Critical Error You didn't synchronize your reader

Hi,

I've been successfully using my Kobo Nia reader for some months without any issue. I decided to bypass the registration process at first boot and everything went fine. I followed the tips found here and on other websites about how to modify the database and it worked well.
I'm using Ubuntu, my kobo nia firmware version seems to be 4.1.15 (the .kobo/kobo/version file indicates 4.1.15,4.23.15525,4.1.15,4.1.15).

I accidentally disconnected the user session and went back to the default loading screen (asking to activate wifi or download the kobo desktop app). After some struggles to remind how to modify my own user table which contains 26 rows, I was able to reach the main menu.

There I had the following error message

Critical Error
You didn't synchronize your reader. Underlined text, notes and your reading progression won't be saved. Disconnect
If I choose disconnect I loop back to the default loading screen and the same process goes on over and over. If I close the error message, no icon on the reader will work : I neither can access the parameters nor any other tab. I can't open a book or do anything else.

What I tried so far that didn't change anything (I'm quite desperate) :

- Deleting all my books
- In the database's user table, changing the IsLibraryMigrated value to true.
- Default everything (except userID, UserKey, UseDisplayName and UserEmail ) to NULL or FALSE
- Doing a Hard reset and editing the new database's user table to bypass registration again. The error message is still there
- Trying to active Sideloaded mode modifying in the configuration file (SideloadedMode=true), but it doesn't work. Looks like my firmware doesn't support it.

Maybe I should suppress the .kobo folder, but I don't want to break the device. If possible I would like not to update the firmware, just go back to basic factory defaults and suppress this error message.

Could someone help me please I'm quite desperate.
