- The battery drains way faster than my previous devices (Sony, Kobo Touch). I'd say it can go as fast as 50% a day with a few hours of reading. Not a big issue since I can charge it, but it's not what I'm used to.
- When I finish a book it acknowledges it, because it moves the book to a different shelve. However, in the "reading life"/statics screen, it always stays at "0 books finished".

Are there solutions to these issues?
These are known issues. Kobo have/are in the process of releasing an update 4.1.7729 to correct these. You can download the update via the desktop app (dependent on the country you are in and whether Kobo has pushed it to you yet) or you can choose to sideload it from here see post 1, the download link is there. Note Kobo does not support sideloading updates.

Instructions on how to install:

- Plug your ONE into your computer and mount it
- Unzip the firmware zip file
- You will see three items: 1. the KoboRoot.tgz file, 2. manifest.md5sum file and 3. the "update" folder.
- Copy all three items to the .kobo folder on your ONE
- Eject the ONE, and then unplug it

The update will happen automatically.
