3. Connect over USB and use my firmware page.
4. That's a question for someone else to answer, as I don't use Calibre.
5. I made NickelMenu, which is included in the OCP packages. You'll probably be interested in some of the other features like invert screen, usb connection (since you say you won't be using WiFi much), screen orientation, and so on. You might also be interested in NickelSeries if you read a lot of fiction in series or if you read a lot of nonfiction with subtitles. For the patches, you just read through the files in src and decide which ones you might want to enable. A popular set of patches are the header/footer ones and the line spacing ones. For you, I'd also recommend the "Always show confirmation dialog before upgrading" and "Change Browse Kobo home screen link target - *" patches.
6. I don't use Calibre, but IIRC, it refers to syncing state with the Kobo.
Dictionaries: You can download them manually, but I'll need to know your firmware version to give more details. |
Thank you so much for answering. From searching the forum I found that you're a veteran so I really appreciate you helping me.
1. So I'm gonna stick with the offline. Thank you
2. For some reason it went away automatically. I don't see it when powering off or when device is sleeping
3. I just did
4. No worries. I am thinking of ditching calibre and using your website for firmware plus kepubify
5. Oh wow. Thanks for the answer. I couldn't figure out how to customized NickleMenu correctly but making a config file and adding a single orientation action taught me how to do it. I don't understand what NickelSeries does? Lastly I am just starting so I might stay away from Kobo Patches. Just stick to NickelMenu which is already too Powerful
(and series if I understand what it does correctly).
6. I found out how to download the latest dictionary for latest firmware using
this link.
Thankyou so much for the reponse. One last question, should I backup my sdcard image and how should I go about doing that?
