Not quite right. Kobo hides modes that the hardware does not fully support. If you don't have the gyroscope, rotating the ereader doesn't work out of the box. If you don't have the waveform support, dark mode can be iffy.

You can enable rotation on older Kobo by adding:

Code:
[DeveloperSettings]
ForceAllowLandscape=true
and putting your Kobo into developer mode (search for devmodeon to enable, search for devmodeoff to disable). The search does not return any results.
