Is it like this?

The Artatech version is the version sold by http://onyx-boox.com, and also by Amazon.

Yes, it is correct.

And according to the description on their website it could be the Artatech version. They mention Lynx somewhere and they mention the Ivona tts.

Yes, but SweetPea says that there is no Polish store (and possibly no Ivona, but she hasn't checked), and thus it would NOT be the Artatech version.

In later version we will add a message how to use this tool, after click on selective zoom..

I reset calibrate and in OnyxReader "Selection" in Zoom works, but only It's cropped the width of the page, the Headers and Footers in the pdf are displayed. I want to hide numbers of pages and headers in the pdf, is it posible??
In the NeoReader what happens is that when I click in "Selection" nothing happens, the margins for cropping are not displayed, is as if I had not pressed nothing, simply the menu disappears. Which may be the problem???

Thank you!!

@ Booxtor

is there anyway to reset my M96 to the manufacturer setting. after i installed your update package i have no response from the stylus. i can access the books using the small joystick and the buttons on m96. but the stylus does not work at all. I am wondering if my M96 has problem.

your help is highly appreciated.

regards

Hi to all, today i have my new T68 and after three hours of playing i have updated it.

I have three little problems

1) When i'm viewing a image i can go to the next image or after with the keyboard (before the update i was cappable of doing it) This is for reading manga ( i have tried another time after a reset and now works ¿?¿?¿? ) but sometimes the image don't view i have to return to the file navigator an reopen the gallery (aplication to view images)

2) I don't know if i can hide the status bar of the android in the gallery aplication (are you using another aplication) i prefer a full-screen to view the images, to don't lose any pixels

3)i'm trying to use the vncviewer to see my home computer (i'm using fedora 20) anybody have succesfull conected and see a terminal ¿?

Many thanks in advance and sorry for my english.

Thank you. Two months ago, I bought from china online shop. Now I updated 1.5 ver.

I think, some improvements are needed while using the T68.

1. T68 is the minimum brightness is too bright. Should be adjusted to a lower brightness?

2. Touch-sensitive is incorrect.
Can you fix it? Plz~

3. I am Korean. some applications require the Korean locale settings. Can you add Korean locale on framework-res.apk ?

Solution 2. If you rooted, you can hide status bar with full!screen app.

The version of the T68 sold on Amazon.com is sold by Ara Tech and is the Lynx version.

The box says "international onyx" (or something like that) and is all in Chinese (I think...)

How are you supposed to put update.zip in your root folder if / is read only?

[talizh]

I really hope that the native reading apps (Onyx Reader and Neo Onyx Reader) on the T68 are quickly updated so that they can merge the annotations with a PDF file like was possible on the I62HD and M92. It is a giant step backwards, otherwise. The T68 is a great device but I already find myself going back to my older Onyx machines to get serious work done because it is useless having a bunch of highlights and notes that cannot be transferred to my computer.

Of course there are other PDF reader apps that can be installed. Even Moon Reader has the ability to highlight PDF files and these annotations can be seen after transferring the PDF to the computer, but none of these other apps are customized for the e-ink screen as nicely as the Onyx apps. They often appear washed out or have serious ghosting issues. These are not deal-breaking problems by any means (I find RepliGo Reader with reflow is readable in most cases but the page turn buttons do not work and there is still ghosting to deal with) but the crispness of the text in the Onyx apps is so much better...yet a better reading experience is balanced by the fact that I cannot export my highlights. So it is either read on apps that were not designed for e-ink but can merge annotations with a PDF or read on apps designed for e-ink but lack this basic PDF functionality. For people who are thinking about using this device as a serious academic/study device this could be an issue.

That said, it is a lovely little device but can be a bit frustrating for someone who was accustomed to the PDF merge function on the older software.

I mean accessible root folder. Upper level in your file manager.

I echo this concerns 100%. And I know Arta-Tech guys are also reading this board - take this under serious consideration in the next updates, please!
