Maybe it's book-dependent, but chapter progress doesn't seem to work anymore on Aura One: books progress is shown instead.

Are you reading an epub or a kepub? Chapter progress only works for kepubs.

And one other thing to check--there's a setting to show either chapter progress or book progress--make sure that didn't get accidently toggled to "book" in the settings menu.

Looks like I got used to that feature in kepubs and didn't notice it was missing from epubs. Thanks. Seems like a silly omission though.

I can confirm that the repeated update loop on the Aura ONE is fixed, the OTA update now works as expected and my wife's Aura ONE upgraded successfully to version 4.8.11073.

It’s right about now that I really miss the physical buttons I had on my Sony PRS-T1! 😉
On T1 swipe to turn page was great because you could swipe up, down or left, right from left or right side. Also tap screen next to left or right side of screen to turn page foward or back.

What affiliate should be in the file (also I've forgotten which file!) for update to be "seen"?

It's not an omission. Kobo uses Adobe's RMSDK to display epub books. (Note: I'm glad they do, as it's RMSDK that enables library loans to my Kobo.) RMSDK doesn't implement that feature.

Kobo uses its own display engine for kepubs. They've added several features there, which is straightforward to do, as they control the software.

So it's not that Kobo neglected to implement something: it's that they can't implement changes to RMSDK. That's Adobe's department.

I thought that Kobo used Readium, not "their own display engine"?

And as far as not being able to implement changes to RMDSK, maybe they don't have to, and could still get the functionality; it looks like all the info is there, it may just be a little harder to get than a simple API call.

Do I assume that the new "hold the bottom corner" feature to flick quickly through the pages is something specific to kepub? It doesn't seem to work for on epubs.

The two renderers are Adobe's RMSDK (compability with Adobe DRM) and ACCESS's Netfront BookReader (epub3 and Japanese typography). Oddly Tolino's firmware has some Readium code but anytime I open an epub3 on an Tolino epos, I get a popup warning me the book may not display properly. It is possible that this may be used in future for their implementation of TEA's DRM (based on Readium's LCP).
