Added

  • The selection highlight has a style. Display offers Solid (the old filled black row, still the default), Brackets (corner marks around a row's own label and value) and Caret (an arrow and a rule). It applies to every menu, list, popup and tab.
  • One margin for all four sides is back. Link Top/Bottom becomes Link Margins: Off keeps Top Margin and Bottom Margin apart, Top+Bottom gives one Vertical Margin, All Sides puts a single number on every side. All Sides turns Dynamic Margins off and stops offering it, because Dynamic Margins works out a horizontal margin of its own. New devices start on All Sides at 20; existing settings and presets keep the margins and link they had, including anyone still on the old Uniform Margins switch.
  • Nine font sizes on SD families, and five more families. Every downloadable family now ships point sizes 10 through 18 instead of 12/14/16/18 (OpenDyslexic runs 8 through 16, its glyphs being larger per point). New: ChareInk, XCharter, Newsreader, LexendDeca, AnonymousPro.
  • Tables with merged cells lay out correctly. A row holding a colspan or rowspan cell flows stacked and full width, a rowspan carries down the rows beneath it, and text alignment set on the table, row, body, head, foot, column group or caption now reaches the cell text.

Fixed

  • Sleep screens no longer ghost on the X3. The panel's BUSY idle wait, dropped by the 0.26.3 stock-driver revert, is back; the timing tuning stays out.
  • No white band above the status bar on the X3. Bezel insets come from the board profile instead of the X4's measurements.
  • The Continue Reading cover no longer fills solid black once the selector moves off it, and it is marked once rather than three times.
  • The nearby peer list, the OPDS browser and the XTC chapter list follow the selection style like every other list.
  • Favoriting a wallpaper from the image viewer shows up in the file browser. The row asked the queue using its display label, and a failed open could leave a doubled slash in the path, so neither the progress file nor the queue answered.
  • Chapters ending with stray data after </html> parse again.

Note

  • Cached page layout is rebuilt on first open of each book, because table cells now place differently.

Easiest install: use the browser flasher (Chrome/Edge, USB cable). One build serves both Xteink X3 and X4.

Update from the SD card: download firmware.bin, copy it to the SD card, then on the device open Settings and choose SD Card Firmware Update.

Manual flash (esptool):

esptool.py --chip esp32c3 write_flash \
  0x0 bootloader.bin \
  0x8000 partitions.bin \
  0xE000 boot_app0.bin \
  0x10000 firmware.bin

firmware.elf is for symbolizing crash reports, not for flashing.
