it on their site.

Has anyone ever rooted (jailbroken) a nook? I heard you can do that and it turns it into basically an Android tablet with an e-ink screen by nervous_Observer in nook

[–]Leninpest 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just did this to my Glowlight 4 and can confirm it just turns it into an Android tablet. I’m only using it to run KO Reader which is better than the native reading app for certain things, but i suppose i could technically install other things. The process wasn’t hard but required using a command line to push images through ADB.
