Kobo lock screen

Bell_016 · 01-10-2017, 10:22 AM

Hi, today my kobo freezed and I made a hard reset

everything was fine, but when restarting he updated the software to 3.19.5761.

The option to display the cover in full page when sleeping just disappear from the options, now it shows a reduced picture with big white margins and the message deactived above.

I know this is just a esthetic issue, but it bothers me a lot, there is a way to fix this?

That option is still present in firmware 3.19.5761, it is called "Show book covers full screen" in Settings > Sleep and power.

Here is a screenshot from my Glo with firmware 3.19.5761:

Maybe mine is problematic after the hard reset, because the option really disappeared. I wil reset it again and see if it´s fixed

glad to know it not the new firmware, thanks

You don't have a FNAC branded (or a couple of others that are the same) Kobo do you? If you do it will want to show FNAC on the cover screen and won't let you use full screen cover. Fortunately if you go into your config file and change affiliate to "Kobo" it will allow you to go back to full screen.
