Taking simple notes in the notebooks and books also feels snappier, and it feels like it does not refresh the whole page when you write something. If you erase something, it does refresh the whole page. I truly don't remember if that was the way before, but it is a good exp.

The charging light indicator now it is working. As mentioned before, it works if the device is on sleep.

Anyone can give more information about the sync to all devices? Is it syncing the annotations now?

If I may, what I would like to see next:
- Be able to write notes in a note section (don't need a proper side by side yet)
- Be able to write notes on any format (I am looking at you sideloaded kepub)
- Even faster writing experience
- Upload and sync sideloaded books (if that is just on dropbox, I am fine!)

You can write on sideloaded kepub, have it working on my Sage and Elipse.

Though it shouldn't be necessary, I'll gladly trade (temporarily) the charging light for increased battery life and the other improvements.

It does not work if you power the reader down and restart it.

The LED indicator light function just does not work - at least on the Sage.
Are you taalking about the white led? Seems to be working fine here (Sage), charging for a few mins now (sage in sleepmode) and the light is still white? Not sure how it should work though.

Also, percentage seems to be updating properly now. Believe in the previous one I had to wake the sage for it to update. (Or it at least refreshed waaaaaay less often)

Yes - the white led goes on for about 5 seconds and then turns off on my Sage. The update percentage bug seems to be fixed. It updates the sleep screen as often as it did before the 4.30 firmware.

All in all the good seems to outweigh the bad with this update in spite of the continuing LED bug. Using the Sideload mode opens up a ton of possibilities for users who do not wish to register their Kobos.

You may not want to go back as the new firmware is supposed to have better battery life then previous. I suggest you give this enough time to test the battery life.

I can select them, but the same font as publisher standard is always displayed.

Has anyone else this problem?
I can confirm it. After updating to the new firmware 4.31.19086, I can no longer use any sideloaded fonts.

Guess that makes two people. I only read kepubs and sideloaded fonts seem to work fine on my Glo HD. But I can also chime in and say that I get the same behavior with epubs (so now three people). Most built in fonts seem to work fine, but Avenir Next is also weird for me.

There's something else for the reason.

Same here: epub only + side loaded fonts ( otf, ttf ) just work fine on my Libra H20.

I deleted the system fonts. With the same fonts that I have installed, everything is fine.
It is the system fonts that do not work. This should be highlighted.

Well, if people want to try to replicate what I did, I was using DomesticExtremis' EPUB Feature Peeker. I have an epub copy as-is, and a kepub made using kepubify. The kepub seems to work fine, but I get font issues with the epub version.

Maybe it also has to do with epub2 vs epub3 (the one above is an epub2)?

Installed and patched 4.31.19086 on my Clara. I only read kepub.

Ran through Nickel, Bookerley, Chareink and Literata Book. All seem fine, advanced font controls are available for system and sideloaded fonts.
