And did the device restart and do an update when you disconnected after putting the file on the device? Has the file been removed? Is the configuration file in place? Have you changed the configuration options to how you want it to be used. |

The software version is 4.8.11073, is that what you mean by firmware? This is the github link I used: http://dbeinder.github.io/kobo-nightmode/ Yes the device restarted! The first time I did it it actually completely reset itself and I had to redownload my books and set up the reader again. Then when I tried to install nightmode again it just restarted and read ‘updating’ but I got nothing.. What are configuration options? Thank you so much 😊 |

I just realised you don't need a hack if you don't mind nightmode always enabled. You can just enable this in settings (This is working in Glo HD, not sure Glo). Try below.

I updated my GloHD a few weeks ago and installed the old night mode patch again. It didn't work. But I found a way that works "randomly" strange enough. I first slide the left side up accordingly to 100 % (changed the setting to 100 instead) and wait at least 5 s. Nothing happens. But if I then press the little sun icon in the top meny (the other way to adjust the light) and then back, the screen inverts. Sometimes it stays inverted, sometimes it just go back. But if I then turn the device off completely and then on again, it mostly inverts.
Have absolutely no clue why. Sometimes I have to do this several times to get the device to invert. I will try the latest patch to see how this work. Last edited by marp68; 06-11-2018 at 04:58 AM. |

That’s a bit rude to ask me if that’s a serious question when I am asking for help and clearly don’t really know what I am doing as this is quite advanced for my knowledge regarding tech. I thought this was a friendly forum where we could ask questions. This is the page I used: https://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/20...kobo-ereaders/ And no it never mentions anything regarding configuration settings. Thank you for your help. |

It is in this thread about three posts before your first post. In a long running thread like this, it is probably a good idea to read the last couple of pages to see what has been happening.

Has anybody actually tried the latest nightmode version (https://github.com/gtalusan/kobo-nig...ster/installer) on the new Kobo Clara HD? Does it work? I know it's supposed to, but I haven't actually seen a report from anyone who has tested it yet. Many thanks!

Clara HD night mode

I uninstalled it once because I thought it wasn't working but maybe I just wasn't waiting long enough after setting the appropriate brightness? It worked the second time though. |

In my Kobo Glo (recently deceased due to an unfortunate accident), I used the light button, pressing it for a second longer to turn night mode on/off. I got the new Clara HD to replace the Glo and am missing dearly night mode. Thank you in advance for your help. |

I haven't tried this on an Clara since I don't own one but on an Aura One, you still need to force inverted mode in nightmode.ini, the toggles don't seem to work. At one point, this was explained as to how the Aura One handled the brightness levels due to ComfortLight Pro and the auto control. If I'm going to force inverted mode, I might as well just edit Kobo eReader.conf to add the invert setting there. To install nightmode, copy the koboroot.tgz file from the installer directory in the .zip file to the .kobo directory, safe eject and watch your Clara restart and install. Once it is installed, you can edit the nightmode.ini file in the .kobo directory to change the options. Code:

You don't have to force inverted mode on the Clara HD. Just install with the .tgz and it all works. You don't even have to adjust any settings in the .ini file if you don't want different settings. |
