KOReader is my weapon of choice on my Boox Nova 3. This article does a good job of explaining the sins of Onyx Boox, but unfortunately there isn't much competition in the Android e-ink space and this was the best hardware I could get.
- sydd 5y agoSame. I just made a new Google account for it, I'm afraid to give my real details. But AFAIK its bootloader is unlocked, so one can root it and remove the chinese spyware/viruses
- dont__panic 5y agoWhile losing the e-ink screen optimizations and drivers that handle refreshes/OS control over those refreshes. It would be really awesome to see Lineage, Graphene, or Calyx support Boox devices in the future. But I wonder if the drivers are proprietary and not reasonably reverse-engineerable.
