Also, instead of the current book cover, you can have the lock screen display images you place in a certain folder: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=321609
You may not want to switch the affiliate to Kobo. Change to beta or bestbuyca or walmartca. Having Kobo as the affiliate wil not allow you to sync the new 4.19.14123 firmware just yet. Any of the other three will allow a firmware sync.
