Hi,
I just tried the plugin (on 2.1.6 r44084) : -clock works but is quickly replaced by % of reading -chapter works with kepub book on main memory, but not with epub book on sd card. -wishlist is still displayed in homepage -discover is still discover in homepage By the way, would you share the sources of the plugin that I have a piece of code to start with ? Thanks |

The plugin is developed for the Kobo Touch. I don't know if there are any Layout (GUI Changes) in the Glo which could render this plugin useless. |

This explains a lot.
So far all features work quite well on a Touch. It seems Kobo has changed the Layout a little bit for the Glo especially on the homescreen. I'll push the code to my repository this weekend. Maybe you can adapt it for the glow. A good starting point would be to get gui elements on the homescreen using ah's qtscript plugin. If I could send me this output I can try to adjust the plugin so that it works with the Glow. |

Hi there, newbie here. Just purchased a Kobo Glo and started following this forum.
First of all thanks for your work on the Kobo! Here's a visual clue of what happens to the Glo interface while using your plugin. Clearly the light intensity slider gets in the clock's way, or the other way around: 1. Screen light off 2. Screen light on: This is an epub file I'm reading. I am on FW 2.1.5. By the way, the big bars on the top and bottom of the screen do not disappear when going to the next page, as they usually do (at least the top bar does). I have to go to <home> first, again open the file I'm reading and then the bars disappear. Last edited by joostjodel; 10-25-2012 at 02:14 PM. Reason: (added extra info) |

Just another thank you here. My KT with 2.1.5 is running your enhancements nicely. I really like it - especially the clock.

Curses - I installed this plugin on my Kobo Touch (2.1.5) - got the Processing screen, I powered it off, on again, went into Library, opened a book, went back to my home screen - and nothing happened.
I'm wondering if this could be because I've got one of the "dud" Australian devices, the ones that have had such major issues with accepting firmware upgrade in the past? |

There shouldn't be a problem loading this. The issue for these devices is the code in the original firmware. This gets replaced after the later firmware and will work from no on. |

Just for the heck of it, I even backed everything up, did a factory reset, did a manual upgrade to 2.1.5 - I then copied over a single book, and the plugin, and nothing. Re-installed telnet, and the file is definitely there, and nickel output what I posted above - hopefully something simple is going on, and we'll figure it out here before too long |

Good news! I did it again, and this time it seems to have worked. Maybe I munged something the first time (though I think I just did it the same way), or maybe it needed twice to take, or something else.
The changes are terrific - thankyou! Now if only Kobo will bring back a home-screen shortlist (or, better, shelf of the user's choice), I'll be happy. One small suggestion - it might be a good idea to update the first post in this thread with the more current plugin versions? Thanks. |
