Running Automagic on Android eBook reader ImcoV6L

[kintrupf]

Hard to believe, but Automagic seems to run quite well on my eBook reader ImcoV6L with an ancient Android 2.3 Gingerbread
I've tried the latest EAP version 1.29.0-dev.

Of course, due to the sluggish e-Ink screen editing complex flows will probably be a challenge, but I can always edit them on my phone or tablet and transfer them to the eBook reader.

However, some dialogs are not yet optimized for an e-Ink screen
Some texts are rendered "white on white" and are thus unreadable.
If you have time, would you look into it? THANKS!

Ha! I'm surprised that it works at all. Thanks for sharing!

How did you get Automagic onto this device? Does it have Google Play or is it just capable to sideload the APK of the EAP?
Unfortunately I have no way to test Automagic on such a device on my own. Does the device support some form of accessibility setting or theme setting that could positively affect the way the control elements of Android apps are displayed in general? Maybe some kind of 'High contrast mode' or something like that?

I was very much surprised myself that it worked

The device's Android is pretty much bare bones. No Google Play, so I have to sideload any APKs. Any many App won't install (or force close later) because of the ancient Android version.

The settings are pretty basic, too. No high contrast mode, accessibility settings, themes or anything like that. Many Apps that do run have the "white on white" problem with dialogs, but some have not.

But please keep it very low priority, I can always create and edit the flows on my phone.
And there isn't that much to automate on an e-Book reader, anyway

Meanwhile I've upgraded to an Energy Sistems Pro+ e-Book reader with a comparatively new Android 4.2 and Google Play support.

However, the "white on white" problem persists, all dialogs to set options for triggers, condition or actions are mostly unusable. Checkboxes, radiobuttons and normal buttons are visible, but without any text, so it's a lot of guess work to set the right options.
And the menu button in the top right corner of Automagic's main screen is not visible, but I know where it is
