EFB keeps resetting to full brightness

[Johan217]

Sounds like this could be related? Yesterday I also had the EFB go full bright and then all black. However after clicking randomly it came back on. Most of the time however it just goes to full bright every few minutes (on PF as well as FO side).

Same here, full brightness than black.

I have the same problem. Flying Bae 146-100. Can get it to come back on once, then it goes off and stays off. I don't have Simbrief or Navigraph. Version 0.2.2a is installed. The problem started after the latest MSFS update.

Apologies for the belated reply. This isn't something I have been able to replicate on my end on my flights today so could I kindly ask anyone who is experiencing this issue to contact Just Flight support via the following link and provide as many details as possible, and if possible steps to reproduce: https://www.justflight.com/support

If we can find a common theme from everyone's reports then there is a high likelihood that we can implement a fix if necessary.

I also noticed an issue with the EFB recently. During boarding it is not possible to hide the EFB. And this remains untill airborne (almost cruising level). Then the EFB gets extremely lighted (like the sun is shining on it). But from that moment, i can hide the EFB and show it again. And everything works normal till the end of the flight.

Support ticket created.
Just want to add here that I have a Radeon FX5700 graphics card using the latest drivers. No visual or rendering mods installed.

Thank you all for sending the reports to Just Flight support. Our support team is still working on gathering data at the moment to try and get an idea of what may have caused this to occur. Once we have found the cause of this we will work on delivering a fix.

This has just happened to me on departure from EICK.

I have a problem with the TABLET, it turns off and won't turn on again, sometimes the brightness goes to the extreme and when I click on "PITCH" a few times it disappears with the mouse and I can no longer use the game, having to use alt + f4 and start the game again on (MS2020).

Hi all.

Are any of you using the PC version of the 146 downloaded from our website (rather than the Marketplace version)? If so, can you try downloading this file: DOWNLOAD HERE

Paste/move that WASM file into the '\justflight-aircraft-146\SimObjects\Airplanes\JF_146_100\panel' package folder, overwrite the existing file when prompted, and then see if the same issue occurs with the EFB tablet.

Thanks,
Martyn

my version is MRKET PLACE

@Martyn This updated WASM file seems to work for me. Thanks

[Martyn]

@Huibrecht Thanks for confirming. We'll release a small update shortly.

Unless I am doing something wrong music isn't playing on boarding. Boarding set to 5 min, cabin announcements and auto cabin crew are both on. Am I missing anything?

[Johan217]

So far the fix seems to work for me, too. Thanks!

[JG]

It's working for me too. Thank you!

The v2.3 (0.2.3) has just been released for our customers and should fix the EFB issues. That will be available on other stores, including the MSFS Marketplace, sometime in the next few days.
