I don't understand how this should work. I tried it on the kobo glo where I already installed night mode which works ok with the button. Now I tried to adjust the nightmode.ini file but somehow it doesn't save the changes. I tried to put the following text in my ini but it is gone each time and does not work. DO I need to compile or something?

[brightness]
1percentPatch = yes # yes / no : Nickel set brightness to 2% even when on UI it is set to 1%
# this patch will force brightenss to 1% when:
# - it was set to 1%, then it was set to 0% (for instance: stand-by) then changed again to "what Nickel says is 2%"
# - it was set to 3%, then it was set to 1% then changed again to "what Nickel says is 2%"
timeout = 7 # time in seconds, after brightness is set (and maintained) to a given level, to toggle the action set to that level
## syntax for associating the trigger of an action when brightness is set to X%:
## X=<command/script>
## special actions:
## - toggleNightMode: toggle Nightmode on / off
## - enableNightMode: force enabling Nightmode
## - disableNightMode: force disabling Nightmode
3 = toggleNightMode

I thought I try it first on my kobo glo before trying it on my kobo glo HD but it does not seem to work. Is there a step by step manual how to let nightmode work on a kobo glo HD?
