I've got 2 of this black 7inch 4GB 480*800 Pixels screen ebook reader A121 | eBay ebooks.
However, I did it in separate times. The first one is very nice and I use it a lot, but the second one has some problems like... Rotation only work with pdf and freeze on ebook submenu.
So I checked both firmwares. The good one has Rockchip v1.0.5 and the bad one has Rockchip v0.0.0 (?!?!)
Understanding now that this could be a firmware problem, I downloaded SX-EB700_tool from skytex.
However, the program is suppose to detect the reader via usb, wich it does; then after clicking on "switch" it's suppose to gain access to the reader system... wich it doesn't, because after I press "switch", the reader switches off the screen and the blue led stays on. I believe that this can be a driver issue.
Is there other way of getting v1.0.5 into the reader?
PS: I have windows 7 64 home
Thanx in advance |
All the instructions are near the beginning of this thread. I don't remember what version i have installed (bad mem in my head) it seems so long ago.
I have the colourful skytex version on my ereader. I did have the firmware version thats in your link, but i prefered the skytex for eye candy. I use epubs and mobi files on mine and have no interest in using pdf files.
I tried pdf, but just too messy to view.
To reset the ereader, find a needle and use it to push the reset button in the hole on back of the ereader.
I don't think you use the `switch` tab if i remember rightly. You should use the upgrade tab, and that will upgrade the img file in the `path` in the RK28 tool to the ereader. You do have the .img file to upgrade which is around 100 meg?
