I have the Pocketbook Era Color Model PB700K3 with Software Version U700k3.6.10.2359. I downloaded the files and followed the instructions of this post. However, when I say yes to jailbreak, nothing happens. I don't know if the problem is that my device is new with the newest update, so I was wondering if there was a way to jailbreak it or if the programmers haven't jailbroken the newest version still. Thank you for your time! ]]> PocketBook bobmarleyah https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373901 <![CDATA[Bug: "Go to link or style" not working]]> https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373900&goto=newpost Tue, 09 Jun 2026 11:48:17 GMT I have run into an extremely strange bug (i think) where the F3 shortcut that is supposed takes you to a style doesn't actually work. And I have been struggling to replicate it except in this single instance...

In the attached file, if you go to line 28, place the cursor in the class ("vale") and hit F3, it fails to find it in the stylesheet (it just goes to the top of the stylesheet). The styling from that class is reflected in the html correctly (as far as I can tell), but it just can't find it via the F3 lookup.

EDIT: I think I may be narrowing down replication...: There are several embedded fonts. If I delete them from the stylesheet, the F3 shorcut sort of works. It jumps to the closing bracket of the class (rather than the title).

I've also noticed that F3 on the other classes will jump to the correct class, but not to the beginning of the code. For example if i F3 "calibre1", it will jump to the "calibre1" class in the stylesheet, but it'll place the cursor between the "e" and the "1" rather than at the beginning of the class in the stylesheet.

EDIT2: I've tried changing the "vale" class name (e.g. "bye", "hello") to no improved effect. However I just tried to do it on a longer class name "valeasdfasdf", and it worked the same as it would had i deleted the fonts from the stylesheet (i.e. it jumps to the closing bracket).

EDIT3: Sorry, forgot to mention, this is in Sigil 2.8.0

A Calibre GUI plugin that adds a text layer to scanned PDFs (direct OCR processing / "in-place OCR" based on OCRmyPDF),
including an optional proofreading function (not yet implemented).

Version History:
----------------
Version 1.0.0 – May 31, 2026
- Initial release.

Installation:
-------------
1. Install OCRmyPDF and its dependencies (Tesseract, Ghostscript, etc.) according to the OCRmyPDF documentation at:
https://ocrmypdf.readthedocs.io/en/l...roduction.html. Additional training files for German and German Fraktur script are provided by the University of Mannheim: https://github.com/UB-Mannheim/tesseract/wiki
2. Install the plugin as usual. No configuration is currently required.
3. Select a suitable menu for the plugin in the Calibre settings.

Usage:
------
- In most cases, the default settings are sufficient.
- Detailed information can be found in the OCRmyPDF documentation.
- Language information for Tesseract is derived from the book metadata; the default is English.
- If the text in the PDF image is not correctly aligned (e.g., rotated by 90 degrees), check the "rotate" box.
- For books in German Fraktur script, check the "fraktur" box.
- The proofreading step has not yet been implemented (coming in version 2).

I've upgraded my Kobo Clara BW to version 5 and noticed the ssh stopped working, then I downgraded it again latest 4 version but it was too new version and ssh wasn't working either so I downgraded it again to some lower version 4, and that one was too early and ssh wasn't working, so I used the interface to upgrade hoping to get a good 4 version. After that my kobo is bricked.

It keeps restarting, the user interface is frozen and after several seconds it restarts loads again and is frozen again. When I connect the usb cable to my computer when it restarts it will start the interface with the connect popup window but the interface is still frozen so I cannot click the connect button and. upload some upgrade/downgrade to try another version.

Can someone please help me, I'm really sad I bricked my kobo :(

Thank you in advance. ]]> Kobo Reader odrzutowiec https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373897 Version 3.3. sent to AppStore (OPDS update, Calibre sync update) https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373896&goto=newpost Tue, 09 Jun 2026 10:18:11 GMT ■ New features
- Connect to OPDS catalogs that require a login, not just public ones. When you add a catalog that needs an account, justRead now notices, asks for your username and password on a dedicated sign-in screen, and remembers them for that catalog. Covers and book downloads then load using your account, so private and members-only libraries work just like public ones such as Project Gutenberg. Your sign-in is saved per catalog and only ever sent to that catalog's own address.

■ Improvements
- Calibre books marked "Changed" now tell you why: the books sheet spells out what differs between your device and the server, so you know what a sync will actually do.
- "How to add books" gained a section on keeping your library in sync across multiple devices, with practical tips for a smooth multi-device setup.

■ Fixes
- Fixed the highlight note editor being the wrong width in landscape. It now matches the size of the other reader sheets, so writing a note in landscape feels consistent.
- Calibre synced books no longer show a false "Changed" flag right after you send them to your device. justRead now keeps its record of each book's last-modified date in step with Calibre, so freshly sent books stay marked as in sync.

■ Accessibility
- Clearer VoiceOver labels and hints throughout the OPDS catalog and Calibre screens, including the new sign-in flow.

■ Localization
- All new OPDS sign-in and library text translated across all supported languages. ]]> justRead.app petrjahoda https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373896 Clara HD Author name truncated if separator https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373895&goto=newpost Tue, 09 Jun 2026 10:00:31 GMT Hello,
On a Kobo Clara HD. if I enter the author as "last name, first name" in Calibre, it is displayed truncated on the e-reader (only "last name")
Do you know of a way to correct this behavior ?

I'm thinking of adding support to change read status for example.
I'd also love to hear how it works on lower powered e-ink devices. Let me know if it is too slow.
Please let me know if languages are a problem.

While I still have access to my books, I've lost a very important functionality. Namely, I can't sync Note/Highlights/Reading Progress as previously.

Searching MobiRead didn't reveal any way to accomplish such synchronization using Calibre, or any other way that I could see. I probably missed something obvious.

I use both of my Kindle DEVICES as well as Kindle Reader on my phone and tablet. I'm guessing that there is not a local file common to both devices and software readers that might be manually transferred between devices when an annotation is added on one which needs to be available on the other?

Other synchronization ideas appreciated. Amazon could have allowed continued functionality for synchronization and still have prevented new downloads. ]]> Amazon Kindle RMOP https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373891 Startup KOReader into a specific plugin interface https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373890&goto=newpost Mon, 08 Jun 2026 16:25:13 GMT Hi there,

I'm using the Rakuyomi plugin as a Manga reader and library, and it has a nice cover view, etc etc. My goal is to startup KOReader right into the plugin. It doesn't have the option to do this built in, and generally I have to do search, page 2, Rakuyomi to start it each time.

How do I setup KOReader to automatically launch into the Rakuyomi plugin? I don't use KOReader for anything else and just want to jump right in when I switch from Nickel (reading). It doesn't really work like a 'home' folder per se, it's more like an alternate interface/library.

Thanks in advance for any advice. ]]> KOReader mgrimace https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373890 Hello https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=373889&goto=newpost Mon, 08 Jun 2026 14:48:38 GMT Hello team, Very happy to join that forum, i hope to find and share if i can some good knowledge :) Have a nice day all :) Oxo Hello team,
