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 (In-reader menu > 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
