Setup Screen keeps popping up (Nova Pro updated to Android 9)
Hi everyone!
I have managed to flash sucessfully Android 9 on the Nova Pro (followed the instructons put out by the Onyx Team) and received software updates sucessfully via the Onyx server.
Since than everytime when starting/booting the Nova Pro the Setup Screen pops up and asks for language selection, time configuration, etc. The same appears when the "back button" at the buttom of the screen is set as "home button" in settings and is being pressed.
When installing another launcher from the Playstore it does not happen. A factory reset and wiping the catch did not help. Stored data or configurations made in the software are not being changed or affected through the pop up of the setup screen (the Nova Pro is not resetting itself).
My conclusion is that this might be a bug within the Onyx launcher.
Does anyone else encounter similiar issues? Or does anayone has a solution or idea how to fix the issue?
Thank you very much!

Hey Gabriel
There was a firmware update and that fixed it for me.
I'm now on Build number: 2021-08-10_11-12_3.1_959a7b6
Hope it helps for you

Hi Peter
Are you also on Nova Pro?I can't find this update!! It's not shown on my "Settings" > "Firmware Update" > "Check for Update"
Where did you get it from?
I'm on 2021-05-20_12-21_3.1_f1d2ad8

Hi Peter,
how did you receive the update 2021-08-10_11-12_3.1_959a7b6 for the Nova Pro? The latest update that I received from the Onyx server was 2021-05-20_12-21_3.1_f1d2ad8. When I try to initiate an update I am receiving the statement "This is already the latest version.".
I could overcome the problem with the launcher by flashing the package again, hoewever when I reset the device the same issue appears again. So I have no final solution for the problem at this time.
Thank you

Hey T.T.
For now, I would be happy to temporarily solve the issue.
How did you get the launcher package?

I had to look it up :)
I contacted support and they send me a download link.
I found the updater and it's uploading to my googledrive.
I'll post the link in a few minutes

When you do, if you can also provide a md5sum for the file it would be great.. just to avoid any surprises if the download gets corrupted ;-)

Took a while to upload, it's 851 MB :)
The updater: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XBw3OPW_ALZvzp7PO7FAm-08bT1C_I0k/view?usp=sharing
md5 check: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qcYQO94HcwdrzHvb9R1qcDSkijxqq95j/view?usp=sharing
Never used md5 before, so I hope I did it right :)
Have fun

Hey Gabriel,
I have downloaded the update files through the google drive folder that Onyx Boox published last year and it carried out one update later over the air, I flashed the Nova Pro with the same update package again that Onyx provided to upgrade from Android 6 to Android 9, I found the link to the onyx google drive in one of the ereader blogs.

I was looking around on my nas and found a newer update.upx file. Now I'm not sure if the one in the folder I posted is the right one.
This is the newer update file in case it was just the update to android 9 before: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kHk-apDnb0tx_k-tyH8CDk63uT-1w-0W/view?usp=sharing

The first one is 2020-11-20_14-52_3.0_b320658
looks like the last one is the correct one:
2021-08-10_11-12_3.1_959a7b6Even better cause it's .upx and not .oyx
Theoretically .upx is easier to update, just copy the file NovaPro root folder and run the "Settings" > "Firmware Update" > "Check for Update" and it finds it
Doing it right now!

Hey Gabriel,
how did you manage to get the Nova Pro to recognise the 2021-08-10_11-12_3.1_959a7b6 upx-file? I have copied it into root directory, but it does not recognise it, when I am hitting "Check for updates".

Hi T.T.
Rename the file to "update.upx" (all lowercase) and check for updates again0 -
Thnak you! It worked
