Problem with kosync

giotti · 12-11-2020, 11:55 AM

Hello, I'm looking for a way to sync my koreader devices.
As far as I understand, there is no way to have a complete sync, but I have to sync each book, one by one. Is it correct?

Even so I have some issues: I have been able to register and push a few data from my JDRead t65s, but I can't pull them on my Pocketbook touch lux 3: koreader is logged in, try to pull but disconnect the wifi and ask to turn it on again, with no effect.

Any help would be very appreciated.

IIRC, this requires a stable and somewhat persistent WiFi connection, something which comes in direct opposition with the aggressive way the PB OS power-manages WiFi.

Someone with a PB and/or someone who actually uses KoSync might be able to give you a more detailed answer, though

It probably requires special PB attention. I don't really understand why they are so aggressive in mere seconds when an e ink device can easily last days even without suspending (or is it the case that a PB can't?)

The wifi is kind of broken, at least in the HD3. It works if enabled in the PB system before starting KO. If the wifi is disabled when KO is started or we disable it manually within KO then it is impossible to enable it again.

I guess other devices are not affected and that's why @ezdiy didn't fix it yet. in fact it's in the to-do list in https://github.com/koreader/koreader...ssue-688600676 as an improvement, not a bug fix.
