When reboot, the default mode is 'Zen'

I think the default mode is 'Normal' I had have to switch the mode manual every reboot the remarable.

For rm2 Zen mode is really just the better default mode, because you can see your pen when the side-bar is hidden. There is not really another difference, if I'm not mistaken. I don't know why this is not just 'Normal' mode.

I think the Zen mode shouldn't be the default mode for RM1. Reasons:

  • RM1 users expect buttons switch pages by default (Zen mode change that).
  • Without carefully reading docs you have no clue how to disable it.
  • It's not much useful while using stylus with button (used for deleting).

It would be ideal if Zen (or other) mode can be completely disabled in settings/menu For example, I have no use for more than one mode (default), but occasionally, I accidentally switch it and have to think how to switch it back.

Note: It would be nice to have the icon of currently used pen also for other modes (especially the standard one).

I think it's resolved by 2.12.1.527 (patch 30.1.08-0). I get standard mode as the default on my RM1 after restart (even when had Zen before). 🙂

Thanks a lot! It's great this way.
