Booklet version of Kual 2.7 does not 'pin' to the recent home screen

DoomGuy · 09-03-2018, 01:52 PM

First, thanks guys for developing Kual - brilliant job.

I have a query regarding Kual. I searched for previous posts but I couldn't find anything relevant so here goes. I have a PW3 and the device updated itself silently last week to firmware 5.9.5.1. I was able to restore the JB using the 1.15 hotfix by NiLuJe and I also installed booklet version of Kual 2.7 - everything is working again.

However, one thing I've noticed is the new booklet version of Kual doesn't 'pin' itself to the Kindle recent home screen and every time I open a new book or booklet Kual is pushed further down the 'recent' list. My Kual icon is now on the 3rd screen. I never had this problem with the older version of Kual.

Has anyone else experienced this issue or can someone suggest a fix?

Thanks

@DoomGuy: "Recent" sorting works in mysterious ways

.

Since we're now a brand-new mime-type, it's possible we get sorted behind a lot of things. I've never really looked into it, but I can mostly confirm your experience from what I've seen on my PW2.

Phew, that's great NiLuJe - for a while I thought I fooked up the restore process

No bother, I will leave it with you. It's no big deal and I can work around by filtering for 'docs' and 'recent' - I can access it faster this way.

Yeah, it's probably something of the sort, it's been a good long while since I've dared tried to understand how sorting worked, but it being sorted alongside "personal documents", behind "books" w/ an ASIN sounds fairly plausible
