I goofed around before that to try to get the build that uses the brightness to toggle to work, and had no luck. Was using full-time nightmode inversion until my Kobo updated and I was back to square one. ![]() |

I don't use calibre, so no crash. It does seem to be much laggier than before, and the battery lasts for a much shorter time, but that might be due to not inverting the screen all the time.

I'm on a H2O Edition 1 with firmware 3.19.5761 and KSM 07 and I think I have by now tried every patch and method in this thread and none of them works. Not the slider and not the png file and not the "invertActive=yes" in .kobo/nightmode.ini (they just have no effect) and not the "nickelpreload="root/screeInv.so" in KSM [nickel] section (this freezes Nickel after it loads to home screen).
Is there some other way? |

Nightmode updated for SLL CPU devices
The new devices use a newer CPU. The existing nightmode hacks will not work with these CPUs. There is an update to the hack to support these CPUs. This is at https://github.com/gtalusan/kobo-nig...r/KoboRoot.tgz.
This should work for all Kobo devices. It will be needed for the Clara HD and the updated Aura Edition 2 and Aura H2O Edition 2 devices. The latter can be identified for by a "2" in the seventh character of the serial number. For the other devices, it should work with all firmware versions starting with 4.2.8283. Other than the update to support the new CPUs, there is no change to the hack. Installation and changing the mode works as before. Note: I have not tested this. I do not have one of the newer devices to try it on, and do not normally use the mode at all. But, the source for the update is very reliable. |

The (relevant to our usecase) iMX5/6/7 series *all* have an integrated eInk controller (i.e., the SoC on most of your eInk readers always had one).

I believe the SLL is an update to the SL or SoloLite. See https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/applicat...te/AN11988.pdf

I bought a Clara HD yesterday and so far it seems quite speedy.
I sideloaded 400 or so epubs and the processing time on the device was less than a minute. |

Night Mode Won't Work After Installation
Hi!
I have followed all the instructions (I think) and still cannot get night mode to work on my Kobo Glo. I copied and pasted the koboroot.tgz in the .Kobo file on my reader, ejected my reader and it restarted and everything but still I cannot get the night mode to turn on. When I hold down the light button it just turns the backlight on and off. Please help! I'm trying to read in bed at night but the backlight wakes up my partner so I am really hoping I can get this to work! Cheers ![]() |
