I am having issues with the side loading of epubs / pdf's and content processing on the internal memory with Firmware 1.9.16. So far I have done 3 factory resets on my device the third being the most successful.
With reset 1 & 2 my Kobo Touch Model: N905 would freeze while content processing. First froze at 32% and the second froze at at 92%.
When I could access the device I was able to open a book then the device would reset.
I had issues with the Home screen showing old content then changing to the new content. Inspection of the KoboeReader.sql file showed several duplicate entries for the same book.
On the third reset I did a little more digging. I noticed that Mac OS was creating spotlight search directories on my sd card and internal memory in hidden folders like .Spotlight-V100 so I deleted those, as well as other hidden directories .Trash. I renamed some files and removed brackets such as "(" and ")".
After I made these two changes the device was able to load my content past the 92% mark. However, the processed content does not display images for may of the books processed.
Additionally, the behaviour of the device is erratic. Sometimes the screen freezes, sometimes the device will not turn back on, sometimes it will not turn off. Sometimes my carousel settings are reset, and other settings such as wifi passwords and networks, and favourites lists.
When selecting favorites at times the double click problem will rear its head and other times it will not. When it doesn't double click the favourite it will select the book but when you turn to the next screen of books and return to the aforementioned page your selections are not displayed. However, the data is saved in your favourite list and displays in the carousel.
The device seams to loose battery power very quickly. Additionally, it seams to function better while its plugged in.
Needless to say I am really looking towards the next firmware version as I really cannot use the device effectively right now.
