Obviously they wanted to make the text less pixelated, smoother and more readable, but in the process it became more pale 
Until this is fixed you can try to sideload KOreader, it has a lot more options, several font sizes and you can also change the contrast.
Tell that to the person who invented fast aging 
I still don’t have the update, but am in no rush at all.
I actually wanted to know more about the fixed bugs and if the update introduces new ones (as was with the previous one).
Interestingly enough, this time around I haven’t seen much (or any) complaints about newly introduced bugs…
Yes I know, I’ve sideloaded KOreader, but don’t like it. Letters are too small, menus to complicated and it’s not really possible to easily scroll through your ebooks. I like the simplicity of the stock ereader, it’s just this grey/ pale text… I hope they can fix this, then the reader is perfectly fine. Especially now with the possibility to read in horizontal mode.
There is a much longer list of fixes in the release text of the actual update on the Kompakt, you will see when it arrives. I just don’t spend much time on testing all of them. But accessibility settings are back, so apps like KillApps now work again.
when you do get the update do you have the means to make a patched boot.img for root?
For those who haven’t seen it yet:
Ok I noticed 2 things that seem weird.
Are these bugs ?
no update here yet and i imagine that i cant have volte
Yep I can do that!
i dont have it either
I’m experiencing the same issue with version 1.3.0. If you’re encountering the same problem with version 1.4.0, it seems the Mudita team hasn’t addressed it. I find it very strange since several other bugs have been fixed and features added to the app. Doesn’t the Mudita team notice that the letters turn gray when scrolling through the pages in the app? (Ping @urszula)
have you tried with any other accessibility settings apps? Keymapper would be another test app you can try. I enabled it back when the settings worked prior to 1.2.0 and have been using it ever since. Since I am still on 1.2.0 (and the settings are broken), I have E-Ink Screen Saver app requesting accessibility each time I launch, but no way to grant them due to the the bug present on my current OS version.
It’s hard to believe that half of the video is dedicated to showing the SMS app improvements, but I am glad they are finally here! Excited to see the next video of updates! This is shaping up to be quite an amazing tool!
Can you upload a photo of what you are seeing?
I just tried the E-Ink Screen Saver, and it behaves even worse. First it asks for several permissions, and once I granted accesibility, it gets stuck in that loop so if I want to go back and change app settings, it keeps asking me to grant permission. If I accept, nothing happens, and if I decline, it keeps asking me for permission. And the shortcut (same as with KillApps) just sits there on the front screen, but if I touch it, nothing happens, I can only move it around.
So to me it looks like the accessibility settings AND the default apps list are buggy. I’m hoping that @gezimos will add a better default apps shortcut to InkOS, because I used to have a lot more options in 1.3.0 when I searched for default apps in the developer options than I have now with 1.4.0.
I’m curious about this addition:
“The PAN (Personal Area Network) Bluetooth protocol has been activated.”
What will this allow the phone to do that it couldn’t before?
any news on staged updates since the first batch?
I don’t remember the updates taking this long to populate on my phone in the past.
Do I need to update in the Mudita center?
No. But you can check on the Kompakt in the control center at the top under “Software updates”. If there is no note there, the update isn’t there yet.
