ADE authorizing ereader through phone

Hi

Does anyone know a way to ADE authorize a Kobo device through an android phone?

If I don't have my laptop with me I would still like to be able to borrow library books (or buy books) directly to my phone and transfer it to my device on the go.

At this point I have used an OTG cable which let me connect my Kobo device to the phone as a removable storage. It works fine to just move non DRM protected books to the device a read them.

But how to proceed with DRM protected library books (or bought books) where the ereader first need to be authorized with ADE?

At this point I can sign in to my local library on my phone (Samsung S5), download the the DRM protected book to phone and open it in ADE or Bluefire after authorizing my phone with the Adobe ID.

But to be able to transfer it to ereader (manually or through app) and being able to read it, I must first authorize the ereader.

The ADE on the phone only lets me authorize the phone itself, but not an external device as with the ADE on the laptop.

So, any solution or ideas?
