I'm still running Android 6.1 on it. Installing the 8.1 update sounds like a hassle, and I can't find any benefit in doing it. If it ain't broke, after all...

Thanks.

Now you're just embarrassing yourself.

Does the new firmware allow you to have the chapter information on the bottom? No.

How do I know that? Because I looked.

I'm sorry... what forced you to jump to the conclusion that I didn't look around in the update. My complaint began with a very specific change. How would I know that I couldn't put it back the way it...

Boy, Do I Hate My Kobo

I bought a Kobo Aura One when they first came out. I admit, it's great to read on. But they really just keep finding new ways to make the firmware worse with every new "update". I installed the...

Aura One Not Downloading Pocket Articles

I haven't saved anything to Pocket for quite a while, so I can't say how long it's been like this. I'm running the latest firmware on both my Aura One and Glo HD. I added an article to Pocket...
