Unfortunately it looks like you can't separate synch and update, I've followed a couple of threads where it was discussed but I don't think there is a sure way to synch the device (for Pocket or for just reading stats) and prevent it from upgrading to the latest FW. For now I keep my Wi-Fi off, I have the famous Wi-Fi bug that drops the connection anyway so I'm waiting on Kobo to fix that first, then I'll consider upgrading my FW as long as it won't interfere with CoolReader which is my priority above all on my Aura HD.
