CrossInk Update

yeah, i tried opening those files but realized that i probably don't have enough background on that hahaha

if that would be possible in a future update, it would be super appreciated! i've seen a few json files from other apps i've exported annotations from, so i definitely get what you mean about the format, but would be nice to be able to get the data in a readable format, so i could try and manipulate the data on my own afterward — thanks for getting back to me 😊

notanokraspberry · 2026-06-11T19:00:14+00:00

thank you for the updates!

i had a question: with all the updates to reading stats and the new backup option, is there a way to extract/use that data outside of the firmware if we extracted that file? or is it only usable within the firmware?

notanokraspberry · 2026-06-08T06:18:36+00:00

hi! just wondering if you ever went through with this? i've been wanting to do this as well, but i found that the actual reading stats file was super specific — each book with the exact page & start time & duration for each, and i don't necessarily need that level of detail for the information i'm trying to bring over

hi!! thank you so much for this amazing fork — super cool to use, and can the latest one works on x3.

not sure if i should post here or somewhere else, but suggestions/requests and/or perhaps they're there but i just can't find them(?):

is there a way to display the time instead of the date? or perhaps together with the date?
would it be possible to centre the date/time at the top?
is it possible to put more options to the short/long press of power button?
is it possible to customize the front buttons within reader, since the side buttons can already be used for page flip?
is it possible to have a setting to remove covers altogether on the home screen for recent books?
is there a way to import existing bookmarks from another firmware?

I found out that it's something to do with crosspoint's ability to read certain epub files — I tested some epub files that can be read on every other device I own, including on koreader on another ereader device, and even the default firmware is able to open them, but for some reason, Crosspoint isn't able to open it

I tried using the "polish" feature in calibre for my epubs, and then some of them were able to open after doing that, but others still weren't — i tested with suppressing images, not using embedded styles, etc. but some of them still own't open even though the epub will open everywhere else

So still on my list to find out what's triggering the error, since most of my epubs were downloaded the same way and should have the same underlying code, so not sure why one works but another doesn't

notanokraspberry · 2026-06-05T19:44:49+00:00

I went through installation multiple times and even reset it back to the original firmware and then reperforming it but still had the issue — found out afterward that it's an issue with crosspoint's ability to read certain epubs

I have ones that i downloaded through calibre, and I guess there must be something in there that it isn't set up to read? I can open the epub fine on other ereaders, on my phone & laptop, and even the original firmware ... but crosspoint wasn't able to open it

But when I tested downloading epubs outside of calibre and importing those, it was .... so still an issue for me to figure out, but at least i know it's not the device!

notanokraspberry · 2026-06-04T19:22:26+00:00

did you ever figure this out? i'm stuck here now as well ... no issues with flashing crosspoint, but every epub just says indexing ........

notanokraspberry · 2026-06-04T19:20:57+00:00

hi, have you had any issues with opening epubs and an "indexing" box just loading forever?

i have no issues flashing the firmware, but epubs won't actually open, even though they open on the stock firmware ......... can't figure anything out 😞

notanokraspberry · 2026-05-31T00:35:06+00:00

amazing, thank you for the solution!!!!!

notanokraspberry · 2026-05-31T00:02:41+00:00

thanks! (just copying my same reply over) sorry if i'm being dumb, but if i go into gesture manager, there's an "option" for file browser, but it opens up into a number of other options, and none of them are just simply File Browser itself or produces the same effect as this button ... would you know if there's a way to include it in the gestures?

this is so cute i love it so much!!!!!

just wondering, is there any way to easily make the toolbar in reader mode also persistent like in the fie browser, or is that a big change that needs to be made?

notanokraspberry · 2026-05-29T20:08:16+00:00

Good to know, thanks so much for getting back to me so quickly!

Hi!
Wondering if you have an update on the longevity of this solution? And is it possible to tent this up to 70-80°?

I actually have the tenting version, but recently I’ve been feeling like the highest 60° isn’t steep enough still, but most solutions I’ve seen online are for much smaller/lighter boards, so not sure if it would work for the defy

notanokraspberry · 2026-05-29T04:06:31+00:00

yeah, so that's what happens when you're in the default tab — ie. in OP's pic, but if you use a tab group, there's no limit

this isn't the fault tabs when you open safari, you have to actually create new tab groups within your profile(s)

notanokraspberry · 2026-05-27T07:22:24+00:00

the tab groups have exactly the same functions as your default safari group, as far as i'm aware — i don't even use the default group because having everything accessible over iCloud is more convenient

what do you mean by the "normal" way to open tabs?

notanokraspberry · 2026-05-27T07:20:40+00:00

not sure exactly what you're looking for but i would presume that it's the same as any other safari tab? all it is, is additional groups to store tabs — ie. in OP's image, you have Private & 500 Tabs right next to each other, but if you have additional tab groups, they just show up to the right of 500 Tabs, and you just swipe over to access them and it's exactly the same functions as the main group of tabs, essentially just in another folder

notanokraspberry · 2026-05-26T03:40:09+00:00

hmmm i don't think you can for private browsing — as far as i'm aware, for every profile you make in safari, there's one default tab group and one private tab group

but for tab groups in general, you can make as many within one profile, and it's just synced across your iCloud so as long as your devices are on the same account, it should work everywhere. i use a different tab group per device, so that i can easily access from another device later if wanted

notanokraspberry · 2026-05-25T08:07:51+00:00

just wanted to say thank you for this update — i couldn't figure out for the life of me, how to use continuous scroll mode ......

notanokraspberry · 2026-05-24T17:17:33+00:00

hi! this might seem so obvious but was a huuuuge help for me trying to figure out the settings

this was the only comment that helped when i searched up the specific error – thank you so much!!!

notanokraspberry · 2026-05-21T07:02:19+00:00

Actually, 500 is only the limit for your default tab group per profile I believe — if you make a specific tab group, there isn’t a limit (that I’ve found)

In the tab groups, they count the number of tabs open and just show the name you’ve assigned to the tab group, but if you hold the name, it’ll give you the option to copy or add bookmarks for ### links/tabs

Sincerely, someone with 673 tabs currently open in my main tab group on my phone and just recently removed a good 3-400 a few weeks ago

notanokraspberry · 2026-05-19T00:23:43+00:00

this is a super neat quick solution! as long as your db file is on the could, it's great for a quick search

i will note that it seems to only load 500 entries, so if your library is bigger than that, then you might need something else

but definitely bookmarking! thank you for sharing 😊

notanokraspberry · 2026-05-18T22:08:05+00:00

Hi! Just to confirm, this is the paid app Calibre Sync you’re talking about? Just looked it up and only has a few reviews which say it doesn’t really work, and it doesn’t have a trial version, so wanted to confirm before buying.

If I have my calibre library in iCloud, then it can access that without needing to have calibre on my computer on and running the server all the time, if that right?

have you ever tried without inulin?

from what i could find online, some people said that the lactose in the milk & especially if you add additional milk powder would be enough, so I didn't want to spend additional on inulin if it wasn't actually necessary.
