Same happened to me when downgrading from 2.6.1 to 2.4.0. Finally, I was able to do a factory reset. The problem was that I had to try several times to power the device off. Even holding the power slider for 20 seconds didn't show any effect.

Hi Yoq,

Have you found the reason why "night mode" doesn't work with FW 2.6.1 ?

Thanks for this reply Tshering, I thought that the problem was only with night mode function, I hadn't seen that the problem came of kobotweaks !

Now I think YOQ is wainting a functional version of toolchain before to try to do something. Maybe night mode will be ok directly with this "toolchain" !

Don't know about Tweaks, but KoboLauncher for standalone Qt apps works now on 2.6.1.
Still nightmode doesn't :S

Does it mean that the others old tweaks run now? for exemple :

1-Start=tweaks.sleep()
2-Stop=tweaks.powerOff()
3-Restart=tweaks.executeSystemCmd(\"/bin/busybox reboot\")
4-Recompenses=tweaks.readingLife()
5-WiFi=tweaks.connectWifi()
... or others that you had chosen...

except :
6-Toggle%20Night%20Mode=tweaks.executeSystemCmd(\"/mnt/onboard/.kobo/nightmode.sh\")

If you try to press light button during 2 secondes, night mode doesn't work anyway?

I hope that Yoq and Kevinshort will quickly find a solution for adapt their version of night mode to firmware 2.6.1 (and explain how install all the old tweaks with night mode if now we don't use "kobotweaks.ini" like we did).

Nb : I repeat, I'm french, so sorry for my bad english, I hope you understand what I'm writing !

Sorry this took so long, too many deadlines set on last Friday...

This new version should now work with 2.6+ and older firmwares (It worked for me on 2.1.5, but be careful). The support for older firmwares is more of an accident, so I recommend to upgrade.

The code and a short description is now on github: http://yox.github.io/kobo-nightmode/


Technical info:
Quote:
Turned out to be nothing more than compiling with the new toolchain, as for some reason Kobo decided to switch to hard-float ABI. Interestingly, old firmwares load the hardfp version, but new firmwares refuse the old softfp version without any error message at all. That is why I first suspected Kobo to have removed/locked LD_PRELOAD. Also the update process via udev had to be tweaked a little to work on 2.6.1.

I don't think it needs to be changed, if it doesn't work like it did on the older firmware there is some other problem.

thanks yok, I used to use the tweaks, so I had never tried. I simply moved your script under the launcher directory and modified the kobo_launcher.ini file with
Code:
nightmode = nightmode.sh
and it works - thanks a million!

EDIT: I should add: the above works if you move nightomode.sh in the Kobolauncher subdirectoyr. Otherwise the command must be
Code:
nightmode = /mnt/onboard/.kobo/nightmode.sh /mnt/onboard
