No, this is really old backup on my workstation from a Sage.

StylusUseageDetected, what are you saying this has to do with WiFi?
I'm saying it's irrelevant to WiFi or updates.
It will be true if when you tap on battery icon and it tells you Pen stylus.

NotebookSyncToken had changed, I would say it wasnt NULL anymore after you synced.
I think that doesn't make it work, no matter what value it is.


What I'm saying is I've 20+ years SQL experience, a gazzillion years experience UNIX, Linux and embedded systems, built gadgets. Literally have the greybeard. AND I had a working one beside a new one that could register Kobo, could download dictionaries but couldn't download the Notebook resources because the server was off-line.

I had in the end to copy EVERYTHING, and it took WiFi being on and 2 extra reboots to get it working.

My opinion is the four zip files and whatever database settings might be needed isn't enough. Unless Kobo changes the FW I can't see how a manual setup can work.

It's probably per devices licensed software. The only free version is an even more cut down demo on iOS. So probabily designed that the Kobo has to have a "conversation" with server(s) as well as copy & inflate files to user partition.

The settings in Kobo eReader.conf in .kobo/Kobo are probably irrelevant to getting it working, just last user choices.

Can you confirm, LastUsedHighligtherColor
This is no surprise:
1) My original 2016 Kobo did screen shots in full colour. Likely it's all colour software apart from screen driver.
2) The MyWrite Nebo on iOS and Android is in glorious True Colour. The app started as an iOS app.
3) The version on Kobo is horribly cut down and crippled so it works on eink, but likely they didn't deliberately remove colour code even on Sage and Elipsa.
4) Colour in ebooks, png, PDF etc is mapped to just 16 levels.
