I followed the concept of KoboCloud to create a project named KoboPageTurner. You could use Wi-Fi to turn pages on your Kobo devices.

Source Code

https://github.com/tylpk1216/KoboPageTurner

Usage

Run KoboServer/makeKoboRoot.sh to get KoboRoot.tgz or you could use release version.
Put KoboRoot.tgz to .kobo folder of your Kobo device.
Reboot device.
Check "ForceWifiOn" item.
Turn on Wi-Fi on Kobo device. The Web Server will run on port 80.
Use Android(HTTP Request Shortcuts) to send HTTP request.
Use three API to control the Web Server.
- GET /left -> left page.
- GET /right -> right page.
- GET /exit -> shutdown the Web Server.
After closing the Web Server, uncheck "ForceWifiOn" item. Then turn off Wi-Fi.
