That's part of the love-hate thing we see happening so often. We love it when the features that are added are something we like, when they aren't , well, we all know what happens on MR then . |

It started a little longer ago for me when I got the newest Calibre, if I'm not mistaken they have a update every friday. But I think the problems started when I got the newest kobo update not too long ago.

That was it! If you go to the Kobo plugin settings, there's an option for sending the cover, which was unchecked by default. I checked it, resent a book, and voila, cover is there in the Sleep mode! |

I did that before when I was having the similar problem before. But the problem came up again, but I'm very glad it worked for you.

And are you putting books on the SD card or main memory? FW2.5.2 has a bug where it won't display a cover in sleep if the sideloaded book is on the SD card.

Does this problem result from sideloaded kepubs to the SD card? I have epubs all sideloaded (via Calibre) to the SD card and have not experienced this problem.

I'm not running FW2.5.2 at the moment, so I can't check. But, I do know it has been fixed for the next firmware release. |

with the 'send cover' option in the plugin settings checked, I now have the covers in sleep mode for both internal and SD card books
But now I have an other problem: on the home screen I can't see the book last read, only the book before the last. I guess I removed the 'last book' tile, but I can't figure out how to restore it |

Hm, it's strange. Apparently the last book tile IS working, but that certain book I'm reading now doesn't appear on it. I can open any book and it's shown, except this one (which is BTW, a Calibre-converted KEPUB)

And the missing book is on the SD card? It is a known bug. And sideloaded kepubs on the SD card do not appear as a tile on the home screen. Kobo know about it and it will probably be fixed in the next firmware version.

And something what I already wanted to ask: are the suggestions/requests in the firmware feature request topic considered by Kobo? |
