I haven't been round these boards much for ages as I've been happy with my KT.

But the upgrade to 1.9.17 has me annoyed (again). Like others here I have gone from no problems, to problems, to no problems back to problems again, depending on the upgrades (remember the constant factory reset issue?).

I now have no top margins on side loaded epubs - and these are Overdrive library books so I do not run them through calibre. It definitely makes it harder to read as the top line gets shaded in low light. And I seem to have far more dead taps - on the right hand side anyway. Just annoying things that make me look at my husband's kindle touch with a little envy - he NEVER has ANY problems with his kindle.

I would have thought the margin issue would be picked up in testing as side loading epubs via ADE is so common. And it isn't just the odd one doing this, it is most of them. Bad luck for me, or not focusing on their knitting for kobo?
