Tip

You can flash stable and pre-release builds using Crossink's web companion app, Inky

This release brings compatibility to the X4 Pro. I have plans for additional features and UI updates, but for now this is a working version for those waiting for Crossink support.

I'd appreciate help verifying the following:

  • All UI components are touch-friendly on X4 Pro/Sticky devices
  • All Quick Action items launch as expected
  • X3/X4 devices do not display any touch-only related UI elements or settings

New

  • Full touch support for Xteink X4 Pro
  • New Quick Actions menu where you can set 5 shortcuts accessible via any of the shortcut buttons. Set it from Settings > Controls > Quick Actions

Changed

  • Fonts now display their installed point sizes next to their name (addresses #491)
  • The boot-up splash screen has been removed. You will now wake directly to your last screen
  • Mark as Finished and Controls have been moved to the third tab (settings gear icon) in the reader menu

Fixed

  • Flashing when accessing Wi-fi related activities (fixes #495)
  • Landscape dictionary navigation (fixes #493)
  • Enables touch on end-of-book suggestions (#496)
  • Improve loading of custom dictionary font (fixes #501)
  • XTC table of contents getting cut off (fixes #494)
  • Inaccurate clipping/highlights after font/font-size changes (fixes #492)
  • "Change Font" shortcut not working on front buttons (fixes #507)
  • Overlapping pages in XTC (fixes #485)
  • Improved table rendering for large, complicated tables (fixes #506)
  • Some data missing after lightweight network restarts (fixes #512)
  • Battery drain on Seeed Sticky (fixes #516)
  • Empty crash report after flashing due to false watchdog error

Tip

If you experience any problems, please clear your caches before opening an issue. Start with the least invasive and work your way down to the most invasive if problems persist after each step.

  1. Delete book cache (File Browser > Long-press the book > Delete book cache)
  2. From your SD card: Delete the individual .crosspoint/epub_<hash> folder for the book giving you issues
  3. Delete all reading cache (Settings > System > Files & Cache > Clear Reading Cache)
  4. From your SD card: Delete ALL .crosspoint/epub_<hash> folders and recent.json and state.json
  5. Back up your global_stats.bin and then delete the entire .crosspoint/ folder
