Hard to believe, but it took me over two hours to write this little post. Last edited by knc1; 02-03-2015 at 09:21 AM. Reason: Added note of hope to 5.6.1 case. |

Setting date/time on series 5.x firmware
Manually set date/time on series 5 firmware:
Bring up home page search bar: Home -> Search Enter the command: ;st <date> <time> <optional tz> Example: Code:
;st 2015-11-03 08:04 -0500 Checking the system log for actions taken: (Home -> Search, enter: ;dm) Note: the semi-colon is part of the command. The ;dm command will create four log(book)s. The titles will include the (new) current time of the ;dm command in their titles. Note that the timezone in the title may or may not be what you passed to the ;st command. But the rest of the title will show the local date/time. Open the "all_system_logs ..." book, scroll to end of the log and then back up to find: Code:
121202:181939 kb[1544]: I kb:close:data=com.lab126.pillow,log_candidate_selected=0:hide keyboard 121202:181940 kb[1544]: I kb:draw:id=0,language=en_US,languages=en_US,lang=4,diacritical=0:redraw keyboard 121202:181940 system: I setdate:prechange:old=1354497699,new=1446563160,delta=92065461: 151103:080400 lipc-send-event[21612]: I lipc:evts:name=timeChanged, origin=com.lab126.time, fparam=92065461:Event sent 151103:080400 system: I setdate:postchange:old=1354497699,new=1446563160,delta=92065461: Translate the new timestamp (the timezone is taken from the PC this command is entered on): Code:
$ date -d @1446563160 +"%F %T %z" 2015-11-03 09:06:00 -0600 I am not quite sure how the title TZ is getting messed up in this example. The example was run on FW-5.3.4 but should apply to all series 5 firmwares. Last edited by knc1; 11-03-2015 at 10:11 AM. |

New: "My screensaver image will not display"
I got tired of looking for these links myself.
@NiLuJe: I could not find a list you had made of the sizes for each of the touchscreen devices. If you can find it, I'll add it to the new #10 |

Whispersync on Sideloaded Books
How about these for FGA?
I can't get my sideloaded books to sync between my Kindle and my mobile phone? Send a .mobi version as an email attachment (or through Calibre) to your send-to-kindle email address. OK, but now I don't have a thumbnail cover image? See this thread. OK, but it's showing as a DOC and I want it to show as an Ebook? Umm...I haven't solved this one yet.... |

I have never had to give those answers.
But your welcome to edit in the third answer when you have it. |
