Hey,
I tried to install nightMode on my glo, but all I get is unreadable, inverted colors, pages with very blurry text.
I have a glo with latest firmware, I installed the .tgz from
https://github.com/gtalusan/kobo-nightmode.
I powered off my glo, copied the install .tgz in .kobo, safely ejected the kobo and waited for reboot.
I can toggle the night mode with the light button, but it's just unreadable. I tried to adjust the refreshScreenPages in the .ini file, but no luck.
I used to get it working with older firmwares and the build13 version of the night mode but I can't get it to work anymore.
I guess I am missing something obvious but I can't figure what.
The .ini present in the device after install is this one :
Code:
# config file for kobo-nightmode
[state]
invertActive = no # yes / no
retainStateOverRestart = no # yes / no
[control]
longPressDurationMS = 800 # time in milliseconds to toggle (1000 = 1 second)
debug=no # yes/no to enable/disable debug logging
[nightmode]
refreshScreenPages = 3 #force refresh every X pages
#forceSWInvert = true #force SW invert mode (default: false)
[brightness]
1percentPatch = yes # yes / no : Nickel set brightness to 2% even when on UI it is set to 1%
# this patch will force brightenss to 1% when:
# - it was set to 1%, then it was set to 0% (for instance: stand-by) then changed again to "what Nickel says is 2%"
# - it was set to 3%, then it was set to 1% then changed again to "what Nickel says is 2%"
timeout = 5 # time in seconds, after brightness is set (and maintained) to a given level, to toggle the action set to that level
# switch device off
7 = echo -ne "\xfe\x0f\xc5\x54\xff\x6a\x0d\x00\x01\x00\x74\x00\x01\x00\x00" > /dev/input/event0
# put device in standby
8 = echo -ne "\xf0\x0f\xc5\x54\x3c\xe0\x0d\x00\x01\x00\x74\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\xf1\x0f\xc5\x54\x8e\xe3\x02\x00\x01\x00\x74\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" > /dev/input/event0
# when brightness is set to 11% : special action, toggle night toggleNightMode
11 = toggleNightMode
12 = enableNightMode
13 = disableNightMode
