My kobo glo hd had worked very well with nikkel. But after I installed KMS 8 and then Koreader, the battery sometime drained abnormal.

I tried to recharge and used nikkle instead of koreader, but it still happened.
Do you have any solution for this problem?
I personally had never a problem with battery life on any of my Kobos. But I read several times on this forum about unexpected battery discharging with KSM, and without KSM.
Maybe you should deactivate KSM, and see whether the battery drain in nickel gets back to normal.
You can easily temporarily deactivate KSM completely:
  • extract KoboRoot.tgz from deactivate_ksm08.zip, and copy it to .kobo
  • safely eject and disconnect your reader
  • select (KSM) "handle update files" > "install update" (do not select "install partial update").


If you want to re-activate KSM:
  • extract KoboRoot.tgz from reactivate_ksm08.zip, and copy it to .kobo
  • safely eject and disconnect your reader
