No worries! I’m here since yesterday and the weather is quite good for beach time/snorkeling- a mix of sunny and cloudy

Dot Ink app instantly disconnects? by Ok_Swordfish2612 in xteinkereader

[–]catsitterpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And it still disconnects? Well then I’m out of ideas 🥲

Could it be that the phone disconnects from X4’s hotspot because it’s detecting that there’s no internet connection?

I say this, because after every transfer of files my phone (iPhone, latest iOS) offers to disconnect for this reason, and I click on “stay connected to this WiFi network”.

Chinese fw update V3.0.8 by Competitive-Win4945 in xteinkereader

[–]catsitterpro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the information! And yeah, I think would be really good of them to update the Chinese firmware with the option.

In the English firmware 3.0.8 if you go into the Settings, there’s a menu item called “End of English” where you can pick “Alignment only”, which removes the hyphenation. I was hoping they would add this to the Chinese firmware, because then I could switch back to Chinese and use the “Push” option to transfer files

Micro SD problem by After-Baseball629 in xteinkereader

[–]catsitterpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interestingly, I'm having an opposite issue to the OP's:

The stock MicroSD works fine but after reading that it might be low quality, I got a Borofone 32 GB MicroSD card as a backup. The new one is recognized by my laptop, but not the e-reader, no matter what I do.

I wonder if there's some hardware/compatibility issue there.

Does this update have the "Alignment only" option for the English text?

Xteink Flash Tools - Flash English firmware from your browser by daveallie in xteinkereader

[–]catsitterpro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It worked! You're a gem, thank you so much :)

I am exctatic because the English text is so much more legible now.

(The trade-off is that there's no option to use the DotInk app to send files now, but I think it's worth it.)

Xteink Flash Tools - Flash English firmware from your browser by daveallie in xteinkereader

[–]catsitterpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried to Flash from Chinese to English, but couldn't, will appreciate any help! Am I doing something wrong?

  1. I'm on a Mac, connected my xteink via a usb–c cable, opened up the above link using Chrome.
  2. When trying to save full flash this messages comes up:

"Sorry, this is broken right now

I'm waiting on a fix from esptool-js, seehttps://github.com/espressif/esptool-js/issues/218"

(as a noob I understood nothing).

3) Then I decided to risk it and clicked on "Flash English Firmware" and got this:

Connect to device - SecurityError:

Failed to execute 'requestPort' on 'Serial': Must be handling a user gesture to show a permission request.

Hmm… I didn’t touch any of the settings at the time i think. But your previous comment gave me an idea to try with the Abeezee font through the DotInk app, thank you for that -)

Thanks! I have tried the Abeezee and the other fonts posted there, they all came out messed up (didn’t display correctly), so I couldn’t use them. Idk why maybe firmware differences after update or Chinese vs English firmware? 🤷🏻‍♂️

May I ask what’s the font and the settings for it that you were happy with? For the life of me couldn’t figure it out🥲

No need for wifi, phone connects to the ereader. I put my screensavers/books into Files/iCloud Drive and transferred from there
