Not officially supported but it does work without any issues I have seen that have not already been mentioned on supported devices.

Hi Trinity1,

Which model of Glo : HD or not ?

Do you use Night Mode ( https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...2162&page=9999 ) ?

I have 3.16 on my Glo (non HD) and my Glo HD. Works fine for both. Both are patched, but don't have night mode on either.

FW 3.15.0 brought ghosting in particular when we have got boxes on screen (when we call dictionnaries for example).

Is it better with this version 3.16.0 ?

Nope, it is at least the same, but the LeanAndMean setting doesn't work anymore so it is even more terrible when not used in a Glo HD. (the Carta screens have it a bit less,but it is still there)

I hope the 3.16.1 will bring us an issue, it's a very big bug !

Do we know where does it come from ?

POTENTIAL BUG?

Well I just had a unique experience with my Aura H20 where the battery depleted completely under normal use. But upon recharging to a level that allowed the device to turn on it came back on saying the SD Card was unrecognized and needed to be formatted with Fat32. This was odd as the menu screen showing indicated that the card was recognized.... (indicated by the book covers of current reads etc showing.) So I powered down and rebooted the unit and a second time this msg showed up.

Current firmware installed is Mark 4 3.16.0 patched with the current patches used in this forum.
any one else have a similar issue as yet ?

regards

Jack

Jack,

this is quite similar to what I had happen with my Aura HD a while back. Pulling the SD card out has fixed the battery issue and the complaining. The card would not work anywhere after that, including not being able to format. The only thing I don't know is whether the card was defective from the get go (although it worked briefly after I first inserted it) or whether Kobo has killed it. I haven't tried another card in it since.

Well the card works, its a good card as far as things go. I think this issue is related to the firmware not the hardware/memory cards. Its mostly unlikely that kobo would kill the card... but it could happen (just really remote).I would send your card back to the manufacture if possible for warranty as it would be my guess your card was bad from the get go. That said, there are issues at work here, for how many, and how often that's not yet known.

In retrospect I probably should have sent it in, but it seemed like a lot of hassle at the time, so I just threw it away. I agree that the likelihood of Kobo being at fault is very low.

Hope you figure out what's causing you trouble with yours!
