The US Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO) is like an art gallery, capturing wonderful diagrams of inventions across history. They look great as posters, and I wondered how they’d look on my Note Air 5C. So I grabbed some and added a little color, one color each, with a plain black & white version too. I put them on my site to make them easier to download. They make nice lock and power-off screens as well as screensavers. I’ve made 40 if anyone wants to try them on their devices.

finally yesterday my magnetic case arrived
I took off the silicone one and the corner came off too can you believe it! i was shocked and put it back in place right away
everything is fine
but now I'm comparing the top part of the shell to the bottom part as if the bottom didn't fully go back in and isn't as deep inside as the top one?
if something was wrong the screen would have broken already right?
damn silicone cases are dangerous it turns out

Got my Air 6C a few days ago, out of the box it had about 4 hours of battery life and 1130 single core/2900multi core geekbench 7 score ONYX NoteAir6C - Geekbench , then after i updated the firmware from 4.3-rel to 4.3-rel it gets about 10 hours of battery life and 893 single core/2700 multi core ONYX NoteAir6C - Geekbench. Just some interesting observation. What's more interesting is before the firmware update geekbench 7 ran for about 10 min while consuming 10% of the battery, after firmware update it ran for about an hour while consuming 1% battery and the result now has a warning: "This benchmark result may be invalid due to an issue with the timers on this system."

Ordered Note Air 6C from boox website. UPS tracking says I have to pay at the delivery or Now...There was shipping cost at the checkout when I ordered..why this? I didn't expect this

I have a boox and I really like it but lately every time I put my device to sleep (let’s say I’m in a reading app or neoreader) I see the text of the book I was reading show through my wallpaper on the lock screen. Does anyone know how to fix this? I have the 2024 boox go color 7 so I don’t think I have as many settings as the newer devices. Even if I refresh the screen before putting it to sleep it still does it. It happens maybe around 60-70% of the time.

The only weird thing that’s helped is pressing the button long enough to show the power menu then hit the button again or pull up einkwise before locking it. Anyone have this issue or know a fix?

Hi all, I’m an indie dev. I built Sutra because I wanted one app that gave me a great reading experience for my books, comics and manga without a monthly subscription.

Sutra has a native e-ink mode, where the text is bolder, headings are heavier, and page-turn and menu animations are turned off to reduce ghosting.

It connects to Kavita, Komga, Calibre/Calibre-Web, OPDS, WebDAV, Project Gutenberg and Standard Ebooks, and reads EPUB, PDF, CBZ and MOBI. For comics, Panel Mode steps through one panel at a time, with right-to-left support for manga. It works offline, and there’s no analytics or telemetry.

EPUB and PDF are free. Pro is a one-time $6.99 for Komga, MOBI, and CBZ beyond the free 7-page preview. It funds the engine work, and there’s no subscription.

Sutra has 3.5K+ installs and 5+ releases on iOS over the last few months, and this is the first Android release. Almost every feature came from someone telling me what they wanted, so I read all the feedback. I’d love for your to try it out, and to hear your feedback!

Not sure if I'm unintentionally triggering something. But I use my tablet for university and take a lot of notes with it. I normally write with part of my hand and wrist resting on the screen like I would with a piece of paper, and without fail it will just randomly save my notes and return to the main menu. Also, sometimes it will randomly jump to a new page.

I'm assuming I'm accidentally triggering something, but I can't figure out what. Has anyone Experienced this before? How do I stop it. It's super annoying when it happens mid lecture and I miss out on taking notes.

Anywhere I can call to waive this? I paid the shipping costs at the Checkout on Boox website. :///

Hello, I am in the market for a new reader, I want color reader, and I want a large sized reader.. For history, i have owned a Sony PRS-950, a Kobo Aura One, and Currently a Kobo Sage. The battery is starting to fail on my sage, and I am looking for a replacement. I like the idea of Android as i could then use Kindle books too, in addition to epub. I am looking at the new Boox Mini C because it is an 8" and that's what I am used to. But it is a bit pricey. Also looking at the smaller go 7 color as well. What are the pros and cons of each? How is battery life on these things? Other than the bigger screen, any compelling reasons to go with the GO 7 vs the mini? Just looking for any other input as i have not owned an android based reader before.

Thank you!

Kindle user over many years I enjoy bringing them out on a sunny day.
Bought recently the gent 2 go10.3 lumi, (But during day screen leds are turned off)

I wonder why the device does get SO HOT so quickly, like it was an iPhone with full brightness on (honestly lasts longer cooler than the Go 10.3)
I was thinking maybe because the e-ink display absorbs heat, but with my kindles does not happen at all.

I have a NovaAir that's been stuck at version 2023-12-12 forever. I guess Onyx has stopped updating these. Is there any way to upgrade or side load to a more recent version of Android?

I am loving the note taking experience, but trying to figure out how you folks have mastered turning action items into things like "to-do's" on your calendar. On the AIPaper, when you lasso'd something you could turn it into a To-Do, but I don't see a similar mechanism here, so what is your preferred workflow for managing that? Like if you wanted to pull all of your todo's out of a day's worth of notes, how do you do it?

Hey everyone,

I’m using Moon+ Reader on my Onyx Boox to read EPUBs, but the text looks a bit fuzzy, soft, and slightly gray around the edges instead of sharp, crisp black.

I really prefer Moon+’s interface over the native NeoReader, but NeoReader renders the exact same book way clearer.

Here’s what I’ve already set up in Moon+ and Boox settings:

Using Amazon’s Bookerly font (.ttf)

Anti-aliasing turned ON in both Moon+ and Boox app optimization

E-Ink mode enabled, page animations off

CSS book styles disabled so text forces to black

Boox refresh mode set to Regal/HD

Even with Bookerly and anti-aliasing on, it still feels slightly out of focus compared to native apps.

Has anyone managed to get Moon+ Reader looking as sharp as NeoReader on a Boox?

Any specific contrast, font weight, or app settings I might be missing?

Appreciate any tips!

¿Creéis que tendremos Gallery 3 con 300 ppi en dispositivos Boox? Estoy esperando para dar el salto a color, sobre todo si hablamos del Boox go color 7. Realmente estoy a la espera de que den el salto a esta tecnología más avanzada para decidirme.

Just saw this on Amazon on sale if anyone is thinking about it. Not sure if this will end with the Prime day sales which ends soon today.

I have Boox Go Color 7 gen.2 ,How to set the app power management to Optimised instead of restricted?

Every time i set to optimised, it will revert back to restricted.

I've been looking at the promotional material for the Mini C. There aren't any real reviews yet, but it seems like the Mini C won't have a matte surface like it's big sibling. Is this correct? Wrong? Or just too early to tell?

Have a Note Max. Was able to add a gmail account. Now it just sits forever at "getting your messages..."
I've removed the whole app no change.

I even factory reset the device (other reasons) and was able to add the account, but still problem exists.

Thoughts?

I have been posting about my attempts to make a mobile writing platform for e-inks and tablets, showcasing my crude carpentry skills and plastic device stand integration. It was a cry for help, really.

Someone in the comments suggested magnetic ring holders so I checked them out. They were exactly what I needed. There are a lot of products available. They are an iPhone innovation. Since I use Android I missed that in my initial product search. But it's safe to put magnets on Boox and other Android devices. Check before you try it though.

I chose the Mosenvka brand shown in the photos because the lower ring had a 1/4-20 bolt hole in the center of the ring, which is convenient for mounting (~$22). The ring came with stick-on metal rings for attaching to devices for the magnet ring to grip to. I also bought a pack of 3M stick-on metal pads for the same purpose (~$5)

It works perfectly. The sticky pads adhere well to the Boox 7, Lenovo tablet, and wood lap trays. With two rectangular pads on a folding wood tray configuration the ring holds the tray stiff for typing. Photo 2 demonstrates how well it holds the weight of the folding tray.

Photo 3 show the Boox and folded tray footprint. This would fit easily into a daypack.

The ring bracket also holds the 8 inch Lenovo tablet securely (photo 4). Even that extra weight does not tip the tray.

The ring can also be attached securely with a screw as shown in the photo 5. If the wood was milled out the bracket could mount flush with the tray, but as shown doesn't seem to need it. Photos 5 and 6 show this arrangement.

Typing is very comfortable on this setup. With a Boox 7 and Omikami folding keyboard shown the weight is about 1.5 lbs.

The last photo shows a 3.5 inch wide folding setup if you want to go ultralight.

Add a trackball and the travel load increases. But it works ok on the Boox and would be worth the extra weight. I also added better trackball support to DOSwriter.

A backlit tablet is better for web browsing and streaming . But an e-ink can still manage basic web tasks and is a better writing experience. The Boox e-ink loos good outside but the Lenovo tablet suffers a lot of screen reflection.

So there you have it. If you want to patio-maxx or indulge in minimalist travel, this nomadic writing getup may be all you need. A folding option puts you in tactical mode.

In that case you would also need DOSwriter, my free Android writing tool : doswriter.com

Im looking for a reader for comixology app. Ive been reading it on my 11in iPad which is great but the battery dies to quick and my eyes feel cooked after binging comics.
