Hey there,

I'm here since this forum feels like my last resort. Hopefully one of you knows what's going on here.

The problem:
When rebooting or unplugging the device from a PC, the Activity screen forgets about my reading times.

Reading a book for 0,1h shows up in the activity screen, but after rebooting the device this added 0,1h is simply forgotten. I checked the database and the Events rows for opening/closing the book are still there.

I restored my account, went back to factory settings and even did a hard reset. None of it did anything to change this.

Once hard reset I'm back on firmware 4.19. Weird thing is: If I add reading time and afterwards upgrade to 4.34, all the reading time up untill that point is being saved. So rebooting now brings the reading time back to the point after upgrading.

Backstory
I've used Kobo patches without issues except that one time I upgraded to a new patched firmware, without having that version of firmware installed beforehand. A hard reset was necessary to make the device boot up again. It seemed that that fixed everything.

Maybe this did something else with internals that causes this dementia? I found out about a week ago but I'm not sure if I rebooted after this reset and before finding out. It might be connected.

I really hope someone knows what might've caused the issue and how to fix it.
