I have just made a very interesting observation about firmware 4.31 that I think can explain the issues people have been reporting. I connected my Kobo to my Linux computer and navigated to the .kobo folder very soon thereafter in my desktop file browser. I saw some temporary sqlite files appear in the file list, then disappear without my doing anything. My only conclusion here, the Kobo had not finished unmounting the user partition before allowing the computer to mount it.

Edit: That might not be the whole story, hoiwever. I can see the same thing happening after revering to 4.30,, but at least now I don't have to re-boot the kobo for the database to update properly again.

Edit 2: I had Calibre open. That was responsible for creating then deleting the temp files as part of it'sscanning books on device. Sorry for the noise.
