Also: if prior to the reset, I back up books and database through Calibre, can I then restore it post-reset and find everything as it was?
Thanks.
If you do a factory reset it WILL revert to the firmware the Aura ONE came with - you would then have to reinstall the newest firmware update 4.1.7729 or download it using the desktop app (depending on your location and if it has been pushed to you yet).

Using Calibre you then then resend all your books to the reader - so yes, back them up on Calibre before the reset and they will be as they were.
