Just install the firmware and I find a small bug fix, there no X ghosting when I exit with the small X button at the upper right corner.

Yeah that's probably why it wasn't released for Mark 3 devices.

My son's Touch has the same issue.

I tried a sync on my KA1 and it found nothing new since a very old version. Kobo must be holding back some of the new versions longer than usual.

What's your affiliate? (look on the device in \.kobo\affiliate.conf)

I only list some of the major ones which get updates. I can add more if you want though.

If you give me the .kobo/version file, I can add it now. I need the information inside that file to add it. Thanks in advance.

Interestingly this version hasn't been pushed to my Aura One so far. I'd rather wait until they push it.

Do you need more than 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000381?

Nope, that should be enough.

At this point, if it is bugging you, you should downgrade. 4.7.10413 is working on my N905 Touch. I only get problems after combinations of menu items that I wouldn't normally expect to do. And just now, I couldn't get it to happen at all.

Thanks. I will wait a while before deciding to downgrade :thumbsup:

Still buggy, however there might be a slight improvement.
I could select some line ends which I could not, while in other cases I had to close the sleepcover and reopen it to exit a perceptual infinite loop. The book I tried is Calibre User Manual (calibre-3.13.0) in English.


Try to select "Transfers annotations". It hangs on my KA1.


Try to select "Allows you to add multiple e-books".
8 of 10 cases I selected something different, mostly "Allows you to add multiple e-books that are"

It might be a single faulty KA1. May I ask some of you to test it as well?

I would love to use my KA1. However many times I start reading on it and (because of some bug, especially in highlighting, or in some rare occasions no reaction while turning a page) I get sad and use my kindle voyage instead.
I was just thinking about it, why do I keep hoping for three years now that kobo will ever get rid of the bugs of the text selection part of their code. Or why don't they hire some of the big names from here to help in eliminating the bugs. I agree the firmware quality is progressing, but in a very slow rate. Sad to see that a quality hardware using open formats does not get the same quality firmware for so long.

I have a KA1 too and have same behavior: very difficult highlighting, very slow response in turning pages and even no response some times, and always the problem with the mismatch on the screen when trying to select a key I have to displace selection to the left of the key.
