Sorry for ressurecting an old topic, but I accidentally reset my kobo an would really want to get my reading hours stat back. From the info I've been able to dig out the only method that (once) worked was to use the kobopatch to make it so that every time you finished a book it added some amount of hours to total reading time.

Code:

Manipulate reading stats:
  - Enabled: yes
  - Description: Always add 10 hours to the reading time every time you close a book.
  # in EventEngine::endReadingSession(*Volume) when recording end of reading session stats, change QDateTime::secsTo calls to a fixed value
  - ReplaceBytes: {Offset: 0x4D53A0, FindBLX: 0x425270, ReplaceH: 4F F6 FF 70} # MOV  r0, #65535
  - ReplaceBytes: {Offset: 0x4D53C0, FindBLX: 0x425270, ReplaceH: 4F F6 FF 70} # MOV  r0, #65535

This doesn't work on current firmware version. Did a search for 0x425270 (4FF766EF) with no results in libnickel.so.1.0.0 file.

Is there a way to make this work on the 4.38 update? Or did they change something that makes this impossible to do anymore?
