The one bug - or at least on my Aura HD - that seems partially fixed by replacing the config 3.17 file with the 4.3 config in the 3.17 fw - a bug that really annoyed me, is as follows. With the 3.17 config file in the 3.17 build whenever I created a Collection, and then starting with Manage Collection / Add Books tried to order my large book collection by Author, that order did not come up. The only order available was 'Recent'. By adding the later config file the books now reorder appropriately even although the menu name remains 'Recent' remains.

I used Notepad to put in the new nightmode code. Actually it did work - for a while. Even so the nightmode reversed back to 'daymode' after a few pages. There was also no way to toggle it.

I do have the latest version of Calibre - but it does not work to load books with my hybrid 3.17 fw / 4.3 config file setup. As is said earlier, I can live with that temporarily. That is 'temporarily' until a more sophisticated 'toggleable' nightmode patch comes out for the 4.3.

Thanks so much for this column, you are amazing people.

Again thanks for your answer.
Any bugs/glitches/etc. do not matter when using this firmware. This firmware was pulled very quickly. Please go to the thread for 4.3.8871 and then try that and see what you get.
