![]() ![]() ![]() Sidebar Don't use fbset, it's broken as all hell (hence, well, fbdepth), and may not even be there in the first place. (I'm pretty sure I did in fact try it on an old as hell K5, and, more relevant to the original report, a PW2 on 5.9). I smell PEBCAK, because it should work on pretty much anything since the K5, no matter the FW version. But I'm not really sure what to think without more information.Įdit: (nvm, just realized you got two KVs with different FW versions, and apparently the KV and PW on older firmwares are not working, so it may be something related to the FW afterall) If you care about it, I could try to put together an alternate extension that generates some debug info that I could use to try figure out what is going on and hopefully fix it, although considering those devices are somewhat old, I suspect it may be a hardware limitation. Amazon's own reader unfortunately is all or nothing. It's hard to get any better than koreader, and seeing how powerful it is, I wouldn't be surprised if that behavior and the number of pages turns per refresh is configurable. It does that even in normal (non-night) mode. Well, koreader alleviates the issue by actually doing a flash/refresh of the screen every few (about 5 I think) page turns. Koreader wins for nighmode.ĭoesn't work for KV and PW2 firmware 5.10.3 I like that ability, but I don’t like the flashing between page turns. To install, just drop the contents of the zip file inside the extensions folder on the internal storage. The night mode setting doesn't survive a reboot.YMMV, of course, that was just my experience with the KT4 When in night mode, ghosting effects are much more pronounced you'll either have to force a screen refresh very often (by touching the status bar, then back at the center of the book) or just leave page refresh turned on all the time (Settings > Reading Options > Page Refresh), as the screen refresh clears up the ghosting.I've tested this only on my KT4, I'm not really sure how it'll behave on other models - worse case scenario, if it breaks horribly, like the screen blanks out, freezes, or doesn't seem to respond to touches, you may need to force reboot your Kindle.ones where night mode is not officially supported on the stock firmware).Īs it uses fbdepth and fbink, it requires USBNet installed. This is a little KUAL extension that leverages the method on this thread to allow a sort of fake night mode on non-Paperwhite Kindles (i.e.
