I'm not sure what you mean "at the home screen" Is this the Pocketbook home screen?

Do I have to installed Above Digital Editions? (I do have an Adobe ID)

How do you import the epub books into Aldiko?
No need to install ADE

1. Go to the kobo website on the computer. <-- you can do this on your IQ, make sure you use the browser and NOT the Kobo app. Just take longer and you need to know where your epubs are downloaded.

2. Download the epub onto the your computer.

3. Transfer the epub into a book directory on your SD card

4. Open up your Aldiko (version 2 b/c that supposedly handles DRM)

4a. if you can't get to Aldiko b/c you don't have market, get a copy from Scion's dropbox (post 5) here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=117162

5. Install Aldiko and run it.

6a. Press the menu button (left button at the bottom) to get to the Home Screen,

6b. Press the menu button again to get to Settings

6c. Tap Settings to get to Adobe DRM

6d. Tap Adobe DRM and enter your email and password that you signed up with Adobe Digital.

7. Tap the return button (right button to go back to the home screen) you can go to your SD card, go the epub books, tap it.

8. You have a choice of open it up or import it, I always import.

9. Your ebooks now is stored in the "ebooks" folder created by Aldiko.

If Aldiko v 2 does not work, you may have to root to change your Android verstion to at least 2.1

As stated, not sure about DRM books, but it worked fine when I imported the free books from Kobo.

Cheers
