Sync books without firmware update
I just bought a new book that I want to sync to my KT over WiFi, but I don't want it to update the firmware from 1.9.14 to 1.9.16. I'm assuming that will happen if I just hit the Sync icon. Is there a way to sync the book without the update?

If there is an epub version of your new book download that from the kobo web site and sideload it onto your kobo.

That's what I ended up doing, thanks.
Shouldn't there be a way to sync books without unwanted firmware updates? |
