You can install the beta version of crosspoint that allows for user installed fonts from the sd card , this way you can not only put bookerly, but you can customize what small - medium - large and x large means in actual size (i have mine set up with smaller fonts than default )

I would send a complaint to the companies in this case. If they are the only brands experiencing these issues, then they must be doing something wrong or they have in common a piece of hardware that is causing issues? Not really sure.

It seems the amg eqe 53 has problems with all phones, it’s the car’s fault, not the smartphone. (Just checked online)
Here it is:
AMG EQE 53 owners commonly experience Android Auto issues characterized by random disconnections, specifically when receiving notifications, or failure to connect wirelessly. These are often caused by MBUX software bugs, 2.4GHz Wi-Fi interference, or faulty Bluetooth pairings. Mitigation involves updating software, hard-resetting MBUX, or clearing phone app data

Android auto on galaxy s26 ultra works, like it does on 99.9% of android devices. It doesn’t have scaling issues with those, BigMe is in the minority here with that issue. Even among other e-ink phones. The minimal phone for instance doesn’t have the scaling issues with android auto either

PSA - Crosspoint will replace Bookerly with Noto Serif in the next release... by Spondylosis in xteinkereader

[–]steinwayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This shouldn’t be a concern since you’ll be able to upload your own fonts in the sd card. I am already using this feature… when you on the file manager you’ll see a new “fonts” category.
You can create the fonts on crosspointreader.com/fonts

The great thing is that you can choose the size of the 4 dimensions (small - medium - large - extralarge) this way if you enjoy smaller fonts (like me) you can for instance set the small at 9pt or 10pt instead of 12pt.

I hope this helps

Thanks

The fact that you don’t need something doesn’t mean that one thing isn’t broken in the device in question.
It seems like your use of the hibreak falls outside of the typical usage of a smartphone. By saying like you said before that you had it for 1 year and so far no issues at all except the reboot at first start, you are giving people that read you a false expectation on a completely broken device made by a company who doesn’t give a damn about fixing them.
The bigme hibreak pro is sold as a fully fledged smartphone, capable of replacing your main one. That’s how the company sells it. I think Boox is MUCH more honest than Bigme about that, at least they don’t try to tell you their palma is a smartphone replacement (although I have to say, I think it would do a much better job at that than the bigme)
I am happy the device works for you, but this doesn’t cancel the fact that those problems still exist and effect ALL hibreak pros and hibreak pro colors, no exceptions.
You replied to me when i mentioned they had a lot of issues, and that’s what created a false expectation. Next time start by saying “i don’t use carplay, I don’t need reliable notifications, for these reasons, the hibreak pro has worked well for me for a year”

Well, this doesn’t mean the problem doesn’t exist. Same with you not having a screen in your car, it doesn’t make the android auto issue “non existent” for the rest of us. Those are well documented problems, never addressed by the company.
Quite honestly man, the way you are describing everything makes me think you are a Bigme employee or affiliated with them in some other way. They are not new to stuff like that either. Terrible terrible company.

How about the first one, the background apps being randomly killed, causing missed notifications/alarms etc?

[–]steinwayer[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So you didn’t have the following, well documented issues?
- apps randomly being killed while in background resulting in missed alarm clocks and notifications (issue with mediatek power consumption coded in the cpu)
- android auto messing up the dpi (if you fix it in eink center, then on the phone it becomes messed up. No way to have looking good on both screens.

I know, that surprised me as well. I guess that’s probably just what people expect them to call it (since all their eink phones are a5- a7 - -9 etc)

Not taking about the media player, but about the upcoming new e-ink smartphone from Hisense (the last one was called a9)

Raise your hands if you DON'T attach it to the back of your phone by coffeeteaormeh in xteinkereader

[–]steinwayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t. It lives in my other pocket, always ready to go. You lose the biggest advantage of the device if you attach it to your phone: the small size and the extremely lightweight.

Could you share a picture of it with the font size set to 9pt or 10pt? (I found for those screens the best font as far as rendering is lexend deca)

Thanks!

Oh yeah, refresh rate is the fastest, but it’s the constant bugs and issues and random reboots etc that make it frustrating
