I got screenshots! Again!

I'll only be showing differences between this and firmware 4.23.15505. As such, click here to see the rest of the changes in this release.

This firmware release is a bugfix release, and I've only noticed the following:

Kobo forgot to include release notes in this release. Well, now they did!
- However, only 3 out of my 4 Kobo e-readers show the release notes for this release:
  - Clara HD (OTA updated)
  - Glo HD (sideloaded update file)
  - Aura (second) (sideloaded update file)
- The only one that seems to be displaying release notes for 4.22 instead of 4.23 is my first Aura (EDIT 2: sideloaded update file too), which is on the regular "kobo" affiliate like my Glo HD and Clara HD are, while my second Aura is on the Indigo Books affiliate ("KoboIndigo"), which I'm certain doesn't include a custom update channel.
Scrollbars have been tweaked.
- They now have arrow buttons!
- However, I still miss the "Go to page" prompt, and wish Kobo would bring that back and make it accessible by tapping on the scroll head without holding down and/or dragging.

I've decided to only show the revised scrollbar.

Don't mind the time displayed, as I'm very much a "night" person! However, if you're wondering why the clock is in 24-hour time in my screenshots, I followed someone else's suggestion on another thread that showed how to switch the date formats from US to UK so that I can get 24-hour time and day before month in dates. I still wish this was an officially supported feature, or at least accessible from the "Beta Features" menu.
