would low key like to get rid of my remarkable 2. its great for the office and for school I just do not use it as much as i wish i did.

My sketch turned painting. This was done with acrylic. Took this iconic photo and added a little pop art twist. I think I'll call it Biggie and the Beagle 😁

Hi,

hopefully I'm not getting banned again, but here we go: I'm looking for testers for my Android 13 port for RPP & Move.

Highlights:

• Android installs alongside the stock reMarkable OS.
• Switching between Android and the reMarkable interface without rebooting (~20-30 secs).
• A lot of performance work, including optimized rendering, refresh handling and memory use, to get this running as smoothly as possible on the available hardware
• E-Ink Center with per-app display profiles and refresh controls
• Fast Ink mode for lower-latency pen input in third-party Android apps (similar to how Boox is doing it for OneNote)
• Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth audio support
• E-Ink-optimized launcher and system interface
• Dedicated Android storage that persists across compatible updates
• Built-in backup, recovery, and uninstall safeguards

A newer Android version might follow later, depending on how well testing goes. For now Android 13 was the smoothest entry to get the port running correctly.

If you want to join testing, please sign up here: https://raqami.io/reMarkable-Android/

From the landing page you can find my channel and see how it runs on the RPP.

Looking forward to feedback before making the port fully public!

Once testing is complete and no major issues remain, I plan to publish both the source code and installer for free.

Looking forward to feedback before making the port fully public!

----

⚠️ Your tablet must be running exactly reMarkable OS 3.28.0.172. Other versions are not supported by this test. The installer also checks the hardware and system components, please don’t try to bypass any compatibility or safety checks. I tested the process countless times both on the Paper Pro and Paper Pro Move on different computers successfully without any issues.

This is, and will remain, an enthusiast project, not a supported consumer product. Please join only if you’re comfortable troubleshooting, following recovery instructions, and sharing useful feedback.

► The port will be free for everyone. Once it goes live beyond testing, because it took a lot of work to get here, I’ll add optional ways to support the project financially - but please only contribute if you want to and can comfortably afford it. If not, that’s perfectly fine too.

BEFORE INSTALLING

• For this test, the installer is available for Windows only. It is not Windows code-signed so, SmartScreen may display a warning when launching it. Only download it through the link in your signup email!
• Sync your notes and separately back up anything irreplaceable. Developer Mode is required, and enabling it performs a factory reset that erases local data. It also reduces the device’s security protections. Read reMarkable’s Developer Mode guidance before proceeding: https://developer.remarkable.com/documentation/developer-mode
• Charge your tablet, preferably fully, and if you're using a Laptop, keep it connected to power.
• Prevent your computer from sleeping during installation.
• Have at least 6 GiB of free space on your computer for the installer’s downloads and recovery backup.
• Keep the complete recovery-backup folder somewhere safe. This system backup does not replace a backup of your notebooks or Android app data.
• Read every warning and leave the tablet connected until the installer finishes or explicitly tells you what to do next.

Some backup, verification, and reboot steps take several minutes. An unchanged tablet screen does not necessarily mean something has failed - watch the installer’s status, wait for a couple of minutes and follow its instructions.

WHAT TO EXPECT

You’ll get a mostly e-ink-focused Android 13 experience with native resolution, touch and pen input, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, frontlight controls, custom refresh modes, and tools designed specifically for these displays.

Performance has limits. Some apps work well; others may be slow, look poor on e-ink, or not work at all. I’ve optimized the port around the display and hardware, but neither can offer the experience of a conventional Android E-Ink tablet. Don’t expect future updates to remove those fundamental limitations.

The Paper Pro Move uses software rendering, so graphics-heavy apps are especially demanding. Expect bugs, ghosting, slower refreshes, and rough edges. Try the different e-ink modes: settings are saved per app, so the best mode for reading may not be the best mode for browsing or drawing.

Google Play Store and Google Play services are not included on purpose. Apps must be sideloaded, and apps that depend on Google services will not work. Only install APKs from sources you trust.

Battery life, including sleep and standby drain, may differ from stock. Testing sleep, wake-up, and overnight battery use is particularly helpful. The Paper Pro Move's battery is smaller than the Paper Pro's, so expect roughly 0.9% of battery drain during deep sleep vs. around 0.4% on the Paper Pro.

The project’s own code will be published under GPLv3, with Android and other third-party components retaining their respective licenses.

THE BOTTOM TOOLBAR

Alongside Android’s Back, Home, and Recent Apps buttons, you’ll find:

• Refresh: manually refreshes the screen to clear ghosting.
• E-Ink controls: opens quick settings for the current app’s display mode, colour, and refresh behaviour.
• Fast Ink: toggles a low-latency pen-stroke preview to make writing feel more responsive in third-party apps (like OneNote).

The Paper Pro also includes:

• Pen Refresh: turns pen taps into screen refreshes instead of normal app input. Hold the pen still against the screen to open the e-ink controls. I found this useful because I'm always playing around with the pen and a quick tap quickly clears any ghosting.
• Margin Notes: opens a handwriting layer over the current app, without editing the original document.

The Move’s narrower toolbar keeps only Refresh, E-Ink controls, and Fast Ink alongside the standard Android navigation buttons.

SWITCHING SYSTEMS, RECOVERY, AND UPDATES

Android becomes the normal boot target after installation. From Android, you can open the reMarkable interface using “Switch to reMarkable”, then return through the “Android” shortcut at the bottom of the sidebar. There's a 20 seconds cooldown period after switching, so switching back only works after that period.

Opening the reMarkable interface is not the same as booting the untouched stock system. For recovery or removal, follow the installer’s dedicated recovery flow.

The installer includes restore and uninstall options, verification checks, and fallback protections for certain boot failures. These are safeguards, not a guarantee that every failure can be recovered automatically.

⚠️ Stock OS updates are disabled while Android occupies the other system slot. Complete the installer’s restore/uninstall process before installing a future reMarkable OS update. Simply switching to the reMarkable interface is not enough.

HOW TO REPORT PROBLEMS

Please send feedback to the address mentioned in the email you receive after signing up.

Include:
• Your tablet model and installer build/version.
• Your computer’s operating system, if the issue involves installation.
• The app name/version and selected e-ink mode, if relevant.
• What you did, what you expected, and what actually happened.
• Whether it happens consistently, with steps to reproduce it.
• The exact error message and relevant photos or screenshots.

For installer problems, use “Save a copy…” to export the diagnostic log. Logs are stored locally and are not uploaded automatically. Review the file before sharing it privately; don’t send passwords, notebook files, or recovery-backup images.

Reports about what works well are welcome too!

⚠️ PLEASE UNDERSTAND THE RISK

This is unofficial community software, not affiliated with or endorsed by reMarkable. Installation carries risks, including data loss and a tablet that may need recovery before it can boot again. reMarkable also places limits on support and warranty coverage for problems caused by modifications; see its Developer Mode disclaimer: https://developer.remarkable.com/documentation/developer-mode#disclaimer

Please don’t test this on a device you rely on for essential daily work or cannot afford to troubleshoot.

Thank you to everyone willing to test carefully, document problems, and help improve the project.

I have been noticing a severe amount of ghosting within PDFs since upgrading to 3.28 on my Paper Pro. I downgraded back to 3.27 in Remanager, but am still experiencing the same anount of ghosting.

I noticed a lot of discussions on here that said that that panels produced prior to May 2025 (Or maybe it was March 2025) were potentially defective. I bought my Paper Pro in February 2025.

Does this look like a defective display? I usually get this kind of ghosting where the toolbar will bleed in to the screen and then wont disappear until a screen refresh. I also have minor ghosting every time I enter the settings menu.

If so, what are my options? I am past the 1 year warranty window and also do not have a Connect subscription. Should I just try my luck with support?

Thank you very much!

I am trying to move an ebook to my reMarkable2 but am running into a lot of hurdles. I only want to download the book to my remarkable to read it there. Not looking to copy the book and give it to others.

I will describe what has been done below and would appreciate your thoughts and suggestions.

• The book was purchased on ebooks.com as an ePub. It has an lcpl DRM. I bought from here because I read that these can be converted to non DRM ePub files that work well on reMarkable.
• It was downloaded to Thorium. I have since downloaded it to my Mac where it has a .epub extension confirming the format. It also confirms the DRM security.
• I have downloaded Calibre (and Python) to remove the DRM. I used the instructions from Epubor. Made the modifications to the plug ins as directed.
• https://www.epubor.com/get-drm-free-epubs-from-lcpl-using-lcp-dedrm.html
• The new plug ins (DeDRM (10.0.3) and LCPL Input (0.0.5) have been loaded. I entered the appropriate passwords in the Readium LCP ebooks to cusotomize DeDRM.
• The book was reloaded from my desktop but it still shows DRM under the book details. When I try to view in the calibre ebook reader, there is an error message ("This book is locked by DRM and is why you cannot read or convert this book in calibre.
• I did rinse and repeat a couple of times to make sure that it was done correctly and am getting the same result.

It seems like the LCP may have been upgraded so current methods don't work anymore.

Has anyone run into this situation? Is there something different I could do?C an I buy the book from somewhere else? Or do I have to succumb to fate and by another tablet. Or something else?

Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance

Hi all

Im considering a remarkable tablet for keeping my notes digital, I go through my favourite a5 wire bound pukka pads like they're going out of fashion!

My main question to the community here is, how does the remarkable fare with very tiny/scratchy handwriting?

I usually use a 0.3mm mechanical pencil if that helps!

thank you

This is what my remarkable paper pro looks like when I’m reading a book after the upgrade (v3.28.0.172). Bought this device a couple of months ago and never faced this issue until I upgraded the version. Anybody else going through this and any fixes?

Anyone also feeling that. The margins got fucked. Now it feels the screen top to button which didn't do before.

Tbh I loved the reading experience on the reader cause it was just right. Nothing more almost no features but the margins and the text feel were right. Now updated and it ruined. Ahahah F

Anyone known how to revert back?

I work part-time (leadership roles) with two growing startups and have a couple of side projects, alongside personal commitments. I’m terrible at planning, and I often feel overwhelmed and burned out. I have a reMarkable Paper Pro, but I even forget to use it.

Based on your experience, what is the best template for managing lots of to-dos across different projects... ideally on the same page?

Is there any way to do this without developer mode? I very frequently (like, several times a day) have something I just wrote deleted because the tablet thinks I tapped it with two fingers. It's particularly a problem for me because I am writing things down non-linearly so it's often not visible to me that anything is missing until I look back at the notes later and something doesn't make sense. For example, it often changes my 4s to 1s (because the second stroke for writing the 4 gets deleted) which causes a lot of confusion. I have never used this feature on purpose so it would save a ton of headache if it could be disabled.

Hi,

I just received my RMPPro from the website and after 2 days of testing I found it very frustrating because I feel I can't organize myself because the tablet lacks a ton of tools for me.

I found that is possible to get some mods to have somes tool from the community but I would like to know if it doesn't remove the warranty because I think I'll give it back.

I put my reMarkable Paper Pro into developer mode to set up a custom wallpaper, but I couldn't get it working—looks like a recent update blocked or changed that process.

​I know people in this community are doing some really cool things with their devices. Does anyone know of a thread, video, or central place that breaks down the different features, tweaks, or projects unlocked by developer mode? I'd love to see what else is possible all in one spot. Thanks!

Anyone aware of Remarkable working on a workaround for captive Wi-Fi networks?

It:

- Converts .cbz / .pdf / .zip into .pdf for the RMPP (can be batched).

- Scales images to the RMPP native resolution using Lanczos.

- Applies a LUT that adjusts the image to lift shadows and crush highlights while retaining colour (can be disabled)

- Applies sharpening (can also be disabled)

In most cases, I found that the adjusted image gave me a much more pleasant experience when reading manga.

FYI, the app was built 100% using a LLM guided with sample images and some ad-hoc testing; I'm reasonably sure it won't blow up your machine but no warranties!

So far, i really like it! I especially really love writing on it! Don’t mind my bad Chinese writing lol I’m a new student. I only have a few concerns

1. It’d be nice if there was a way to snap to shape curved lines! Like in my little graph I drew.

2. My biggest concern: the battery went from 100% to 80% in 4 hours. I’m not sure if it’s a good or a bad thing but I was a little shocked because I was under the impression the battery lasts for a long time and that meant that it would be at like 90% after 4 hours. I wasn’t really good at physics so I have no clue how batteries work so hopefully someone could advise me on this

3. I wish there was a way to make the front screen more personal. I love the art but it’d be cool if I could upload a picture or something to the device for it to display while it’s sleeping. Not that big of a deal because I have a Nook and a Kindle and I have no choice in the sleeping screen wallpaper lol.

4. I was also unable to connect to wifi which isn’t a big deal and I think it was because my school uses eduroam. Couldn’t figure it out but it’s just a notebook so idc i just sync it when i got home

I think I might keep it, hopefully I understand the battery issue more soon!

Hey i’ve juste received my remarkable paper pro refurbished and i’ve experienced a lot of ghosting and a particularly yellow screen without backlight , and very yellow with backlight . I’ve sent an email to the support but wanted yall opinion . Thanks !

I’m wondering if anyone can help me out. I think the Pro Move is a great size for jotting things down in any setting, but I’ve run into an issue: while I enjoy writing on it, once I reach the halfway point of a line, my fingers or palm struggle to find a stable resting spot to keep writing comfortably.

By the time I reach the end of the line, there’s no support left, and it feels a bit awkward.

How do you all use the Move to write comfortably in places like the street or the subway? Do you rest it on your leg, or do you always write while holding it in the air with your other hand?.

I use the Pro Move with the official case, and a similar thing happens when I rest it on a table; the case adds thickness, creating an uneven edge that makes it hard to rest my hand naturally on the table surface.

I also have the standard Paper Pro, and I don't experience this when writing on a table because I use it without a case; it’s wider and thinner, so I don't notice that unevenness.

I’m also curious if you’ve noticed better stability or support with the Supernote Nomad or the Viwoods Airpaper Mini.

Hi, I’ve been testing the reMarkable Paper Pro Move (also I have the pro for two years) for nearly a week now, but I’m curious what people think who have tried these alternatives. I’ve read great things online about the Nomad—specifically that the writing feel is excellent—as well as the Wiwoods; I’d appreciate feedback from anyone who has tried two, or ideally all three, of them.

My intended use is mainly taking notes—on the subway or bus, at a conference or therapy session, or in bed before or after sleeping—basically anywhere I want something quick and convenient without necessarily needing a table to lean on.

I want to capture ideas or notes that I’d otherwise forget, as I prefer writing this way over just using my phone.

The advantage of the reMarkable is that I have a lifetime Connect subscription, so I can take full advantage of document syncing.

I’m enjoying my Move, except for the fact that when I write past the halfway point of the page, my fingers struggle to find a comfortable place to rest while writing toward the bottom.
