My Kobo Forma generally works great. (& I have a new and increased appreciation for all of its features now that I'm acquainting myself with an Onyx Note 2; the bigger screen is interesting, but Kobo's reading features fare outstrip the Onyx device, IMHO. The device even feels relatively fast now -- while I thought it sluggish before!)

But one thing that I can't seem to get rid of is, is the interminable sync. It just won't complete its syncing.

It's not that it doesn't communicate with the store. If I buy a book or add it to my collection from Kobo Plus (usually on my desktop), as soon as I connect the Forma, the book is downloaded and I can read it. But the sync icon doesn't stop churning and i never seem to get the message 'sync completed' anymore.

And I do have to remember to switch off wifi every time I've downloaded a book, since apparently the device will otherwise start to try and sync spontaneously during the night or some such and drain my battery while doing so. Since it seems to be interminable.

Do Kobo still have no solution for this? Surely they could build in something that prevents this from happening?
