For what it matters, the firmware got pushed to me over wifi this morning (I'd downgraded when it got pulled). The update popup appeared while I was reading, which was a bit annoying, lol.

That's why you keep WiFi off.

It works for the Libra 2.

I am usually off Wi-Fi. I have the "Automatic Sync" turned off. I thought that this meant I could reject software updates. Is there a way to actually reject software updates even when syncing Pocket articles?

The new firmware has a bug in the Search inside book function on the Kobo Sage. I searched the word inside the book, it showed me all 40 instances of the word. When I pressed the X in the bottom right corner, it didn't register it as pressing that button, but just as pressing the screen to advance to the next page. I had a heck of a time getting out of that screen to start reading my book again.

I wish KOReader played nicely with MTP connections. I am using a KOReader Sync plug-in to get my annotations into Calibre organized in the notes section of each individual eBook, but it doesn't work on the Android e-ink readers, so I end up exporting TXT or HTML annotation text. Then I would consider getting rid of the Kobo.

There are a couple of patches that look as if one or the other might help you:
  • Block WiFi firmware upgrade
  • Always show confirmation dialog before upgrading

On both the Libra Color and a Libra H2O the exit button is the back arrow in the top left of the screen. Bottom right is a forward arrow for next.
