Although Kobo has withdrawn from the german speaking market due to its cooperation with Tolino, I suppose it is not possible to apply Kobo patches to Tolino, which is very sad, as the patches are really useful. Is there any way to apply some similar improvement?
Sorry if the questions should be silly, but this situation is new to me!
The Tolino Shine 3 is the same hardware as the Kobo Clara HD. The Tolino runs Android and there's no way to put the Kobo firmware on it. As for the patches, that's a no. Tolino does not do KePub. It does do ePub.

Given that Tolino uses Android, you may be able to install KOReader or other 3rd party reading apps. The problem however is that most 3rd party Android reading apps are rubbish. KOReader is a good one.
