Hi,

I have a Kobo Glo reader and I had the last firmware update (4.4.9344, 16.05.2017) installed this weekend.

I really liked the new look and specially the new PIN feature in this update, but I noticed that after the update the night light would not turn off when I put the device in sleep mode (the screen stayed lit with the book cover showing).

I contacted Kobo support, and they instructed me to restore and resync it. It worked. The night light did turn off again in sleep mode.

The problem reappeared, tough, after I loaded other books to the device through Calibre (I had loaded my Kobo books before with the sync). I am using Calibre 2.85.1 64bits.

I tried the "restore and sync" procedure again and it worked again, but as soon as I use Calibre to load any book, the problem reappears. I used to load the Kobo books in main memory and Calibre books in the SD card, but tried to mix them, or only use the main memory, but the problem continued.

Could you please check what could be happening?

Thanks in advance,
