Depends first of all on where you put it (you should be preventing Nickel from scanning hidden folders on that FW version, for instance), and then on how you're expecting Nickel to figure out there's new content (it will not sideload new stuff unless an USBMS session is triggered), so if you're just exiting from KOReader to Nickel, or even rebooting the device, Nickel won't see it.

(I'm actually mildly intrigued that stuff downloaded via the browser gets picked up. Might be worth looking into for interested parties).
